Living Room Designing a new
Planning is first and foremost when designing your new living room. Keep the following in mind and you’ll be enjoying your new space for years to come. Focal Point
Windows, fireplace or a media unit with a TV.
Keep Furniture Away from Walls Provides breathing room and can actually make the space look bigger.
Create Conversation Areas
• Key to any living space. • Sofas and chairs should face each other. • Larger rooms may need multiple conversation areas.
The Right Size Rug
Ensure that the rug is big enough so that all the furniture can be placed on the rug.
Tables
• Big coffee tables work as an anchor in the room but can be functional as well – to display accessories, for entertaining and even as storage. 6
SomethingBlue-WeddingGuide-TodaysBride-V1.indd 6
• Ensure there is enough space around the coffee table to move around it easily. • All tables should be within arm’s length to be used comfortably.
Lighting
• An important element to any room. • Use a variety of formats including overhead, table and floor lamps. • Lighting placed at various levels provides the proper balance and distribution of light.
Artwork
• Artwork should be in proportion to the furniture around it. • Many people make the mistake of hanging pieces that are too small. • When hanging art behind a sofa it should extend 2/3 the length of the sofa.

Towels 101
Everything you need to know about choosing the perfect towel, and creating your very own spa oasis at home.
Material Overview • Egyptian Cotton: High grade cotton fibers; 1-1/8 to 1-1/2 inches in length. Grown exclusively in the Nile River Valley in Egypt.
• Micro Cotton: Extra long staple length
cotton. The cotton yarns are woven with PVA yarns to withstand the stress and strain of weaving and strengthen the zero twist yarns. Produces zero twist with better durability and less lint. A zero twist towel is loftier and more absorbent.

• Pima Cotton: Name originated from
the native Pima Indian of Arizona, where the fiber was first grown. Long staple cotton yarns averaging 1-3/8 to 1-5/8 in length.

developed and grown in the southwest by certified members of the Supima Association of America. Supima stands for Superior Pima. Produces a very soft towel using the 1-3/8 extra long fibers uniform in length.

We know you will love it or we’ll exchange it within a year of purchase. Conditions apply. See in-store or sears.ca for details. Exceptional quality. Sensibly priced. Approved by Sears.
Loops & Weaves A towel’s construction is made up of loops within the weave. These loops in the surface of the fabric absorb moisture. The number of loops determines the drying ability. The greater the loop number, the higher the absorbency.
Drying This ability is also measured by a towel’s thickness. Towels constructed with loops of thick yarns are more absorbent. How the loop is twisted also affects absorbency. “Zero twist” towels makes for a soft hand and unique feel. “Soft twist” gives the towel softness and hand of a “zero twist,” but gives the towel more durability than a “zero twist.”
Quality & Price The weight, size and type of cotton affect both the quality and price of a towel. Fiber content determines the price and value depending on the grade of cotton used. The hand (feel) of the towel is important because the softer and thicker it is, the higher perceived value.

Editor-in-chief of Style at Home
Play with Pattern
Just because the duvet or comforter set boasts an eyecatching floral print doesn’t mean that your sheets have to be plain. We opted for a muted pattern that’s smaller in scale in gradients of grey.
Switch it Up
Experiment with accent cushions that complement the scheme – a hint of texture shows that you’re not afraid to play with pattern, but won’t overwhelm the impressionistic Westmount print.
Make it Fluffy
The beauty of a comforter or a duvet is that making the bed takes barely any effort – just pull the cover up, fold the top down and go!
Have it Match
A floor-length bed skirt that matches your headboard completes the look, showing that you considered each and every detail.
Add a Bench
Style at Home Down Alternative Duvet with Luxurious Duragel Fill DBL/QN ITEM # 96 72223 King size also available.
A small bench at the foot of the bed is the perfect punctuation to any bedroom, not to mention a great spot to pull your slippers on and off.
