Planning the

ideal bedroom for your child Your children will spend a considerable amount of time in their bedroom. Therefore, it is vital to create a comfortable environment, in which your child can play, relax, and even work.

W

hen planning a new bedroom, it is essential to keep in mind that children grow rapidly, and before you know it, your child will become a teenager.

Because of this, creating a space that your child can grow into is of utmost importance.

What are the three key ingredients for a successful kid’s/teen’s bedroom?

Storage, study space and a play/chill area!

Bedrooms in most modern apartments are normally restricted in size. No matter the age of the child, having a sufficient amount of storage will always be an issue, be it for the toys and games of a child or the books and files of a teenager.

The Mundo Joven range offers

various solutions on how to utilize and maximise the wall space available, using furniture such as: • Corner wardrobes • Bridge storage units • Under bed storage • Shelving units The study area, even if comprising of just a desk, is a must in every child’s bedroom. Therefore, the desk must be designed in a way which makes the study area as comfortable as possible.

In the Mundo Joven catalogue, one will find a variety of different desks to suit all spaces.

A play zone for young children, or a chilling area for the older teens, can be created by placing a small armchair in the room and a small unit for a TV/monitor and game console, creating a small living area for your child to enjoy alone or even with friends. In con-

fined spaces, one can also use the divan bed as a seating area. Since every child is different, it is possible to completely personalise your room by using the wide range of wood and solid colours Mundo Joven has to offer.

Finally, finishing off the room with suitable flooring will give the room colour, character and a clean surface. This will complete the room, thus creating a truly practical yet aesthetically pleasing area.

Quick-step flooring offers a full range of laminate or vinyl floors that will suit every room for a lifetime of enjoyment.

Heading for the best bargains Sales, special offers, three for two giveaways, we’re always on the lookout for the next big one.

A

lthough online shoppers can find bargains all the year round, we still cannot resist The Sales. We may no longer see people gathering in long queues, four-deep, hours before opening time and sharpening their elbows on each other in the attempt to bag a bargain. But the lure of huge, red reduction signs on shop windows is as strong as ever. Clutching Christmas gift vouchers and monetary presents, shoppers are dying to exchange them and the idea of stretching their value further is irresistible.

Sales are the best reason, or excuse, to make those longed for changes to your home. Huge reductions in everything from furniture and fittings to whole new kitchens and bathrooms can make a dream idea a reality.

And by not just thinking of what we can use now, but also

of what we will need later in the year, we have a chance to replace things like garden furniture well before summer begins.

In fact, the best sales values are in the usefulness and longevity of whatever you buy. Think very hard about whether the attractiveness of an item is its appearance and price or the fact that it is something you have long wanted and needed but could not necessarily afford, unless the price was drastically reduced.

If it is not something you really love it’s not worth buying however much has been knocked off the price.

Whether you are considering clothes or curtain material, ask yourself if you would by it if it was not a sale item.

And remember, if clothes and shoes are not your size, paying up to 70% less won’t magic them into a perfect fit.

You will be left with something you really cannot use, and whatever you spent will have been wasted. And stick to classics, in shades you know suit you, and you will be buying for the long term and not just on impulse.

To gain the best from the sales go on a few recces in you

favourite store before they begin and note the things that catch your eye. By focusing on certain items you will not be drawn into a dumb deal. If you need a new household item or to replace bedding, towels and soft furnishings, it’s not too difficult to wait for the sales. And the money you save will mean you can buy more, or upgrade your choices.

And remember, shopping in good quality shops where the prices are reduced to the equivalent of what you might normally spend without a sale reduction will offer the best value and give you a better bargain in the long run.

Finally, when you are buying clothes and shoes from retailers and brands you are not familiar with, always try them on. Fillings and sizes of even basic items can vary a lot, and some places may not change items bought in a sale. And remember your customer rights, but always check what terms and conditions each outlet has for the return of items bought on sale.
