beautiful wedding setup

What a nice tropical setting for a wedding ceremony!

say i do
Last time, renewal of wedding vows was one of the topics among my online friends. And like them, I wanted to have our own renewal of wedding vows too. Next year, it will be our 10th wedding anniversary and if plans push through we may have a simple celebration. It would be a dream come true for me if we can have the above tropical setting too, hehe… anyway, for this year I’m looking forward we can have a family vacation as we celebrate our 9th year. Hopefully a beach getaway for us.

Save water, Save Money

low flow toilet
Apart from saving money on the utility bill, saving water helps prevent water pollution in nearby lakes and local watersheds. And with our own little way of saving water at home makes a big contribution in the community for new green lifestyle. Maybe not everyone knows it but one of the appliances that use a lot of water to do their dirty work is the toilet. :) I have read in an article that flushing a toilet accounts for 14 percent of the water used both inside and outside a home. That’s why Low- Flow toilets were introduced for less consumption of water per flush. And that is one of the characteristics of the Dual Flush Toilets saw in the market today.

dual_flush_toilet_demoWith dual flush toilet, you save thousands of gallons of water per year without sacrificing the performance. Some of the benefits are:

• Empowers every consumer to save water
• Lowers water and sewage bills
• Saves 7 million gallons of water per thousand installations per year*
• Extends the life of higher water consumption toilets saving landfill space
• Can enhance solid flush performance
• Reduces impact on municipal sewage treatment systems and saves energy
• Alleviates strained capacity on water treatment plants
• Reduces impact on septic systems
• Provides a powerful and positive impact on our environment

You don’t need to buy a new one or dump your old toilet. Just convert it to a dual flush toilet and you may start reducing your water consumption and not flushing away as much money on water bills… ;)

Welcome 2010

Happy_New_Year

Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right. All the best for 2010 …. :D

Space saver Bathroom suite

bathroom suite
Compared with our two previous apartments where we only have small bathrooms, today we have a little bigger one something similar with the space saver Bathroom Suite photo above. That was one reason why I agreed to move with our present house because of the nice bathroom, plus my son loves the compact shower bath included. :)

I believe this type of bath suite is really ideal for small houses. Space is very limited yet you still have the style. Most of the old houses having renovation, I noticed the owners do bathroom makeover to fit with the new trends. That’s an added feature and I’m sure a lot of people looking for a new house to rent would love to have contemporary style of bathroom.

This type of bath suite may be a little pricey so it’s better to grab during the time of sale. And as we speak, there is a actually a clearance sale for bathroom suite, which I chanced upon at betterbathrooms.com. They have a variety of branded items that I’m sure fit with your budget. So if you are one of homeowners wanted to have a bathroom renovation then this is the time to pick your choice of bath suite.

Happy Holidays!

Lovely couple!

Well, I guess a lot of ladies would like to have a beach wedding too (count me in!). However due to budget constraint it didn’t happen like that but have the honeymoon at the beach instead… and I think that’s more romantic and a beautiful experience for the couple.

And during this time there is an Adults Only All Inclusive Vacations package already that’s indeed perfect for honeymoon or let’s say celebrate wedding anniversaries… it will be a nice relaxing getaway for the couple and a great bonding time together. If you want to know more about location like this, you may visit www.karismahotels.com. You’ll be able to see other photos of the place and most likely will be your dream destination.
