Syracuse, NY (PRWEB) April 01, 2012

Healthy Living is drawing an enthusiastic crowd to the New York State Fair Grounds April 15, as the 12th Annual Health and Wellness Expo brings holistic devotees from across the U.S. and Canada to the Onondaga Lake venue to experience the latest in organics and wellness through natural living. Visitors planning to attend the event have already begun booking accommodations for private vacation rental cabins and homes in the Syracuse area to be close to the venue and avoid high cost hotels according to Liz Ernst of New York Vacation Rentals.

April is a favorite time for vacationing in the Finger Lakes, as spring brings the earliest campers and anglers of the season to the region. The Health and Wellness Expo is a great excuse for a weekend getaway, and travelers are taking to the New York Vacation Rentals website in increasing numbers to book their Finger Lakes weekend getaway lodgings.

Shopping for vacation rentals in the Finger Lakes region is easy with NYvacationrentals.com, which offers plenty of new listings for visitors coming for one night, the weekend, or a week. In addition to the Health Expo, visitors can enjoy the areas acclaimed vineyards and wineries, spring antiquing, and plenty of outdoor recreation, The Finger Lakes region enjoys a steady number of travelers from spring through fall who are looking for more than just a hotel room when they arrive. Vacation home owners from Syracuse to Rochester and south are making their properties available to families and groups of friends looking to rent a Finger Lakes vacation rental cabin or bungalow close to the Health Expo venue.

These private vacation rentals sleep anywhere from two to 20 people, so there is a something for every couple, family, or group of friends looking to stay together under one roof.

Choosing a vacation rental home in the Syracuse area for a night, a weekend, or a week makes good sense to visitors who prefer a home environment with a kitchen, laundry room, and all the perks that go with staying in a private home. Families traveling with children, or groups traveling together and sharing space find that a home setting with private bedrooms makes for a more comfortable and enjoyable vacation.

Liz Ernst of New York Vacation Rentals says that more travelers are looking for lower-cost options to hotel rooms when they visit the Finger Lakes or any spot in New York State. Vacation rental properties, particularly for events like the Health and Wellness Expo, are gaining the attention of travelers who prefer the privacy of a vacation home rental in the Finger Lakes over an overpriced cookie cutter hotel room.

People figured out the value and comfort of renting a New York vacation rental home for short visits in places all across New York State a long time ago, Ernst says. Travelers prefer the convenience they get by staying close to their venue, and the homey surroundings are always a welcome change from a hotel room.

Travelers comparison shopping for the best value on a Finger Lakes vacation home rental, whether theyre looking to stay for one night or a whole week, are finding that price, amenities, and location always seem to favor a vacation rental home over a hotel or bed and breakfast.

Our job is to make sure that property owners and travelers can find each other, making it easy for travelers to find the right vacation rental home for their needs and budget, Ernst said.

Boston, MA (PRWEB) March 15, 2012

Originally built in 1907, this former carriage house and stable was part of the historic Ayer Estate on the North Shore of Boston, Massachusetts. The ocean front estate, then known as Avalon, was built for Mr. Frederick Ayer, whose daughter, Beatrice, was courted by and later married to General George Patton. In the 1980s the carriage house was converted into condominiums, albeit uninspiring ones possessing the air of a developers white box. The homeowners purchased their 5,600 square foot condo in 2004 and commissioned the award winning Boston based interior design firm Wilson Kelsey Design to create an elegant, Old World styled home with inspiration from a French Country and European palette. It was interior designer Sally Wilson who discovered that although their original directive was traditional, it was really a preference for something more Continental that defined the homeowners.

One would imagine that a carriage house of this era would hold, at least to some degree, historic and beautiful architectural details. However, this was not the case. All of the homes architectural features – moldings, millwork, cabinetry, fireplace, etc. were designed by Wilson Kelsey Design. When the homeowners described their inclination towards French design, I referenced pictures of Versailles and used their inspiration to design scaled-back solutions that would mesh with modern living, says interior design partner John Kelsey. And because most New England stock millwork profiles are Colonial, Kelsey had to find resources who would fabricate European details.

Features within the transformed home include an authentically styled French Country kitchen with exposed brick walls, shutters, and custom cabinetry and millwork reminiscent of antique furnishings and cupboards. The client wanted the feeling of a large European country kitchen with many amenities so that the family would want to cook and spend time there. A custom built-in sofa was designed to face the new gas fireplace, and encourage lingering at the table. The owner instructed the designers to hide all the technology.Two antique chandeliers, one from Newport, RI and the other from Charleston, SC, contribute to the old world feeling that the client wanted.

The living area is a stunning French-style salon furnished with a collection of new upholstery and antiques, a newly designed but centuries old-looking cast stone fireplace, French style paneling, intricate plaster crown moldings, and an ornamental ceiling. A collection of 18th and 19th Century antiques were acquired to add warmth and character. Antique lighting, antique architectural prints, paintings, and a wall-sized antique tapestry adorn the spaces. They are quite happy here, notes Sally, They love the rich paneling and detailed moldings, complemented with Directoire and Regency furniture, gilded mirrors, Italian crystal and metal chandeliers, tapestries, and defining millwork. Here, finally, they feel at home. As a reminder of the home’s ancestry, Wilson Kelsey discovered the original blueprint for the carriage house/stable, and had it digitally re-mastered and framed for display in the new kitchen dining area. It shows a carriage room, cow stalls, horse stalls, hay area, carriage washing bay, auto washing bay, harness room, and grooms room.

The renovation of this home has garnered Wilson Kelsey Design over ten regional and national design awards including The Institute of Classical Architecture and Classical America New Englands 2011 award for Best Residential Interior Design and Interior Renovation. The Bulfinch Award recognizes individuals and firms who preserve and advance New Englands classical design tradition. The project appeared on the cover of New England Home magazine and is featured in the 2012 Spring issue of North Shore Magazine. Celebrated for creating elegant, yet genuinely livable homes, Sally Wilson, ASID and John Kelsey continue to garner acclamations for their design talents.

About Wilson Kelsey Design

Wilson Kelsey Design is an award-winning, Boston-based interior design firm comprised of the husband/wife team of Sally Wilson, ASID and John Kelsey. They are unique in that they bridge the gap between architect and decorator and share a strong technical background. The former producer of This Old House magazine referred to their work as heavy-duty interior design. In organizing their firm, they have divided the labor between them into the hard and the soft. John designs and details the hard interior architectural detailing, cabinet design, lighting, interior construction drawings, construction field supervision, and consultant coordination. Sally initiates and implements project concepts inclusive of interior design, furniture, decorative lighting, antiques, fabrics, and color and finish selections. Their joint skill set was imperative for this condo renovation.

London, UK (PRWEB UK) 30 March 2012

Glamping in Cornwall, from

I’ll bet there’s at least one piece of flat-pack furniture in your home. Perhaps a bookcase or the TV stand? What about wardrobes or a set of drawers, or even your kitchen table?

�

Flat-Pack furniture is so called because it comes with all the various pieces packed flat for you to assemble yourself at home. This saves on production costs (where the company would have to build the furniture themselves) and transportation costs from the factory to the shop. Takes up less space at the retailers and generally makes for a much cheaper piece of furniture, assuming you don’t include the value of your sanity.

�

The flat-pack ‘experience’ is not normally complete without a few hours of cursing and hunting for elusive tools before finally presenting a piece of furniture that looks like it was caught in a hurricane.

�

No fear – help is at hand with my essential tips to putting together your flat-pack furniture purchase – sanity and relationship intact.

�

As an aside, may I just say I think a lot of the shops that sell flat-pack don’t so themselves or the product justice. On many occasions when I’ve looked, it’s obvious that the display unit has been poorly put together. The whole unit very often ‘rocks’ or has movement in the joints – no glue used! And the hinges etc are often not adjusted for that perfect lining up. Don’t be put off though. A little care using the tips below could probably get you a job on the spot. Anyway – on with the tips!

�

1) Choose a large flat area for the construction – with enough room to move around all sides of the finished piece. If it’s large, making it in the room or at least on the floor of your house it’s intended for will save a lot of heavy lifting. Please check it will fit through the doorway if you’re building it outside the room it’s intended for.

�

2) Unpack carefully and check you’ve got all the bits before you start – easily forgotten when you’re keen to make a start but a few minutes unpacking and checking you’ve got all the bits and they’re in good condition will save hours if the worst happens. Getting to the final piece to discover it’s missing or badly scratched is no fun – I’ve got the badge to prove I was there! It’s worth mentioning that you should also identify the correct screws and fixings with the instructions. There’s nothing worse than using the wrong screw for half the construction until you run out or finding out the screw you thought was J was actually K and has gone right through and out the other side of your piece of furniture. Top Tip: Use old margarine tubs to sort out the different sorts of fittings and keep them in whilst constructing.

�

Try counting the fittings and screws out as there is very often different amounts of two similar fittings so you’ll have help in identifying you’ve got the right one.

�

3) Familiarise yourself with the instructions – It’s all very well going Gung-Ho and starting where you think best. It’s only later when you discover a vital screw hole is covered by another piece you fitted out of order earlier (got the badge for that one too!). The manufacturer knows there’s a certain order to completing the furniture – that’s why you get instructions in the first place.

�

And on the subject of familiarisation, where two panels look very similar, be careful to identify the correct panel as by the time you realise you’ve made a mistake, it can be too far to go back. Visual clues include the location  of screw holes compared to the drawing in the instructions – particularly the spacing and distance from edges. Also, facing edges tend to be finished whereas rear facing edges tend to be left unfinished. If you’re really stuck, try ruling out obvious panels until you’re left with the one you couldn’t identify in the first place.

�

4) Flat-pack furniture is often dusty so protect your carpet or flooring by constructing the furniture on top of something soft like a large blanket or even the cardboard outer the furniture came packed in. Be especially careful if you’re constructing on top of a wood / laminate floor and causing scratches to the flooring and the unit.

�

4) Make all joints tight – sounds silly but you’d be amazed how easy it is to forget to tighten one joint or another. Use the special fitting supplied – most work on a screw in spindle with a ‘cam’ lock on the other end you twist to tighten. Very easy. Top Tip – if the construction uses wooden dowels, use a dab of wood glue in each hole (sometimes it’s supplied) for really solid joints. Be careful if you think you might need to dismantle the furniture in the future though and wipe any excess away with a damp cloth immediately (or see glue’s instructions).

�

5) Check for squareness of corners – with bookcases, it’s usually the back board, fixed using panel pins, that determines the final shape so be careful and work methodically – corner to corner, half way to half way etc.

�

6) Constructing flat-pack furniture is hot work – either through exertion or frustration so open a window and if it’s all going wrong, take a step backward and have a break for a couple of minutes and grab a drink. I’m sure it’s the dust and sawdust within the panel packaging coupled with whatever glues they use when compressing the wood that forms the panels that makes for very thirsty work.

�

7) If you’re constructing a large or heavy piece of furniture like a bed or wardrobe, even some of the larger bookcases can be quite a weight, make sure you’ve got help to lift it or even turn it over during construction, as is sometimes required. When it comes to standing tall pieces up, watch out for that ceiling!

�

It’s all in the finish – It really is the final touches that make all the difference. Fitting end caps or covers to screw holes etc. And if your furniture has doors, then align the hinges correctly to ensure a ‘seamless’ fit between doors. The same with drawer fronts – if there’s adjustment in the drawer runners, use it to get a perfect finish. Once it’s in place, you’ll never know the difference between yours and a ‘solid’ piece of furniture. Rails and finishing trims, sometimes bought separately, can add an ‘installed look’ to bedroom and kitchen furniture.

�

9) If your construction includes wiring, and if you’re at all unsure, then consult a qualified electrician. If you’re installing a kitchen yourself, then you’ll need a qualified Corgi registered plumber to carry out any gas connections or moving of existing pipework.

�

If you’re thinking of a flat-pack kitchen, then think very carefully indeed. Putting the cupboard carcasses together may be easy enough – it’s only when it comes to getting the doors to all line up, including the appliances and of course, working around uneven walls, floors and those ever-present bits of beam or wall that would challenge even NASA boffins, that you begin to realise it would have been easier and cheaper to get a professional kitchen fitting company in the first place. These are the sorts of touches that will increase your properties value as opposed to detract from it’s value should you ever sell.

�

Finally, keep any special tools that came with your furniture – you may need them to periodically re-tighten joints. On the subject of tools, having a decent cross-head and flat-head screwdriver, a small craft hammer for tapping in wooden dowels and/or panel pins and a hand electric screwdriver will save loads of time. If you’re using a power screwdriver, be very careful as flat-pack furniture is usually made of compressed wood and is very soft. It’s very easy to go straight through delicate finished side panels and ruin your furniture before you’ve even finished building it. Try making the last few turns of the screwdriver by hand.

�

And a word on safety – if it’s a tall item, many manufacturers will include a strap or bracket to fix your new furniture to the wall so it can’t topple over. It’s very important that you use these straps and fixings to secure such items so that they don’t topple over and fall on someone or something.

�

Once when moving house, I’d left a perfectly stable bookcase standing against a wall (temporarily of course). There was a loud crash and we discovered one of the cats had tried to climb up the bookcase causing it to topple…. through a window so yes, (sigh) I have that badge too.

The present generation is privileged to have born in the times when technology is launching itself into the unimaginable realms of human life. What seemed impossible a few years back is getting really feasible in the cyberspace. Who would have thought that a small 15-inch screen with some machinery could one day become a one-stop shop for almost all the human needs?

Electronic Commerce, facilitated through secure web portals, has changed the entire complexion of business transactions. We are increasingly witnessing a surge in the number of buyers preferring the online route. The homemakers are also tired of visiting the nearest market place for their daily chores. Even the long-term assets like furniture are readily available with major retail stores showing their glowing online presence.

Your furniture needs are best understood by you alone. Whether you want the class of Amish Handcrafted furniture or the toughness of wrought iron furniture, online furniture stores can provide you all. No doubt shopping from the cozy comforts of home has made life convenient but save yourself from indiscretion while buying furniture online.

The foremost consideration before buying furniture is the cost factor. The economics of your shopping bear a strong impression on the choice of furniture. A higher budget can land you the popular Amish furniture but if you are not prepared to spend more, modular furniture may be your calling. You can save precious dollars buying Amish furniture online. However, before finalizing the deal, some other factors need to be accounted for.

The credentials of the online dealer must be verified by a simple search on the Internet. It is important you deal with an honest and reputable furniture dealer who can guarantee a safe and trustworthy transaction. If you are planning to buy furniture from sites like eBay, make sure the seller has a consistently positive feedback. The mode of delivery and mode of payment must be clarified before closing the deal. There should be no doubt between the parties as to who will pay the shipping and handling charges.

If the seller happens to be a dedicated furniture online retail store, make sure the furniture as seen in the picture is delivered at your doorsteps. Window-dressing of the furniture items is fairly common with online retailers. Moreover, furniture may be damaged during shipping. If possible, ask the dealer if he is fine with payment on satisfied delivery. A reputable dealer will never hesitate in acceding to such a request if you show adequate interest in buying the furniture.

The dimensions of online furniture is another important proposition before you buy it. It’s no point looking for furniture that won’t even cross the boundaries of your door! The best way out is to have the dimensions of your rooms, doors and windows ready before negotiating the price of furniture. You must be sure of the style and size of the furniture that would fit and suit into your living place and give you a happy feeling.

The risk factor of buying furniture online cannot be ignored. But you’ll agree that there is always an element of risk in every purchase, be it online or offline. A cautious but certain approach online can provide you with the furniture of your choice.

The difference between modern and classic furniture is not hard to tell. The first difference is the size. Classic furniture was not made for compact houses or apartments. They were made to fit into big rooms. A classic chair can easily seat two people in relative comfort. However, if two people will try to sit on a modern chair, it would probably break.

Classic furniture is big, heavy and is made from solid wood. The wood used in classic furniture is dark. The cushions, seats and mattresses in past used to be stuffed with horsehair or cotton. Silk and cotton were the fabrics that were used in classic furniture.

Modern furniture is light and made from a variety of materials. Wrought iron has become very popular in making modern home furniture. Light colored woods like Pine are also used extensively in making modern furniture. Most modern home furniture use light colored wood.

Then laminated wood, chipboard is also used in modern furniture. These materials are used extensively in making modern office furniture, kitchen cabinets, and wardrobes.

A totally different material that is used extensively in modern furniture is strengthened plastic and glass. You can have a glass-topped table resting on strengthened glass globes or ceramic vases or with a steel or iron base. Plastic chairs are common at lounges and waiting areas in airports. The use of plastic and glass has become quite extensive in making modern furniture. Some plastic furniture is given a light wood colour to make it appear like wood.

A number of new fabrics are now used in making modern furniture. Polyesters and other man made fabrics are used extensively. The use of cotton, silk and other heavy drape material has become obsolete and out dated. Another noticeable change in modern furniture is the colours. Wrought iron is dull grey, blue or black. The monotony may be broken by steel, chrome or brass. Wood is light and the colours of the fabric may be bright. Old classic furniture had off white or cream as the base colour. Modern furniture fabric colours range from white to black with bright colours gaily mixed in. Purple, bright blue, fire engine red are used with gay abandon. In addition, the designs in the fabric have changed immensely. From sedate motifs of flowers, or birds, or fruits, the designs have gone to zebra stripes.

Modern furniture is brighter, airy and lighter than classic furniture. Maintaining modern furniture is also quite easy as is assembling and disassembling it. There are cleaners, polishers, and stain removers that keep modern furniture looking sparklingly new.

Modern furniture is more ergonomically designed. The chairs are not straight backed, and the cushions are more comfortable. The biggest difference is that modern furniture is not formal and stiff.

Modern furniture is more convenient and fit in easily in smaller houses. Some pieces of modern furniture are amazing in their design. They are a piece of art. Some of the geometrical patterns used in modern furniture are quite overwhelming. It is easy to tell the difference between classic and modern furniture by just looking at it.

Your kitchen remodeling plan may consist of one or several minor renovations. You can choose to apply a new paint, install a new floorings or countertop.
