			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.hammerstonewinery.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/orchids.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-41" title="orchids" src="http://www.hammerstonewinery.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/orchids.jpg" alt="orchids" width="251" height="201" /></a>The growth of the orchids is very slow, from planting the seed to flowering for the first time it takes about 4 years. For this reason, this plant can live about 50 years.</p>
<p>Orchids do not germinate well outside their natural environment, as it requires a soil fungi that are capable of providing the nutrients needed for growth. This soil should be composed of peat moss, fern roots, fragments of coal, sand and wood mulch.</p>
<p>Another of the care you need an orchid to delight our senses with its flower are:</p>
<p>Luz. The most common reason orchids do not tend to flourish is the lack of light. For that reason, the ideal place to locate it near a window. Also, this window should be protected by curtains or VISIL to protect the plants from strong sunlight hours in summer and spring.<br />
On the contrary, the sun and autumn ivierno is preferred for these plants.</p>
<p>Temperature. The orchids are adapted to all kinds of weather without difficulty, although they prefer the warm. To bloom in larger quantities, require temperature range during the day and night, for that reason, if found inside a home, we recommend opening windows at night for a while to let in fresh air .</p>
<p>Humidity. The high humidity is ideal for these plants. As the dry air of homes and a strong heating can be very detrimental for orchids.<br />
To increase humidity can put the pots on damp gravel, place two or three plants together to create a humid microclimate, and spray it with soft water (a plant, not the flowers).</p>
<p>Air. Orchids need a well ventilated area. This way they can cool the temperature down, allows you to renew the oxygen and prevents the possible attack of fungi and bacteria to reduce humidity.<br />
It is recommended to ventilate the room where they are but avoid cold drafts. A soft fan can also be helpful.<br />
Try to maintain a balance between ventilation and moisture they need, although this can sometimes get a little complicated.</p>
<p>Water. The frequency of watering depends heavily on the chosen species, humidity and ambient temperature, if the pot is of clay or plastic, etc..<br />
Orchids better support the lack of abundant irrigation water, so when in doubt, better watering slightly. Always check that the drainage work properly because the abundant water rots the roots. Water these plants prefer the rain, so they are often advised to gather the water when it rains and then use it to water the plants. To give you more time, it can be mixed with tap water.</p>
<p>Compost. In nurseries sell fertilizers specially formulated for orchids. Although very good effect also produce fertilizers for houseplants but at half the dose listed on packaging.<br />
These plants require little fertilizer, excess minerals and vitamins can kill you</p>

Keeping them clean and in good condition, is an essential condition for them to shine as expected.<br />
This task is not complicated, we should only spend a certain time. While the cleaner is a good option, not always have the possibility to send them there.<br />
Therefore, we will give you some simple tips to help you always look perfect curtains.</p>
<p>First we take it down and remove the rings or hooks with.<br />
Before placing it in water, shake a bit to remove the loose powder together.<br />
Then we put them in a sink or source of warm water, big enough for the screen between back and is well covered with water.<br />
This container will rinse twice to remove a little more land they have.</p>
<p>After this work, we put back in warm water with some soap for delicate fabrics and let rest in the mixture for 10 to 15 minutes.</p>
<p>Curtain will move gently, then rinse with clean water about 3 times.<br />
Where to hang out of the water, we must not twist at the touch can remove excess water.</p>
<p>Before hanging on the rope, we will place a towel over it so that the curtain did not stay strong and hang in the shade.<br />
If the fabric is not ironed, hang in place before it is completely dry, finish drying hanging, being more verbose.</p>
<p>Generally, the curtains do not need to be grilled whole, is usually sufficient to give a touch of ruffles and edges, and spend a warm iron over the cloth to preserve the texture of it.</p>
<p>Finally, place the rings or hooks and re-hang.</p>
<p>After this we can surely look back the curtains, leaving as if we had sent to the cleaners, but with a few dollars saved.</p>

<p>So today we give you several recommendations to learn to turn your bedroom into a space to convey your essence.</p>
<p>Subtle colors for <a href="http://www.hammerstonewinery.com" target="_blank">greater harmony</a> Choose soft colors to help you unwind and relax, for this we recommend using soft tones of blue, lavender or green. You can make combinations with one wall a darker color like brown or a darker shade than you are using (eg blue with lavender blue or purple).</p>
<p>Combine up to the heights Do not neglect the ceiling, paint it a slightly lighter color of the wall, this will help reduce the visual threshold and give the impression of more space.</p>
<p>Choose well the furniture must maintain a balance between the size of the furniture and the room: Do not choose a large, heavy bed for a small room. If the ceiling is high you can use a high header that will help you balance the size. If your bedroom is large, choose furniture to fit it: Add a chair or furniture at the end of the bed. Furniture and accessories that are too small will be lost in a large room.<span id="more-30"></span></p>
<p>Light up your senses in a bedroom there is good lighting throughout the room, especially if it can be mostly natural light. Use small lamps to focus on reading and other activities. Each light should be adjustable with a dimmer: Install a switch on / off so you can be selective with the light to the area you want.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.hammerstonewinery.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/modern-home-improvement.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-34" title="modern home improvement" src="http://www.hammerstonewinery.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/modern-home-improvement.jpg" alt="modern home improvement" width="313" height="208" /></a> Many times we decorate our house in a certain period of our lives and over time (which may be a couple of years &#8230;), seeing as our house or trends in architecture and design have changed can get &#8220;the look&#8221; of our home to become our worst nightmare.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why finding the right time to remodel our house when we have the budget ready for the investment and we are prepared physically and emotionally to take this feat. When this time comes we should not (or can) play super heroes, because they may achieve rather than a grace, finish with a frog to make us spend more on repairs.</p>
<p>So today we&#8217;ll give a few basic tips and show you an example of a remodeled home with only a change in color.</p>
<p>1. Put your dreams on paper: We recommend as a first step you take leaves and paper and set your ideas clearly. If you want the room has a rustic or children&#8217;s room decor with this theme of a specific character, all this must be stated from the beginning.</p>
<p>2. Seek help from professionals: To ensure that the most optimal results are, first and foremost is to consult with the right person, a designer or decorator. They may help you set goals that you want to go and watch the project as a whole to meet the expectations you have.<br />
<span id="more-33"></span><br />
4. What I vs. What I need: It is essential to talk with experts on various topics, but it is very important to find the utility more than the designs in some cases. We must look if we make a good investment that will last us long term or have details that we like a lot but not as functional as they need.</p>
<p>Following these simple ideas, you will see better results at home.</p>
<p>Makeover show they then wanted to give a total shift to the facade, which is why the advice of the designers were made the following changes:<br />
The clear warm tone palette provide a sober and elegant.<br />
We used a neutral color and can be combined for the roof and tile color.<br />
According to the architectural style of the façade, window frames were recommended French style white.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For maximum space and light, we opted for yellow palette.<br />
To highlight the architectural elements like columns and details land applied as a color contrast.<br />
Al metal was given a gold finish Rustic.</p>

Another advantage is that maintenance is easy and you can choose from a wide range of shades to suit your tastes and needs of your spaces. But addition, the wood has another great advantage: you can restore it whenever you want! Here we give you some tips for you to paint your floor and is perfect.</p>
<p><strong>Sand the surface of the floor.</strong></p>
<p>For this task you can use a sandpaper. Remember it is important to the movement of sand in the direction of the lines of the wood, evenly, moving from one side of space, to the opposite side.</p>
<p>We recommend that you review carefully the wood once you have sanded, they may leave a hole in wood or features. If this is your case, and then use some líjalo filled with water.<br />
When you finish the sanding process, it is important that you wash with detergent soap and water.<br />
Once the floor is completely dry, apply a wood preservative. Prolong the life of flooring, because it prevents decay and the presence of fungi and insects.</p>
<p>At the end of this layer, apply varnish your floors favorite hue.</p>
<p>Remember that for the proper maintenance of wooden floors, it is important to apply a yearly coat of varnish and wash the floor with detergent soap and water at least once a month.</p>

Mainly for two reasons: First, because it was built with bamboo. Yes, much like Gilligan&#8217;s Island. And second, because many classes are outdoors and in an environment where green is the predominant color.</p>
<p>The work was built by John Hardy, a retired jewelry designer after seeing &#8220;An Inconvenient Truth&#8221; by Al Gore, decided to gir his life and work from there on towards the future of children. And boy was taken to heart their commitment. So he devised the &#8220;Green School&#8221;.</p>
<p>But this school is far from lax hippie or just because it&#8217;s green. On the contrary, developed with the same enthusiasm math, language arts, social studies, science and combine them in turn with the production of gourmet chocolate, organic farms and new construction methods for SUTENT with bamboo, among other things.</p>
<p>It is also developed within the parameters of permaculture, ie it was designed to work in perfect cohesion with the earth, and that also have an organic garden and students can grow fruits and vegetables.</p>

<p>But against this type of material alternatives, which may seem more expensive, but whose long-term use is more profitable because they provide significant energy savings, which is obtained in higher quality housing, and a friendly quality the environment.</p>
<p>Such materials are not more than those that nature provides and that have been used in housing construction for thousands of years: wood, clay, cork, marble, etc, and that they may add new material to achieve ecological use of them: termoarcilla, sudorita, geotextiles, BioBlock, Celenit, cables Afumex, arlita, Heraklith, biopharmaceutical paintings.</p>
