If you are finding that your walls or window seals have mould spots, musty smells or condensation on the windows in the morning, then you will need to get a dehumidifier to get rid of the dampness around the house. Mould and allergen growth will lead to risks of health problems and can cause damage to the house. Hence it is important to get a dehumidifier to remove the moisture from the interior air of a room. It will also maintain the room’s humidity levels through a humidistat as too dry or too wet are both not great.

Part of getting enough sleep is making your bedroom super cosy. But how do you do that? Let’s take a look.
You spend at least one-third of your entire life sleeping. That is why it’s essential that you invest in a good quality bed, or better yet, a luxurious one.

Those looking for ways to make more room in the bedroom for extra comfort and convenience, follow this guide.
Whether you have a large or a small bedroom, there are always times when you wish you had some extra space. People accumulate more things than we need, and the bedroom is often the place where we leave things to pile up. If you want to maximize your bedroom space without having to part with everything, then here are four simple ways to accomplish that.
Small bedrooms have their advantages. They discourage clutter, they’re easy to clean and they can give off a cozy feel that larger bedrooms can sometimes lack.
However, there are other times when they can feel utterly claustrophobic and impractical. If you spend most of your time in your bedroom, you could feel as if you’re sometimes living in a cell. The bed is likely to dominate the room, leaving very little space for anything else. Attempt to add in a wardrobe or a desk and you might end up with no space to stand.
It has been a while since we last updated our kid’s bedrooms with new bedding. Since we moved to our new home, we’ve been very busy sorting out the rest of the house and have neglected their bedrooms.
I can’t remember when we last bought them new bedding. These past two years have been a busy one, from putting our house on the market to selling it, from renting to buying a house. It has been one thing to another thing in life! Also not forgetting, we had to prepare my son for his grammar examination and to find a house near his new school.

It has been three years since we last updated our bedroom. It is getting to the stage that the room feels dull and boring. A few years ago, we painted our walls with a gold colour and furnished it with a brown leather king size bed, white bedside drawers and red table lamps. To play it safe, we bought a white Egyptian cotton duvet set hoping to help the colours blend together.
Madness always starts early in this household. Ms C (5 years old) is learning the art of the lie-in but Mr K (6 years old) is a consistent early riser. The time for myself is normally during school hours and after they sleep.
My usual routine is to finish the housework and prepare and cook lunch/dinner while listening to Chinese music from my favourite Singaporean radio station via an app on my iPad.

I think it helps to give a different theme to each room and it will also ensure I won’t get immune to the scents.
