Schools out for Summer.. . although the weather has definitely cooled off! It’s not easy to entertain the children for six long weeks without spending a fortune but there are some free ways of getting them out and exhausting them without exhausting your budget.

- A quick search on the Internet can show you how to make a kite so just wait for the next windy day and watch it fly.
- Round up the neighbourhood kids and organise a mini Olympics. Chocolate money makes for great gold medals.

With the beautiful weather we have been enjoying, our body clocks tend to respond to the bright morning light and have us leaping out of bed earlier.

We then need our bedrooms to be as comfortable as possible to ensure that the sleep we do get is deep, dreamy and unbroken. (more…)

At AKKA bedroom furniture we take the responsibilty of using ethical timbers very seriously. This means that we only use our american timbers that come with a forestry stewardship council stamp. This will identify that the timber has been sourced from a mill and forest owners that participate in managing it’s forests by re-planting trees after logging has taken place. This encourages people who live in the poorer parts of the world to see that they can still make money from the trees but also still see their natural habitat not totally disappear around them.

You have finally found the vision on how you want your bedroom to look after researching the internet for months. Now down to the hard work of stripping the walls, filling in the imperfections and finally painting or wallpapering.
Have you done enough research about the quality of your bedroom furniture? No, then let me lend a hand.
Oak or walnut wooden beds
Try to buy a bed that is solid wood. Key factors to look for are no small finger pointed laminations on the siderails, head and tail rails. Look for signs of white sapwood showing towards the outside of the bed. Whilst this is not crucial to the construction, it shows that the manufacturer has taken time to put the sap face to the inside of the bed with the pure oak tones showing.

You bought your house a few years ago now and you have gradually decorated room by room, finally reaching your bedroom. This room need to feel tranquil and releaxed, so getting the mood right is important.
An important point to remember is you shouldn’t try to cram too much furniture into your bedroom space as this will ruin the look and feel. The immediate concern will be the bed, followed by storage needs. In a double bedroom a bedside cabinet either side of the bed is a good idea, particularly if you like to read at night as bedside lamps can be placed on them. A chest of drawers is a must along with wardrobes. The furniture can then be added to create the individual mood with bedding, curtains, pictures and accessories, thus adding style and personality.
