Oriental rugs are passed down from parents to later generations, lovingly cared for as they appear in a townhouse, beach cottage, suburban home or retirement condominium as a warm, comfortable family tradition. All they require is proper care and occasional mending to last, carrying with them the memories of those who owned them and passed them along.

Rugs may have a history which speaks of a family member's travels, a wise investment years ago, or a dining or living room where the family gathered. Children probably crawled on the rug, exploring intricate patterns which enhanced the home's classic decor. Many rugs have their own unique stories beginning thousands of miles away in the hands of skilled workers and artisans.

I will reveal the secrets of a good night's sleep, thanks to a piece of research by Travelodge hotels, which will make insomnia a thing of the past.

According to their findings, the color of your wall paper might be the problem! People with blue wallpaper, thought to create a feeling of calm, sleep the best. Other top wallpaper colors are yellow, green, silver and orange, all of which are thought to contribute to sleep by making people tranquil and restful.
