flooring transform your

Flooring can bring colour, texture and warmth to a room and completely change the look for very little money .

Whilst you want every space in your home to look stylish, it is important to think about how a room is used, who uses it and what furniture will be placed there when picking floor materials.

Carpets can provide a safer, gentler surface that ’s ideal for when babies and toddlers are around, as well as bringing added benefits like an extra layer of insulation that could lower winter fuel bills and a quieter atmosphere thanks to their sound insulation effects.

On the other hand, flooring materials like lino and vinyl are durable and easy to clean and maintain.

If you ’re looking at the various flooring options for your home, there are plenty of specialists across Sefton and West Lancashire that can help you buy and fit the right carpet or flooring to match your interior and your budget.

From tiles and laminate flooring through to wood, carpets and lino, it ’s easy to find something that looks great but also serves a purpose.

Alternatively, adding a rug can be a simple and cost effective way to spruce up an existing floor rather than replacing it entirely.

fireplace transform your

A fireplace is normally the main focus of a room and can tell a lot about a house.

There are many different types and styles of fire surrounds from character rich traditional styles which tell a story to ultra modern sleek centrepieces.

A very easy way to transform your fire surround is by painting it. Light paint such as white suit a shabby chic or cottage room but go for a more daring colour in a modern space such as tan, chocolate brown or even black. By painting the chimney breast a bright colour such as purple you can draw attention to a beautiful fireplace without altering the hearth itself.

For a relatively low price you can put in an up to date, stylish fireplace with some having gadgets such as remote controls these days!

1102631

There is also the question of whether to have a mantle or not. They are a great way to display decorations or photographs but have fallen out of fashion in recent years.

However, they can sometimes be built into the fireplace itself and a lick of paint or some simple restoration can bring them up to date and looking as good as new.

Modern gas fireplaces can have replica coal or wood stones at the bottom which can look extremely stylish and can be easily changed for one or the other if you fancy a change.

There are so many options to choose from it is always an idea to pop along to a fireplace specialist which can point you in the right direction!

transform your

kitchen

The kitchen is one of the most used rooms in the home and can be revamped by making changes big or small.

Just a few key adjustments can have a dramatic effect on the look of the room, such as replacing worktops and tiles, updating appliances, re-papering walls or painting cupboard doors.

Or why not introduce new elements to your kitchen such as a cooker hood or a butchers block.

Alternatively, splashing out on a whole new set of fixtures and fittings can create a luxurious environment to cook in, whilst breathing new life into your home and increasing the value of the property.

Make sure you are happy with the positioning of all the necessary storage areas and appliances, and make the most of the space you have.

In kitchens with too much space, unnecessary and unattractive banks of cupboards could be replaced with another appliance or a breakfast bar, and items such as suspended pot racks and the tops of eye-level kitchen units could provide extra storage in rooms with very little space.

For a new look but using a small budget why not change the doors on your kitchen cupboards. This can lead to a very pronounced change and improvement with very little work or money. In a matter of hours plain white cupboards for example can be changed to red, black or whatever you fancy!

Lighting is also something to take into consideration. Altering the position of lights as well as adding spotlights above surfaces and in kick boards can make the world of difference to the way your entire kitchen looks. Dimmer switches are also a great way to alter the ambience, so it is not so stark or bright, nor too dark.

For very small changes just to spruce up your kitchen why not add a very daring accessories such as a bright kettle or toaster.

The smallest things can sometimes make a big difference!

It makes a difference to the appearance of a room and should never be overlooked when redecorating.

If you ’re aiming to achieve that perfect interior that looks like it ’s straight out of a showroom or a glossy magazine, it ’s important to factor in lighting during the planning stages as new electrical wiring and fittings may be necessary.

Concept

The bathroom is one of the most important areas of the house and can contain showers, baths, toilets and washbasins.

furniture for living ality u q f o s r o o fl 2 discounted furniture

There are a number of different ways it can be laid out and it all depends on the size and shape of your bathroom.

You may wish to fit a shower and there is the option of having a stand alone shower, or one that is fitted to your existing bath. The choice is yours.

If you are thinking of changing your bath or toilet, they come in more shapes and sizes than you may imagine, with a wide variety of colours to suit your taste. Even changing your toilet seat and lid can make a difference.

Crystal Memory 4’6” Double Divan

Only £199 Fabric Suites

If you are sick of the flooring, you could put a carpet down, or have a matted floor. Both have their positives and negatives and are perfect for different requirements.

From £399

You may have changed your mind about the lighting in the bathroom and if this is the case, you can have more lights put in, or change the style of the fittings that are already there.

The walls are another area you could transform at a relatively low cost and minimal time. Some people have tiles in their bathroom, others have wallpaper, and the walls can be painted different colours, depending on which you prefer.

You may need more space in your house, and bathrooms are often handy places for cupboards to keep linen and towels etc. and generally anything you don ’t want on view!

Pandora’s Box celebrates 20 years in business this year!”

Pandora’s Box is one of Ormskirk’s premier retail businesses, and has been family run for 20 years. They are a women’s boutique, selling lingerie, swimwear, shoes, clothes and accessories. This momentous milestone is particularly significant in the present economic climate, as much of the focus on retail of late has been extremely negative. With small and huge organisations alike going out of business on a daily basis, Pandora’s Box’s triumph is definitely one to be celebrated. And they will certainly be doing just that at the end of this month by way of a 20 Year Anniversary promotion weekend and exclusive VIP evening.

SAVE MONEY AND TIME

Pandora’s Box has an excellent reputation and is widely known throughout the North West, specifically in Ormskirk and surrounding areas. They are fitting women for their bras who came to them as young teenagers and are now married and have got children of their own! Katie Givens one of the partners remembers helping out on the market stall at weekends, after school and working in the shop in the school holidays as a teenager. “I must have been the youngest trained bra fitter around! I remember always telling my friends in school what bra size they should wear. We used to do presentations at local schools and the WI and my mum used to use me as a model.”

advertising feature

She goes on to say; “We accredit our success to differentiation of service and products, a nose for specific customer needs and a friendly warm environment in which to shop. I believe these are the key factors for survival in any retail outlet. We certainly don’t rest on our laurels and business is tough, but we love it and couldn’t imagine doing anything else. Our customers are very important to us and there is nothing more satisfying than making people feel good about themselves and making a difference.”

The business began on a market stall 20 years ago and they quickly moved into the indoor market in Ormskirk and then into Wheatsheaf Walk, Where they are today. Originally selling only lingerie, Pandora’s Box has been selling shoes and clothes now since 2007 when they expanded into the unit next door.. With the day to day running of the shop now being run by ex sisters in Law Katie Givens and Jackie Wood, Katie’s Mum and Dad Pat and Jim Givens who are semi retired, still work behind the scenes in assisting the smooth running of the shop.

Pandora’s Box is very much a local institution for many women where they can more and seek advice, feel good or just simply have a catch up and hopefully it will continue to be so for another 20 years!

They are located in Ormskirk 1-2 Wheatsheaf Walk.
