We hope that this furniture buying guide will help you make smart decisions when shopping for furniture. Our sincere hope is that you will do your homework and be satisfied with your purchases. Shopping online is probably the best way to shop for furniture, so have fun!

Furniture, Identify your personal style

Is it casual furniture, contemporary, country, traditional or eclectic? If you're unsure, look at the items around you to see how they reflect your personality--your wardrobe, your car, your magazines, favorite movies, etc.
Examine your furniture design preferences

Make a list of your favorite colors, textures and patterns. Do you prefer bold colors or pastels? Solids, stripes or plaids? Soft, light fabric covers or rich tapestries? Lighter fruit woods or darker hardwoods?

I am a researcher studying the usage of mixer/grinders in Indian
households and would love to have some insights on this forum. If you
have an opinion about your current mixie usage and want to make a
difference in the design of a "next generation" mixie please feel free
to respond to the following 4 questions.


2. What is the brand and model of the mixie that you are currently
using?

3. What are the problems that you face while using it (and why)? To
answer this think of situations where you wanted to use your mixie but
couldn't.

4. Now imagine that you were to design an "ideal" mixie, and the mixie
could have any feature you could possibly dream of. Please list the
features of this "ideal" mixie.

Thank you in advance for your time and invaluable insights! ]]> Ideal Indian Home vujade http://www.indusladies.com/forums/ideal-indian-home/76447-designing-your-dream-mixie.html http://www.indusladies.com/forums/ideal-indian-home/75831-return-gifts-for-gruhapravesam.html Mon, 02 Nov 2009 13:57:20 GMT Hi Ladies: My friend is having her house warming ....Gruhapravesam next month.

My friend is having her house warming ....Gruhapravesam next month. She wants to give return gifts to the guests. There will be around 30 families.
There are lot of relatives so she cannot go in for expensive ones. If she spends at least Rs.200 per family then what kind of gift do you think she can get. Sarees ruled out because with that price you dont get good quality ones.
It can be one common gift for the entire family not individually for each member.
I am not really up to date with the price and availability of things in India.

Please give some ideas. I know I can get some of the most brilliant ideas here.


Thanks

I am interested to learn baking after going through chitra amma's recipes. I don't know the ABC of baking. Does anyone know if they teach baking around Fremont/Bayarea.
I searched it in the net aand there's none. If any of you are interested to try, maybe 2 or 3 of us will get together and try out recipes from Chitra aunty's trove.
If anyone interested let me know

We purchased a 30x40 site in Blr in the year 2006. Our plan was to build a house but unfortunately due to certain govt. policies it got held up and this September we started the work after a long wait. now the foundation is complete. But now there is another site to the South of our site which has come up for sale. The site lies on the road itself which means there is a road in front as well as at the back of the site.The whole site faces the road.
I don't believe in Vastu and I found no prblm in buying the site. I think that it is only minds that work in a marriage and no material things can break or make relation ships. More over the road was laid by the people and it is not part of nature.

But my husband and his parents are confused due to two reasons
1) The site is to the south of our plot....As per Vaastu it is not favorable to buy any plot to the south.
2)The entire site faces road....which brings destruction according to Vaastu...

Please any one could you clarify these doubts.Are these relevant? Can you site any example which you have met or experienced..Since we have laid the foundation for our home,it is now or never regards the purchase. Can anyone plz help? ]]> Ideal Indian Home Dlr.binu http://www.indusladies.com/forums/ideal-indian-home/75298-vaasthu-concerns-plz-give-authentic.html
