Add Texture to Winter Décor

Amy Newcomer • January 27, 2025
One of the arguably most fun parts of home décor is the incorporation of different textures. In winter, many people seek the indoors for warmth and coziness, so bring both function and aesthetics to your home with bold textures! Knitted blankets and even sweaters can break apart plain designs and give something comfortable to cuddle up with. Materials with sheen or brightness give a pop to any part of a room, whether it's a colorful velvet or neutral metallic. Soft faux fur is wonderful to touch and a fun addition to a smooth surface. Rough or ruffled accents work too. Consider using imitation leaves or tinsel to add something different and rich to the senses. Get creative and try to add one or two unique textures to any room!

You don’t need major renovations or complex installations to improve the quality of your home’s water. Simple habits can make a big difference in ensuring cleaner water for drinking and cooking. One effective practice is to let the cold water tap run for a couple of minutes before use, especially if the water has been sitting in the pipes for several hours. Stagnant water can accumulate impurities over time. Additionally, if you use a water filtration system, be sure to change the filter cartridges regularly. Old filters can trap bacteria and metals, reducing their effectiveness. Want more expert advice on maintaining clean water at home? Contact us today!

Pests can cause significant damage to a home, and termites are among the most destructive. If you suspect an infestation, there are key signs to look for. One of the first indicators is a small pile of discarded wings—termites shed them after finding a new location to establish a colony. Since termites feed on wood from the inside out, check for any areas that feel weak or sound hollow when tapped. Additionally, if you spot maze-like tunnels on wooden surfaces, especially near the foundation, this could be a strong sign of termite activity.

Have you ever touched a plugged-in metal object in your home and felt a jolt? If so, this could be a sign of an issue with your electrical system—specifically, an ungrounded circuit. When a system isn’t properly grounded, the risk of electrical shock increases significantly. Common household fixtures that may be affected include: Lamps Ceiling fans Water pipes Furnace ductwork However, it’s important to differentiate between a true electrical shock and a harmless static electricity zap. A small static discharge is not a safety concern, but a real electrical shock is serious and should be addressed by a professional electrician. If you suspect an issue, don’t hesitate to seek expert help.
