Living Room Design

·               IF YOU LIVE IN COLD PLACES AND HAVE A WOOD-BURNING FIREPLACE and you have asthma, you're better off converting it to gas or using it for decoration only. Regardless of how well your chimney works, some fireplace smoke always enters the house, irritating your lungs. Plus, the wood you're using could have mould on it, and spread millions of spores around the house when burned. If you have a gas fireplace, be sure it is vented and burning properly to avoid a buildup to soot.

·                    WATCH OUT FOR CANDLES :- Although they're romantic and lovely, they can also irritate supersensitive airways (this is window candles that use low-wattage bulbs instead of wax and wicks. Or stick with natural, unscented beeswax candles, and be sure they have lead-free wicks. Also, avoid candles in jars, which tend to burn unevenly, leaving more soot deposits on walls and floors and thus more potential allergens in the air.

·                    GET RID OF YOUR OVERSTUFFED COUCH and replace it wit leather or vinyl, which will not be as hospitable to allergens.

·                    CLEAN UNDER THE FURNITURE, dust the knickknacks, wipe down the walls, and clean the window.
