You may not know about this such a very interesting fact that paint dates back to around 40 000 years. So what is paint? Paint is any liquid or mastic composition which after applying to a surface or substrate will be converted to an opaque solid film. We will now take a look at the history of paint which dates back as far as forty thousand years ago. There are many cave paintings that have been found which were drawn with red and yellow ochre, hematite as well as manganese oxide and charcoal.

If we take look at the many ancient walls that were painted in Egypt which has survived the harsh open air climate and has still retained the perfect brilliance of colour after two thousand years. They used a technique whereby they mixed their colours with a gum type substance it was noted that they only worked with six colours such as black, white, red, blue, yellow and green. They first painted the area white and then traced a design onto the surface using black and then filled the design in using the remaining colours.

The ingredients used to make paint as the yolk of eggs as these hardened readily and would stick to any surface easily. Colour pigments were obtained from many different sources such as plant materials as well as sands and the red pigment was made from the blood of animals.

Then during the Renaissance period oil paints came into being whereby linseed oil was the base which was used for fine art and oil based paints were extensively used through the different periods and are still in existence today.

In modern day time we now find water based paints as well as watercolours and acrylic paints which are very popular. And paints that were manufactured way back like the milk medium paints which are now called casein are still available today.

You will still find a medium of egg yolk mixed with oil which is called egg tempera as well as encaustic wax paints. And there are watercolours which obtained their pigment from ground semiprecious stones and bound with gum Arabic or egg white is still available.

A very popular paint which is used primarily by art students and children is poster paints. In today’s time there is a collection of different types of paints to suit all occasions from interior to exterior paints. Nowadays Primers are used before using a coat of paint to ensure better adhesion of paint which also increases paint durability as well as provides protection to the material being painted.

Then you can buy varnishes which are used to protect your paint work as these are clear paints that do not contain pigments. There are also wood stains which enhance the colour of the wood as well as protect it. Other paints which are obtainable are enamel, glaze, finger paints and even anti graffiti coatings. The best of all now on the market is anti climb paint when painted onto a surface makes it extremely slippery and should someone try and climb the wall the paint will rub off onto the climber and they will also slip down the surface. This paint was designed to deter burglars and vandals.

Tiles cam add drama and interest to the room they are in. They can add a level of sophistication or they can help make the room inviting. Tiles can be used to make an area easy to clean. They can be used on the walls, for floors, on tabletops, windowsills or anywhere else you may choose to add them. They are one of the most versatile things you can place in a home.

Bathrooms are one of the most common areas to find tiles. Placed on the walls, they can make the bathroom look lavish and like a spa retreat, or give it a retro feel. If you want to add shower tiles, they can be solid or used to create a pattern using mosaic techniques. You can use these to coordinate the color scheme and have it blend, or use these to make it look like a Roman bath house. The possibilities are endless here.

Bathroom floors can also be tiled, and many people find this uncomfortable on bare feet. Heated tiles can also be good in a bathroom. These use a mat that rolls under the tiles and has an electrical system to heat the tiles above and is controlled by a thermostat. You can easily do this yourself, but you will need to get an electrician to install the thermostat.

Kitchens also can make great use of tiles. They can be used on counter tops and as flooring, and be decorative or solid. Granite is one of the recommended types to use because of the stain resistant properties and the longevity of the material, and it comes in a large assortment of colors for you to choose from.

Back splashes in the kitchen are also popular. There is no set hard and fast rules for these, they can be placed in a small area behind the stove, or they can be used as a border above the counter all around the room, but this allows the structure and walls to be protected and easily cleanable. You will want to choose your counter tops first so you can utilize the back splash to give a high contrast, furthering the beauty of the tiles. These can again be placed in a mosaic pattern or be solid and can be narrow or wide. Some of the more interesting kitchen tiles are now being produced in stainless steel, and gives it a rich feel to the kitchen. Glass can also be used effectively behind the sink to allow light in like a window would, but still maintain your privacy.

Flooring is also popular when tiled, and they can be made of durable ceramic or granite as well. Both of these can withstand heavy use and come in many colors to match your decor to the room. You can choose to have these large or small and include patterns if you like.

Tiles are also traditionally used for fireplaces and mantles. This can add new life to your existing one and make it a focal point of the room. Tiles can be used to make the fireplace more interesting and can create a traditional beauty in the room many modern builders have forgotten about. Some of the tiles for these can be unique and highly artistic.

Tiles can make cleaning easier, and give your home an expensive look. Modern or rustic, tiles can fit into any home.

As far as the tile itself goes, the work — while somewhat involved — can be carried off by someone who takes a few moments to study and practice just a bit before cutting and installing the tile itself. It is far more important to make sure that the floor underneath the tile is as flat as possible and on the same plane as the tile that will be going over it.

Introducing a rug into a room can have an amazing effect on the atmosphere and feel; adding both character and giving a sense of definition. They can also create a warm and homely feeling, making a space more comfortable. And of course, they are also an excellent way to cover any unsightly stains if you are unable to afford a completely new carpet for your room.

Before heading out any buying a rug however, it is advisable to give a little thought and consideration to your choice; in order you are happy and continue to be happy with it. Things to consider include whereabouts in the room it will be placed, what the use is for the room, and what you are using the rug for.

One of the first things to consider will be the size of the rug of course. Whilst you may find a rug that you like the look of, the feel to, and the color or design; it will be a pointless purchase if too big or too small.

Rugs come in many shapes as well of course, and getting this right is also important. Circular rugs can be used well; particularly if used in combination with each other. They can also be used to create a comforting atmosphere. Rectangular rugs are more common of course; and are ideal for formal settings. Another consideration are free form, which are excellent in modern areas.

It is also necessary to consider the type of weave, though there are so many which can be discussed, it is well worth having a close look at these for yourself.

Most rugs are machine made these days of course, but hand woven rugs tend to me more durable; though will of course cost more.

As important as the weave regards durability, is the material and, again, these will need greater investigation than can be given here. Wool, cotton, silks and nylons can all be found; along with other lesser known materials. Each has its pros and its cons of course. Some wear far quicker, others lose color more readily, whilst some simply do not feel as comforting underfoot.

Also important will be the color you decide to select. Many may want the color to pick up on certain accents throughout the decor of their room; others may want a complete contrast, whilst others again will want their rug to fit perfectly into the color and tone of other furnishings and floor and wall coverings.

When deciding the color, it is important to also consider the material and weave again; to ensure it does not fade too quickly.

Whilst decreasing in popularity of late, patterned rugs are somewhat of a hidden secret for interior design. A pattern on a rug will help to hide any little stains, reduce the effects of wear and tear and color loss. There are more modern patterns available too, which make for fantastic focal points in a room; so it is far from the elaborate Asian styles that are synonymous with them.

Once you have size, style and budget determined you should determine the color or combination of colors you desire. Having an idea of what you are looking for in pattern and color will make the shopping process quicker and easier. You can match the colors you already have in the room or you may prefer to actually provide a different color scheme with the new rug. You may even after decide after finding a rug that you just have to have that you want to change the room’s decor to match the rug.

No matter what you decide there are many options open to you. There are also many different avenues available for purchasing a rug. There are discount housing good stores that provide a selection of rugs or you may decide to shop at a specialty gallery that has custom made rugs. No matter what you decide buying a rug can provide a great touch to any room.
