Find out how a few key elements can warm up your abode over the winter months. Anyone can make a home that is inviting and relaxing after a long cold day.

Choose a warm paint colour
Explore the colour wheel - Notice that yellows, oranges and reds are on the warm side so utilising those colours will simulate a cosier, warmer mood. Blue and purples are on the cool side so they will simulate the opposite mood.

Warm lighting
Group lighting by using task and ambience lighting and a mixture of table and floor lamps. Warm coloured bulbs throw out a softer light and give a room a cosy feel.

TIP: Having your lights on separate switches means you can control how bright/dim a space will be.

Add pot plants
Any living element contributes to a cosy and inviting feel. Plants in baskets are not only on-trend, but they also generate more oxygen inside your home too.

TIP: Group pots together using different shapes and heights to make a focal point.

Carpet, rugs and textiles
Tiles are great but can be chilly underfoot in the cooler months. Carpets insulate, soften and warm up a room and New Zealand wool carpets are environmentally friendly with a sustainable fibre, plus naturally flame retardant.

Don’t discount rugs even if you have carpets. Make sure you choose a rug that works with your existing carpet. Placing a rug between yourself and the floor instantly guarantees a warmer atmosphere. Rugs are also incredibly good at tying a space together.

TIP: Garage carpet reforms the space from a cold concrete feel to a soft warm space too!

Hamilton City Council Cemetary Seven Sharp

Allan from Melville

Did any one see the story they did about a person complaining about the state of the cemetery and how he takes a lawnmower out and mows around his sons grave and that he done some others and got told off by ground staff and said he needed to get the deads relatives approval to do? what a cop out.

Did any one see the story they did about a person complaining about the state of the cemetery and how he takes a lawnmower out and mows around his sons grave and that he done some others and got told off by ground staff and said he needed to get the deads relatives approval to do? what a cop out.
Also the interview of the council staff member did not catch her name think it may have been Michelle Rivers saying they got more compliments than complaints about the state of the cemetery and that they were intentionally letting the plaques get overgrown. Not a single person i have spoken to has a compliment about the state of the cemetery.
If like me you are one of the complainants email sevensharp@tvnz.co.nz and let them know.
Maybe this publicity is something that might get them to tidy up the plaques in the lawn cemetery.
Great on the person taking it to the media I made contact with fairgo but I only just heard back after about 6 months seeking more info guess it might be another 6 months before they come back again lol
