			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Kitchen ceramic wall.</strong> Ceramic tile wall in the kitchen is a must for oven, sink and fridge side. Yes, it is better to install tiles behind the fridge too. The vest placement for kitchen stuff is one raw, like: oven, dish washing machine, sink and rubbish bin under it and fridge. This is the ideal way of keeping the kitchen clean and organized. Installing tiles then will not be a big problem and you can do it yourself. There is no need to put tiles all the wall from <a href="http://homeandgardenusa.com/category/typesoffloorinftips/">floor</a> to ceiling. Tiles can star from the furniture and be about 50 cm height. This will be enough to keep the wall clean. Nowadays almost all new house have this tile raw in the kitchens, but if yours does not, read the guidelines, maybe you can do it easily. It will take not more than 2 days only.</p>
<p><strong>How to install ceramic tiles wall:</strong></p>
<p>1. How many tile do I need? Check how long your wall is and how high you want it to be. Use tile calculator or just give measures to the tile specialist at the market where you are shopping and choose the colour and tile size you want. Is tile size important? Actually yes. Small tiles look smarter than big ones. The most important question is colour. Let it be any that suits your kitchen but black. I have already mentioned <a href="http://homeandgardenusa.com/2009/10/29/housedecoratingblackcolours/">disadvantages of black colour</a> in home decoration in my previous article.</p>
<p>2. Buy all necessary tools at the same market where you are shopping. They are: rubber grout float, goggles, notched trowel, tile nippers and saw, tile cutter, level and tape measure of course. You will also need screws, plastic washers, waterproof grout and mastic tile adhesive, latex gloves. Seems too much? What can we do, this is a normal list of tools for tile walls.</p>
<p> 3. Make the wall clean and dry. Use dehumidifier, especially if it is a new house. </p>
<p><strong>Attention!</strong> If you are not sure in the result do not do it. Call for a professional and leave the job to the specialists. Do not forget about self <a href="http://homeandgardenusa.com/category/housesecuritysafety/">protection</a> and using goggles and gloves when working. Read manual of each tool you use before start working. When installing tiles, pay attention to the colour and pattern of tiles, it will be difficult to change them later. It is better if you do it with a help of somebody else, who can watch you and your work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Kitchen area.</strong> How to choose a kitchen rug? If you do not use wall to wall carpets in your house you can afford yourself any rugs in the kitchen. When you choose carpets according to rooms you can change them from time to time depending on how dirty they are or in case if it is remodeling of the whole kitchen. In case if you have wall to wall carpets including kitchen, you can put some thin rugs to protect carpet from spots and spills. Even if you are very careful at kitchen, have no pets or babies, still believe me, in about 4 years your carpet will look dirty, it even deep <a href="http://homeandgardenusa.com/2009/10/03/steamcarpetcleaning/">carpet cleaning</a> will not help to make is as new. Just think to what it will lead. You will have to change carpets in all the house or to change carpet only in the kitchen and if it&#8217;s colour will be different from the others it will not look so beautiful as before.</p>
<p> <strong>Kitchen rugs.</strong> Do you need new rugs in the kitchen? Why not to avoid your previous mistakes and buy rugs exactly suitable for kitchen like washable ones. Do you want to live scaring every time you spill something on it or when cooking? It will be much more easier to buy washable rug, that can be washed by yourself or by nearest carpet cleaning company.</p>
<p><strong>Kitchen rug colours.</strong> Colour of kitchen rugs is both important for it&#8217;s usability and beauty. It is logical that lite colours will always show dirt and dark colours will hide. But what is kitchen furniture is ready and you have to find the most suitable colour for it. We must think not only of easy cleaning but beautiful decor. Do not forget about your floors colour and pattern. Colour is simple cause there is a really big choice of carpets everywhere. Pattern is more difficult. If your floor has a pattern, then you rug must be without it. This is one of the most important tips of <a href="http://homeandgardenusa.com/category/homedecorating/">home decorating</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Shapes of kitchen home rugs.</strong> It is up to you what shape to choose, oval, rectangle or round. But as you understand rectangle and oval rugs will look better in rectangle kitchens,  and round rugs in square ones. You can buy two small rectangle rugs, it will be more easier to get them out and clean.  But their view will differ depending on <a href="http://homeandgardenusa.com/category/kitchenimprovement/">kitchen</a> sizes and furniture in it.</p>
<p>Does not matter what colour or shape is your rug, it may have fruits: apples, cherries, or pumpkin on it, or it can be red, black or white, but remember that any carpet for kitchen must be washable,  fire- resistant and anti- slip. Kitchen must be a safe place, especially if you have children.</p>
