Western Home Furniture

My company is expanding into Western Europe. We sell entertainment and home office furniture and are looking for some furniture reps there. We will be attending the Milan Fair in April 2008. Where can I go to find furniture reps to work with?

My new house is white and tan throughout, with some green in the master bath & a little blue in the guest bath. Our couch & club chairs are brown. Other furniture is avocado, mauve & black. (The rug makes it work.) Curtains in the living room & master bedding are French blue, we have smoke sheers in the master. It all looks good, but I want to begin planning the walls & accents while ensuring we attract abundance, health, friends & happiness - not the opposite.

By Chinese horoscopes, I am metal, my husband is fire and my kids are both earths. I read a lot about feng shui, but don't know how to apply it.

I created a Ba-gua:
front door/living room - South
master bedroom - Southwest (head of the bed - Southwest/West wall, MA door faces Northeast)
master bath - Western corner
kitchen & laundry room - Northwest
family room (with fireplace) and office - North
guest room is Northeast
guest bath is East
children's bedroom is Southeast

What are inherant obstacles? Fixes/Tips?
Last night I went and did a little more digging. My Kua # is 4. My husband's is 6. Hubby's year sign is fire sheep and fixed element is fire. By year I am a metal pig and my fixed element is water.

I do find not only is some information I read contradictory, but of course my husband and I are cancelling each other out. 3 1/2 weeks after we moved here I was fired unexpectedly from my job of 3 1/2 years, which is causing terrible financial problems. I am also concerned especially about our health. I am interested in the flying stars method, but don't know how to apply it, and is it for the whole house or for each room? Thanks very much for your help.

going back to your situation based on the fengshui i know:
- front door in the south, this is bad for next year, because south is the tai sui and 3 killings for next year. so you need to be careful next year. just keep everything calm, no new projects. and keep a salt water cure in this area. a salt water cure is an exceptions to the remedies i was talking about. a salt water cure : get a ceramic or glass jar, fill it with rock sea salt (not iodized) until it fills the 1/3 of the jar. then drop 1 silver coin and 6 copper coins on the salt, do not mix. then pour in water until the mix level up to 1/2 of the jar. the important here is the chemical reaction you get from the silver, copper and salt. thus, you need to put these at the south most part of your house, away from furnitures, because it will have nasty splashings from the reactions. this will mellow out the bad effects of the tai sui.

- toilet in west is not good for women (esp daughters) of the house, please keep everything simple. do not decorate with flowers nor with plants in this area. the bad effect is that women or daughter/s are sometimes rebellious towards their parents because they are attracted to the wrong crowd

- toilet in the east, bad for old people

- kitchen in the northwest, i am not so sure, but it can have a bad effect on the husband, because the wife might be overpowering him. and this is a bad place for the kitchen, because it is often called as fire in heaven. there is no remedy but to move the kitchen to another location

in fengshui, there are things that i am not sure of. to tackle these, fengshui has many concepts, thus i use other concepts. other concepts just need more specific info about your house like facing degree of main door. because sometimes, like in my home, my front door faces the south, but it is in the southwestern location. this mean that there are ghosts in the house. and i can see them in my home. but it is okay, because i am used to them.

if it is based on 8 mansions:
- children's room is not good located in the southeast
- you are good being in the southeast but not to your husband, he must feel very irritated... hehehe
- the front door is not good to you, but it is to your husband. but this is negated by the fact that your kitchen is in the northwest

regarding additional info, i like to focus more on fengshui, the part that deals with houses and environment. fengshui is not a cure-all. but fengshui has a side to analyze people and their relationship. i don't really like to go that direction, because i dont believe that you can improve relationships with fengshui. fengshui can only achieve 1 thing: either get money or get health, cannot be both, just 1 at a time. and there is nothing with regards to relationship.

4 belong to east, while 6 belongs to west; basically your not compatible. but as my master would say, things happen and people fall in love, and there nothing we can do about it. so, you and your hubby must make things work, no matter how hard it may seem. based on 8 mansions what is good to you is bad for him and vice versa. to manage this, we usually give the kitchen to the breadwinner or the person who earns more, and the bedroom to the other person. bec the kitchen is one that attracts wealth. but there is a secret way to do this that is not published in books, nor in website. you need to get someone to do it for you.

to learn more of flying stars, buy a book by ms. eva wong called a master course in fengshui, get the second edition, it has more examples at the back. there is a slight difference between ms. wong's take on the concept as what most masters are practicing - most people use water star and mountain star combination to interpret; while ms. wong use water star and base/time star to interpret.

most fengshui concepts contradict with each other, but with practice, you will know what concept to use on what situation.

i usually always go for money; because as my master would say when you have money, you can always go to the hospital to cure your illness.

there are many concepts and many ways to get rich. there is even a way to setup your toilet, so that whenever you flush, the more money comes into your life. it just depends on how you use them.

Price: $60.00

There was a cute store with home decor, furniture and art just north of pike place market on western ave. They apparently went out of business, but there was a large elephant painting that I wish I bought before they went out! Anyone know where their merchandise may have been liquidated? Or maybe an artist name of the Elephant paintings? (There were a few with the same signature).

You might want to contact one of their other two stores in the
area. Surely, either the Roosevelt District in Seattle or the one
in Bellevue Square will know where it moved. Perhaps they
have some of the merchandise as well.

Metal with a copper finish.
Works great as a stage prop for a play, too !
The ring measures 3 1/2" in diameter.

This is a fun question, aimed toward people who are still dreaming about their ideal home and farm/ranch.

What kind of house do you dream of having on your own farm?

How many horses would you want on your property?
How many stalls in the barn?
How many acres?
What state would you want to live?

My dream home:

A medium-sized log cabin-style home, with western-themed decor (wall hangings, furniture, etc)
A 5-stall barn
A miniature pony and 2-3 horses
About 20 acres
State: Montana
Mountain view!

So how about YOU!?

My answers:

I want a house built out of cream colored stone, maybe 2 floors (Like a ranch style (Long), but with 2 floors instead of one) that are whole floors, and then a third floor in the center of the roof. I would want a 2 story entry and living room (you know, stairs to a balcony). I would want it to just be comfortably furnished with neutral pieces in the living/dining/kitchen areas, and then show the personality in the bedrooms. I think I'd go for more english-style decor, but anything horse related!

How many horses?

Seeing as I want to own a boarding/breeding/rescue/training/lesson stable with a vet practice attached (I want to be an equine vet), I'd say 40-50 horses (not mine) depending. Obviously I'd have trainers and stable hands.

How many stalls?

Probably 60 in the boarding/lesson barn, 10 in the rescue, 10 in the breeding. I'd want my own private barn for my horses though, so maybe 6-10 stalls in that.

How many acres?

At least 50, preferably 100-500, even more if possible.

State?

Virginia, Maine, Pennsylvania, Florida, or Wyoming. I'm open to having it in any of those, but I'd like Virginia/Maine/Pennsylvania because my family lives in the Pittsburgh/Latrobe PA/Canton Ohio areas.

I would want it to have large wooded area (Like at the base of a mountain, preferably) so that you could go trail riding, but I'd also want lots of field space too (Cross Country course!)

I really want to have a stone barn (Cream again) with a gray shingled roof. I think it'd look really cool. I would want an indoor arena that was split like this: One 20x40 dressage, one standard (Or slightly larger) jumping. I would also want 2 outdoors (One sand, one grass) for jumping, and a couple of outdoor dressage arenas (One sand, one grass). I'd probably have the indoor located in the middle of the barn, and have the stalls form a ring around it, with a tack room in each outer corner of the aisles with private lockers in it. I'd also do lesson horses and tack in the front so the students don't have to walk through all the boarder's horses.

I got 2 of these emails. Only difference was the mother died and not the father.

This email comes from Craigslist. They say they are living in Europe running the family business (Furniture Company). They need someone from the U.S. because their "clients" are in the US.

They want you to live in their house for free and take care of their business while they are overseas. They will send you a check and you have to wire it to a bank account or by western union.

You keep %10 of the earnings and stay in their U.S. house for free. At first I did believe this. Then it got fishy. Especially when another person with the same story but alternated.

They will say they will send you the keys to their home. Then all of a sudden, they don't trust you enough. Someone broke into the house the last time, so they didn't send the keys.

You have to do a "test" before you get to live in their house for free. If you complete the test, you get the keys to the house.

This is a very elaborate story, best scam I have ever read online. They also use a yahoo email account.

I know there are a lot of scams on Craigslist now. My daughter inquired about a car and it was suppose to be about 20 miles from us. It turned out it was in some other state at a loading dock in a crate and they would send the keys after they got their money. You really have to be careful now there are scammers on all sites. Good luck!!!
