There are plants which are highly preferred in Feng Shui: * Plants of rounded form; * Plants of rounded form with rounded and thick leaves; * Plants with flowers of bright colors and large size; * All sorts of lianas and vine. Lush forms or bright colors of the plant define its power, presence of positive energy that can provide your home with force. Plants with thick and lush rounded leaves (mainly succulents) attract wealth to the house....

Cleaning and caring for silver jewelry is simple to do if you follow a few basic rules. Your silver jewelry should always shine with a little care and maintenance. When you buy silver jewelry, the first thing to remember is that silver is a soft metal. Even a heavy silver ring will bend if enough force is added to it, i.e. you should take off your ring before lifting anything heavy. Another thing to bear in mind is how you store your jewelry when it is not being worn....

Why not create an electronic lamp which dynamically matches the color of whatever it stands on? It would be some kind of chameleon lamp :). The lamp would light the surface underneath it with two hidden white LEDs and then use an optical sensor to determine the correct color. It would match this color by adjusting the shade of numerous multi-color LEDs imbedded in its frame.

Why not create an air purifier that will use the natural air cleaning abilities of a plant and magnify them by over 1000 times. The natural filtration of the plant will be improved through a fan that will move the air past the leaves, through the soil and roots, and into a water tray that will trap the toxins.

A sleek new hybrid lighting design will use both natural light and solar powered LED's to light interior spaces. The light will be created to take advantage of natural sunlight and the potentials of fiber optic cables. The light will consist of a parabolic collector lens installed on the roof, which will focus the light through UV and infrared filters and on through a fiber optic cable to the hemispherical bottom lens. LED lights under the shade will provide light after the sun...

A paper strip test will be able to detect E. coli in water and indicate whether the water is safe for swimming. The strips will be coated with chemicals that change color in the presence of E. coli. They will be printed using conventional inkjet printer technology. Results will be returned within 30 minutes, with different colors representing the different concentrations and types of bacteria in the sample. It could be possible to create strips capable of indicating water...

Either you want to glue something, to bind up a book or anything else you always need a press. I attached the picture with three simple press designs. You can choose any. Each construction creation require only a few minutes.

Bait: 10 percent of boric acid mixed with 90 percent of the filler. Use mashed potatoes, biscuit crumbs, cereal or egg yolk as a filler. This "delicacy" is deadly for cockroaches. Moreover, if you add the yeast you can be sure that the insects try to eat this. Trap: Put a piece of white bread soaked with beer at the bottom of a jar (cockroaches are absolutely crazy about the beer smell!!!). Tie a bandage round the neck of the jar and soak its end with beer. Put the jar on the floor...

I'm such a forgetful person... I try to write down things and ideas (whatever I am thinking about, and don't want to forget) if they seem to be important. My idea is that it would be really nice to have a water proof notepad so as it is possible to make notes in the shower.

The idea is to have furniture that can be changed to suit a variety of needs while taking up the smallest amount of space possible. Such furniture will consist of a soft, flexible fabric, a central hinge, and an industrial zipper. It could be altered as the need arises, from a single bed to a cozy nook, and the side panels could even be raised to create a private space or dressing room.
