the monthly necessities⋆.ೃ࿔*:･📔🎀

just some things like appointments, trips, dates that i like to plan before the beginning of each month so that i can set off on the right foot for a successful month.

MANICURE AND PEDICURE ; 

i like to schedule an appointment before the month starts to either get myself a new set or start fresh and let my nails breathe. i like to keep my toes done regularly because it just makes me feel so feminine and clean. 

FACIALS AND OTHER TREATMENTS ; 

things like a hair trim (you can designate a day to do it yourself or get it done professionally) and facials can keep you looking and feeling your best. 

waxing appointments 

getting ur brows or lashes done 

facials 

hair trimming 

it’s important to set aside those dates because booking appointments and making time to groom and pamper yourself is something that u can easily sweep under the rug, especially if ur not in the habit of pampering urself. 

IMPORTANT DATES ; 

make sure to set out dates that you don’t wanna forget! like birthdays, lessons, tournaments and competitions. make sure to put the important things in ur monthly calendar. 

applications and deadlines also go in this category so make sure to include those in ur calendar because you don’t wanna forget those. 

SOCIAL LIFE ; 

set aside times to have dinner dates with ur friends, include the dates of parties and get togethers.

lunch date 

dinner date 

brunch 

sleepovers etc 

i try and keep at least one or two days where i can be fully available with my friends so we can keep friendship strong. this includes other social events so that then you can keep your social life alive and thriving! 

ONE DAYS ; 

one whole pamper/spa day (my tip is to do this on a saturday or a sunday) 

one whole day without using social media 

one day in which u spend time outdoors 

one day to go somewhere that you never went before 

one day to help someone else and be there for them 

TIPS AND TRICKS ; 

if ur putting everything into ur agenda or calendar and you somehow still manage to forget things, log things in ur alarm clock. for example if u have a daily alarm clock that rings at a certain time, write something along the lines of what you need to remember. 

like if my alarm goes off at 6:00 am and it says “good morning beautiful” on important dates i’d write “good morning beautiful, you have an appointment at 9:00”. that way it’s like an active reminder. 

do your best to make ur calendar and agenda aesthetically pleasing, i swear it makes you more productive and happy to get things done and be prepared.

Asra's idea of "tidy" is a room that's just cluttered enough to be cozy with the chaos just organized enough to function. Which is great for feeling safe and at home, but not super conducive for cleaning.

It is a Pain In The Neck to regularly clean around every knick-knack and launder the throws, blankets, pillows, scarves, quilts, and rugs draped over every surface, but as soon as you stop the dust piles up with a vengeance until neither of you can walk in without sneezing.

Thankfully, Asra has perfected a spell over time to whisk all the dust out of the room at once.

Not-so-thankfully, this results in two things happening: First, every small object gets tipped over with the force of all the dust getting sucked into the center of the room. Second, the resulting cloud of fine, concentrated dust gets blasted out the window over the back alleyway where any unfortunate passerby gets absolutely coated.

Your neighbors are under the impression that once a week at roughly the same time in the afternoon, your shop magically generates a mini dust storm. You don't know what to tell them.

Laundry Tips

I've been meaning to make an extensive list of tips as someone who worked in a laundromat. Some basics and a few things I noticed not many people know. This is also coming from someone who learned to take care of my clothes early on to save money cause we're all broke here, so these tips also save you money:

•If you're not sure how to separate colors, have 2 piles, lights and darks/brights. Obviously black clothes and bright colors like red or yellow should be separate from whites. But when you get any color clothing that's not a light color, or if you're not sure if it counts as "light", take a corner of the item and run it under warm water, then squeeze the water out and check if the water comes out with dye. If it does there's a high chance it will bleed dye on your clothes, so wash it with the darks.

•You do not need brand laundry detergent. Any laundry detergent will do. I experimented with a few brands and all brands cleaned just fine. Just know, if you use powder detergent, check the instructions because most have to be used with warm or hot water.

•Don't use that much soap. You're using too much. More soap doesn't mean more clean, the measurements on the container are made to be the exact amount you need. More soap means the machine has to work harder to rinse it out and you get soap residue more than likely, which can make you itchy or make allergies worse.

•You don't really need to wash anything in hot water regularly. Cold water is fine for most things, and makes your clothes last longer. You only really need hot water for things you clean less frequently or things that need disinfecting, like pillows, bath rugs, and comforters.

•With things that need disinfecting like bath rugs, pet blankets, reusable period pads/undies, and soiled sheets, use half a cup of hydrogen peroxide in the bleach tray. It's a color safe bleach so you can add it to any color item. For items that stink, like pet items or workout gear, add half a cup of vinegar instead of softener. It works better than the expensive "sport" detergent. Even on urine smells. I got this tip from a nurse that works in a hospice.

•To be honest, softener is unnecessary. You can soften clothes with half a cup of vinegar in the softener tray. You won't smell it once it's washed, in case you're worried about that. Softener is terrible for clothes, it actually ads a coating to fabric so if an item is supposed to pull sweat from your body, like workout gear, towels, or summer clothing, it looses the ability with just a couple washes with softener. And fire resistant clothing like baby clothes will lose the ability if washed with softener.

•If it's the smell you want, I recommend wool dryer balls. They help dry your clothes better anyway. But for scented clothes, add like 5 drops of any essential oil to a couple of them, or dip them in a hydrosol like rose water for a bit and then toss them in the dryer. I've heard people do this with perfume too, but I've never tried it.

•Treating stains is easier if you do it as soon as it happens. Or as soon as you get home. If you can't wash it right away, put a couple drops of laundry soap on the stain and dab it into the stain with a damp cloth, or use a stain spray if you have one. If the stain is cooking oil, hair products, or any type of grease, put a couple drops of Dawn dish soap on it. There's a reason they use it for oil spills. Just don't add any to your washing machine, it can cause the machine to suds up too much and break it. When you wash the item, check if the stain came out. If not, air dry it. Heat sets in stains so drying it in a machine will make the stain impossible to remove.

•If you have the space please air dry your clothes in the sun. Please. It's so good. It makes your clothes smell great, makes them last longer, helps remove stains, and brightens whites like bleach never could. I live in an apartment but I hang clothes next to the window in the spring/summer and its so good.

-Clothing labels lie. Here's a breakdown of what needs special care and what doesn't:

•Wool and silk are cold wash only. Hand wash if you can, but if you must machine wash, use cold ONLY. Use a delicate setting if your washer has one. It should be air dried. Get a drying rack. If you absolutely cannot air dry, dry wool clothing on cold/delicate for 10 minutes at a time until it's barely damp, then leave it open on your bed/couch or over a chair. Do not dry silk. It's expensive, why would you ruin it. Hang it on a hanger and hook it over your door if you have nowhere else to hang it. It dries quickly.

•Cotton can be washed any temp, but everything lasts longer in cold wash. Dry on normal, only dry on high if the item needs disinfecting or if the item is thick, like a pillow, bath rug, or comforter.

•Linen is indestructible. Linen is stonewashed to soften it, which means people put the fabric in large washing machines filled with rocks to beat it so it softens. Wash on high and dry on high to soften it more if the item is stiff, but a cold wash and normal dry is fine otherwise.

•Synthetics like polyester, acrylic, nylon, etc. are best washed cold and dried on normal/warm. More delicate items like thin blouses, stockings, and anything with lace is best air dried, but can be dried on cold/delicate if necessary. Synthetic clothes are more prone to staining so treat stains as soon as they happen.

•SOME dry clean only clothing is fine in the washer, but I'd say dry clean it if you're not sure. If it's an item with no lining it's usually fine, but always air dry these. Dresses, blouses or skirts with stiff linings will lose their shape in the washer. Easiest way to tell, if you turn a dry clean item inside out and there's a white paper like fabric lining certain areas it can't be machine washed. That's a stabilizer/interfacing and it will get ruined. Always dry clean suit jackets, coats, and anything labeled dry clean that's filled with feathers. Some suit pants can be machine washed, but make sure it doesn't have any interfacing. If a dry clean item has lots of colors on it, like a multicolored shirt, or a black dress with a white collar, dry clean it. It will get ruined otherwise.

A large rug will take up more space, but may be more comfortable on feet. If you have limited space, consider a smaller rug. -Think about how often the rug will be used. Are people going to walk on it or sit on it? Rugs with a high pile can be difficult to clean, while rugs with a low pile are easier to vacuum. -Be realistic in your expectations. A $20 synthetic rug may look nice in a showroom, but may not hold up over time in a busy home. Consider investing in something nicer if you plan on keeping the rug for an extended period of time.

Choosing the Room

There's no one right answer when it comes to rug care - it depends on the specific situation, the rug's material and construction, and your personal preferences. But there are a few general principles that will help you get started.

The first step is to decide which room in your home needs a rug. If you have an open floor plan with lots of natural light, go for a rug that will brighten up the room. If you have a more enclosed space, go for a lighter-colored rug to let the walls and ceilings show through.

Once you know which room your rug will be in, take into account the other furniture in the room. Do any of the pieces clash with the rug? Are any of them particularly stains or pet-friendly? Can any of them move around easily? If so, try choosing a rug that won't move or needs minimal care.

When it comes time to vacuum or mop your rug, always use a low setting and avoid using too much water or soap. Let the rug dry completely before moving or putting anything back on it. And lastly, remember to rotate your rugs every six months to keep them looking their best.

Location

The best way to care for your rug is to vacuum it every week and dry it completely after each use. If you have pets, be sure to keep their feet off the rug and remove any pet hair before guests arrive.

Placement

If you are buying a rug for the first time, be sure to measure the space you want it to cover. Rugs come in all different sizes and shapes, so make sure to choose one that will fit your needs. When it comes time to place your rug, avoid placing it on a hard, flat surface. Instead, place it on a rug pad or on some soft padding so that it doesn't damage the rug. Also, be careful not to move the rug too much; if it's moved more than once a week, it should be cleaned.

Maintenance

Here are some tips on how to keep your rug healthy and looking its best:

- Vacuum regularly to remove dirt, dust, and debris. - Protect your rug from high-heat areas with an anti-static mat. - Use a rug cleaner designed specifically for rugs. - Avoid using harsh detergents or cleaners that can damage the yarns in the rug.

Dealing with Accidents

If you have a rug in your home, it's important to take care of it. Accidents happen, and you need to be prepared for them. Here are four tips for caring for your rug:

1. Clean regularly - Rugs get dirty quickly, so it's important to clean them regularly. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment or a dust pan and brush.

2. Protect against spills - If there is any chance of a spill happening, protect your rug with a rug protector. A rug protector is a sheet of plastic that fits over the top of the rug and absorbs spills.

3. Check for damage - If there is any sign of wear or damage, it's time to replace your rug. Rug fibers can wear down over time, causing the rug to become thin and weak.

4. Store properly - Rugs should be stored in a dry area away from heat and direct sunlight.

Key pieces of furniture in room commonly found in a bedroom and tips for their placement and maintenance

When it comes to furniture in room, especially a bedroom, it's important to consider not only the aesthetic appeal but also the functionality and comfort. Here are some key pieces of furniture in room commonly found in a bedroom and tips for their placement and maintenance:

Bed: This is the centerpiece of the bedroom. It's important to leave enough space around the bed to allow for easy movement. A general rule of thumb is to have at least 24 to 36 inches (60 to 90 cm) of clearance on each side of the bed.

Nightstands: Typically, there are two nightstands, one on either side of the bed. They should be close enough to the bed to be easily accessible but not so close that they impede movement.

Dresser: This can be placed against a wall opposite the bed or in a corner, depending on the layout of the room. Make sure it's easily accessible and that the top is clear for placing items like a decorative tray, lamp, or mirror.

Wardrobe or Closet: These are usually placed along the walls, with the door opening into the room. Ensure there's enough space to open the doors fully.

Chair or Bench: A comfortable chair can be placed near a window or in a corner for reading or relaxation. A bench at the end of the bed can serve as a place to put on shoes or as additional seating.

Desk or Vanity: If space allows, a desk for work or a vanity for grooming can be added. These should have good lighting and be placed near an outlet for electronic devices.

Mirror: A full-length mirror can be placed on a wall or attached to a dresser or wardrobe. It's often placed in a way that reflects natural light.

Bookshelf or Cabinet: For additional storage or display, a bookshelf or cabinet can be added. These are typically placed against the wall or in a corner.

Rug: An area rug can be used to define the space and add warmth and comfort. It's usually placed beside the bed or under a seating area.

Lighting: Apart from the main ceiling light, consider bedside lamps for reading, wall sconces for ambient lighting, and a desk lamp if there's a workspace.

Maintenance Tips:

Regularly dust all furniture surfaces to prevent dirt buildup.

Wipe down wood furniture with a damp cloth and furniture polish to maintain the shine.

For upholstered furniture, vacuum to remove dust and allergens, and clean stains promptly with a suitable cleaner.

Keep an eye out for moisture and water damage, especially for wooden furniture.

Ensure all furniture is placed on a level surface and is stable to prevent accidents.

If furniture in room is scratched or damaged, consider using furniture in room repair kits or seeking professional help.

Remember, the arrangement of furniture in room should also consider the flow of the space and the comfort of the occupants. It's important to strike a balance between functionality and aesthetics.

How to Properly Use a Pocket Knife When Camping

A pocket knife is one of the most versatile tools you can bring on any camping trip. Whether you're setting up your tent, preparing meals, or doing general camp tasks, knowing how to use a pocket knife properly is essential for both safety and efficiency. In this guide, Vumaker will cover the key tips for safely and effectively using your pocket knife when camping.

1. Always Cut Away from Yourself

One of the most basic and important rules when using any knife is to always cut away from yourself. This minimizes the risk of injury and ensures you have full control over the blade. When performing tasks like whittling sticks or slicing food, point the blade in the opposite direction of your body. Vumaker offers a range of pocket knives with ergonomic handles, designed for easy and safe use in outdoor environments.

Tip: Hold the knife with a firm grip, and avoid using too much force to prevent slips.

2. Keep Your Knife Sharp

A sharp knife is a safe knife. Dull blades can cause more accidents since they require more force to cut through materials. Regularly sharpening your knife ensures it works efficiently and reduces the risk of slipping. At Vumaker, we provide high-quality knives that maintain their sharpness, but it's still important to bring a sharpening tool on long camping trips.

Advice: After every use, clean and check your knife’s sharpness to ensure it’s always ready for action.

3. Use the Right Knife for the Job

When camping, it’s important to use your pocket knife for tasks that match its size and design. For example, use your knife for smaller tasks like slicing food, cutting rope, or shaving wood. Avoid using it for heavy-duty tasks like chopping wood, which could damage the blade. Vumaker offers a variety of knives for different uses, ensuring you always have the right tool for the job.

Bonus: If you need a more rugged option, explore the multi-tool knives available at Vumaker, which include additional tools for more demanding tasks.

4. Safely Fold and Store the Knife

When you’re done using your pocket knife, make sure to safely fold it and store it in a secure place. Never leave an open knife lying around the campsite, as it poses a danger to others. Many Vumaker pocket knives come with secure locking mechanisms that make folding them easy and safe.

Tip: Consider keeping your knife in a protective sheath when not in use, to prevent damage and accidents.

5. Use Your Knife for Fire Starting

Your pocket knife can be a handy tool for starting fires in the wild. By using the back of the blade to strike a ferro rod, you can create sparks to ignite dry tinder. Just make sure to avoid using the sharpened edge to strike, as this can dull the blade. Vumaker pocket knives are made from high-quality steel, making them suitable for fire-starting in emergency situations.

Advice: Practice this skill before your camping trip to ensure you can confidently start a fire if necessary.

6. Maintain Your Knife After Each Use

Outdoor conditions can expose your knife to dirt, moisture, and sap, which can affect its performance. Make sure to clean and dry your knife after each use to prevent rust and wear. You can use a cloth to wipe the blade clean, and if needed, apply a light coat of oil to keep it rust-free. Vumaker knives are built to withstand tough conditions, but regular maintenance will keep them in optimal condition.

Pro Tip: Store your knife in a dry place when not in use, to prevent corrosion.

Conclusion

Using a pocket knife properly when camping ensures both safety and efficiency. From cutting away from your body to maintaining the sharpness of your blade, these tips will help you get the most out of your knife on your next outdoor adventure. Explore the wide range of high-quality pocket knives available at Vumaker to find the perfect companion for your camping trip.

Wool Carpet Cleaning in Scottsdale, AZ: How to Keep Your Wool Carpets Looking Luxurious

Wool carpets are a luxurious addition to any home, offering unparalleled softness, natural beauty, and exceptional durability. However, to keep them looking their best, proper maintenance and cleaning are essential. In Scottsdale, AZ, where dust and debris are common, maintaining the pristine appearance of wool carpets can be a challenge. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about wool carpet cleaning in Scottsdale, from the benefits of wool carpets to professional cleaning tips and why investing in expert cleaning services is worth it.

Why Choose Wool Carpets?

Wool is one of the most popular choices for carpeting due to its many benefits:

Natural Beauty and Comfort: Wool fibers are naturally soft and add an element of luxury to any room. The texture and warmth of wool carpets make them perfect for cozy living areas and bedrooms.

Durability: Wool carpets are highly resilient and can withstand heavy foot traffic, making them an excellent choice for both residential and commercial spaces.

Eco-Friendly: Wool is a renewable resource, making it an environmentally friendly flooring option. It’s biodegradable and has a lower environmental impact compared to synthetic carpets.

Stain Resistance: Wool fibers naturally repel spills and stains, but proper care is still essential to maintain this benefit.

However, the key to enjoying all these benefits is regular and proper cleaning, especially in Scottsdale’s dry and dusty environment.

Challenges of Maintaining Wool Carpets in Scottsdale, AZ

Scottsdale’s climate poses unique challenges for wool carpet maintenance:

Dust and Debris: The dry, desert environment means dust is always present. Dust can settle into wool fibers, dulling the appearance of your carpet over time.

High Foot Traffic: Homes and businesses in Scottsdale often experience high foot traffic, which can lead to dirt and debris being ground into carpets.

Humidity and Spills: Although Scottsdale is dry most of the year, occasional humidity or spills can lead to mold or mildew growth in wool carpets if not addressed promptly.

Regular cleaning is crucial to combat these challenges, ensuring your wool carpets remain vibrant, soft, and luxurious.

DIY Tips for Cleaning Wool Carpets

While professional cleaning is recommended, regular maintenance at home can help extend the life of your wool carpets. Here are some tips to keep them looking their best:

Vacuum Regularly: Vacuum your wool carpets at least once a week to remove dirt and dust. Use a vacuum with adjustable height settings to avoid damaging the fibers.

Spot Clean Spills Immediately: Blot spills with a clean cloth or paper towel—never rub, as this can push the stain deeper into the fibers. Use a gentle, wool-friendly cleaner if needed, but avoid harsh chemicals.

Rotate Furniture: To prevent uneven wear, occasionally move or rotate furniture. This helps keep high-traffic areas from becoming too worn.

Avoid Excess Moisture: Wool is naturally resistant to moisture, but excessive water can lead to mildew. Use minimal water when cleaning and ensure carpets are thoroughly dried.

Use Area Rugs: Place area rugs in high-traffic zones to protect your wool carpet and reduce wear and tear.

Why Professional Wool Carpet Cleaning is Essential

While routine maintenance is important, professional cleaning offers a deeper level of care. Here’s why investing in expert wool carpet cleaning in Scottsdale is worth it:

Deep Cleaning: Professionals use specialized equipment to remove deeply embedded dirt, dust, and allergens that regular vacuuming can’t reach.

Stain Removal: Expert cleaners have access to wool-safe cleaning agents that can tackle tough stains without damaging the fibers.

Protects the Carpet’s Lifespan: Regular professional cleaning helps maintain the carpet’s integrity, ensuring it stays beautiful and soft for years.

Mold and Mildew Prevention: Professional cleaning helps prevent mold and mildew growth, a common issue in wool carpets exposed to moisture.

Eco-Friendly Practices: Many professional cleaners in Scottsdale use eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are safe for your family, pets, and the environment.

Choosing the Right Wool Carpet Cleaner in Scottsdale, AZ

When selecting a wool carpet cleaning service, consider the following:

Experience and Expertise: Choose a company with experience in handling wool carpets, as they require special care compared to synthetic fibers.

Eco-Friendly Cleaning Solutions: Opt for cleaners who use gentle, eco-friendly products that won’t harm the delicate wool fibers.

Customer Reviews: Check reviews and testimonials to ensure the company has a good reputation for quality service.

Licensed and Insured: Make sure the cleaning service is licensed and insured, providing peace of mind that your carpets are in good hands.

Final Thoughts

Wool carpets are a stunning and practical addition to any home or business, but they require specific care to maintain their luxurious appearance. With Scottsdale’s unique climate, regular professional cleaning is essential to keep your wool carpets looking their best. By combining routine maintenance with expert cleaning services, you can enjoy the beauty and comfort of wool carpets for many years to come.

Whether you’re dealing with stubborn stains or just want to refresh the look of your carpets, consider investing in professional wool carpet cleaning in Scottsdale, AZ, and experience the difference that proper care can make.

The Advantages of Home Washable Runner Rugs

The primary benefit of opting for a home washable runner rug is the ease of maintenance. Here’s why these rugs are a fantastic addition to your home:

Convenience of Cleaning: Traditional rugs often require professional cleaning services or cumbersome spot treatments. Home washable runner rugs, on the other hand, can be cleaned in your washing machine. This convenience saves you time and money, allowing you to address spills and stains quickly.

Durability: Home washable runner rugs are designed to withstand frequent washing without losing their shape or color. Made from high-quality, durable materials, these rugs are perfect for high-traffic areas such as hallways, entryways, and kitchens.

Hygienic Benefits: Regular washing of your rugs helps maintain a cleaner and healthier home environment. Removing dust, allergens, and bacteria from your rugs reduces the risk of allergies and improves indoor air quality.

Cost-Effective: Investing in a home washable runner rug can be more cost-effective in the long run. Since these rugs are designed for easy cleaning and maintenance, you’re less likely to need replacements or professional cleaning services.

Versatility: Home washable runner rugs come in a variety of styles, colors, and patterns. This versatility allows you to match them with different decor themes and rooms in your home.

Choosing the Right Home Washable Runner Rug

Selecting the perfect home washable runner rug involves considering several factors to ensure it meets your needs and preferences. Here’s what to look for:

Material: The material of the rug plays a significant role in its durability and ease of cleaning. Common materials for washable runner rugs include polyester, nylon, and polypropylene. These materials are known for their stain resistance and ability to hold up well in the washing machine.

Size: Measure the area where you plan to place the rug to determine the appropriate size. Home washable runner rugs come in various lengths and widths, so ensure you select one that fits the dimensions of your space and complements your room layout.

Design and Color: Choose a design and color that enhances your home’s decor. Whether you prefer a bold pattern or a subtle design, make sure the rug complements your existing furnishings and adds to the overall aesthetic of the room.

Backing: Check the backing of the rug to ensure it is non-slip and suitable for your flooring type. Many home washable runner rugs feature a backing that provides additional grip, preventing slips and ensuring the rug stays in place.

Washability: Confirm that the rug is indeed machine washable by checking the manufacturer’s care instructions. Some rugs may require specific washing settings or air drying, so it’s essential to follow these guidelines for optimal results.

How to Care for Your Home Washable Runner Rug

Proper care and maintenance are key to keeping your home washable runner rug looking its best. Here are some tips to help you maintain your rug’s appearance and longevity:

Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum your rug regularly to remove dust and debris. This prevents dirt from settling into the fibers and helps keep the rug clean between washes.

Spot Cleaning: Address spills and stains as soon as they occur. Use a mild detergent and a clean cloth to blot the affected area, working from the outside in to prevent spreading.

Follow Washing Instructions: Always adhere to the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Use the recommended water temperature and detergent, and avoid overloading your washing machine to ensure the rug is cleaned thoroughly.

Drying: After washing, allow the rug to air dry completely. Avoid using a dryer, as high heat can damage the rug’s fibers and backing. Lay the rug flat on a clean surface or hang it to dry.

Rotate Regularly: Rotate your rug periodically to ensure even wear and prevent fading in high-traffic areas.

Where to Find Home Washable Runner Rugs

Finding the right home washable runner rug is easy with a variety of options available online and in stores. Here are some places to start your search:
