#sofa come bed low price

[urbanwood02]

[ghosts-bandwagon]

omg, imagine how the 141+ könig would react if reader fell asleep on them? not in a relationship i mean, maybe they are just sitting on the couch in the common room and reader is tired and falls asleep on one of them?

This is precious and also a mood lmao

Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley:

Doesn’t move a single. fucking. inch.

The man goes rigid in his attempt not to wake you, he knows how hard you work so it’s no wonder you’re nodding off in the common area, so to him, there’s nothing wrong with getting some rest

So he’s sitting there with his arms crossed over his chest, legs spread (as usual), and he’s fighting the urge to rest his head on yours, not his fault you seemed so comfortable

He’s glaring at every poor bastard and dares them to even try and make a comment

Needless to say, your sleep is undisturbed

Eventually you wake up and start apologizing profusely

“Don’t worry about it, sergeant. Just get to bed yeah?”

As you walked away, he rolled his shoulders and rubbed his neck

John ‘Soap’ MacTavish:

He’s got his arms on the back of the sofa and behind your head and he starts to feel a weight against his chest

Then he looks down and sees you nestled up against him, your head on his chest and he’s biting the inside of his cheek to keep from making noise

You. are. precious.

100% takes a selfie with you (and Gaz in the background throwing a peace sign)

After the initial thrill settles down, his arm that was draped along the back of the sofa has now come to rest against your own

You’re so warm and the weight of you on his chest is so grounding and soothing, the steady rise and fall of your chest, it’s all so relaxing

Soon enough, he’s nodding off too and he winds up with his head almost draped over the back of the sofa, snores coming out of his mouth

(Gaz definitely filmed it)

Eventually his snoring wakes you up and you can’t help the embarrassment at falling asleep against your teammate like that, still you felt bed that you essentially trapped him there so you gently shook him awake

He massaged the back of his neck with a groan and a wince, your hands replaced his as you gently ushered him upright,

“Come on, Soap, I owe you.”

John Price:

He’s low key melting as soon as he feels your head on his shoulder, he takes a quick glance at you and chuckles

He lets you have a few minutes, knowing full well how tired you are, before he gently jostles his shoulder to softly rouse you before you dozed off deeper,

“Think it’s time to hit the sack, don’t you?” His voice is low as he leans in close,

“I’m sorry, sir.”

“Don’t be. Get some rest, see you in the morning.”

He’s kind of touched and honored that you feel safe enough to fall asleep against him like that, honestly, he would’ve let you sleep there as long as you wanted

But he knows the comfort of one’s own bed is second to none, and he’d hate for you to wake up with a kink in your neck

And maybe his bones were getting a little stiff and uncomfortable from having to stay still for so long

Kyle ‘Gaz’ Gerrick:

He’s smiling softly to himself and resting his head on yours

He does that thing where you shift in your seat a bit to get comfortable and he shuffles a little lower so he can rest his head against yours

And he falls asleep too!

And honestly it’s the best sleep either of you has ever had because no one has been successful in waking you up, short of shouting or dumping water on you

You wind up waking up first and it’s already morning, you stretch and gently shake him awake,

“Gaz, we slept through the night.”

“Fuck.” He groaned, you laughed quietly and took his arm to stand him up,

“I think we’ve got just enough time to sleep a little longer.”

“What’s the point? We’re already awake.” He reasoned with a yawn and a stretch, “Come on, I’ll make coffee and then we can hit the showers yeah?”

König:

Doesn’t move a single muscle. Like Ghost, he gets quite stiff at first as soon as he feels your head against his arm (even sitting you down you barely reach his shoulder)

So he shuffles a little in his seat until your head is at a more comfortable angle and is resting against his shoulder

But now this means that his spine is curving in uncomfortable shapes, and a good portion of his butt isn’t even on the couch anymore

He wouldn’t dare wake you but holy shit his back hurts

So he slowly and carefully maneuvers you into his arms so now he’s sitting normally and he’s got you on his lap with your head tucked against his chest

He’s got his arms around you to support you and then he realizes that it’s not that much more comfortable

Eventually he gives up and winds up carrying you to your room

You wake up the next morning with a cup of coffee on your nightstand and a sticky note with your name on it (and a little heart)

Short n’ Sweet 🌤️ fem!reader x John Price

╰┈ .𖥔 ݁ ˖ thinking about torturing (teasing) John with some Sabrina Carpenter, MDNI/18+ only, breeding kink lol

mmmmm I’m thinkin about your handsome handyman returning home from deployment in late summer, immediately throwing himself into every home project and ticking off all the boxes on your honey-do list. and while you spend the day cleaning inside, blasting music and dancing about your house - John busies himself with an oil change to your car.

thinkin about twirling your hips as you fold laundry, the carpeted floor buzzing beneath your feet from the thumping bass and you are getting into it, flipping your hair as you unapologetically and very loudly sing about espresso.

thinkin about how you’re too distracted by the music to hear the slam of a car hood, or the familiar steps of heavy boots, or the opening of your front door.

thinkin about John leaning against the doorway, thick arms crossed with a satisfied and eye-crinkling grin as he admires your oblivious form. and it’s not till you hit em with a couple body rolls on the beat that you turn around, damn near jumping out of your skin and whipping him with a kitchen towel when his presence scares you half to death.

John just laughs, reaches out to you in apology and when he finds purchase on your plush hips he mutters something low against your temple like, “don’t stop on my account.”

and part of you wants to push him away but it’s so hard, it’s so hard when he’s like this - his sunkissed, burly chest on full display, sheened with dampened curls while his sweat-drenched shirt is likely discarded somewhere on your front lawn. you run your hands up his pecs to grip the back of his neck and god he smells, he smells like oil and sweat and hard work and John and it’s stupid how intoxicating it is. and he just grips you harder, pulls you close till you feel his belt buckle against your abdomen and you're finding it harder to ignore how low his jeans are hanging on his hips.

thinkin about how he starts to kiss you, dipping his head down to start off soft and slow but he grows hungrier by the second, and that’s when one of his hands comes up to grip the back of your neck, maneuvering your head so you can take his tongue as far as he wants. but before he can get you lying on the sofa, you perk up at the sound of Bed Chem, giggling as you try to get out of his firm hold. you beg and you plead, telling him “I love this song!” and “dance with me!” - and he just shakes his head and smiles, loosening his grip to give his pretty girl a twirl.

thinkin about dancing around him, grinding on his side and poking his nose at

“Who’s the cute guy with the wide, blue eyes and the big bad mm? Like”

until he's pulling your back to his chest, pressing and grinding his crotch against your ass and sweetly kissing your fingers. you make a move to grab his hands, placing your own on top and running them over your chest and down your body when you sing

“How you talk so sweet when you’re doin bad things, that’s Bed Chem”

and when his head dips back down to mouth at your neck you almost let him get what he wants, until you hear that familiar acoustic strumming, and knowing John? oh, you’re already giggling to yourself as you work your way out of his grip again.

thinkin about torturing the absolute hell out of him. twisting in his embrace to innocently interlock your fingers and sway from side to side, occasionally leaning up on your tippy toes to kiss his nose. despite your constant singing he doesn't seem to be paying all that much attention to the lyrics, until...

"One of me is cute, but two though? Give it to me, baby"

a look of neutral shock stills his face and you cannot help but laugh. in his startled state you take advantage of him, letting go of his hands to skip around the room and dance like you've had one too many. at some point he starts grinning from ear to ear, watching you like a hawk and slowly stalking your way as you arch your back and shake your ass, or drop to your knees and crawl on the ground...and it's not till you look him dead in the eye and dramatically sing

"Adore me, hold me and explore me, mark your territory, tell me I'm the only, only, only, only one"

that he jumps over the couch to snatch you up; you scream in delight, jumping to your feet and running around the coffee table to avoid his hands and your voice shakes with laughter as you try to get the rest out

"Adore me, hold me and explore me, I'm so fuckin' horny, tell m—"

"Had enough of this," John growls through his amusement and bounds through the living room, boots echoing right behind you until his fingers grip your waist roughly and you squeal, happily squirming and giggling in his sweaty grip.

John is panting as he chuckles, and like an animal he takes you down to the floor with a growl - maneuvering you under him and he’s just got you caged there, his thick, healthy form the only thing in your line of sight. beneath the weight of his body you writhe, and as he grabs both of your roaming wrists in one hand, pinning them above your head, his other hand slinks downwards, down down past your tits and your waist and smooths over the sweet, soft pudge of your tummy. his lips press to the corner of your open mouth and he keeps going further, rough fingertips slithering underneath your waistband and that’s when his voice is low - that familiar gravel giving rise to goosebumps on your skin while his breath warms your lips.

“Oh I’ll hold you to it, sweetheart.”

Cat reader headcanons - TF141/König*Reader

my cat café AU hcs makes me wonder what will happens if reader is cat and TF141&König is your owner.

I love cats.

Price

• use snacks as a reward or enticement to you

• buys a lot of cat apparel and clothes, if you let him put those on you you can get extra snacks 

• knows which spot you like to be pet/scratch the most

• talks to you with that low and alluring tone, bait you to come near him, and you won’t be let go by him for the next few hours

• loves to whisper pet names to you whenever he gets the chance, if you bump your head gently at him, he will laugh and hug you into his arms

• no matter whether you sleep with him in human form or cat form, you need to tell him if you need to go to the toilet during the night, or he will drag you back into his arms even if he’s still half in dreams

Soap

• makes “pss pss” noises to call you

• you will have 100+ nicknames named by him, and some of them are long as hell, but he will write them down

• can’t help but take pictures every second he’s with you, and forces others to see them and ramble about how cute you are all day

• you sit on his table when he’s sketching (even if you don’t want to he will beg you to), watching him draw the 1000th sketches of you (including your cat form and human form)

• if you sleep with him in cat form, he will put you on his chest; if you sleep with him in human form, tucks your head close to his chest too, he just loves to have his most important person (cat?) stays near to his heart

Gaz

• can’t reject you if you look at him with bright eyes and demanding for snacks

• searching what trending among cat owners every day, glad that he’s wealthy because he will buy everything he thinks will be good for you

• his social media used to be his selfies or life recordings, after he adopted you, it’s flooded with your photos

• gets a locket necklace with your name and photos, wears it 24/7 (and it’s more convenient for him to show you off too, like “Hey this is my honey” and opens the locket)

• you are his best cheerer when he's gaming, grabs you and kisses you when he wins

• he falls asleep fast, but he likes to knead your cat beans (paws) and caress your belly first, he sleeps peacefully because he knows when he wakes up, he will see you turn into human form and squeeze your cheeks near his

Ghost

• if he’s chilling on the sofa, he will snatch you into his lap, and stroke you absentmindedly while watching TV

• unaware of himself is covered by your fur from head to toe until someone points out

• has a photo of you in his wallet so he can see you whenever he misses you

• use your fluffy cat belly as a sleep mask when he’s napping

• On those nights he can’t sleep, he will tell you stories or what he's thinking while you respond with meows or purrs, when he feels better and starts feeling sleepy, he will tell you to turn into human form so he can big spoon you

König

• unsure of how to take care of a cat first, so when he found out that you can shift into human form, he heaved a sigh of relief because you are able to tell him what you need

• goes to the pet shop, stares at the shelf full of toys and clothes, imagining which will fit you the most, and eventually buys all of them because he’s unable to choose the best one

• buries his face into your fur and inhales deeply, this is how he relief his stress

• will put away knives or sharp objects because he doesn’t want you to get hurt when you’re running in the house

• likes to sleep with you, but he prefers you sleep with him in human form because he’s afraid that he will crush you accidentally. If you sleep with him in cat form, he will put a cat bed beside his pillow; if you sleep in human form, he will inhale your scent as a sleep remedy.

hiii i was wondering if you had any thoughts on how price or soap from COD would be as cg's with a sick little like they have a small cold? (i've been thinkin bout it cause it's tha season i have one lol) it's ok if not! -🐻

(PS, i hope you're doin good :D)

Hiii 🐻!!! M hoping these okay as I'm feeling small an these are kinda just general sick ones not just focusing on a cold as I've been feeling really unwell 😅 I done Price, Soap, Ghost and Gaz for these.

John Price

Price is such a papa an I definitely thinks he knows all the best remedies to feel better.

He would gives you all the cuddles!!!

If you get sad or slip younger when sick (like I do) he will come up with brilliant ideas to distract you, this might be watching a movie or show or doing some low effort arts and crafts.

Makes you your comfort food.

He makes sure there are always tissues, a bucket, water. Anything you might need near by to where the two of you are camping out, be that bed or the sofa, he is prepared for whatever the situation.

Big time encourager of naps to help you get better.

Johnny 'Soap' McTavish

I feel like Soap would definitely makes lots of jokes to start with about not wanting to get sick from you but he would also then quickly go against anything and everything he said by cuddling up with you.

Plays/fusses your hair.

Soap has definitely messaged or phoned Price for advice before. "What medicine should I give them" vibes.

Trys to keep you excited, he doesn't want to to feel down whilst sick :(

When he realises your sick pretty much the first thing he does is go and get supplies. (He was not at all prepared and definitely panicked when you mentioned not feeling well.)

Simon 'Ghost' Riley

Ghost is very subtle with his affection. Now that's definitely not to say that he doesn't care but he is less out going about it over the others.

Sits with you, when you fall asleep he'll stay up for a while to make sure your definitely okay. Leaving a gentle kiss on your forehead once you've fallen asleep >

I feel like Ghost would make brilliant soup if you wanted it.

The definition of "you shouldn't be moving about so much if you're not feeling well kiddo. Why don't we watch something?"

He really just wants to make sure you're resting so you get better as soon as possible.

Kyle 'Gaz' Garrick

As for Gaz I definitely see him panicking a bit. Logically he knows you'll be absolutely fine but he hates seeing you sick and unhappy.

He basically just sticks by your side the whole time your sick.

He will bring small toys to where you're resting. (This has ended with you falling asleep with a few toys practically still in your hand as the two of you were playing before hand.)

Watching shows/movies on his tablet/laptop/phone. Again this usually happens until you fall asleep 😂

It Must Come To An End (analoroceit)

I know it's the end of the week, but I finally managed to get something done for analoroceit week!! Thanks @loganisanobody for hosting this awesome event! This is actually the prequel to an au I've been planning for a while, the title is from Mamma Mia, you'll see why...

I used the day 2 prompt: Argument/taking sides.

Writing taglist: @iclaimedtobethebetterbard

It was ironic, Virgil thought, that he worried so much about everything, but he hadn’t seen this coming.

He and Janus had been arguing more often recently, over every conceivable thing. What to eat for dinner, the price of their dates. It didn’t help that Virgil had felt more irritable than usual lately, so even the clinking of Janus's spoon against his coffee mug was enough to set him on edge.

"Will you stop that?" Virgil snapped one morning, when the sound of Janus stirring his drink became too much to bear.

"Well, I'm sorry for stirring my coffee in my own kitchen," Janus shot back with a glare.

"You could at least be quieter about it, you're giving me a headache," Virgil grumbled.

"You're welcome to sleep at your own apartment if you wish," Janus said shortly.

The only reason Virgil had stayed at Janus's last night was because they'd finally managed to schedule a date with both Roman and Logan, and afterwards the four of them had curled up in Janus's king-sized bed. It would've been nice, if Janus didn't keep complaining about Virgil’s cold elbows poking him, and Virgil himself wasn't plagued with waves of nausea throughout the night.

Virgil was about to retort, but he was interrupted.

"Everything alright?" Roman's voice came from the doorway. He was leaning sleepily against the doorframe, looking gorgeous in the baggy white T-shirt he'd slept in, with his hair tousled and falling into his eyes.

Virgil momentarily forgot about his annoyance, until Janus spoke again.

"It's fine, Virgil is just feeling a little tired." His tone was smooth, as if nothing was amiss between the two of them.

Roman didn't seem to notice anything was off, because he kissed Janus's cheek before he walked over to massage Virgil’s shoulders.

"How are you feeling, love? Perhaps we could get Logan to give you a proper massage later."

Virgil sighed, relaxing into his touch. "I'd like that. Where is he, anyway? It's not like him to be the last one up."

Roman shrugged. "Maybe he partied a little too hard last night and needs to sleep it off."

Virgil snickered. They'd only been out to a restaurant, and he doubted the singular glass of wine Logan had would be enough to bother him.

"I can assure you, I am not hungover in the slightest," Logan said, walking into the kitchen already dressed in a black polo shirt and trousers from the small supply of clothes he kept at Janus's place. He gave Roman a look of disapproval and headed over to the fridge. "I simply wanted to get dressed before breakfast."

Roman just chuckled and made his way over to Logan. He kissed him sweetly and Logan immediately melted into it.

Virgil noticed Janus watching the two of them with a soft expression, and sent a smile in his direction. No matter how much the two of them fought, they both loved their boyfriends. Virgil hoped that whatever happened between him and Janus wouldn't end up hurting either of them.

-

The end had still come as a shock. When Janus said they should break up, Virgil had stared at him in silence for a few moments, unsure how to respond.

The next few days were rough. Virgil stayed at his own apartment, and barely responded to any of Roman or Logan's texts. He was just glad the two of them weren't breaking up with him as well.

He was sitting on the sofa when he heard a knock at his door. The TV was on so his apartment wouldn't feel too silent, but he had the volume too low to actually listen to what the hosts of whatever boring talkshow were saying as he scrolled through Tumblr on his phone.

When Virgil opened his door, his eyes widened in surprise. He'd known that one of his boyfriends would probably want to visit him soon, but he hadn’t expected this. Roman stood there, looking devastated. His hair was messed up, and his face was blotchy with tear-stains.

"I just broke up with Janus," Roman said.

"Oh," was all Virgil said, before he wrapped Roman in his arms. Roman crumpled into the hug, as Virgil was the only thing keeping him standing, and sobbed into his shoulder.

Once Roman calmed down a little bit, Virgil guided him inside and put the kettle on to make Roman's favourite herbal tea.

"Are you okay?" Roman asked Virgil when he sat down, which was absurd because Roman had been the one crying into his shoulder just a moment ago. The last thing he should be doing was worrying about Virgil.

Virgil just shrugged. "I didn't mean to make you choose me over him," he said quietly, dipping his head.

Roman sighed, then leaned over to press a kiss to the side of Virgil’s head. "You didn't make me do anything. I was mad at him for the way he treated you, but I made my own decision. Besides... me and Janus have been fighting for a while now."

"Oh?" Virgil raised his head slightly.

"Yeah," Roman said. "We tried to tone it down when you and Lo were around, but he's really been getting on my nerves, and I know I've been getting on his."

Virgil felt bile rise up in his throat, though he was sure it wasn't at the statement.

It must've shown on his face, because Roman looked at him with concern. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, just feeling a little sick, is all," Virgil said.

"Do you need to go to a doctor?" Roman asked.

"No, I'll be fine," Virgil said. "It'll pass."

-

Virgil paced around his small bathroom. He was sure he was fine. He'd just been feeling a bit under the weather recently, there was no way-

But it was best to be sure.

He couldn’t bring himself to glance at the pregnancy test on the counter. After everything that had happened with Janus, the last thing he needed was something else to worry about.

Finally, he convinced himself to look down and check the result.

"Shit."

| @zoklaanogar sent: ❛  i'm sorry, i didn't know where else to go.  ❜

{☾} Alicent sighed, leaning to the side as she removed her slippers, setting them neatly under the side of her sofa. Her back was to the shadows of her bedroom, believing herself well and truly alone. The fire crackled and a pitcher of spiced wine waited for her on her table. In the matter of weeks, losses continuously spilled into her cup. Viserys. Lucerys. Jon. Jahaerys. She didn't know how much more she could take.

Pouring herself a glass of wine, she takes a long draw, tilting her head back as the warmth spread from her throat into her belly--grounding her. Her gown falls to the floor in a puddle of blue silk, leaving her standing in her chemise--readying herself for bed.

When she turns for her bed, setting her glass down, she sees him and her heart JUMPS into her throat. She can barely pick out his features in the dark, but it's the barest sign of his curls that keep her from screaming out for her guards.

After the murder of her grandson, perhaps SURPRISING her this was was not the best plan.

|| ❛  i'm sorry, i didn't know where else to go.  ❜

Alicent's heart raced, her breathing rapid as she approached him. A million questions lingering in her mind, his features becoming more recognizable in the dim light. Her hand reached out, resting a cool palm against his cheek. Tears welled up in her eyes, searching his in return. He left her. He LEFT her. For Rhaenyra.

The memory of his departure slams into her and she withdraws her hand from his face, her brows knitting together.

"Did Daemon send you here to KILL me? Would that sate his desire for revenge? Was my grandson's head not price enough?" She accused, her voice low and hoarse. Her lips purse and she shakes her head, walking away from him--though every cell in her body screamed at her to keep her eyes on him. "Did you offer to come here and kill me?"

Her hand reaches for her glass and pauses--instead pouring a second glass for Jon. Never let it be said that she wouldn't be gracious to an ASSASSIN. Even one who used to love her so. Keeping a respectable distance from him, she pushes the glass towards him, grasping her own against her chest.

"Will you at least make it quick? One last request from the woman who loved you?"

A Guide To The Types Of Beds

Want to learn about the different types of beds? This article is the perfect stop for you. Read the visit site here following to know about the types of beds available in the market.

Are you furnishing your bedroom and wondering about the type of beds you should buy? Are you confused by the wide range of choices available in a bedroom furniture store? Worry not; this guide will help you find the perfect bed for your room. In this article you will learn about the various types of beds available in the market. Adjustable beds are the most frequently purchased beds. This is mainly because these beds can be adjusted to suit your needs. If you are a long sufferer of back pain and find little rest on a flat bed, you can pull up the adjustable bed to get it at the correct angle for your back. People with many other medical conditions like hernia and varicose veins also opt for these beds to get optimum comfort.

The adjustable bed meets all your requirements and provides you with a good night's sleep. Air beds are another type of comfortable beds. These beds are very light in weight and portable, making them perfect for campers. The air beds are regular in size and are capable of distributing the body weight evenly. Another advantage of using air beds is that they keep the dust mites away. Thus for those allergic to dust mites, air beds can be a good solution. Electronic pumps that inflate the air beds are widely available and pump in air in very little time. If you have children in your family, you may consider purchasing kids beds from a furniture store. Markets are flooded with children beds these days. These beds come in attractive colors and looks and are great to tempt your kid into sleeping at night. Also, these beds give due importance to security of children by providing safety rails and maintaining a low height. These beds can be assembled and dismantled easily, thus allowing you to carry them to a new location easily.

If you are a big fan of comfortable beds, you must try to purchase a water bed. This modern bedroom furniture is unique in that it offers heat flow movement that relaxes the body. These beds need to be of a very good quality to ensure that they do not burst accidentally. This soft and cushioned bed is the favorite of many aiming for a sound sleep. The mattresses of water beds are made of polyester filaments and special foams are used to make the bed so comfortable. Sofa beds are also very popular, particularly among the young crowd.

This is because they can be folded up to become sofa for the day and normal sized bed for night. Thus not only do you get two furniture sets for one price, you also save a lot of valuable space. Whenever, we enter a bedroom, the first thing that attracts attention is the bed. Unless the bed is chosen well, the whole room looks lackluster. Many types of beds are finding their way in the furniture store.  Depending upon the decor of your house and the kind of comfort level you crave, you can select the bedroom set that adds to the beauty of your house while providing you a comfortable resting place.

No matter how she tried, McKenna just couldn’t sleep. Not with Loki and his magic sleeping in the next room. Even from her bedroom, she could see the faint green glow emanating from the front door. Sealed with magic. Unbelievable.

She tried not to think about what happened in New York. It didn’t help. She still couldn’t sleep.

What sort of help could a god need from her? Shouldn’t it be the other way around? After all, he was a god and she was, as he liked to put it, a Midgardian. He originally came to Earth with the intention of ruling over them. He killed something like eighty people in two days.

And now he was crashing in her living room.

Terrific.

Cinder padded into the room and startled her as he jumped onto the bed. Nonplussed, he curled into a medium-sized ball of gray fur and closed his eyes. Nothing kept him from sleeping. Not even a murderous god just down the hall.

Her iPhone was in her purse. Unfortunately, her purse was on the kitchen table, along with the mail. She had another cordless in her room, but the one Loki vanished into nothingness was the main unit, and he took the base as well. So much modern technology and it was all out of her reach.

“But maybe he’s asleep. And I can just sneak into the kitchen, grab my phone, and get him out of here,” she whispered to Cinder, who didn’t even open his eyes.

Her mind made up, McKenna kicked off the sheet and smothered the yelp when her bare feet hit the cool floorboards. The A/C was set for sixty-five degrees at night, which made the apartment cold enough for her to sleep with a blanket, but it also made the floors as cold as they would be in the winter.

Mindful of the one creaky board in front of the linen closet, McKenna crept, her back pressed flat against the wall, toward the kitchen. As she neared the living room, she heard the sounds of deep, even breathing. Mr. Loki was asleep. Thank God. She felt ridiculous for sneaking about her own apartment, but truth be told, he scared her to a certain degree and she didn't think anyone could blame her. 

The faint green glow around the door gave off enough light to make out his outline on the sofa. He sat up, his head back against the cushion, his eyes closed. His hands lay on his stomach, fingers intertwined, rising and falling with each low breath.

She rounded the corner, sucking in a sharp breath as her pinky toe caught the corner of the wall and pain exploded through her entire foot as if she’d stepped on a hot coal. Tears gathered in her eyes and she bit down hard on the inside of her cheek to keep from yelling out the multitude of swear words bursting through her brain.

Still, Loki breathed evenly. Deeply. Still asleep.

When she was able to move again, she reached down to rub the aching toe, and then continued sidling into the kitchen. The table was on the far side of the kitchen, up against the window, where the morning light was pure and bright and she would sit and sip her coffee while Joe read the sports page.

Sure. Why couldn’t this guy have landed here when Joe was still here? He’d probably get rid of him no problem.

But Joe wasn’t there. Some of his things still hung in the closets and the one dresser was held a bunch of clothes he didn’t wear any longer, but other than that, he was completely moved out. He was supposed to come by yesterday and take out the rest of his clothes, but knowing him, he just figured he’d do it when he got around to it and she’d be there to let him in.

She frowned. If there was one thing Joe was good at, it was taking her for granted.

Her eyes slowly adjusted to the lack of light, although that weird glow helped a little as well. Her purse was right where she’d left it, atop the slanted stack of white envelopes she’d tugged from the mailbox.

She reached in and rummaged, letting out a whispered, “Yes!” when she found it. She carefully plucked it from its pocket and pushed the home button. The lock screen glowed brightly enough to make her squint, and she quickly punched in her code and toggled to the home screen to app to dull the brightness before—

“I wouldn’t do that, if I were you.”

Loki's voice, also no more than a whisper, brushed her ear and she jumped, the phone sailing from her hand to bounce across the counter. It was only a whisper, but there was more than a little menace woven into the mist, and without thinking, she whipped about, her fist clenched, with every intention of knocking him on his ass.

It was only too bad her fist never made contact. He caught her easily, his hand wrapping about her wrist to halt her progress and easily blocked the blow. “Is this how you treat your guests?”

She just stared at him. “My gue—are you insane? You are not a guest. I didn’t invite you here, remember. You invited yourself.” She tried to jerk her hand free. Impossible. His hand was like a steel band about her wrist. “Let go of me.”

“So you might call for help? I don’t think so.”

From the corner of her eye, she saw him raise his free hand. “No. Don’t zap that away as well. I need it.”

He paused. “Need it for what?”

“Email. Facebook. Instagram. Tumb—okay, yeah… I know that’s a lame ass reason, but…” she let her arm go limp in his grasp and sighed softly, “It’s also got my entire address book of contacts. If I lose them, I’ll never be able to get in touch with anyone. Ever. My whole life is in that phone.”

“Is it?” He glanced at the phone lying facedown on the counter. “In that little box?”

“Yeah, actually. In that little box. You’d be amazed at what information that little box holds.” Now, um…” her hand tingled as the his grip kept the blood from flowing to her hand, “could you maybe let go of me? My hand is going kind of numb.”

He released her. In the odd green glow emanating from the living room, his face loomed pale from the shadows. His eyes were pale as well. Blue. Or maybe green. Maybe a combination. His hair was dark—dark enough to blend in with the darkness behind him—and on the long-ish side. 

Who would believe the God of Mischief held her hostage inside her own apartment? She wouldn’t believe it, and she saw all of the news footage that came out of New York a few months earlier. The Battle of New York. When they were invaded by aliens.

And gods, apparently.

“What do you want from me? And what are you going to do to me when you get what you want?” she asked, a dull weariness creeping over her. She moved away from him, to the counter, where she hoisted herself up and reached for the phone, which was no worse for the wear after its crash landing. Thank God.

She cast a glance at him. Thank the gods?

“I told you, I need your help. You help me, and nothing will happen to you at all.”

“And if I don’t help you?”

A slow smile curved his lips. “Are you certain you wish an answer to that?”

The lack of warmth in that smile curdled her blood and brought a sour taste to the back of her mouth. No. She definitely did not want an answer to that. She swallowed hard against the foul taste. “Yeah… no… don’t tell me.” 

She swung her legs slightly, letting the backs of her feet bounce lightly off the cabinet as she weighed her options, such as they were. She could help him, or she could find out what lay behind that cold smile. Somehow, helping him seemed a much wiser, much safer option. And really, how bad could it be?

Probably best not to ask that.

Still, she had to know, so she looked up to meet his eyes. “What do I have to do? Because if it involves anything weird—or weirder than this—” she gestured back and forth between them with one hand—“you can forget it.”

“I need a place to stay for a while. Until I heal and I’m able to go back and reclaim what is rightfully mine.”

“So you want me to let you live here? Are you going to chip in for the rent?”

“Rent?” His head tilted slightly to the left. “What might that be?”

“Right. I forgot. You’re a prince or something and probably have never had to pay for a thing in your life.” She reached up to sweep her bangs away from her forehead. “What else do I have to do?”

“Nothing yet. Although, if you’ve something for my back, that might help.”

“Something for your back?”

He nodded, moving to flick the light switch. “Have you ever been slammed about like a rag doll, into a stone floor, by a Hulk? It wreaks havoc on your body, you know.”

She bit back a smile, her, “According to Tony Stark, the Hulk sank you three inches into that stone,” popping out on its own.

A mistake.

He didn’t smile. In fact, his eyes narrowed, and she pressed her lips together as her heart skipped a painful beat. Okay. Note to self; the Hulk is a bad thing to bring up.

The silence stretched a few moments longer, then, as if she hadn’t said a word, he went on, “I also had a bit of a run in with a spear not too long ago. A very large, very sharp spear. So, as you can see, the last few months of my life left me more than a little banged up, for lack of a better phrase.”

“Sounds like it.” She gestured to the far corner, where several bottles stood on the windowsill above the sink. “There’s some ibuprofen. It might help.”

He picked over the bottles, found the ibuprofen, and proceeded to struggle with trying to open the bottle. “What the devil is this?” he grunted, tugging and pushing at the cap. “A different magic?”

“Child-proof cap.” She slid down from the counter, took the bottle from him, and popped off the lid. “Here. Two should do the trick.”

“Trick?”

“It should help.” She took a glass from the cabinet in the corner and pressed it into the water dispenser on the fridge. “Here. Drink this with them. It’ll make them go down easier.”

Loki eyed the two caplets she’d dropped into his palm. “How do I know I can trust you?”

She shrugged. “I guess you’ll just have to take a chance.” As he continued staring at her, she sighed. “Okay. Here, I’ll take one with you. I’ve got a headache anyway.”

She tossed back a caplet, took the glass of water from him, swallowed a mouthful, and pressed the glass back into his hand. “See?”

“Do you have any ale, instead? Or perhaps some wine?”

“Drink the water. Don’t be a baby.”

He looked from the pills to the glass, to her and then back. Then, he put the caplets in his mouth and drained the glass. “When will it work?”

“You have to have a little patience. It takes about twenty minutes and then gradually, your back should feel better.” She took the glass from him to put in the sink. Then, she turned and leaned back against the counter. “So all you want from me is a place to crash for a few days?”

“That’s it. When I’m healed, I’ll be on my way.”

“And you won’t do anything to me? Or Cinder?”

His brow wrinkled. “Cinder?”

“My cat.”

“I make no war on women or pets.”

“Fine. Then you can stay here. But on one condition.”

Leather creaked as he crossed his arms over his wide chest. “What might that be?”

“You give me back my phone and you don’t kill anyone.”

“That’s two conditions.”

“Fine. You don’t kill anyone.”

“You drive a hard bargain, Midgardian. But very well. I won’t kill anyone.”

“And please, stop calling me Midgardian. You know my name. Use it.”

His eyes glinted with mischief. She didn’t even have to know him to know what it was, and then he smiled. “Very well again. McKenna.”

He said it in a low, almost growly sort of voice, lightly tinged with an elegant accent. Although she knew it shouldn’t affect her one way or the other, it still sent a shiver rippling down along her spine. Oh, that was not good. Not good at all. He was dangerous and she would do well to keep that in mind.

With that in mind, she nodded. “Good. Now, I’m tired and I’m going to bed. Do you want a blanket or a pillow or something?”

“Both would be appreciated.”

“Fine. Wait here.” She left him in the kitchen and retrieved an extra pillow and blanket from the linen closet, and came back to find he’d turned out the kitchen light and made his way to the sofa. This time, he stretched out, fitting perfectly between the arms. 

“Here. Don’t drool on it.” She handed him the pillow.

“I’ll do my best not to,” he replied dryly as he took it and propped it against the arm of the sofa.

She unfolded the blanket and snapped it out to let it float gently over him. “Warm enough?”

“It’s fine.”

“Good. Now, good night. I’ll see you in the morning.” She crossed the living room to the beginning of the hallway, where she paused. “Did you really kill eighty people in two days?”

“Do you really want an answer to that?”

“The news said you also gouged out some scientist’s eye. Why?”

“I needed it.”

She shuddered. “How awful.”

“Your eyes are perfectly safe. They’re too pretty to gouge out.”

She grimaced. “Thank you. I think.”

He let out a low sigh. “I should like to get to sleep now. Good night, Midgardian.”

“Good night. Asgardian.” She resumed her footsteps, smiling when she heard his low chuckle. At least her eyes were safe. The rest of her was probably in imminent danger, but her eyes were safe.

It was a start.

🐒🧸💬👨‍🦰 for Aster and Vernon? 0w0

~Spark💥

ask meme is here :))

🐒 — What’s their favourite animal pokemon?

Aster

Obviously adores Corviknights and their pre-evos, given her family’s tradition of gifting their children a Rookidee to raise when they’re like 5 or 6 years old — she spent her childhood surrounded by the birds, and the one she raised has never left her party. But after going out into the world she discovered she is much more of a cat person than a bird person, to the point that she makes a point of catching one from any feline pokemon species she comes across bar the Kantonian and Alolan Meowth lines. Aster does not like those ones. Perrserker and Galarian Meowth her favourite, though, and not just because she’s got a Perrserker as her ace!! She likes their rowdy attitudes, raising one definitely had an influence on her own personality and how she carries herself :)) she also just loves their overall looks — the wiry fur that makes up their beards (so unique!! how many other bearded cats can you think of??) and sharp toothed grins never fail to make her smile 😊

Vernon

He loves his Corviknight — Roddy has been his partner his entire life and they have an extremely strong bond as a result. But also that’s Roddy in particular. Like Aster, he loves the Corviknight line, but they aren’t necessarily his top favourite species of all time. That title (not that he’ll EVER admit it out loud as he does not like to play favourite) goes to Minccino and Cinccino — not only are they super cute, soft and fluffy (excellent to hug), but they also like to keep things clean like Vern does.

🧸 — Do they have any stuffed animals? If so, are they decorative or do they sleep with them?

Aster

Has a few that have been collected over time, some live on her sofa to curl up with during a movie, others are more there for her pokemon to play with and snuggle up to rather than for herself. Doesn’t sleep with any because she usually has two to three living creatures sharing her bed with her — no room for plushies when her team want to cuddle 😔

Vernon

Has a plushie of each pokemon on his team. They’re small, decorative plushies he has in his living room alongside his photos of said teammates. Shrine for the babies (and one large bird).

💬 — What are some filler/buffer words they use? (Like, um, etc.)

Aster

‘Innit’. Uses it constantly, either tacked onto the end of a sentence (bit cold out, innit?) or simply on its own as a way of agreeing with someone else. Also throws the words ‘like’ and ‘y’know’ around a lot mid sentence.

Vernon

Also uses ‘innit’ a fair amount, but not to the same extent as Aster. Tends to start sentences with ‘right, then,’ and fills them with ‘um’s and ‘hmmm’s when he’s not sure what to say. Tries to consciously avoid using fillers when he can though.

🧑‍🦰 — Have they ever dyed their hair? Ever cut it themself?

Aster

Has pretty much gone through the entire colour spectrum at this point, at first she started started getting her hair dyed so she could be a bit less recognisable as a runaway champion, but once that fear died down and she got more comfortable with herself, Aster continued to mess with her hair because it’s fun!! Gotten very good at using hair dye with minimal need for cleanup due to the number of times she’s messed with her hair in a pokemon centre bathroom during her travels. Cuts her hair herself for maintenance purposes — getting rid of split ends and such, but if she wants a major upheaval (chopping a massive length off and/or getting layers/a perm, for example) she’ll go to a salon. She knows herself and what she is/isn’t capable of, and which things are best left up to a professional haha

Vernon

Never touched a bottle of hair dye, does not trust himself enough with scissors to go at his hair on his own. Vern just goes to the same barber every month or two when he thinks he needs a trim. Gets rid of his split ends and a bit of a tidy up for a relatively low price. Likes being able to sit back while someone else does all the work, even if it’s just for half an hour.

Which Aspects Should You Take Into Account When Choosing Furniture for Your House?

Choosing the appropriate furniture for your house is an essential first step towards designing a cozy and fashionable living space. Choosing wisely might be intimidating with so many alternatives available, including ornamental items like a Sunburst mirror . These are some important factors to take into account while choosing furniture to improve your area.

1. Usability

Think about how each component will be utilized first and foremost. Not only should furniture be well-made, but it should also fulfill its intended function. Choose furnishings for each room based on the activities you want to perform there, whether that means a comfortable sofa for lounging, a robust dining table for gatherings with family, or a multipurpose ottoman for storage.

2. Dimensions and Range

Before buying furniture, measure the area. It's critical to select items that harmoniously match the room's measurements. Small items in a huge area might look disoriented, while oversized furniture can make a small room feel claustrophobic. To achieve a balanced effect, take into account the scale of your furniture in relation to other things in the space.

3. Fashion and Beauty

Your furniture should be a reflection of your own style and blend in with your home's general decor. Select things that complement your style, whether it be a more traditional, homey vibe or a modern, minimalist approach. To improve your décor, look for furniture with intriguing features, colors, and textures.

4. Excellence and Sturdiness

Purchasing furniture of superior quality is essential for long-term happiness. Seek for materials that are low maintenance and long-lasting. High-quality upholstery, metal frames, and solid wood are frequently more dependable than less expensive options. Take into account the furniture's resistance to deterioration, particularly in high-traffic areas.

5. Coziness

Never undervalue comfort. If at all feasible, test furniture items to make sure your family and you will find them comfy. Test the height of tables, recline on seats, and sit on couches. Keep in mind that how comfortable your living areas are affects how much you like them.

6. Adaptability

Select adaptable furniture to accommodate shifting demands. For example, nesting tables are flexible and can be moved about, and sectional sofas may be reconfigured to suit various layouts. Think of multipurpose furniture, such a bed with built-in drawers or a coffee table with storage.

7. Spending Plan

Finally, decide on a budget before you go shopping. Given the vast range of pricing for furniture, understanding your budget can help you make more focused decisions. To make sure you get the most out of your investment, think about where you can save and where you want to spend.

Conclusion

Selecting furniture is an important choice that affects the aesthetic and practicality of your house. Functionality, size, style, quality, comfort, adaptability, and affordability are all factors to take into account when making decisions that will result in a lovely and welcoming living area that you and your family will love for many years to come.

Modular Home Furniture: A Versatile and Stylish Solution for Modern Living

Modular home furniture has become increasingly popular in recent years, offering homeowners a flexible and customizable solution to furnish their living spaces. As homes get smaller and more dynamic, the need for furniture that can adapt to changing lifestyles has grown. Modular furniture provides the perfect answer to this demand, offering functionality, style, and adaptability. This article explores the benefits of modular home furniture, why it’s ideal for modern living, and how it can elevate your home environment.

What is Modular Home Furniture?

Modular home furniture consists of individual pieces or sections that can be assembled, reassembled, and rearranged in various configurations to suit the space and needs of the homeowner. These pieces are often designed to serve multiple functions, such as a sofa that can turn into a bed or shelving units that can double as room dividers. The beauty of modular furniture lies in its flexibility and the ability to evolve with your living situation, whether you're moving, downsizing, or simply want to refresh your decor.

Flexibility and Customization

One of the main advantages of modular home furniture is its flexibility. Unlike traditional furniture, which is often bulky and difficult to move, modular furniture is typically lightweight and easy to rearrange. This makes it an excellent choice for renters, urban dwellers, or anyone who likes to frequently switch up their home layout. You can easily add, remove, or reconfigure pieces to create new looks and functions within your space.

Customization is another key feature of modular furniture. Many manufacturers offer a range of sizes, colors, materials, and finishes to ensure your furniture complements your home's interior. Whether you're looking to create a minimalist aesthetic or a cozy, eclectic environment, modular furniture allows you to design a space that truly reflects your style and preferences.

Maximizing Space Efficiency

Modular furniture is perfect for homes with limited space, such as apartments, studios, or small houses. Every square foot counts in these environments, and modular furniture is designed to maximize space efficiency. For example, modular sofas with hidden storage compartments or beds that can be folded away are ideal for compact spaces.

With modular home furniture, you can also create multi-functional rooms. A modular desk can transform a living room into a home office, while modular shelving can divide a room without the need for permanent walls. This versatility helps you make the most of every area in your home.

Easy Assembly and Maintenance

Another reason modular furniture is a practical choice for modern living is its ease of assembly. Many modular pieces come with simple instructions and require no professional installation. This makes it easy for homeowners to set up and adjust the furniture as needed.

Modular furniture is also known for being low-maintenance. Since the pieces can be separated and moved individually, it's easier to clean around and under them. If a piece gets damaged or worn out, you can often replace just that section instead of the entire set, making it a cost-effective solution in the long run.

Sustainable and Cost-Effective

Sustainability is becoming a priority for many homeowners, and modular furniture can contribute to more eco-friendly living. Because of its versatility and long-lasting nature, modular furniture reduces the need for frequent replacements. Some modular furniture pieces are even made from recycled or sustainable materials, making them an environmentally responsible choice.

In terms of cost, Latest Modular Kitchen Design can be a wise investment. While the initial price might be comparable to traditional furniture, its adaptability and durability ensure that you won't need to buy new furniture as often. You can start with a few pieces and gradually expand your collection as needed, making it a budget-friendly option over time.

Finding the Perfect Carpet Area Carpets Near You

Area carpets can transform a room, adding warmth, style, and comfort to any space. If you're looking for area carpets near me, you’ve come to the right place. In this guide, we’ll provide comprehensive details on how to choose the right carpet, where to find the best deals, and how to ensure that your area carpet fits perfectly into your home décor. From materials and sizes to cleaning and maintenance, we’ve got all the information you need. Read on to discover everything about buying area carpets nearby.

Why Area Carpets Are a Great Addition to Any Home

Area carpets are an essential piece for many homes due to their versatility. They not only help protect your flooring but also add texture, color, and personality to your space. Whether you're redecorating or simply adding a touch of coziness, area carpets serve both aesthetic and functional purposes.

Hands Stool

Colours of materials + finishes will vary when viewing on different devices and may not be an exact representation of the product. Please contact us for more information + if samples are available, we can send these to you to confirm prior to your order.

Warmth: Carpets provide a cozy feeling underfoot, especially during cold months.

Noise Reduction: They help absorb sound, making a room quieter.

Visual Appeal: The right carpet can enhance the overall look of a room by adding color and pattern.

Protection for Floors: They act as a buffer, protecting wood or tiled flooring from wear and tear.

How to Choose the Right Area Carpet

1. Consider the Carpet Material

The material of the carpet is crucial to both the feel and durability of the product. Here are some common materials you’ll encounter:

Wool: Natural, durable, and soft. Wool is an excellent insulator and can resist dirt.

Nylon: Synthetic but highly durable and affordable. It’s ideal for high-traffic areas.

Polyester: A more affordable alternative, offering a variety of colors and softness but less durable than wool and nylon.

Silk: Luxurious and smooth, but delicate. Silk is best suited for low-traffic areas or formal spaces.

Each material comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages, so the choice depends on your needs.

2. Pick the Right Size for Your Space

Size is one of the most important factors when selecting an area carpet. Carpets that are too small or too large can throw off the balance of a room. Here are some general guidelines:

For a living room, make sure the front legs of your furniture are on the rug.

In dining areas, the rug should be large enough to accommodate chairs, even when pulled out.

In bedrooms, consider placing a rug underneath the bed, allowing a generous border around it.

3. Choose a Style that Complements Your Décor

When selecting the design of the carpet, consider the existing theme of your room:

Traditional Rugs: Patterns like medallions and intricate designs suit more classic, formal spaces.

Modern Rugs: Think bold patterns, clean lines, and minimalistic designs, which are ideal for contemporary homes.

Bohemian Rugs: These are often vibrant and eclectic, bringing warmth and personality to any room.

4. Focus on Durability and Traffic Levels

High-traffic areas like hallways or living rooms require durable carpets that can withstand frequent use. On the other hand, low-traffic areas, such as bedrooms, may benefit from softer, plush carpets that prioritize comfort over durability.

Where to Buy Area Carpets Near You

Finding the perfect carpet locally ensures you can see and feel the material before purchasing, guaranteeing that it meets your expectations. Here are some excellent ways to locate area carpets near me:

1. Visit Local Carpet Retailers

Shopping for area carpets at local carpet retailers offers several unique advantages that can enhance your buying experience. By visiting a local store, you get the opportunity to physically see and feel the carpets before making a purchase. This is essential because colors, textures, and materials can appear different in person compared to online images. Furthermore, local retailers often carry a curated selection of area carpets, allowing you to find styles that are more aligned with your specific taste and home décor.

2. Big-Box Retailers

Big-box retailers such as Home Depot, Lowe's, and Walmart provide an extensive range of area carpets at competitive prices, making them a convenient choice for many shoppers. These retailers usually carry a wide selection of ready-made rugs in different sizes, materials, and styles, which can cater to various budgets and preferences. One of the key advantages of shopping at big-box stores is the price point—they can offer lower prices because they buy products in bulk, often making them more affordable than specialty stores.

3. Specialty Carpet Stores

Specialty carpet stores are often the best choice if you’re looking carpets for a more curated, unique selection of high-quality area carpets. These stores typically focus on providing products that are not found at larger retail chains, including hand-woven, imported, or luxury carpets. If you're after something truly distinctive or crafted from premium materials such as silk or wool, specialty stores are likely your best bet.

4. Online Stores Offering Local Delivery

Shopping for area carpets online has never been easier, thanks to a vast number of e-commerce platforms such as Wayfair, Overstock, and Amazon. One of the greatest advantages of buying rugs online is the convenience—you can shop from the comfort of your own home, browse thousands of options, and have the rug delivered directly to your door. Many online stores provide detailed product descriptions, high-resolution images, and customer reviews, allowing you to make an informed decision before purchasing.

Caring for Your Area Carpet

Once you've selected your perfect carpet, maintaining it is key to ensuring it lasts for years. Here are some essential care tips:

1. Regular Vacuuming

Proper care of your area carpet ensures its longevity and keeps it looking fresh. Regular vacuuming is essential to prevent dirt and dust from embedding in the fibers, particularly in high-traffic areas, where vacuuming twice a week may be necessary. This helps maintain the carpet’s appearance and prolongs its life.

2. Spot Cleaning

For unexpected spills, immediate spot cleaning is crucial to avoid stains. Use a clean cloth to blot the spill rather than rubbing it, which can spread the stain. For stubborn marks, mild detergent or professional cleaning might be required.

3. Rotate the Carpet

To ensure even wear, it's important to rotate your carpet every six months, especially if placed in high-traffic areas. This helps prevent one area from becoming more worn than others.

4. Professional Cleaning

Lastly, consider scheduling a professional cleaning at least once a year. This deep cleaning removes dirt and allergens that regular vacuuming cannot reach, helping to preserve the carpet's beauty and hygiene.

5 FAQs About Area Carpets

1. What is the best material for area carpets?

The best material depends on your needs. Wool is highly durable and natural, making it an excellent choice for long-lasting, high-traffic carpets. For a budget-friendly option, nylon is a durable synthetic alternative.

2. Can I put a rug on carpet?

Yes, adding a rug on top of wall-to-wall carpeting can add texture and color. Just ensure the rug has a good backing to prevent slipping.

Top 5 Affordable Interior Design Ideas for Bangalore Homes

Looking to give your Bangalore home a stylish makeover without emptying your wallet? At WeDezine, we believe that great design doesn't have to come at a high cost. Our expert team has curated the top 5 affordable interior design ideas that will transform your space and add a personal touch to your home without breaking the bank. Dive into these practical, budget-friendly tips tailored specifically for Bangalore homes!

1. Go Green with Indoor Plants

Bangalore's pleasant climate makes it the perfect place to bring nature indoors! Indoor plants are not just a beautiful addition but also a cost-effective way to refresh your living spaces. Think low-maintenance plants like Snake Plants, Money Plants, or Peace Lilies that add a calming vibe while also purifying the air. Even in limited space, vertical gardens or hanging planters can create a lush, green sanctuary. Start small with a few plants and watch your home come alive!

Estimated Cost: Starting at just ₹200! A small investment for a big transformation.

2. Get Creative with DIY Decor and Upcycling

Unleash your creativity with DIY decor projects and upcycling! Bangalore has a rich history of craftsmanship, and you can easily incorporate this into your decor. Upcycle old furniture with a fresh coat of paint or repurpose glass bottles as unique flower vases. Use colorful fabrics or jute to create wall art or cushion covers. Not only does this approach save money, but it also adds a personal, unique touch to your home decor.

Estimated Cost: As low as ₹500 for basic supplies! Redecorate without the hefty price tag.

3. Transform with Affordable Lighting

Lighting can make or break a room’s ambiance. Instead of opting for expensive fixtures, choose affordable options like fairy lights, string lights, or LED lamps available in Bangalore's bustling markets. Experiment with different types of lighting to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. A few strategic lighting changes can instantly elevate your interiors, giving them a fresh, cozy feel.

Estimated Cost: Starting at just ₹300! Light up your home, not your expenses.

4. Refresh with Colorful Soft Furnishings

Don’t underestimate the power of soft furnishings to transform a space! Inject new life into your home with vibrant cushion covers, rugs, and curtains. Choose colors and patterns that reflect Bangalore's vibrant culture – from earthy tones to geometric designs. Head to local markets like KR Market or Shivajinagar for some great bargains. A simple change in cushions or curtains can make your home feel brand new!

Estimated Cost: Between ₹1,000 - ₹4,000 for a whole new look!

5. Optimize Space with Multi-Functional Furniture

In Bangalore, space is precious! Make the most of every inch with multi-functional furniture like sofa-cum-beds, storage ottomans, or foldable tables. These pieces are perfect for small apartments or homes and help keep your space organized and clutter-free. Find affordable options at local furniture shops or big retailers like IKEA and Urban Ladder.

Estimated Cost: From ₹3,000 onwards. Invest in pieces that do double duty!
