I need to find authentic fixtures for a Victorian house…

Sooqini have asked The Victorian Emporium to write a guest blog on transforming your Victorian period property to its original glory.

More and more people who are lucky enough to own a Victorian period home are looking for ways to restore their property in keeping with the Victorian era. Victorian times were all about elegance and grandeur, and in modern day Britain it can be very difficult to know where to start looking for authentic Victorian fixtures and fittings.

But as always, Sooqini can help you out!

We have a fantastic selection of local and reliable happy helpers who are ready to take on the most unusual of tasks. If you need some research on furniture and fittings for your Victorian home, Sooqini can take care of it. Our helpers could provide you with a list of Victorian fixtures such as handles, light switches, dado rails, door knobs and outdoor railings, and will also tell you where you need to go to find them. If you need something collected from a specialist Victorian period products store and delivered straight to your door, then Sooqini will make it happen. All you need is an idea of what you want: Sooqini will do the rest. Our helpers can even take care of the practical work involved in transforming your Victorian home.

Simply post your job on the website and one of our helpers will get in touch to say that they are interested in helping out. No job is too big or too small, and you can even read reviews on past jobs that your helper has undertaken, to make sure that they can do exactly what you need.

With the winter months finally drawing to an end, the party season is fast approaching! If you are organising a wedding, birthday party, anniversary or summer celebration then you'll be starting to realise just how much work is involved. Guest lists, deciding on venues and catering, themes and decorations, entertainment - the list is endless, and a party that should be all about fun and enjoyment could fast become stressful and daunting.

But don't worry - Sooqini are here to help!

We understand the pressures of modern day living, and we can take the stress away from any task that needs doing. If you need tableware or decorations ordered or collected for your party, then Sooqini can take care of it. One of our local helpers could even deliver everything you need straight to your door. If you'd like to find a local band for your party's evening entertainment, Sooqini will know who to call. Or if you are hiring a marquee and want to liven up the interior decor with some contemporary and elegant hired furniture, you'll be able to find someone who can make this happen.

All you need to do is post the task that needs doing on our website, and one of the local helpers who are keen to take on the job will be in touch. You can even read up to date reviews on the local helpers, to make sure that they come with the best possible track record.

Best of all, you can still stay in control of your party plans by only posting the tasks that you really need help with - so if you are keen to focus on the catering, for example, then Sooqini can help with everything else, meaning that your time is freed up to enjoy every stage of the preparations for your perfect party.

Whoa! I can get my iPhone in a different colour!

iPhones are still a two-tone affair - black or white - although there is huge demand for more choice. In a recent poll conducted by BGR, 63% of respondents claimed they would buy a new iPhone in a new colour. Fortunately, there is finally a company, which will customise your iPhone to the colour you really want: iPhoneColour.

  Many iPhone fans, including celebrities have already jumped on the opportunity to be different and get their iPhone designed how they truly like it. According to co-Founder Sam Kitondo, "celebs such as Lady Leshurr, Karis (from Stooshe), Fugative, Aattilia Fabbrini already have ordered red, pink and yellow colours. Lauran Alexandra even has a leopard skin as she wanted a bit more sex appeal. There are so many orders rushing in - it's great!"

  Instead of just buying another external case, iPhoneColour actually replaces the handset casing with the same high-grade manufacturer OEM parts, but with new colours. This way the transition is truly natural. And the process is simple: a iPhoneColour technician will replace the case in front of you in a few minutes. A 14-day warranty is offered to ensure complete satisfaction for its customers.

  Currently, red, blue, green, yellow and pink colours are available for the iPhone 4, 4S and 5 models and a more custom-design can also be requested. You can also ask for the same black or white if you just want to hide your scratches or damages.

  To order your own colour today, visit their partner, mobile marketplace, Sooqini.com which exclusively sells each case for £58.  For more information on iPhoneColour and to follow them visit their pages: https://www.facebook.com/iPhoneColour and https://twitter.com/iPhoneColour

Sooqini - I need help to sell my house fast!

Sooqini is really pleased to have Property Angel Solutions guest blogging for them this week.

Selling a house can take a long time. Particularly in the current market, homes are taking longer to sell, and prices are not rising as quickly as in the past. However, we all know that the better you present your house, the easier it will be to sell. Working with Sooqini, you can get some hands-on help and your home in tip top condition so anyone coming round for a viewing will fall in love and put in an offer straight away.

Use Sooqini to find a cleaner

When potential buyers view a home they want it to look clean and tidy and depersonalised. Hair clogging up the drains and washing up in the sink, will not inspire people to sign on the dotted line. If you are looking to sell your house quickly you need to be ready to accept viewers at any time, without having to first rush home to pick your clothes up off the bedroom floor. Having a cleaner can help you keep the place super clean and really appealing. It really will be a worthwhile investment. And you might like it so much that you decide to keep your cleaner in your new home…

Find a declutterer!

Sooqini can help you find a declutterer. If you are looking to sell your home, then decluttering will be a great start. Getting rid of clutter will make it easier for potential home buyers to imagine themselves moving in. It also makes rooms seem bigger.

Move anything you can into the loft, or into storage. But if you really have too much stuff then a declutterer can help. Even the most useless items can be difficult to throw out, and a declutterer can remove the emotional attachment from all that junk so that you can see the wood for the trees. You might even find the process quite therapeutic.

Redecorate

Looking for extra hands to paint and decorate your home? Sooqini can help!

Finding the time (and energy) to redecorate can be really hard, particularly if you are planning on moving and won’t get the benefit. You could have a painting party, but can you really see your friends giving up an entire weekend covered in paint, when they probably have lots of better things to do? Advertise on Sooqini for people to come round and help you decorate and you’ve got yourself a great value team of expert decorators. Set them to work for the weekend and your house will soon be gleaming. In fact it might look so nice that you won’t want to move…

Alternatively, Property Angel Solutions will buy your house fast in its current state. Contact Property Angel Solutions for advice on how to sell your property.
