Probably each of us knows what the endless fight with the dust is. We care about the order in our flat, we try to make them look nice so as the time spent there was a pleasure, but anyway we are not able to secure the rooms against the dust. And in fact, it is everywhere: on furniture, cristal vases, chandelier, carpets…it is not always visible with a naked eye.
However, it must be said that people who are allergic to dust suffer the most in spring. Then, they must deal with hay fever, persistent cough, watery eyes.
In order to limit an influence the dust exerts in our flat we must get rid of the excess of items lying on furniture which is its favourite place. As far as tidying up is concerned, we must remember to do it regularly! It is not necessary to buy extremely expensive detergents. In fact, it is enough to get humid microfiber cloth which can be used to wipe the furniture, curtains or shutters. Obviously, additional detergents against saprophyte also will do.
We should not forget about curtains, net curtains and bed covers which require regular washing. Very similar situation concerns carpets or floor finish - it is good to use detergents specially intended to be used to clean them.
Another important matter is that we should start the dusting from the highest surface. Additionally, vacuum cleaning should be done by the open window as to avoid dust pulverizing. Unfortunately, yet there is no golden mean which would let us get rid of the dust from out flat forever. Then, we must be patient and reconcile ourselves to the fact that dust appears regularly and we must fight with it with the same frequency.

The spaces with one given keynote seams to be more peacefully and elegant, then those with all possible kinds of modern and classical designs around. Of course some styles can be easily joined like traditional and modern. However, such connections needs a lot of imagination and sometimes advise of the professional decorator to give you demand result.
