If home is where the heart is, why shouldn’t it follow the same stars that we do? Our relationships with our homes are sacred, and like most, could use a bit of counseling here and there. Tap on your sun sign and start making your house more of a home today!
Aries
Achieving style at home requires thoughtful action. Arched doorways serve to soften a space and the eyes are carried upward naturally, so if you have room for art, perhaps a couple of ornately decorated plates, place them to the side and near the top of the door.
Taurus
Do not sell your talents short or feel that you need to work more than part time outside your home. You are a solid contributor when it comes to the family budget: remember, time is money.
Gemini
You are the queen (mom) with your court (family) gathered 'round the dining table and the bounteous feast. Fondue lets choosy diners eat their fill of favorites. Chocolate fondue with kiwi, bananas, mango and grapes is a crowning event.
Cancer
Go for a more intellectual style when choosing a new set of glasses. Pick out frames you like first, then eliminate by cost if you need to. A difference of $50 for a stylish frame is worth the extra cost -- after all, you're a total style maven.
Leo
Great hostess that you are, resting easy is one of the pleasures you offer to guests. When buying rectangular folding tables, keep in mind that recessed legs will let people sit comfortably at either end as well as the sides.
Virgo
Treat your body to a bit of exercise and healthy food washed down with water today. Treat your tools right and they will be serviceable much longer. Keep your broom like new by standing it on end. Resting it on the bristles makes for a curly useless tool.
Libra
Be inventive. Give Roman shades a designer look by adding half-inch pleats every six inches or so. And look around you home -- what else can you do to add your special touch?
Scorpio
The two sides of your personality, Ms. Insight and Ms. Intention are aligned as you tackle the final project of your new home, hanging pictures on the wall. Just make sure you carry a common theme throughout.
Sagittarius
Cutting corners is not in your best interest. Slow down. Be alert. Cook your honey custards in a low oven for optimal results. Garnish with a slice of mandarin orange and a sprig of mint.
Capricorn
Fixing a problem so it has less chance of happening again only requires a bit of your ingenuity. The new puppy could not eat your children's favorite stuffed animals if they were stored out of the open toy box. Hold an entire barnyard of stuffed animals by adding painted cardboard shelves to old wire refrigerator baskets.
Aquarius
Your green thumb makes your apartment balcony garden a haven for hummingbirds, butterflies and honey bees. Hanging gardens create an overhead oasis in your city domicile.
Pisces
Banish the drab hues of winter with a few cans of paint and your imaginations. Use color to highlight and contrast the architecture of your home. Horizontal bands of molding might define fields of color.
