What We Covered in March 2025

Looking back at March, we shared a mixed bag of practical ideas for your home and health. From how to hang curtains for a bigger‑feel room to spotting quality mirrors, each post gave you straightforward steps you can try today.

Style‑Savvy Window Treatments

We kicked off the month with two curtain guides. First, we broke down the ceiling‑height vs. window‑height debate, showing you when each option makes a room feel taller or cozier. Next, we helped you decide if your curtains should be lighter or darker than your walls, pointing out how size, natural light, and mood play a part. The bottom line? Test a few inches of overlap and use a simple paint‑chip match to see what feels right.

Kitchen Essentials & Safety

Our kitchen series answered three common questions. The “Top 10 Must‑Have Kitchen Tools” list highlighted versatile items like a good chef’s knife, a sturdy cutting board, and a multi‑function mandolin. We then clarified what counts as kitchenware, separating everyday utensils from specialized cookware. Finally, we tackled the health buzz around non‑stick pans, explaining the latest ceramic coatings and how to avoid overheating. If you’re upgrading your kitchen, start with those ten tools and swap old, scratched non‑stick surfaces for newer, safer options.

For the DIY‑oriented, we also explored floating shelves and their 2024 relevance. The article confirmed they’re still on‑trend, especially when you stagger them or mix wood with metal brackets. Simple styling tricks—like adding a plant or a framed photo—keep the look fresh without a big budget.

When it comes to mirrors, our “Expensive Mirror Secrets” guide gave you a quick checklist: check the glass thickness, look for a silver‑backed backing, and inspect the frame material. If the mirror feels heavy and the frame has solid wood or metal, you’re likely looking at a quality piece.

Sofas got their moment, too. We ranked the best sofa brands based on durability, comfort, and customer service. If you’re hunting for a new couch, look for a solid hardwood frame, high‑density foam cushions, and a removable cover for easy cleaning. Timing matters—shopping during the off‑season often nets better deals.

Health‑focused readers weren’t left out. We examined whether non‑stick pans still pose risks and why a donut cushion can actually ease sciatica pain by reducing pressure on the tailbone. Both pieces offered clear, actionable advice—use low‑heat settings on non‑stick cookware and choose a cushion with a firm, supportive edge for pain relief.

Finally, we answered niche queries: “Do I need curtains if I have blinds?” and “Will Medicare cover a Tempurpedic adjustable bed?” The curtain‑vs‑blind post highlighted how layering adds insulation and aesthetic depth, while the Medicare guide outlined the criteria for durable medical equipment coverage and suggested talking to a provider about medical necessity.

All in all, March delivered a handy mix of décor inspiration, kitchen upgrades, and health tips. Bookmark the posts that speak to your current projects and come back whenever you need a quick reminder. Happy home improving!
