When we were kids, we thought the insulation in our walls was cotton candy.

Thankfully our parents told us not to take a bite!

Many of us have never given it a second thought since. But if you are a homeowner, it could be worth your while…

So let's pack our brains tight with some insulation information.

Obviously, insulation is what keeps the heat trapped inside our homes.

We measure the effectiveness of insulation with something called “R-value”. The higher the value, the more resistant it is to heat – and the more insulated your house will be.

An improperly insulated home can cost you greatly in energy bills…

So make sure that when you are insulating your home, you get the good stuff – and dont forget to pack it tight!

From clay tiles, to thatch, to shingles – the evolution of the roof is a fascinating subject.

Owing to our choice for materials, homeowners today don’t suffer as many leaky roofs as our medieval counterparts, but that doesn’t mean they don’t happen at all…

How does a stain like that even get on the ceiling?

No, no, it wasn't a wild party with your eccentric neighbors – it was a water stain!

Regardless, it's not very pleasing to the eye.

But don't reach for that bucket of paint – there is still hope for a quick fix!

Mix up some water and bleach, 1 part bleach for every 10 parts water, and spray the mixture on the stain.

Wait 2 days, and see what happens…

Happy spraying! :)

Bet you’d never learn about the history of carpets – get ready for this:

The oldest surviving carpet was excavated in 1949 from a Pazyryk burial mound in the Altai Mountains in Siberia. It dates back all the way to the 4th or 5th century BC!

There are many different types of traditional carpets, with countries like Afghanistan, China, India, Pakistan, Turkey, Spain, England, and more all having their own unique styles.

And while most of us don't have extravagant carpets in our homes, we can all still appreciate the feeling of a nice carpet on our feet [feet emoji]
