There’s something about looking at string lights
that is very soothing and relaxing. Maybe it’s because of the low,
twinkly light, maybe it’s because they give off an aura of coziness, or
maybe it’s because they are often accompanied by lots of blankets and
cute pillows and other aesthetically pleasing decorations – but whatever
it is, string lights have a magical vibe to them that
makes them the perfect piece of room decor. While they were obviously
made to be draped over your walls, there are other, more creative things to do with string lights that will leave your bedroom looking very dreamy.
If you haven’t started to take advantage of string lights just yet, what are you waiting for?! They make any bedroom look more cozy and comfy.
They’re also usually pretty inexpensive and easy to set up. And since
they don’t require much, they’re great for DIY projects or college dorm
rooms that need some personality. You can buy them anywhere – Urban Outfitters
has a ton of options, but I’ve even seen them for sale in dollar stores
– and it’s not hard to make them look good. So, this winter, make your
bedroom the best place to be by trying out some of these tips on decorating with string lights. You’ll never want to leave!
1. Wrap your string lights around your vanity or desk mirror to give yourself a glow every time you look at it.
2. Use clips to hang photos or Polaroid pictures in between lights.
3. Hang sheer sheets into a canopy like situation, then hang a
bunch of string lights around the sheets. Let the string lights also
hang down against the wall to give this a closed in feel.
4. Hang your string lights from the ceiling, letting them droop lower in the middles.
5. Drape your lights along the walls without being too “perfect.” Add Chinese lanterns for an even more pleasing look.
6. Drape your string lights around a tall mirror to make it light up.
7. Do a little DIY with ping pong balls – they’ll make your
string lights look bigger and more white. Or, you can paint the balls
beforehand for colored lights.
8. Wrap string lights around your curtain rod, letting them
hang down against the curtains for a magical look. These look best with
sheer curtains.
9. Put string lights into colorful glass bottles. You can use
white, yellow, or colored lights. These make really fun and easy DIY
decor.
10. Drape your string lights from one end of your headboard
to the other for a little extra soft lighting while you’re cuddling in
bed.
11. Put tiny twinkly string lights inside of lanterns for some cool, rustic decor.
12. Use a hula hoop for some DY action – wrap string lights around the hoop, then hang to make a makeshift chandelier.
13. Hang string lights from your ceiling over your bed, letting them drape down low so they’re almost like little stars.
14. Make a canopy nook and hang string lights around the opening to make it extra magical.
15. Create a light up headboard on your own with some small string lights and a little crafting action.
16. Put small string lights into a mason jar to create a really pretty “light” for your room.
17. Put string lights underneath book shelves (or any shelves) to make them look really cool.
18. Or instead of under, put them on top of the shelves.
19. Instead of the boho draping, carefully line up your string lights around your room so they make a sort of border.
20. You can have both a tapestry and string lights! Just hang
the lights over the tapestry – it actually makes the art look cooler.
21. No closet doors? Put string lights around the opening to
make the area look better – and, tbh, you can do this even if you have
doors.
22. Put string lights all over your bookshelves or shelves.

Much has been said about the latest in the healthcare sector. Politicians' continue to bicker and have no solid plan to replace the current plan. Certain Analysts believe if this Trump Administration plan passes the Senate their proposal will leave over 23 million people without coverage by the year 2026. The Affordable Care Act law is and was simply put in place to help the American people who were once unable to get any type of coverage, finally get the care he or she may need. Secondly, it has also helped more than enough individuals with pre-existing conditions get coverage as well. And thirdly there is the concern of affordability; this is for people who do not have enough money to pay for insurance on their own, the current law provides financial assistance for those eligible to receive money from the government.
The problem with today's guidelines are the plans are based on: age, geographic location, the ability to pay, the rising cost of medical technology and taxes. Notice there is nothing mentioned about your overall health conditions. Until the underwriting process is brought back into the equation, then insurers' will never be able to accurately measure their risk and set premium prices at affordable rates. The message to insurers' is the fact that no one should be denied health insurance due to their finances or health related conditions to help protect against their financial losses when and if they occurred.
During this era a majority of insurance companies especially those that specialize in the health sector jumped on the band wagon with lower premiums knowing financial assistance would be there to help pay for coverage. Plans were and are designed to basically take the American peoples' money first before paying any claims. Once the claims began to come from more than enough people, then insurers' realized their premiums were set too low and began experiencing financial losses. There is no coincidence today why as consumers we hear about large health carriers pulling out of the marketplace and are no longer willing to participate this coming 2018 season under the ACA format.
The solution for consumers, we have to educate ourselves and grasp a good understanding and not listen to all the rhetoric in the media. We need a suite of insurance products to benefit us in the event there are some types of loss. Whether its a loss of life, the inability to work for certain period of time, or failing health our money needs to be protected at reasonable rates. Do this now while you are still healthy with the right kind of life and health insurance plans; underwriting is the key.
There are more than enough life and health insurance companies who offer benefits to protect your money. They never moved into this whole affordable care dilemma. Insurance today is still being sold on the premise of an individual's risk factors. These type of plans whether they are: accident, cancer, critical illness, dread disease, hospitalization, preventive care and wellness, also known as MEC (minimum essential coverage) or life insurance policies are and will always be available.
The Affordable Care Act is a good law that needs to be revised and not replaced. In today's environment of government uncertainty, why listen to such chaos? "People perish because of a lack of knowledge." Hosea 4:6a. Now that you have been given this knowledge, perish not; be encouraged and do the right thing for your family and your finances.
