What do you think of this bedroom?

Ciara M

I am thinking of getting this bedroom for the house that is being built.
I am looking to know if it is right fir a 15 year old girl who wants a chic but luxury bedroom?
Or if you have any other websites .

The website is : www.hammonds-uk.com/furniture
it is the first bedroom when you enter the site

Answer
If it's the verve style bedroom, then I think it is perfect. I'm not sure if that's the one you wanted us to look at since the link isn't to an exact item. I think that set is chic and luxurious and perfect for her age. I also think that it is a set that will work for her as she ages. I'm 25 and I would like that set now so I think it's a really good choice. I'm from the US so i'm not certain of uk furniture sites but google is the best. Also look up reviews once you find a place to make sure they have good customer service standards.

Paint set question...?

Laugh

I got a paint set for Christmas. It was this set http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/closeout-the-bedroom-arles-studio-art-set Well it came with mostly acrylic paints, and only 2 watercolor paints in yellow and green. why did it come with only 2 water color paints?? Also can anyone explain why the color wheel is not in English?? I mean everything else is in English except the color wheel!! Thanks!!

Answer
I am afraid you may have a simple paint-by-number set, if it is the one pictured. Painting sets like this usually contain cheap paints, even cheaper brushes, and poor quality canvases or paper. The fact that it came up on a J.C.Penney website indicates it is not high-quality artist's materials. Foreign language directions or labels are another indication. I am not sure why you would have gotten watercolors in with your set, because the description says it is acrylics.

I personally do not like to see these sets sold as "real" artist's materials, because they rarely contain materials that will produce quality work. I would play around with it and then if you find you enjoy painting, purchase some better quality materials and enjoy! You can certainly use the box and easel to hold any art supplies you like.

Remember to send a thank you for the gift. Someone was hoping to give you an artistic boost. Paint the picture, frame it and give it to them, and tell them you are considering buying your own paints and brushes. Maybe next time you'll get a gift certificate for Artarama, Daniel Smith, Cheap Joe's, Dakota Art, or Dick Blick!

What is meant by production and production concept?

bedroom set reviews image

Rachel

I have to write a review/critique of a play. It says I need to identify the production and the production concept. What is meant by this? Can you use an example if necessary.

10 points to best answer!

Answer
Production - The show you are critiquing. The "play" is only the script, while the "production" is all attributes of the show: The acting, the set, the lights, where actors move, how they say the words, costumes, etc. For example, if you saw your local theatre misinterpret Hamlet you could sat that you saw a really bad production of a really good play. They play, Hamlet, is good, but the acting, sets, etc. were awful. When you are critiquing a production you are looking at all of the aspects aside from the script in how they relate to the script.

Production Concept - Largely determined by the director and then complimented by the designers and influenced by the actors, the "production concept" is how the script is interpreted. For example, if you are doing Hamlet and decide to set it in outer space. The decision to set it in outer space is part of the production concept. When you are critiquing the production concept, you are evaluating the decisions made by the artists that are not specifically given in the script. A script may say that the play takes place in a bedroom. However, someone has to decide what color the walls are and why. That's all production concept (and since a designer makes that particular decision it is also part of his/her "design concept".)

What's a good hotel to stay at while in Paris for a budget of 100-150 euros a night?

Hi

Am planning to visit Paris in October for 6 days with a friend. What good hotels in the area can be found for 100-150 euros? Is this a realistic price range for decent accomodation (meaning 1 bedroom with private bathroom and housekeeping service, a view of the city perhaps, all with slightly premium touches)

Answer
â¬100 to â¬150 would be a good budget for a budget hotel, but you are asking a bit too much, unless you mean â¬100 each.

Go to one of the many hotel and hostel search sites, (they all do cheap hotels too) and check what is available, and also check the reviews. Not just the star rating of the reviews but the actual written texts, as you can than judge whether you will find the hotel acceptable.

Paris is huge, has many hotels but it also has many visitors so each hotel can set its own prices as customers will come.
