article: When you have grey walls, overhead lighting can cast harsh shadows. To avoid this, add lots of table and floor lighting to create a well-lit and warm room. Put a floor lamp next to each end of a couch, or install wall sconces as an alternative to using ceiling lights. Grey can sometimes cause a room to look and feel cold, and using lots of wood can help offset this. Show off a wood floor, set up wooden tables or chairs, or hang pictures made of natural wooden frames. If your walls are a lighter grey, you can work with darker wood. For darker grey walls, opt for wooden furniture that's a bit lighter. Make sure the furniture isn't paintedyou want to show off the natural wood color. You can create contrast by choosing wood that is textured or embellished. Patterns are a great way to make a monochromatic or neutral-colored room look more interesting. Choose rugs, pillows, chairs, and other decorations in different styles of patterns and fabrics. Select a couch with grey and white stripes on it, or put pillows with floral patterns on solid-colored chairs. Pick out a patterned comforter to go with grey walls. Your rug is a great way to either add color to a grey room or keep the room in neutral tones. A striped rug made of bold colors will add color to a light grey room, while a white or cream rug will help lighten a darker grey room, A rug of the same grey that's on the walls will create a neutral backdrop for you to emphasize your furniture and accessories. Choose furniture such as a leather couch or woven twine coffee table to give the grey room a natural feel. You can also find accessories and decorations made of wool, wood, linen, or knits. Pick out pillows made of a knit fabric, or use a wool blanket to drape over a sofa. Hang curtains made of linen for a light, natural look. Use macrame or tapestries to soften the hardness of the grey and add visual interest.

article: You can use any type of wooden dowels, rolling pins, or spoon handles to drape the spun sugar. Since it's a matter of personal preference, you can try using one large rolling pin or several wooden handles. Cover your counter space and floor with foil. This will make clean up easier since the sugar may fall and harden. If you'd like to use several wooden handles or dowels, consider taping them to your counter space so they don't fall while you're spinning the sugar. Keep them several inches apart so you can pull the sugar between them. Dip the tines of one or two forks into your bowl of sugar syrup. Raise them up so the biggest drips of syrup fall back into the pan. Working quickly, point the fork tines down over the wooden dowels, handles, or rolling pin and wave your wrist back and forth. Moving your wrist quickly while the sugar falls will create thin delicate strands of sugar that you can form and work with. The strands of sugar will cool very quickly and you should be able to gently loosen them from the wood. Gather the strands of sugar together in your hands. Loosely cup your hands together so that the sugar strands form a small nest. Continue pulling and forming the strands to create as many nests as you need. Make sure your hands are cool when working with the spun sugar or else the thin strands may begin to melt. Since the nests are made of delicate sugar strands, they'll begin to absorb moisture from the air. You should serve the desserts with sugar nests immediately (or at least within an hour). If you must store them for a little while before serving, place the nests in an airtight container with parchment and silica packets (to absorb the moisture). This can help store them for up to one day.

Depending on whether or not you belong to a specific congregation, you may need to find a church in which to arrange the ceremony. You may also want to host the baptism in a different, grander church than your usual congregation and can visit different locations to help you narrow down your choices. Visit possible locations or congregations where you might want to hold the baptism. Consider factors such as how the congregation's style and beliefs fit in with yours, as well as if the size can accommodate the number of people you want to attend. Find a church at least a few months in advance so you can get to know the congregation and it can get to know you. Once you've located at least one possible church in which to hold the baptism, schedule a meeting with the priest or minister. She can give you a better idea of any requirements the church may have for baptism or other traditions the congregation celebrates for baptisms. Make a list of any expectations and wishes you have for the baptism. Discuss these with the clergy to see if they are possible at the church. Ask any questions you may have that arise from the conversation. You may want to ask about any expectation the church has of you or the person being baptized, such as attendance in or helping with services. Ask if there are any classes, examinations, or training you require before you can be baptized. For example, the Catholic Church requires education in the Catholic faith before being baptized as an adult. After successfully deciding on your baptism venue, schedule the baptism with the church and clergy member who you would like to perform the ceremony. Consider special dates such as Easter or Christmas for the baptism, which may make the event more special or could make it easier for out of town guests to attend. Schedule the date at least four weeks in advance. Suggest several different dates to help ensure you get the church and clergy member you want for the baptism. Coordinate dates with loved ones if you absolutely want them to attend, especially godparents or sponsors. Some churches require that you choose godparents or sponsors for a baptism, or you may just want to have them to help guide the person being baptized. Choose a godfather and godmother or sponsor from among your family, friends, or other loved ones. In most cases, godparents provide spiritual support and nurturing to a child, while a sponsor can guide a child or an adult being baptized. However, in the Catholic Church, adults can also have one or two godparents. Many churches will require that a godparent or sponsor be baptized and active members of a church. Consider factors such as your relationships to the godparents or sponsors and their potential commitment to guiding the person in the faith or even being there if something should happen to the parents. Make several possible godparent or sponsor choices in case your first choice declines. Ask the prospective godparents or sponsors if they are willing to act in this capacity. Respect the person's decision if she chooses to not be a godparent or sponsor. You'll likely want people to attend the ceremony and a celebration afterward. Make a list of definitive and possible guests who you would like to share in the baptism. Discuss the list with your spouse, the godparents, or anyone else taking part in the ceremony. Decide how many people you want to attend, including if it is adult-only or something for children as well. For example, if you decide to include children, you may want child supervisors or activities to keep them busy. Make sure the number of guests you want to invite can fit into the church and any party venue. Depending on the formality of the baptism, you may want to send out invitations or simply inform guests of the event. Make sure to send out the invitations or information at least three to four weeks in advance of the baptism to ensure that people can put it on or rearrange their schedules. Include RSVP cards so you can get a head count on the ceremony and for any celebration you are hosting, especially if you are serving food. Inform guests of any gift policy you may have. For example, you can write "no gifts, please" on the invitation if you just want people to enjoy the ceremony and celebration. Let your guests know if children may attend and if you've included supervisors or activities for young guests. Baptisms can be a special time to honor family and faith traditions. Incorporate any elements you may want into the ceremony to help make it more personalized and special. You may want to choose a special christening gown or say a specific prayer. Discuss incorporating the traditions with your clergy member, who can help you plan where best to use them. Depending on the size and formality of the baptism, you may want to hire a photographer, a caterer, or even transportation. These elements may help the day run more smoothly and be more enjoyable for you. Confirm with the church that photos are allowed within it. Meet with a photographer if you want professional photos. You can also ask a friend or family member to take pictures of the day. A few days before the baptism, call the church and any other venues to confirm details and any numbers. This can ensure that everything is ready and in place on baptism day. Have contingency plans if anything should fall through such as the church or clergy member.
