Many people shy away from silver cutlery thinking it requires way too much effort to polish and clean. That is a common misconception, as proper silverware does not to be cleaned daily, but just like any household item silver knifes, forks and spoons do collect dirt and grime over time, plus silver reacts with oxygen, meaning the cutlery will discolour eventually. But sprucing up your silver cutlery again takes no time at all, and you guaranteed to have all you need for that already at home. To remove dirt and give the silverware back its shine, simply apply some toothpaste with a soft brush o...

The tiles, bathtub or sink in the bathroom of a rented flat or house may not always be to your liking. Consider making small changes before you rip out the whole bathroom. A splash of colour is the easiest way to brighten up a bathroom. "Light wall colours make a room appear larger and airier," says Mareike Hermann, a representative of the DIY Academy in Cologne. Although white paint is perhaps the preferred colour, light natural tones or pastels are also an option. If the bathroom is large, you could also try darker and bolder colours, but these can make the room look smaller. Beige and green...

Kids grow faster than parents ever expect. Before you know it, they've outgrown their cot, pram and high chair. But how can parents tell when it's time to move on from them, and how they foster their child's development?

"Every child has their own pace of development," she says, so parents shouldn't compare a child with siblings or...

For most people, buying a home is the biggest investment of their life. So it makes sense to take every risk into account. Increasingly, climate change is taking its toll on the property market, damaging and devaluing homes, and driving up insurance costs. US real estate site Realtor.com announced last week that it is expanding the climate risks on its property listings from fire and flooding, to current and projected future levels of heat, wind and air quality. Over 40 per cent of US homes are at severe or extreme risk when it comes to these factors, the realtor said in a press release. Some ...

A spring clean will help to prevent all that messy paperwork descending into chaos. "Sometimes you don't even know what you have anymore," says Petra Hermann, an organizational consultant based in Germany who specializes in business and private offices. Her advice is to generally scan documents and store them digitally on a laptop, an external storage disc or in the cloud. Only keep what you really still need as an analogue document in paper form, such as your rental agreem...
