A Chandelier Highlight the Rooms in Your Home
April 20th, 2009 . by adminOne aspect that can highlight the appearance of your home is by providing a chandelier. A chandelier will not only emphasize the beauty of the room but will provide a touch of elegance and style as well. Visiting a beautiful home will furnish you the opportunity to notice the very intricate design of a chandelier. The number of bulbs that make up the chandelier provides a certain type of illumination that will make you see things clearly especially in the dark. You will also discover that this type of lighting blends well with its surrounding furniture and fixtures. There has to be a balance between the chandelier and the furnishings so that these can make up a beautiful, elegant home.
1. Your sentence:
I hardly knew Ben Dawson, the son, from High School.
High school does not need to be capitalized unless it is the actual name of the school.
Ex: The students attended Jefferson High School.
The high school students attended the party.
2. The following sentence reads a bit awkward:
. . . and she toured me around their home, showing me many family pictures.
Perhaps you could say something like:
. . . she gave me a tour of her home . . .
3. Your sentence:
Looking at the photos I told her "What a wonderful family she and Dr. Dawson had raised and that they had a beautiful home".
The quotations are not needed. You are not speaking here, rather recounting what you spoke about.
4. Your sentence:
I rode the special needs bus van to school . . .
Choose either bus or van but both is redundant.
5. "curteous" is misspelled. it should be "courteous."
6.. Your sentence:
After a while, I called my parents who at first seemed surprised and very concerned that I had made an uninvited visit to the Dawson's, who we really did not know at all.
You say "at first" but don't say anything that indicates their mood or emotion had changed. The sentence also reads awkward.You might try:
After a while, I called my parents who, barely knowing the Dawsons, were surprised and concerned to hear about my unannounced visit.
I like your quote. Good Luck.
