Now let's help you become the floor designer. |This is becoming mainstream here in Nigeria and we want you to take the advantage as demand will increase. the training!

3D Floors

Whether you’ve got wood, tile, laminate, or even rubber flooring in your home, it probably won’t ever compare to the mind-blowingly realistic 3D epoxy floors seen in the photos below, offered by the Dubai-based company Imperial Interiors. The flooring incorporates angled images along with multiple translucent layers to achieve the incredible 3D effect. The result? Plants, animals, fish, coral, and even waves that look like they’re popping up from below as you walk into the room!

Epoxy Floors

When it comes to the overall value and visual appeal of any residential property, one of the most critically measured aspects is that of finished, useable floor space. Epoxy floor coating systems turn dirty and distressed concrete floors into attractive, durable, easy to clean, useful surfaces. The superior protection UCoat It provides from deterioration or contamination will greatly reduce the need for floor repairs caused by salts and chemicals that breakdown concrete. Our floor coatings will help beautify and protect virtually any concrete or wood surface and is available in multiple color and finishes to fit any decor. Our products are water based, allowing residential homeowners to coat interior areas like basements, utility rooms, workshops without the worry of obnoxious odors and flammability issues.


Floor Coatings Are Ideal For:
Garage Areas
Basements
Kitchens
Bathrooms
Utility
Exterior Patios & Porches
Pet Areas
Pole Barns

When you're in the market for upgrading your flooring, it becomes almost impossible to figure out the best flooring for your house.

And just what does best flooring mean anyway? That depends on several factors, all of which are applicable to your own situation.

Before we proceed with our best flooring overview, ask yourself:

Budget - What is in your budget? If you cannot spend more than $1,000 on a kitchen floor, then granite, solid hardwood, and engineered wood are not options.

Location - Where is the floor being installed? Will the flooring be in a wet location, semi-wet, dry, high-traffic, etc? How will the selected flooring hold up in these areas?

Maintenance - What about maintenance needs? This is more of a personality decision than a flooring decision Any type of flooring--even the least durable--can be used for decades if properly maintained. But if you don't normally like to maintain your floor per manufacturers' instructions, then you need to reconsider your choice.

Looks and Feel - Most homeowners place this question at the top of their list; we place it at the bottom, below the more pragmatic issues listed above. Oddly enough, the look of your flooring is becoming less critical as the years go by, as flooring manufacturers become more adept at reproducing the look of natural stone or wood in both laminate and resilient flooring versions. But it's hard to reproduce the warmth of solid hardwood or the solidity of stone.


Concrete floors

If concrete flooring makes you think of garage floors and sidewalks, think again. Concrete flooring is slowly establishing itself as one of the best flooring options for mid-budget homeowners.

Today's concrete staining and stamping methods have really opened up concrete to all, making it a must-have on this best flooring list. There are endless ways to embellish a concrete floor. From radiant heating to inlaid tile, the possibilities are limited only by a designer's imagination.

Concrete flooring is making a comeback in high-end remodels for its ease of use and lasting beauty. Shop online for examples of colors and textures that would suit your needs, and rest assured that concrete maintenance is by far one of the easiest in the flooring industry.

With a properly sealed concrete floor, stains are not an issue. As to impact resistance, this is concrete after all. Need we say more?

5. SPORTS GAME

I personally think a ball cap is one of the cutest looks right now. Maybe you aren’t that interested in the game and only in your date, but you will look like you know what is going on by rocking the team’s hat. This will impress your guy while making you look adorable AND of course, keeping the sun out of your eyes!

Check out the beautiful Toke!

4. BEACH

I am sure you have all done this before. Not only is it practical to bring a hat to the beach, but it can also be super trendy. A ball cap or fedora works best for the beach as it shows a chill attitude while keeping the sun away from your scalp. Make sure to bring a hat that is durable and that you are not afraid to get wet and of course full of sand.

3. CASUAL PARTY

This is one of the perfect places where you can wear hats. What's better than at a party? You can pair a hat with your cutest summer dress, or shorts and your lover's sweater. You will look super chic while drinking and dancing along to your fav tunes.

2. BABY SHOWER

For your tea parties and outdoor baby showers, a hat is the perfect finishing touch. Like the olden days, ladies would dress in their best attire and add a little spice on top with the cutest hat. Make no exception for us ladies! Go for light pinks and whites to keep it soft and feminine and this will look will scream, "Yeah, I just threw this on..."

1. WEDDING

Why let the celebs have all the fun? There is no one to say that you can’t wear a funky hat to the list of weddings you have. Like Genevieve Nnaji , try wearing a hat that is the same color of your dress, and go for as high to the sky as you can! If you feel like you shouldn’t wear a hat in church, just simply slide it off once the ceremony starts but pop it right back on for all the pictures.

My friends keep asking me, "What are some places where you can wear hats?" It surprises me every time as a hat is my staple in a lot of outfits. How many times have you heard someone say "Noo! I can’t pull off a hat!" Yeah right! Think again ladies!

There is no reason why you can’t sport a hat with all the events you have going on. With all these adorable wide brimmed hats and fedoras, there is also NO excuse as to why you can’t find the perfect one. So to make it easier on all of you, I rounded up 5 places where you can wear hats to.

Meanwhile, you should note that Facinators are a kind of hats that do not entirely cover your head and they are usually pinned to your hair. They display real class and luxury. You should rock them.

Don't for forget to reach Metoks Craft for your custom made fascinators and hats. So now let's begin

boiling here, I took the pot off the heat to take the photo as the steam was interfering with the picture quality…
After 3 minutes, pour the cooked seafood into a colander and set the stock aside.

When the pepper has fried and oil has settled on the top as pictured below:

When it’s tender, add the crab claws and cook for 7 minutes. After 7 minutes, add the rest of the seafood and crayfish, cook for 5 minutes.

Get another pot, add 3 cups of water, chopped onions, add salt, garlic powder and your other seasoning, bring to a rolling boil , throw in the Stockfish and cook for 5 minutes or until the Stockfish become slightly tender, by then it would have released some flavour into the stock. Taste your stock as it needs to be well seasoned, if you haven’t got chicken or beef stock available, you’ll be using the stock later.

Nothing beats the flavour of stockfish in soups…

Next, add the blended pepper, Maggi crayfish and fry for 10-12 minutes…

Get a big size pot, set on a hob on medium heat, add the chopped onions, sauté till fragrant. Then add the locust beans and 1 tablespoon crayfish, sauté for a minute

cook, blend the Tatashe, 2 Rodo and 1/2 of the Onion till smooth and set aside.

Wash the Okra thoroughly, blend or grate 1/4 of the Okra roughly and chop the rest a bit chunky (Blend the entire Okra roughly if you don’t fancy chewy Okra soup) also chop 1 Atarodo and set aside…

Preparation:

Firstly, properly scrub and clean the crab claws if you’re using any as the shells harbour all sorts of dirt. I scrubbed mine with a little kitchen brush. also, to devien your prawns and clean them up. Then, marinate all the seafood and fish. To marinate the crab claws, crack the shells in one of two places, this is so the marinade can penetrate into the meat…
Then mix some seasoning with salt and garlic powder, rub the seafood with this and chuck in the fridge overnight. Do the same with the fish but mix with a little bit of olive oil as well, and toss in the fridge overnight… This is quite necessary if you’re cooking Tilapia, Tilapia is quite a bland and almost naturally tasteless.

Ingredients

-30-40 pieces of Okra

-1 big piece Fish of your choice( I’m using Tilapia)

-6-8 Crab Claws or 4 Medium Crabs

-3 Cups Mixed Seafood

-1 Cooking Spoon Palm Oil

-2-3 Cups Meat/Seafood Stock (Seafood stock ideally but we can break the rule on this occasion) <

-1 Red Bell Pepper ( Tatashe)

-3 Scotch Bonnet (Atarodo)

-1 Big Onion

-2-3 pieces Stockfish

-3 Heaped Tablespoons Ground Crayfish

-2 Tablespoon Locust Beans (Iru)

-1 Maggi Crayfish or other Bouillon Cube of your choice

-Soup Seasoning of your choice ( I’m using Aromat seasoning)

-1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder

-Salt to taste

Let's start with the most popular - Seafood Okra

Stewed Seafood Okra recipe is basically a Nigerian Okra soup dish. It is a fusion of Okra, Seafood and spicy pepper sauce. You will love love this meal, trust me!

I'll share steps below

So a few weeks ago, a lady called me as usual to order for seafood. She asked what kinds of seafood I had and I gave her my list including prawns, calamari, lobsters et al. The only problem was that she didn't quite know what exactly she could make with this, and I believe a lot of Nigerians have this same challenge.

We love seafood, yes, but oya what do we cook it withor how do we even make? In fact, beyond prawns, people don't even know what to use other seafood like calamari and lobsters for. In that light I will be sharing 7 of my favorite seafood delicacies and their recipes. Stay glued and please share yours too.

Meanwhile don't forget to call me or send me a whatsapp chat via 09091772274 if you need seafood
