Product Tip: Canon SX20 IS is a Quality Digital Camera

I bought a digital camera in 2005 that was great for then... it was a 4 megapixel camera and I probably paid about $245 for it.

Flash forward to 2010 and you can get a get an 8 megapixel camera such as the Sanyo Xacti VPC-S885 Blue 8MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom, 2.7" LCD, Face Detection for $59! Times have certainly changed.

So recently, I started researching Canon cameras and I was specifically looking for one that shoots video but allows you to zoom in and out. The camera that came up was the Canon Powershot SX20 IS 12.1MP Digital Camera + 8GB Deluxe Accessory Kit.

This camera is great! It takes fantastic photos and shoots HD Video with zoom!With the classically stylish PowerShot SX20 IS, you can produce magnificent HD movies and dazzling photos. Loaded with features, its got a high-powered 20x wide-angle optical zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer, 12.1 megapixels, a big 2.5-inch Vari-Angle LCD, Blink Detection and more. The PowerShot SX20 IS is equipped with many of the same features as a higher-end camera: an ultra-powerful zoom, eye-popping resolution and advanced picture-improving technology. 12.1 megapixels of resolution gives your photography incomparable depth and ensures that any section of any shot can be enlarged and cropped with no loss in quality when you edit the image even if you choose to print the image. It can create crisp, clear 13 x 19-inch posters.

Budget-Savvy Home: Spruce Up On A Shoe String

Even a bare-bones decorating budget doesn't mean you can't give your home a fresh look.

"One of the easiest and least expensive ways to spruce up your home is to subtract what's in it," says Ginny Bean, publisher and founder of Ginny's catalog and Ginnys.com.

Here are a few of Bean's low-cost, high-impact tips for giving your home a lift:

Clear the clutter. Clear stacks of books and magazines on coffee tables and throws on couches. Put books on shelves and magazines in a rack or basket. Tuck the throws in the linen closet and pack away knickknacks for a few months.

Rearrange the furniture. Try floating furniture in the room rather than hugging the walls. It's a great trick for making the space feel different and less structured. Swap out an item in your living room for one in your bedroom, or slide something from the kitchen into the dining room.

Spring for some color. A few touches of bright, saturated color can refresh any room and distract the eye from items that might be a bit dated. There's no need to break the bank. Think about pillows and placemats to incorporate the colors you want.

Accessorize. You can change your towels, shower curtain and bath accessories for under $100. Candles are another way to create an inviting room environment. Seasonal scents such as lavender and lemon leaf add color, freshness and intoxicating fragrance.

Go sheer. Replace heavy draperies with bright, lightweight curtains or sheers.

Remake your bed. Put away that heavy comforter or quilt in favor of a lighter bedspread. Mix and match solid-colored fitted and top sheets with pillowcases in various patterns. Tuck the top sheet tightly all around and fold the edge at the head of the bed over your coverlet or blanket. Fold your bedspread down to rest across the foot of the bed. Add accent pillows to create an inviting, luxurious-looking bed.

Assess your artwork. Is your wall decor light and bright or warm and cozy? Go for light and bright wherever possible.

Plant an idea. Put at least one houseplant in every room. Fill a low planter or kitchen serving dish with potting soil and some grass seed. For more decorating ideas and products, visit Ginnys.com or call (800) 487-9024 to request a catalog.
