I te ao o ngā whakapaipai whare, he mea nui ngā taipitopito. Ko ia mea e whiriwhiria ana e koe ka pā ki te āhua whānui o tō wāhi, ā, kāore he mea e pai ake te whakaatu i tō tuakiri i te whakapaipai uku i hangaia e koe. Ehara i te mea he mea whakapaipai noa iho ā mātou hoahoa ahurei; he tohu ēnei i te toi me te mahi toi, e huri ana i tētahi rūma hei wāhi okiokinga oraora.
Ko ā mātou whakapaipai uku ā-ringa, he mea hanga ātaahua e ngā tohunga toi, he tauira porowhita whakamīharo e kukume ana i te kanohi. Ko ngā rārangi hihiri, auau hoki e hanga ana i te ahua o te nekehanga, ko ngā taha pōkarekare e wehe atu ana i ngā āhua ā-ira tuku iho, e kukume ana i te kanohi. Ko te aro ki ngā taipitopito te mea e motuhake ai ā mātou whakapaipai. He mea hanga ātaahua ia wahi kia tino ahurei ai ia wahi. Ka whakamahia e ngā tohunga toi ō rātou ngākau nui me ō rātou pūkenga ki ia piko me ia āhua, ka hua ake he wahi ataahua ehara i te mea anake engari e mōhiotia ana hoki e ō rātou ake āhua ahurei.
E rua ngā rahi e wātea ana—iti (31 x 10 x 26 henimita) me te rahi (39 x 33 x 9.5 henimita)—he maha ngā whakamahinga o ēnei whakapaipai, ā, ka taea te urutau ki ngā momo whakapaipai katoa. Ahakoa he āhua iti, he momo kāhua rerekē rānei tāu e pai ai, ka pai te hanumi o ā mātou whakapaipai ki tō whare. He tino pai te rahi iti mō te whakapaipai i ngā whata, i ngā mantel, i ngā papa tēpu rānei, ko te rahi nui ia he mea tino pai hei whakaoti i te rūma noho, i te tomokanga rānei.
Mō te tae, e rua ā mātou kōwhiringa tino ataahua: he paninga mā parakore tawhito me ngā momo karaihe e rua—he karaihe kōwhai mārama me te karaihe hina-papura me ngā āhua parauri. Ka puta te āhua mā parakore i te āhua huatau, he kōwhiringa tawhito mō ngā kaupapa whakapaipai katoa. I tētahi atu taha, ka tāpirihia e ngā tae karaihe he pā mahana me te tuakiri, ka taea e koe te whiriwhiri i tētahi mea e pai ana ki tō momo kāhua. Ko ngā piko rere me te āhua ahurei o ia mea ka waihanga i tētahi pānga tirohanga hihiri me te toi, ka nui atu i ngā mea whakapaipai anake; he mea kōrerorero anō hoki.
Ko te uara o ā mātou whakapaipai uku ā-ringa he nui atu i tōna ataahua. I roto i tētahi ahumahi e kaha haere ana te whakaputa papatipu, ka whakanuia e ā mātou whakapaipai te ataahua o te mahi toi me te tuakiri. Ka tukuna e rātou ki ngā kaihoko te whai wāhi ki te haumi ki ngā taonga ahurei e kōrero ana i tētahi kōrero—ngā taonga i hangaia me te aroha me te aro ki ngā taipitopito. Mā te whiriwhiri i ā mātou whakapaipai, ehara i te mea ka whakarei ake koe i tō whakapaipai kāinga engari ka tautoko hoki i ngā tohunga toi e whakatapua ana ō rātou wā me te kaha ki ā rātou mahi toi.
Whakaarohia tētahi o ā mātou taonga whakapaipai i runga i tō tēpu kawhe, ka kitea te māramatanga, ā, ka noho hei pokapū o te rūma. Whakaarohia i runga i tētahi whata pukapuka, e karapotia ana e ngā pukapuka me ngā tipu, e tāpiri ana i tētahi pānga toi ki tō oranga o ia rā. He tino pai ēnei taonga whakapaipai mō ngā huihuinga katoa, ahakoa kei te whakapaipai koe mō tētahi huihuinga motuhake, kei te hiahia noa rānei koe ki te whakahou i tō wāhi noho. He koha whakaaro nui hoki ēnei mō ngā whanaunga, e kawe mai ana i tētahi tuakiri ahurei e kore e taea te whakataurite e ngā hua i hangaia i te nuinga.
Hei whakamutunga, ehara i te mea he whakapaipai noa iho ā mātou mahi uku ā-ringa; he whakanui i te toi, te mahi toi, me te tuakiri. Mā ngā hoahoa ahurei, ngā tauira kanapa, me te maha o ngā whakamahinga, ka tino whakarei ake i tō whare me te waihanga i tētahi āhuarangi kanapa. Mā te whiriwhiri i ā mātou mahi, ehara i te mea kei te whakarei ake koe i tō wāhi anake engari kei te tautoko hoki i ngā tohunga toi e hanga ana i ēnei mahi toi tino ataahua. Awhitia te ataahua o te mahi toi ā-ringa, ā, tukua ā mātou mahi uku ahurei kia huri tō whare hei piringa auaha me te kāhua.
