Varieties of Fabric Shower Curtains
If you are looking for an easy, inexpensive way to revitalize your bathroom, consider changing your shower curtain. Though we often take them for granted, shower curtains are at the center of a bathroom's décor. As the largest thing in the room, they set the mood and the style temperature for the entire bathroom. In addition, since a bathroom is largely functional, a shower curtain is one of the few opportunities to make a statement. Shower curtains are available in many different styles, colors, and designs. They are also available in a variety of materials, such as vinyl, cotton, polyester, linen, and plastic. Some of the most popular, though, are the fabric shower curtains. Fabric shower curtains can be made from not only standard percale, but also denim, satin, brocade, and terry cloth, among many other fabrics. Most fabric shower curtains are machine washable, which means they are easy to care for. Most will require the use of a shower curtain liner. Fabric shower curtains can come in any style, from simple to sophisticated. They can be solid, a print, or with appliqués or embroidery. The possibilities are nearly endless. Some are shaped like traditional flat-paneled curtains; others are more creative in style. For a country look or a romantic one, ruffled curtains are a popular choice. Some fabric shower curtains mimic the look of window drapes, complete with top valance and pull-back sides. Fabric shower curtains are available with different attachment methods, as well, including button, tie, Velcro, snap, and the traditional hook. If you are feeling creative, fabric shower curtains are an easy do-it-yourself project. Complete directions are available at the Waverly website. Fabric curtains are a quick and easy way to give your bathroom an inexpensive bathroom makeover. They are available in any style and any color that you desire. You can then base the entire room's color and decorations around the curtain. Voila! Instant style.

Decorating Kids Bedrooms - Get Them involved! I believe kids are born creative. Unfortunately living life usually squelches most of that creativity unless it is carefully nurtured. You can help your children maintain their creative nature by allowing them to express it. That's where interior decorating for kids comes in. The Benefits of Exterior Shutters When you see a house for the first time, one of the first things you notice are the windows. Are they big or small? Are they a simple square or an unusual shape? Are they plain or decorated? And do they have shutters? Shutters complement most homes -- they add an element of traditional beauty. The Value of Wedgwood China If Josiah Wedgwood were alive today, even he would be surprised at the large sums of money changing hands for some of his early work. Still intact, still complete early collections are almost priceless, especially the ones owned by royalty and celebrities. Many have come up for auction at prestigious auction houses around the world and have garnered quite a large amount of interest from well-heeled investors looking for something interesting to spend their money on. Psychology Of Colors: The Dining Room Colors affect our minds, our physiologies, and our social interactions. The colors you choose when decorating a room can have an effect on any occasion that you hold there. The dining room is a place of delicate social situations that occurs between the most intimate of relationships. By first considering the psychological effects of the following colors, one can help to make the dining room a more relaxing place to eat and gather. Country Home Decorating ? Country Style Home Decor the Way Life Used to Be What is the lure and appeal of country home decorating? Maybe it's the desire to escape the rush and demands of a hectic lifestyle. It could be the need to return to a time when life was simpler, perhaps even happier. The necessities of rural life are what influence today's country style home decor. Are Your Houseplants Safe? There is nothing more attractive and cheerful than a room filled with healthy green houseplants. They offer aesthetics to the interior of our homes, improve indoor air quality, and often provide emotional satisfaction to the caregiver in getting the plant to bloom or produce new growth. However, did you know that plant exposures are some of the most frequent poisonings reported to poison control centers? The Function of Hurricane Shutters Every part of the world has its share of natural disasters. Flooding, earthquakes, monsoons and tornadoes -- most every region occasionally suffers some unpleasant or dangerous weather. Living near the Gulf of Mexico, hurricanes are the most common threat. As others have summer, winter, spring, and fall, the Gulf has an additional season: hurricane season. Though residents get a bit used to the near-constant warnings about tropical storms and tropical depressions nearing hurricane strength, a laissez faire attitude is dangerous. Feng Shui Decorating Guidelines The importance of following feng shui decorating guidelines. Goose Down Comforters ? Warm, Cozy, and Lightweight Who wouldn't want a goose down comforter and a pretty duvet cover to keep warm at night? There is nothing that holds your body heat in and keeps the cold out like goose down. Goose down comforters are made with the down sewn in baffles between specially designed fabric. The feathers do a good job of keeping the goose warm and they do the same thing for us. You will usually find the comforters in white and you want to protect them, so add a pretty duvet cover and your bedroom is well on its way to being beautiful as well as cozy. When it comes to goose down comforters and duvet covers, price is an issue. You can find both at any price, but the lesser expensive ones are not as warm because the goose feathers will fall down to the edges creating thin layers on top for you to sleep under. This is not good for a cold winter night. If your comforter is constructed correctly, the goose feathers will stay within the baffles and you will continue to have a fluffy warm comforter. Watch for sales and end of the year clearance prices for a great savings on real goose down comforters. Baby Quilts ? Traditional Or With A Twist I am not a quilter in the typical sense, but I love making small coverlets and quilts for babies when I am not making wall hangings. All you need is some cute and colorful fabric. I use a method of fabric manipulation that is just a free form method of quilting on the sewing machine. Just take a plain piece of muslin and piece a collage of sorts on top of it from your cute fabric stash. You can also just take a plain piece of adorable fabric and lay it on top of the muslin without piecing if that is easier for you. Put it in the sewing machine and start stitching with some matching and contrasting thread and just free form the stitches. It's up to you how you want it to look. Stitch it a little or a lot and don't be afraid to change your stitches either. Even if you have a very basic sewing machine like I do, you can do a lot with just a zig zag stitch. I can imagine how you quilting pros would be able to make it look unique and different. When you have the stitches the way you want them; throw it in the washing machine. This will shrink and pucker because of all the stitching. Because of the shrinking, make sure you increase the size of piece to allow about two inches of shrinking per side. Put batting underneath and complete the quilt as usual. I have also done wall hangings for people completed in different methods or just left unfinished and raw looking as well. If you have a cute collage for babies or have done some photo transfer work, you can make something customized for the nursery. It would look great on the wall too. A Look at Water Softener Systems Do you ever feel like nothing you do when you clean works? Do you still feel dirty when you get out of the shower? Does your hair feel dry after you wash it? The problem may not be the soap or detergents you are using. Your problem might be hard water.
