Rugs to decorate your house and other places with elegance. They will never fail to compliment any type of decoration you have. You can hide area rugs inside the bedrooms or inside the living rooms.
One thing we were doing was extending the closet door from 6 feet to 7 feet. We'd have gone to 8 feet, but couldn't find sliders to fit. Though the original thought was to be symmetrical, instead we opened up the left-hand side almost all the way, since that's where the shelving would be. That meant taking out drywall all the way to the existing switch.
Roller Blinds are not the only blinds that you can use for your windows. Indeed, there are now different types of blinds that are available in different colours as well. Therefore, if you have the great idea to change your blinds but you have limited amount of money.
As promised here is the completed grouting of the backsplash. Now everything needs to be sealed to make it all waterproof, then I can install the sink.
One of the most popular window treatments in Dubai is wooden Venetian blinds. These blinds are perfect for both indoor and outdoor use and will provide the privacy you need and the energy savings you want.
Waiting for better pictures this spring... but here's a built-in bench with storage in a wall around the edge of a patio...
Okay, great fans, time for a kitchen renovation update. I've cleaned out the pantry (took out shelves, took out the 2x4's that held the shelves up, cleaned in the newly-liberated closet that holds the water heater, bought a shelving system at The Container Store, not posted any photos of that process) and now I'm stripping and sanding the door. Pretty new hinges coming when I get around to it, I'm compiling the next Lowe's shopping list.
But you look at the above image, taken after I'd sanded both solid sides of the door, and say, "But Mushy, you sleek and sexy handymushroom you! That door has dozens of slats that are painted in latex on one side of the door, and are kinda grubby on the other side from years of dust! What is your next cunning manoeuver?" (If you didn't say it when you arrived at this paragraph, follow the script above immediately. "But Mushy..." I'll wait. Good, good.) Glad you asked. Uh, I don't know, I'm figuring that I'll put on the special Mouse™ attachment that will let me get into the crevices -- hey, darkhairedgirl, what were you saying about how anything can be an innuendo? -- to see how much paint I can get off the front (I know there will be chunks, due to the spraying of stripper around the edges) and dirt can be dislodged from the back. Then the whole sh'bang will be painted the same "grey ashar" as the cabinets, regardless of whether there's still paint on the slats or not.
It's not a crackheaded fix, it's working with the flaws of the materials available and obscuring/repairing previous fails.... and unlike the previous owners did, both sides of the door and the slats will be painted. I feel a little slackerish that I didn't complete this on Tuesday (or start on Monday) but as you can guess, I took one look at this when I got it out in the driveway and thought "meh, inconvenient detail work".
Our living room has/had white walls, white ceiling, white trim and white curtains. Blah city! My husband made home improvements to the house about 10 years ago before he met me and so everything was white. Our house is old and has big rooms with high ceilings so the white really doesn't work! We finally started painting!! I'm so excited!!!!
In preparation of the new siding being installed a dumpster was dropped off. For some reason the driver decided to place it in front of our garage blocking us from getting in or out. Ugh
Once upon time, in a quiet village, stood a small bungalow, which suffered from neglect because its owners didn't have any money to maintain it properly. A sign "for sale" had been standing in the front garden for a very long time, but nobody was interested since the bungalow was of very modern design, which was a sharp contrast to the rest of the historic village. Day after day the wood rotted away and nature slowly took over the garden, until only a complete make-over could help the bungalow to survive...
So here's all the "glacier ice brick" glass around the inner surfaces of the window and the quarter-round ceramic pieces framing them in. I'm waiting for a friend to show up so this is good for today.
With random basement paint. I wasn't expecting much (it's particle-board and veneer), but it's done and ready to put back up, and it looks fricken amazing.
A window blind is typically a kind of window covering with slats or louvers. There are several types of window blinds that make use of various control systems. There is the conventional kind of window blind which is often made out of cloth. Such blinds may be rolled up, drawn along the slats, or completely closed. Another style of window blinds makes use of louvers and vertical slats that can only be adjusted by moving the slats in a specific direction.

I got tired of the mice that moved under this old wood landing so after work today I tore it up filled the hole with gravel and sand and put paver stones on it -they are a little wobbly but a few godd rains and they will be fine. Take that mice!

I haven't gotten around to putting something up on this wall yet, but I wanted to show you tom's cool recycled-fence shelf.
With my commute being so crappy, I work from home at least once a week now. My old work area was just not comfortable. So the home office underwent a major revamp. Much happier with it now.
You can also take the help of the website designers to select the best type of curtains. If you are looking for affordable window treatments for Dubai, you must look out for the designer brands that produce quality window treatments.
Awhile ago I'd said I wanted to get another shelf and a second basket for the pantry shelving systeme -- that happened yesterday. When I was reassembling I realized one more shelf was overkill since baskets are large (and it's good to have a couple wider spaced shelves for things taller than soup cans) but figured I could put the shelf at the bottom so the soda cases aren't on the floor and the legs have better stablization. So now the shelving is how I wanted it.
The green sticker on the upper right, which was put on the basket by the clerk at The Container Store to appease the unseen forces of security, says "Another organized customer." Yeah, if only that was true beyond the shelving... :)
We're taking out this weird little planter that mostly just impeded parking and access to the backyard.

As part of prep for the upcoming electrical work for the building I needed to remove enough concrete so the electricians could run the trencher between the house and building. I still had the saw blade from the last time I needed to cut up some concrete so I only needed to rent the saw.
Another shot of the room, this one shows the new window casing & sill which D built.
