Воодушевленность Headboard для того чтобы обернуть вашу головку вокруг Posted: 01 Apr 2011 08:00 AM PDT Headboard простой способ добавить драму к спальне. Забудьте покупать сюиту спальни. Забудьте даже покупать всю машинную плиту с headboard и footboard. Думайте снаружи [] коробка и учитывайте варианты имеющейся к вам. С меньшим преднамерением, и некоторой покупкой потехи вокруг (или потехой строя на ваших), вы можете создать headboard как никакое другое. Взгляните на этих воодушевленностях. Настолько ретро, настолько холодно. Эта зеленая кожа добавляет славный цвет и яркий блеск на счастливое доброе утро. Эта спальня не уникально? Взгляните через блошинные и античные магазины для headboard которому нужна некоторая влюбленность. Возьмите его с тканью которая добавит жизнь и индивидуальность к вашему космосу. Традиционный шарм здесь. Этот headboard удивительно легок для того чтобы сделать. Действительно просто сборище покрашенных древесины и прессформы. Так уточнено, настолько легко. Добавьте драму с drapery. Здесь сверхконтрастный цвет стоит вне, но рассматривает также добавить бархат или более существенную ткань в подобном цвете как ваши стены и постельные принадлежности, создавая ровную непрерывность.

Почему разрешения здания сусло! Posted: 01 Apr 2011 06:38 AM PDT by Robert Wright Many times I get asked about permits for a renovation project. Many people don't want to spend the money or are private. They also don't understand why they are needed and when. It's about your safety (and peace of mind). I have again visited a renovation gone bad. As we discuss the various issues, I asked if they have had any permits pulled….the answer was "I don't know". This is the wrong answer. It also confirmed some of my thoughts about the project. Not a good situation all way round. So how hard is it to get a permit? An electrical permit is done with a phone call to ESA. Homeowners can pull one as well as an electrician. ESA has been getting very tough on non permit installations. This is because too many people are getting hurt and houses are burning down. With current regulations, a building permit has to be issued in 2 weeks if there are no problems with the application and other documents. It usually takes the design professional at least 2 weeks to produce drawings suitable for the application process. What about a building permit? Every municipality is a bit different about which permits are required when. When you are only changing finishes, usually no permits are required. You will need a building permit for most renovation work and usually also a plumbing permit. In addition, you may need a HVAC and gas permit. The biggest expense for a building permit is not the fee. It is preparing the drawings and documents for the permit application. The architect, interior designer, and/or the engineer make sure what will work well for you and ensure it will stand up. The design fee can range from about $1k to many k's. The permit fees can be less than $100.00. So what does a permit give you? The biggest thing it gives you is peace of mind and safety. When you apply for permits the city confirms that nothing being planned has a code issue. When you have the new work inspected at the various stages, they confirm that the work is competed to code. So how does this give you peace of mind? God forbid you have a major problem and you have to make an insurance claim. One of the first questions you will be asked is "Who did the work and was permit "pulled"?" The worse case scenario is the insurance company denies the claim or they pay out the claim and you can not get insurance in the future. As Clint once said, "do you feel lucky?"

Большие проказы дня дурачков в Эйприл и мебель, котор нужно пойти с ими Posted: 01 Apr 2011 05:17 AM PDT It’s the one day of year when it’s okay to be silly. It’s April Fools Day and on every April 1 since 1582 when it first began, people have been pulling pranks and telling jokes. Well, we here at Fixr love a good joke, so here are the top five best April fool day pranks courtesy of The Museum of Hoaxes:
So now that we’ve inspired your joking side, here are some furniture pieces that are just a little whimsical, just a tad silly and just perfect to admire on a silly day like today: His designs are functional yet they’re also works of art. He’s Vincent Thomas Leman and he’s the owner and designer of Dust Furniture, a collection of furniture that takes traditional, everday pieces and totally turns them on their head. Admiring Leman’s creations are the perfect way to celebrate April Fool’s Day! The following piece, called The Acrobats is crafted from high quality domestic birch panels with a sustainable wood fiber core. And as the name suggests, the piece is based on two performing acrobats, the lower supporting the upper as they perform. How clever! Similar to the The Acrobat, Together We Can is crafted from high quality domestic birch panels with a sustainable wood fiber core and was designed around the concept of three people lifting each other up to reach a higher goal. At first glance it kind of looks like a grandfather clock (a grandfather clock that’s had too much to drink perhaps!). Called Clock No. 1, this piece is based one the abstraction of a traditional grandfather clock and is crafted from high quality domestic birch panels with a sustainable wood fiber core. Now that’s eco-friendly and fun! Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s got the coolest mirror of all? You will if you get your hands on this mirror called quite simply, Mirror No. 4. Looking like something the Evil Witch from Sleeping Beauty would gaze into, this mirror, like, all Dust pieces, is made from high quality domestic birch panels with a sustainable wood fiber core. Sure you can have a bookcase. But why have just any old bookcase when you can have this striking one called Bookcase No.7? Looking like something out of Beauty and the Beast, this piece is made from high quality domestic birch panels with a sustainable wood fiber core and finished with vibrant, high quality & environmentally friendly paints. Now that’s beautiful! Like Vincent Thomas Leman, Jason Beaumont also has an abstract eye when it comes to furniture. Beaumont’s Straight Line Designs, for which he is both owner and designer, creates furniture that is both functional and totally out of the box. Looking for a place to hang that little black dress? Well, how about in the Little Black Dresser. Crafted from maple veneer and aluminum, this dresser is as practical as it is sexy! Looking like its legs were shaped by a very creative fire, Burnt Table looks just too silly for its own good! It’s very easy to think of a can of sardines when looking at this next piece. Entitled Canned Bench, this piece is made from eastern maple, maple veneer and birch plywood and makes for a very eye-catching piece on April Fools Day or any other day. Is it an octopus or some new sea creature? No, it’s Squiddy, Beaumont’s clever take on a coffee table. Crafted from alder, this piece looks like something straight out of a Tim Burton movie! If there’s any day that’s appropriate to appreciate a table like this next one, it’s April Fools Day! Called Bad Table, this piece is crafted from western maple, maple veneer and aluminium and is defintlely worth a double take. Have you always wanted to live in a Dr. Seuss cartoon? Well, thanks to Cartoon Furniture your dream can now come true. Cartoon Furniture is the brainchild of Randall and Sharon Porter, who combined their experiences as an architectural lighting designer and make-up artist to form this furniture company that creates pieces cool enough for the kid all of us! Want to make your guests green with envy? Then show them this chest aptly called, Green Envy. Have an empty space somewhere that needs some eye-catching color? Then how about this piece called Sadie Side Table. With its clever design and punch of color, this is one silly, yet practical table. At the end of the day, it’s all about the bed. And when you can fall asleep in the Zzzed Bed, all your dreams are sure to be good (and maybe a little wacky!) They look like bookcases that were perhaps created by The Cat in the Hat himself (but they weren’t)! Created by Sang Hoon Kim these wooden bookshelves are warped and twisted and look unique from every possible angle. Now we want to hear from you: are you observing April Fools Day? |
Выигрывая мастерские: Stuart Deutsch ToolGuyd Posted: 31 Mar 2011 01:48 PM PDT Мы запускаем новый сериал профилируя мастерские наших друзей, семей, читателей и других домашнего улучшения и bloggers инструмента. Мы надеемся что эти профили выигрывая мастерских воодушевляют некоторые идеи для вас приложить к вашему собственному месту для работы также, как выставка некоторые новаторские пути хранить и использовать инструменты которые полезны к вашему процессу проекта. Наша первая выигрывая мастерская от Stuart Deutsch который человек за блогом инструмента, ToolGuyd. Мы сперва встретили Stuart на случае DeWALT в прошлом году и мы знали он приняло его инструменты серьезно. Мы спрашивали, что он делит некоторые фото его мастерской так же, как внутри иметь слова как он setup магазин и что воодушевляет его. Он работает от его квартиры поэтому космос вопрос но мы думаем что он делало большую работу с ресурсами и комнатой имеющимися к ему. Больше от Stuart: Я никогда действительно не буду учитывать DIYer до несколько недавно. Раньше то, я только думал себя как hobbyist. Немного лет тому назад, если вы хотели малую, котор катят платформу робототехники экспериментировать с, то вы себя построили ее. Если вы хотели улучшить охлаждая представление или уровни шума компьютера, то вы себя просверлили золоедины и припаяли совместно управляемые схемы скорости вентилятора. Большая часть из моей воодушевленности DIY приходит от этих хобби, от случайной потребности создать изготовленное на заказ разрешение которое не может быть купленным магазином. Также thril и и соответствие производить что-то уникально, творческое или полезное. Конечно некоторые из моих деятельностей при DIY приходят из необходимости или потребности сохранить немного установок самецов оленя также - небольших здесь, малые ремонты туда. |
Posted: 31 Mar 2011 12:15 PM PDT Мы говорили несколько времен здесь на C&H о жить через широкомасштабную реновацию. Исчезаете ли вы к недолгосрочной резиденции или setup временные комнаты, никакое сомнение что remodeling нарушает ваш образ жизни в течении продолжительности проекта. (Только результаты? Так стоимость оно!) Мы пришли через интересный столб на Tell'er совсем о ем с first-hand принимать на очищать во время реновации. Начальная мысль та вероятно скачет для того чтобы запомнить? Беспредметно, дано все пыль и твердые частицы которая постоянн будут плавать вокруг во время проекта. Но вы не хотите беспорядок получить слишком unmanageable на риске отговаривать фактический проект или создавать условия которые граничат на unlivable. Мы любим подход отличено на Tell'er совсем о ем. Каждая ноча, пара работает до короткий контрольный списоок который включает вакуумировать (да, они делает его изо дня в день!). Они также держат инструменты и другие DIY-родственные предметы из их спальни, о поддерживают restful святилище к которому они могут отходить в конце длиннего дня. |
Когда ваш дом говорит: Наши отношения с нашими домами Posted: 31 Mar 2011 12:00 PM PDT What is the difference between a house and a home? Well, most of whatever it is can be hard to define. But, regardless of the specifics, over a period of time spent in a house, a relationship does begin to form between the space and those who live there. Sometimes, it’s a good fit. Sometimes, not. Interior design expert, and writer Beryn Hammil muses on the ineffable bond between home and home owner which goes beyond simple bricks and mortar. *** A client recently said to me, "I'm moving to an apartment because my house is kicking me out." "Interesting," I thought. She continued by telling me that little by little the house was sending her signals that she should no longer be living in it, and that she should move to an apartment building that had a maintenance crew. Most of us view our homes as sanctuaries from the variables of the world outside, a little place in the vast universe where we have a small sense of control in the face of what goes on in the world outside. So later that afternoon when I returned home, I looked at my house and thought about the message it's sending me. I maintain, paint, and repair it whenever it asks, and sometimes before it does. It's been structurally updated a few times, once because I wanted to, and more than once because it asked me to, an expensive drainage system being a good case in point. My house is my sanctuary, my interior design laboratory, my family's home, and my pride and joy. I love showing it off to guests, holding guided tours with commentary when requested, and as a result, the house glows and sparkles proudly. We're a good fit, my house and me. I've lived here for a long time; this house was my "starter" house. It's now my "downsize to" house (I skipped that whole McMansion thing), and it's my dream to live here for many more years to come. So, house, speak kindly to me, and I'll always take good care of you as you do of me. The moral of this story: If you take good care of your house, it will provide you with a sense of home when it speaks to you. *** Thanks, Beryn!

5 напольных подсказок освещения для того чтобы осветить вверх напольное жизненное пространство Posted: 31 Mar 2011 09:00 AM PDT Spring has sprung! Or, at least it soon will. And to prepare, it’s a good idea to think about your life outdoors, on your deck or patio. Since we have brighter days and warmer nights to look forward to, maybe you’re thinking about those early evening gatherings of friends in your backyard that you enjoyed so much last spring and summer. One thing that can add to that experience, as the sun slowly sets over the festivities, is the business of practical, and atmospheric outdoor lighting. And since it’s her area of expertise, Emily Widle of Pegasus Lighting talks about five ways to incorporate tasteful outdoor lighting to your space in this guest post … *** As the weather starts to warm up and the daylight lingers longer, it will soon be time to enjoy your outdoor living area again. Whether you have a tiny apartment balcony or a sprawling backyard with a dining area and pool, having great lighting outdoors will really enhance your space. It simply opens up the area to more possibilities. You can grill out later in the evening, entertain with a leisurely cocktail party/dinner, or even take a book outside at dusk. You probably already have a standard wall sconce or built-in area light, but have you thought about using lighting to improve the ambiance? The tips below will help you revive that patio so you can spend more time in the great outdoors! 1. Outdoor lighting for the grilling area: Add a task light by the grill and burning the steaks will become a thing of the past. Barbecue lights are the best for this because they're flexible and weather-resistant. You can even find battery-powered ones if you are short of outdoor electrical outlets. 2. Outdoor lighting for the dining area: Lighting is a must if you're planning on enjoying meals outdoors this spring and summer, especially if you are entertaining. You'll set the scene for relaxed dinners with friends and family that extend into the evening. For the outdoor dining table, soft lighting tends to work best. It creates a cozy, intimate atmosphere even for the most casual of patio furniture sets. Scatter candles across the table, or consider hanging a candelabra overhead. Just remember to use bobeches (drip catchers) with any suspended candles. You don't want to coat your table with wax! Lanterns also create a nice effect on an outdoor table. There are plenty of battery-operated lanterns out there as well if you don't want to bother with lighting a wick. 3. Outdoor lighting for the steps: Of course, not everyone has a stairway leading up to their outdoor oasis. If you are one of the lucky ones, show them off! Illuminating your steps adds a leading line to your deck. (That's a photography term, but it works the same way to enhance your landscape!) LED step lights are the way to go. They are incredibly energy-efficient, they often have automatic dusk-to-dawn sensors, and they are surprisingly easy to install. Not to mention you will likely prevent some serious injuries by adding light to your steps. 4. Outdoor lighting for the deck or balcony railings: Outlining your gazebo or railings with string lights or rope lights is a classic option. It's a great way to add some pizzazz to your deck before a party – and no one will blame you if you leave them up for the rest of the season. 5. Outdoor lighting for the patio surface: For more of a unique result, try using step lights to line the edges of your patio floor. It's an easy weekend project, and you'll be thrilled with the new look. *** Thanks, Emily! Be sure to visit the Pegasus Lighting blog for more ideas on lighting in general.

Устанавливать рельсы палубы: A Как-К направляющему выступу Posted: 30 Mar 2011 09:00 AM PDT Installation of railings for your deck can be a nice aesthetic touch, but more importantly railing provide safety from falls and other injury. In fact, many municipalities require that decking that is a certain height have railing in order to be within building codes. It would be wise to consult your city, township or county building code enforcement office to make sure you are abiding by the right codes. There are many prefabricated brackets that can be used to help join the rail pieces together. If using wood, a basic circular saw or miter saw will make cuts easily enough. If installing aluminum railing you will need to use a saber saw as the material is hard to cut through, and can bend easily. Just be wary of the sharp edges and shaving that can result after cutting aluminum. Protective eye wear is highly recommended for this material. Planning a deck railing installationThe most difficult aspect to installing deck railing is the planning phase. It is absolutely imperative that you measure the area that will be receiving the railing, then you measure it again. This will guarantee that you will have enough supplies going forward. The layout should include posts at the ends of the railing, and every 48 inches, at the base and top of stairs. For stairs that are longer than say five feet, plan on an additional post in the center. Supporting posts or spindle posts are placed approximately every four inches. You will need a cap for the top of the railing as well. You will also need to determine the height of the railing, which the recommended average is approximately 48 inches in height, however, this should be checked with your local building codes office. If installing aluminum railing, you can purchase these in prefabricated sections, eliminating the need for excessive measuring and cutting. For all railing installation, you can purchase brackets that will fasten the wood railing strips to the posts. This can make the project less aggravating. If you are considering wood over aluminum, or vice versa, or unsure about the types of brackets to use, you can find for free samples and supplies to help make your decision. Installing deck rails materials listBelow is a list of supplies that you will need to have ready prior to beginning your project:
After you have gathered all of the essential materials, you can begin your project. Set the main beams in place. It is important that these are fastened to the deck in a sturdy fashion as these will support the rest of the railing. Using galvanized deck screws will prevent corrosion and discoloration. Attach the railing in segments to the posts using fasting brackets. An example would be a flush T-bracket. For information on our Lang aluminum deck railings, you might want to take a look at this illustration of deck railings screw placement. Enjoy your new railings, and your new deck too!
