So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

How To Make Your Bathroom A Stylish Spa for Relaxation

By Janice Nickole

Did you know that the Greeks and Romans actually invented great bathroom design concepts starting from their "communal baths"? They also incorporated the relaxation techniques from the mineral salts they added that they believed had healing properties.

Well, we've incorporated the same concept of healing and medicinal properties in our bathroom designs today. Only the relaxation concept has changed from the communal bath to just one person, you, relaxing in a large tub with jets, soaking in something like lavender salts, that comfort and soothe our sore and tired muscles.

Peace and tranquility are the key elements if you want to achieve "bathroom bliss" in your bathroom design. This design theme should be carried through from start to finish incorporating everything that can offer us a type of "oasis" sanctuary to escape all the worries and cares we tend to carry on our shoulders.

Of course the ultimate bathroom design will have fragrant candles burning, while the flames dance to soft music playing in the background. Doesn't this sound wonderful, as you soak in hot, aromatic water mixed with lavender mineral salts?

This is the secret to achieve the ultimate "bathroom bliss" our health spas today know all to well. They've incorporated all these special relaxation techniques for maximum benefits which we enjoy thoroughly and help us release worries and tensions away.

Now you know the secret to achieve the very same design principle in your own bathrooms no matter how large or small.

First start with your overall design theme like Japanese or English garden. Consider soothing, cool colors for your color theme like blues and greens or warm colors like gold, reds and oranges.

Bathroom fixtures come in all sorts of colors, sizes and shapes so you'll need some help from your store representative or Interior Designer to help you choose the right one. Consider selections for your tubs, sinks, faucets, flooring and lighting. Just remember to stick with your design theme.

And last but not least, your accents will be the cherry on the cupcake like plush towels resting on a towel warmer, or perhaps the plush accent rug your feet slip into when you must break away from that most hot and relaxing soak. Oh well, there's always another chance to relax and unwind the next day.
