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

A Multitude Of Fireplace Screens To Choose From

By Jeff Bridges

If you have a fireplace, whether it is a working one or not, it could be beautified easily, and just as easily changed to get a different look with the different seasons. Thankfully, there is a multitude of fireplace screens to choose from. They range in different prices to suit everyone's budget.

A simple choice in the finish, or the materials that are used to build this product, can give your room a whole new look. For example, the choices include polished brass, antique or as, copper, glass, stainless steel, and chrome, to name but a few. Whether you are aiming to complement your country setting, contemporary or modern look, it can all be achieved with just the change of the fireplace screen.

They are also available in various sizes in order to accommodate the different size openings. There are numerous shapes to choose from as well such as square, rectangular, domed, etc. In addition to that, you can even opt for a fixed fireplace screen, which is built in to the opening. Of course with this option, you would be limited in changing it. With that said, if your desire is to produce different effects in different looks, that you would be better off the freestanding ones.

As for the screen, it could simply be tempered glass sheet to provide a more modern look. Fanned screens are also available that can provide a more contemporary look. The most popular style is the three paneled fireplace screens which allow proper coverage to the opening.

Whether you have a decorative non-functioning fireplace, gas fireplace or wood burning fireplace, dressing it up with the proper screen is key to having a beautiful focal point in any room. Even the screen itself can be decorated with more metal designs that make it much more interesting to the eye.

As you may know, the fireplace is often the focal point of that room. That means that the eye is always drawn to that area in that particular room. Therefore, using a beautiful screen can give you optimum results in decor by making it appealing.
