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

Factors To Consider When Choosing Kitchen Blinds

By Alana Vistulla-Borges


One of the most neglected window treatments in many homes has to be kitchen blinds. While picking the perfect curtains or blinds for the living room or bed room can take many long hours of decision making, the lowly kitchen is treated as an afterthought. Last minute decisions are made about what to use as window dressing and few homeowners care to take a long time to pick the best kitchen blinds. Maybe they aren't as passionate about cooking as other things, and therefore don't intend to spend as much time in the kitchen.

But those who are engaged in cooking will necessarily have to spend a lot of time in it. The time and effort invested into installing the best appliances in your kitchen, and decorating it by theme, is well worth spending. Rugby fans sometimes have the entire room done up with rugby accessories. Similarly, tennis fans may design a tennis themed kitchen. Blinds in these kitchens will often garner more attention, and the end result is a good match with the rest of the house.

Doing up kitchens with old and rare sports or music memorabilia is an expensive proposition and not all people can spend that much money on their cooking areas. But, using a little time to research and buy good quality blinds that match the room's interiors and which can be maintained easily is possible for anyone.

If your kitchen is in an exposed area and you want to have some privacy then choose vertical blinds. If privacy is not an issue than horizontal blinds and even shades are an option.

Kitchen areas become dirty because of the oily fumes and grease. Kitchen blinds can get dirty easily and will need to be maintained carefully. Be sure to pick kitchen blinds that can be cleaned easily. Also select colors that don't show up dirt easily. Be sure that the blinds can be taken off and restored after cleaning.
