Three Great Items of Space Saving Furniture For A Dorm

You’re off to college. You have packed all your favorite clothes, your MP3 player, video games and, of course, your laptop. What else could you possibly need in a dorm room? Plenty! Hopefully your parents will help out with the essentials such as bedding, dishes and small appliances. If you’re going to add a few furnishings yourself, here are three great pieces of space saving furniture  no dorm should be without.   The first is almost too easy. You need a desk. I know you think desks are old-fashioned, but you’re in for a surprise. Today’s desks are not the same ones your parents used in college. They are designed to hold and function optimally with and for computers. That means your laptop and any peripherals will feel right at home. Plus, you can actually store your books and maybe even find a place to plug in your cell-phone charger with the built in power strips. Cool, huh?   The next piece is one people think comes with the room. The bedside table is not a guarantee. If you don’t have one or if your dorm expects you and your roommate to share, get one of your own. Just opt for a bedside cabinet...

Why To Choose Lockable Medicine Cabinets

Why To Choose Lockable Medicine Cabinets

It is not easy living in the world today. So much of our sense of security, even in the privacy of our own homes, has been infringed upon by a world that may seem a little crazy to most of us. While no home is totally safe from the criminal element, there are some basic things we can do to keep our houses less burglar-friendly. One of the simplest and smartest is employing the services of lockable medicine cabinets .   Most of us know that many of the thieves are breaking into homes and committing bold and dangerous home invasions in search of three things: cash, easily pawned items and drugs. Sure, we might not have any cocaine or heroin in our bathroom. Still, these thugs often use prescribed medications to get high. Sometimes they mix them with other drugs and alcohol to achieve that state. Locking them away won’t prevent a blatant home invader from taking your prescriptions, but it might stop the silent and sneaky burglar who is bent on getting in and out quickly and quietly. There is another urgent reason to protect what’s in your medicine cabinet. The sad fact is that small children often overdose on their parents,...

Fortunately, there are lots of designs that can provide you with the special features and fixtures you require and still offer you a good-looking bath that you will be proud to show off to family and friends. Any bathroom being used by a person with limited mobility should be equipped with the safety features that are required to enable them to use the toilet, the tub, the shower and the sink without risking injury and to get the job done. For some of us, remodeling our baths to accommodate our health issues requires little more than installing a few safety bars and an emergency pull cord that can signal for help. For others, the changes are more difficult and time consuming. If you can’t get into or out of a bathtub and refuse to resign yourself to showers only for the rest of your life, a walk-in tub can be useful. For those who want to brush their teeth at the sink, vanities that allow wheelchair access up to...

Bathroom Designs For Hotels And Rental Units

You run a nice clean hotel. Your rental condos are the best on the beach. You don’t want bad customer review of your property’s bathrooms  coming back to haunt your on-line bookings. Avoid this by investing money back into your rental and employing one of the stylish and hardworking bathroom designs  that are created especially for rentals and hotels. Unlike those found in a private home or apartment the bathrooms you are decorating are being utilized by dozens, even hundreds of guests each year. You need heavy duty that looks good, too. You need strong that is still comfortable and you need style that takes a beating and constant, repeated cleanings. In short, you need a quality rental unit bathroom plan and the fixtures to go with it. Unless you’re a boutique hotel or B&B, you don’t need fancy. You do need a tub/shower combo that is easy to clean. You also want a nice narrow toilet seat that won’t take up much room in the busy little area where it gets to squeeze in next to the bathtub. The sink needs a solid surface vanity top to hold it. That prevents spills and leaks. The plumbing fixtures have got to be...

Techno-Trends In Fixtures and Furnishings Dictate Bathroom Designs

“The less traditional, the better.” That is one way to describe the hottest trends in bathroom designs  coming into showrooms today. As a culture, we seem to revel in revolting against the tried and true and yearn to experiment with new shapes, styles and textures. Nowhere is this trend more evident than in the looks we see emerging for today’s hip-hot bathrooms. The standard bathroom fixtures have undergone some amazing transformations. With advanced technology allowing manufacturers to create bathtubs, shower stalls, sinks and more using materials we never dreamed of trying before, we see new breakthroughs in design every day. Stainless steel in the bathroom on the counter, in the trim of the shower’s stall and along the rim of its bottom and across the top of the toilet’s tank looks amazing. Countertops of manmade materials can provide you with an art glass look on which to place your toothbrush holder. New materials, new technologies and new thinking in the world of design have turned today’s bathroom designs into experiments in human/art interaction. The fixtures are not the only things that have been updated. Cabinets, shelving, towel rings and bars, even soap dishes are taking on new dimensions. There is nothing staid...

Two Popular Bathroom Designs You Can Create On Your Own

Many people are taking the time these days to re-think their bathroom’s décor. Until recently, the bathroom  was sparsely decorated. Today, however, the idea of the bathroom as more than just a place to shower and shave has designers and homeowners coming up with some pretty amazing bathroom designs. If you want to take on this task with a limited budget, I’ve got a couple just for you. furniture  The first is about as simple and Zen as possible. Wall colors should be soft brown, ecru or tan – very neutral. Fixtures can remain whatever color they are. Floor, if tiled, needs soft ecru or white rugs. Carpeted floors can be handled with a long, beige or ecru runner. Shower curtains, towels and other linens can echo soft earth hues. Empty the countertops and other surfaces, leaving lots of open space. Then, gather rocks and branches. Place them in earth toned bowls and pottery jars all around the room. Items you need on the counter should be stored inside wicker or rattan. Hang a bamboo wind chime from the curtain rod and your Zen-style bath plan is complete. See. Bathroom designs don’t have to be hard to put in place If you...

Bathroom Designs For The Guest Bath

Bathroom Designs For The Guest Bath

responsibility as a host or hostess seriously. We pull out the good china and shake out the finest linens. We make sure the house is clean and smelling like beeswax. The guest bath cannot be overlooked on either one of these occasions. Bathroom furniture  designs for guest bathrooms are going to differ a bit from those used by family. After all, company deserves to see our best side. In the guest bathroom, use colors that make it part of the bedroom  beyond. Instead of making it a pale echo, however, let it sing a design song of its own. Use the good fixtures, and then accessorize them with the most stylish towel and robe hooks, hoops and rods. The tub/shower enclosure should be decked out like one in a good spa. Include a small table beside the tub (I use a wooden stepstool with a lace doily) and arrange bottles of bath salts, bubble bath, shower gels and shampoos. You could put these in a wicker basket, and add some nice bath and hand soaps in designer wrappers. What the guest doesn’t use, insist they take home with them when they leave. It’s a great gesture of genuine hospitality that won’t...

Finding Inspirations For Great Bathroom Heaven Designs

If you have a couple ounces of creativity and want to change the look of one of your bathrooms , all you need is a design plan. Finding that plan requires inspiration. Your bathroom designs can be inspired by nature, by a painting, by a child’s toy or a bunch of balloons. Finding inspiration in simple things is a great way to start your redecorating project. Since we are redecorating, not remodeling, we’ll leave the primary bathroom fixtures in tact. We do want to clean the room thoroughly. Then, depending on the design you wish to implement, you start adding or taking things away. Still having furniture  trouble figure out how you can be inspired by a child’s toy and take that from idea to reality? It’s not hard. Suppose the toy you chose was a simple rag doll in a sailor’s suit. You get your colors from his red yarn hair, the flesh-tone cotton of his face and hands and the bright blue of his sailor’s suit. Paint the walls, choose the towels, and find the rugs that will echo those colors. Then splash them all over the room. Find a print with the doll in it or draw one of...
