Backless Bar Stools, For Use In Theme Decors

Lots of people are decorating their bars around themes. When furnishing a “theme” bar, you need be constantly on the look out for items that fit into your design scheme. Backless bar stools are great for some of the most popular bar theme trends. These old-fashioned stools can transition from an old-Western saloon to a posh 1940s club look. Why? Because, these bars were the same kinds they used in those sorts of places back for real.   In the old West, the streets were wild and the bar fights were legendary. The bar stools were wooden, four legged with a rounded seat and a few slats between the legs for support. In most old western films we generally get our best view of them when they were being used by a drunk bar patron to hit another one over the head. Still, if you want authentic and old West, these are the stools to add that look. Fortunately for your customers, they at least now pad the seats. For a nineteen-forties style bar, one were they might have shot a scene from Casablanca, you would still use backless bar stools. These bar stools , however, wouldn’t be wooden or four-legged. They would never...

Wardrobe Designs Have Undergone Some Changes

You have to have attained a “certain age” to remember when wardrobes  were the only tasteful solution for storing clothing. If you are at least as old as me, you remember them as where your dresses, slacks and shirts hung, and the sweet smell of cedar used to keep the moths at bay. Like most things in the world, wardrobe designs have undergone quite a few changes since then. Today’s modern wardrobe can still hold clothes, or it can hold your television with DVD and other accessories. It could hold your “special clothes” like a wedding dress or tux, or it could hold your desktop computer and all of its accessories. There are wardrobes for holding, of all things, jewelry. Of course, most of us probably don’t have enough of the sparkly stuff to fill one of those. While most of them are still done in wood, you won’t find very many with the fine hand carving and intricate workmanship of their Victorian heyday. What they do have, however, might more than make up for anything they lack. Today’s wardrobe designs feature things we didn’t dream about having in our old-fashioned ones. Power outlets with built-in surge suppression can be part of...

Modern Wardrobes For Small Bedrooms

Looking for an old-fashioned way to create an up-to-date look in your home’s décor? No. This is not a trick question. The item we are discussing is old-fashioned, at least on the outside. On the inside, however, it is totally twenty-first century! Modern Wardrobes can have all the elegance and grace of those cherished heirlooms of yesteryear and yet, secreted inside, they hold things that no one dreamed of a hundred years ago. Not all of today’s wardrobes look old-fashioned, of course. Some of them are quite modern on the outside, too. Still, the big change in these old-time staples of clothes storage isn’t on the exterior. Rather it’s what they’ve done to inside that makes them fit today’s lifestyles. While we used to have as single horizontal rod for handing longer items, and if lucky, a couple of side hooks for shorter items, these new-fangled armoires offer a desk with spaces to hold computers and their peripherals. They can have table for crafting or work space. Some house televisions and home theatre equipment inside. Even the ones that might actually be used for storing clothes have cedar-lined drawers and compartments with linen pull out baskets plus an array of other...

Designer Wall Lights Make A Powerful Impact

You like the better things in life. Your car, your house, your clothes, even the kind of dog you walk all make statements. You want the best in all of your home’s fixtures and furnishings , too. So, when you decide to upgrade your interior lighting plan, you’ll be in the market for designer wall lights  to provide dramatic lighting power and make an impact with their bold style.

No one knows better than you do which kinds of lights will create the effect that not only suits the room, but also reflects your particular sense of style.

The Pedestal Side Table Makes A Good Neighbor

The Pedestal Side Table Makes A Good Neighbor

A side table can sit by the “side” of a bed, a couch, a chair or, I suppose, even the fridge. When you are using a table next to another piece of furniture, it needs to be a good neighbor. Often, I find that tables situated on four legs tend to make the space next to a fine sofa or an elegant chair look cluttered and full. A good pedestal side table , however, sits gracefully upon a single elegant column and can prove to be quite a good neighbor indeed.   The idea of putting tables on a pedestal is ancient. Some of my favorites are from the Greek Revival School of furniture . Today, modern designers are taking up the tune of this old song and creating sweet new melodies. With today’s modern materials and artistic focus, some of the types of pedestal side table are bound to become instant classics.   The pedestal and the tabletop, in this sort of table, don’t have to be of the same material. They do, however, need to “marry well”. Some of the modern tables have metal columns supporting faux marble tops or metal tabletops that enclose a sheet of thick glass. Old school pedestal tables are...

Tips For Decorating Art Studio Furniture, Gets Creative

The artists used to starve in sparsely furnished, drafty garrets (attics), or so we are taught in art history. Today’s artist, thank goodness, has better sense. While they may think with the right side of their brains most of the time, these creative geniuses aren’t so wrapped up in their work that they fail to appreciate the need for some basic comforts. Instead of damp, dowdy garrets, many of the artists I know live in fashionable lofts or townhouses filled with trendy, upscale art studio furniture  that makes living and/or working in their studio, quite stylish and comfortable. From easels to paint palettes to pottery wheels, some of the basics haven’t changed. Other more modern things have simply joined the ranks of the “basics” of the artist’s trade. Those could include but aren’t limited to: the computer, the scanner, the printer, a projection screen and a few dozen other technical marvels. Housing these basics is what makes furnishing an artist’s home or studio different from decorating a regular person’s house. The sorts of furnishings used to fill an artist’s studio today can be as simple as a good drawing/drafting table with a comfortable chair and a lamp, to a complex set of...

Still its great to know that there are kitchen remodel ideas that add style and save dollars. You might not be ready to demolish your old kitchen and start from scratch, so let’s suppose you’re just doing a remodeling that is decorative but also involves some money-saving initiatives.

Studio Apartment Furniture, Makes More Space Than It Takes Up

Furnishing  those little spaces which enterprising realtors term “studio apartments” requires creativity as well as a bit of interior design prestidigitation. Abracadabra! A wave of the decorative wand and you are able to live comfortably in less space than a one-car garage. Fortunately, good studio apartment furniture can provide all of the magical ingredients you require to pull off the transformation.   Other than the toilet, no piece of furniture in a studio apartment is allowed to have a just one single purpose. I don’t know if this is written anywhere as a rule, but it is certainly a truth that any person who has ever lived in a studio will vouch for. In fact, if you’re creative enough, then you can probably find a few additional uses for the toilet, too. Hey, don’t discount the back of the tank as a makeshift bookshelf. Better yet, buy one of those over-the-toilet style storage racks. It can hold towels, soaps and shampoos and you’ll still have the back of the tank for your budding library. Other great space-saving pieces of studio apartment furniture  abound. A list of these might include foldout sofas or futons that are both bed and couch. Next you might find...
