Question: Ladies!! Why do you feel that the ENTIRE house should be decorated your way?
Here’s the deal. I have owned my house for 11 years.

In all that time I have never lived with a girl until recently. It is a decent sized house. 4 bedrooms,3 full bathrooms,2 living rooms and 2 dining rooms.

The girl I have been with for just over a year just moved in a few months ago. Until that time,my whole house was decorated as a Bar/pub/lounge. I put alot of my stuff into storage and consolidated down into just one dining room and one living room which are connected ( I took the smaller pair) for my style of decor.

I told her that she may decorate the larger living room and larger dining room, all 4 bedrooms,and all 3 bathrooms any way she wants.

Well she is not happy with that. She wants the whole house her way and calls my decor “stupid” Well what is stupid to her is important to me. I dont really like flowers and potpourri,but I know its important to her.

I am not budging on this and I am not asking if I am right or what should I do. I have the right to come home from a hard day at work and be happy in my surroundings.

What I want to know is for the ladies that are like her and agree with her. My question is:

Why does she feel that she has some right to the entire house to be decorated her way and nothing my way? And before anyone suggests that I should compromise,read my entire section above and you will see that I am already MORE than compromising.

Answer:

Answer by James H
Get her told then, be the man of the house
You like the way you want it, tell her, if she dissagrees…do it anyway
if she can take over the way you want your own house, take it back

Question: LADIES!!!! Why do some of you feel that the ENTIRE house should be decorated only your way?

Very few women would want to live with a Bar/pub/lounge decor. You have to decide which is more important to you – your decor or a long term companion

Just when you think you have one simple choice to make to outfit your new home, think again.Today’s showers are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, and can be outfitted with amazing features to provide the most luxurious shower imaginable.

This shower may be an independent bathroom fixture or a component of the large arrangement of a accessories provided with the bathtub.The two factors that restrict you choice are: your budget and the available space for the shower 

If space be constrained, you have to be content with just a stand-alone arrangement.  If you could make arrangements for some extra place and have the inclination to relax at the end of the day, you may very well have a tub and shower arrangement.For those new homes equipped with plush master suites and the ranch house plans with two master bedrooms that are becoming more common, a separate stand-alone shower is ideal because there is plenty of room for a soaking tub on its own. Showers come in prefabricated form or they can be tailor made to conform to the available space and your personal style.

If you have a standard stall in the form of a square or a circle, prefab will suit you best. Also, you can get portable bathtub stalls. On the other hand if you have a country house kind of a plan or are thinking on the lines of having one, you may need a custom built arrangement to fit specific dimensions, especially around the corners. No matter what style you are looking for, showers are available in a multitude of materials.

It is of utmost importance to choose a waterproof material that is long lasting. Also, if you are remodeling or choosing a new shower stall.Generally prefabricated units are made of synthetic marble, plastic laminate or fiberglass-reinforced acrylic. You may employ marble, granite, stone or ceramic tiles for making a shower stall of your choice and size.
Using these materials takes a step further in aesthetics and offers the most flexibility in size and shape. You may choose any of the materials as long as it jells with the rest of the infra-structure and allows you to have relaxed stress-free surroundings.

Recycling is a big deal these days and we are always being encouraged to do more. plastic containers and cardboard items can be recycled with relative ease as lots of people have separate bins for this stuff or can drop it off at a recycling centre in town. When it comes to recycling larger household pieces however, there is not so much support or resources. Things such as cupboards, wardrobes and tables often get taken to the tip never to be seen again. Right now people are not only watching what they spend more, but also concerning themselves with the state of the planet, so here are a few tips to aid home recycling.

Wooden Items. When people want a new piece of wooden furniture like cupboards or chairs they, usually just throw out the old piece with really thinking about how it can be used. You would be amazed how quickly you can make a quirky coffee table by screwing a couple of kitchen units together and taking the knobs off the doors. If you leave the hinges and doors intact, you can keep the coffee table hollow and use it as storage space as well. You can also use wood to make lots of little things such as door stops and chopping boards and even wine racks

Glassware. Believe it or not recycling and old piece of glassware does not require you to melt it into something new.Glasses can be used to pot house plants, store knick-knacks in, and even create feature walls with if you’ve got the time to make it. Glass is a very versatile material to use but people tend to just get unnecessarily scared trying to recycle it.

Furniture.  This is one of the hardest things to recycle and I’m not saying that you will be able to make tableware out of your old sofa, but sometimes there is scope to get a few more years out of items you thought were at the end of their life. If items have exhausted their use in the home, they can often be put to good use in the garden.By removing the cushioning and coating the furniture in some protective varnish, most chairs and tables will last outdoors for years. You might also be able to use old carpet to kneel on whilst tending to garden or to line the floor of the shed with.

If you are looking to replace the windows in your home, be sure to check out vinyl replacement windows. These windows are not only extremely durable but very energy efficient as well. When fitted properly they can provide you with many years of use as well as improve the appearance of your home. As we know from the past, many families changed to vinyl siding on their homes which proved to be quite an asset to the home owner as far as maintenance was concerned. The same is now true of the vinyl windows which are virtually maintenance-free. One of the great aspects of vinyl replacement windows is that they resist corrosion. The initial out-of pocket cost is low enough that in a relatively short time the vinyl replacement windows will pay for themselves. There are many styles to choose from as well.

There is usually some information displayed on the vinyl replacement windows explaining the NRFC values. The will include the U-Factor, solar heat gain, visible transmittance, and leakage and on some displays, the condensation resistance. Also displayed with be the Energy Star standard. As you know, this is a program that encourages use of energy efficient products. This is something to take note as it will show you the minimum requirements for your particular area of the country as it does differ from region to region.

Vinyl replacement windows have been found to be a good investment which will not set you back financially, but in fact, pay for itself in the long run. They come in various styles and sizes including patio doors. The benefits of vinyl replacement windows offer more than just energy efficiency, but sun protection , due to the dual pane windows, for your family and furniture . You also get security because of the solid locking mechanisms on the windows and of special note is the noise reduction factor these windows offer.

Replacing your old windows with vinyl replacement windows will also add significantly to the value of your home because of the energy efficiency it offers, as well as adding to beauty of your home. Make your home not only energy efficient but nice to look at as well.

Your own new ideal kitchen can be the main focus of domestic family bliss and a careful harmonisation of flooring (either real wood or laminate), cabinets and kitchen worktops all gel to make that unique combination that puts your personal touch on your kitchens design.

Lets focus on your kitchen cabinets for example, traditionally these have been quite bland and are nothing more than a box with a door and perhaps a few internal baskets as well, but in the modern age where we tend to have all sorts of kitchen appliances in all shapes and sizes, consumer demand has cried out for more functionality and better use of the cabinet space, which is essential if you only have a small kitchen area to work with.

Armed with the demand for more inventive storage solutions the challenge of creating different door designs has fallen firmly at the feet of the kitchen furniture designers, who have in turn invested in innovative 3D design programs so they can really make maximum use of any space available and work through any number of combinations and variants of cabinet design.

The new breed of kitchen cabinets has certainly been well received by consumers especially those with smaller homes or small apartments, as they seem to be able to store far more than the older traditional styles which lets face it, wasted a huge amount of spare capacity.

Some of the more popular types of kitchen cabinets and doors now include the following for example:

Doors with pre fitted baskets:

This type of door is very useful for deeper cupboards as you have much easier access to the baskets when the door is opened without having to stoop down.

See-through kitchen cabinet doors:

These are ideal storage areas for your favourite dinner service or perhaps unusual kitchen gadgets where they can turn a dead area of a kitchen into a visually appealing talking point.

There are of course many others, but then that is the fun of designing your own kitchen

Whatever particular function the kitchen cabinet doors have for the owners of the kitchen should be well defined by the particular role that they are supposed to perform in the said area of the home. To assure that the kitchen cabinet doors would be able to perform well for the family’s needs for all time, for a long time, it is essential that the use of sturdy cabinet door hinges should be considered.

On a slightly different note the same applies to your choice of kitchen work surfaces and Kitchen work tops, gloss kitchen worktops are more suited to casual or low level use as tiny scratches can dull the effect, whereas stronger laminate kitchen worktops would be suitable for harder wear or even one from a composite stone kitchen worktops range.

As the kitchen is a natural hub for family activity its not unusual for the kids to pile in and use the breakfast bar or work surface for some form of activity which could simply range from colouring and drawing to homework perhaps. so with all the extra space you have created with your choice of functional kitchen cabinets it may be a nice touch to give them some kitchen storage space of their own.

Remember, it is well worth spending some time exploring the cabinet designs available as this can give you some excellent ideas.
