Make your bathroom appear larger!

I have a very efficient bathroom. It is small, very small. I do not like large bathrooms at all. It just gives me the free space to pack with clutter. But with a small bathroom it seems odd to jam an entire fiberglass unit in it. It takes up too much space. We have been thinking about going with a simple shower unit and no tub but that will only free up 3 sq ft of floor space for the most part. But here is a solution that makes you feel that there is more space. plus it is different and cute! There are so many other ideas on this website too! it is a must see for the bathroom and other plumbing ideas.

Window treatment ideas.

My friend April just gave me a juicy lead on some cute window treatment solutions. She has issues with a specific window in her house due to size and how it is hard to fit curtains for, at least with store bought..

She pointed me to diyideas.com

There is a small section on window treatments which also include one that is cheap and easy !!!

 

who would have thought of this? i think this is great because it saves you 5-50$ in a unique style curtain rod

Hi, My name is Krista, and I am a clutterer.

"HI krista"

"I have been a clutterer since I was a teenager.  It started with a chest that i kept with old notes and memorabilia from proms, boyfriends, and other events, then it moved onto crafting. I could not throw anything away because it could be made into something else or worked into a project. now I can't stop and it has taken over my basement and garage. I need help"

Bring the apron back!

I am mostly homemaker for profession. I get a little lazy here and there on the cleaning days just wearing a t shirt and jeans, but the addition of the old fashion frilly apron would help me feel and look a little prettier around the house while protecting my favorite white t's from random cooking and cleaning messes. This website has LOTS of different aprons. everyone will find something they like.
