The opportunity to create a little girls bathroom for your young daughter(s) can be a very interesting and rewarding experience into the world of little girls bathroom décor and fixture selection.

Experience has taught me that the most important accessories in a little girls bathroom are “frilly” towel bars and light fixtures as well as a very nice artistically inspired faucet set. The little girls bathroom is more about décor and decorating than actual fixture placement although that does not mean for a moment that if you have the opportunity to maximize your floor space and fixture placement.

Your little girls bathroom might be decorated around a theme if you wanted to go that far or it might be more subtle with soft pretty little girls bathroom colors. Any color scheme that is a soft, feminine hue qualifies as long as it meets the approval of the little girl.

Which brings up another point; you want to always keep her involved in the decision making process. Selecting paint colors, wallpaper and trims can be an exciting time for her so make sure to keep her “in the loop”. It will make the little girls bathroom even more her own after she has hand a major role in its development.

One final note. Make certain that the entire bathroom remodeling project is well-documented with pictures as you go along. Whether it’s your little girl tearing old wallpaper off of the wall or Daddy underneath the new sink or Sis with paint all over her face, these memories recorded in all of their digital glory will be the smiles on your little girl’s face long after the little girls bathroom is gone.

Famous Chandeliers From Around The World

Elvis was so moved to bring a chandelier into his Graceland estate that he insisted on an impromptu late-night shopping spree at Memphis’ Belvedere Lighting in 1974. While Elvis may have left the building, the breathtaking Italian cut glass chandelier now resides in the dining room.

The impressive wrought iron chandelier that hangs above the Grand Staircase in the Vanderbilt family’s great Biltmore Estate requires 72 light bulbs.

The Winchester Mystery House in California, built by gun heiress Sarah Winchester to appease unhappy ghosts, contains an elegant, imported chandelier that originally contained 12 candles, but was refitted to hold the spirit-friendly number of 13.

The Blue Room, the White House’s reception room, boasts a chandelier 79 feet by 36 feet, with 19-foot 10-inch ceilings. It takes one person two entire days to clean the monstrous chandelier, but as big as it is, the lighting fixture must also be removed every year to accommodate an even bigger Christmas tree.

Outside of private residences, however, one must either go to church or gamble at the card tables to find the largest chandelier. While the title for biggest chandelier isn’t a clear winner, four of the world’s top casinos and a Spanish mosque currently vie for the bragging rights. However, reports say a British shopping center under reconstruction will feature the largest chandelier after remodeling is completed by the beginning of 2007.

Pat Fillman, the owner of Horns a Plenty, made the world’s largest antler chandelier. He displayed the chandelier in early 2005 wowing all that saw it. The chandelier is 10 feet in diameter, 12 feet tall, and is fixed with sixty-seven light sources. With a final weight of over 850 pounds, he estimates that it took the antlers of nearly 600 dear and elk to make the chandelier.

Perhaps the most famous chandelier of all belongs, not in a house, a casino or a church, but in the theatre. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s well-known chandelier crash scene from Phantom of the Opera strikes desperation in the hearts of lighting buffs everywhere.

Home Appliances

Home appliances are all of those appliances that are used in the home. It is a very broad term that encompasses everything from electric toothbrushes to washer/dryers. Home appliances can be large or small. They are basically classified as white good and brown goods. Brown goods are classified as household electrical entertainment appliances like CD and DVD players, televisions and camcorders. The term “brown” was applied because most of these appliances at one time were traditionally finished with wood.

Major household electrical appliances are called white goods and include air conditioners, dishwashers, stoves, refrigerators, washing machines, dryers, etc. White goods were, and still are in many cases, enameled white.

Any home appliance that is purchased today should be energy efficient in order to save money. Federal regulations have to be listed on any appliance purchased, so you can see what you are buying and how energy efficient it is. This is particularly true with furnaces, refrigerators, freezers, water heaters, washing machines, dishwashers, air conditioners and lamps. Another example is purchasing an appliance that uses water, like a washing machine or a dishwasher. Look for newer features like reduced water uses for different rinsing cycles. Another cost effective measure you can take when buying an air-conditioner is to make sure that it fits the size of your room. If you purchase one that is too big for the area that needs to be cooled, you’ll be wasting energy and money. The Department of Energy suggests that an air-conditioner’s size can be determined by multiplying your room’s square feet by 20.

If you are a night owl or an early bird, work with your own natural timing of energy to help you get the job of organizing everything done without to much trouble of running out of steam.

1. Pick up any clutter or garbage and dispose of properly.

2. Anything that you no longer use or want that is still in useable shape should be given away or donated to charity.

3. Next, move everything off the patio or porch and out of the way while you are organizing your patio and porch.

4. Sweep away all dirt and grime.

5. If your patio or porch can withstand water, take the garden hose and spray down all ceilings, walls, windows and floors.

6. Next use an out door broom for scrubbing any dirt or grime that was not washed away with plain water. You can add a small amount of soap to a bucket of water for cleaning.

7. Rinse the soap off with the water hose again, and take a break while the area dries.

8. On the other hand, if you are still eager to go, and have the hose in hand, wash out any outside garbage cans, spray off the sidewalks or wash out the barbeque grill. If you have a wall type barrier for placing things out of sight, put the garbage cans and grill out of sight.

9. If there are windows, wash those as well, and remember to clean and replace any window screens.

10. Once the area has dried, and you can always use a well-placed fan to help the drying process along much quicker. Begin choosing just what items you will place back on the patio or porch.

11. If you have large furniture, place those first, such as a tables or porch swings. Then place the other items in complimentary areas of the porch or patio.

12. To catch sand and dirt before it gets on the porch or patio, you can place a basket or bin at the step edge and ask everyone to take their shoes off before entering the area and tracking in dirt and grime.

13. A heavy outdoor rug can be placed outside the door, and on the inside place a lighter weight rug, this will also help cut down on a lot of dirt entering the house.

14. If you are limited in shelf space, you can use a plastic bookcase for outdoor storage on the porch and patio.

15. Hanging baskets along the inside ceiling of the area will add some much needed storage space, as well as keeping some things out of a child’s reach.

16. If you have special outdoor furniture that is made of wood, find out the proper way to clean and care for them as this will add years of life to a piece of good outdoor furniture.

17. Once you have your patio and porch clean and organized it really only take a little upkeep every now and then to keep it looking nice, so be sure not to forget to do some outdoor housekeeping while straightening up the inside. You will be glad that you did.
