What about fire pit smoke?

 While a wood-burning fire pit can be the best place for relaxing and having great conversations with family and friends, there is the problem of smoke. There always seems to be one side of the fire pit that blows smoke into your face. So instead of having a relaxing night outside, the smoke can ruin your night. You know the scenario, the wood in the firepit starts giving off a lot of smoke in one direction and then you have to move your chair to another side.

 A fire pit should not be a source of excess smoke that leaves your eyes burning. The best way to avoid any smoke from a fire pit is to buy a fire pit that uses propane. Of course, propane fire pits can be more expensive than wood-burning fire pits. So before you purchase your fire pit and the best type of wood to burn in a fire pit, you need to understand what causes excess smoke from fire pits. This article explains the causes of fire pit smoke and gives the best tips to enjoy your fire pit without smoke in your face.

Creating Memories From Balloon Fiesta With Canvas Prints + a Free Canvas Print Offer

The Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta is a yearly event with over 500 hot air balloons. It is an event that will leave you speechless and some awesome photos.


 The Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta is a yearly event that my family loves to attend. The excitement of seeing over 500 hot air balloons floating in the sky is truly amazing. There is just something special about these colorful hot air balloons. It is an event that has people from all over the world attending. The balloons create an awesome backdrop for the most amazing photos. Every year I leave the event with hundreds of spectacular photos on my phone. 

 This year, my photos of the hot air balloons were of amazing quality. On the days that I attended the Balloon Fiesta, the skies were clear and the sun was giving plenty of sunshine. So I was able to use my camera to take some photos that were pretty awesome. As I was looking through my photos from my camera, I just knew that I had to make some canvas prints of the hot air balloon pictures. That way I could save my memories of that event. 


Photo Canvas Prints turn ordinary photos into works of art

Two years ago, my husband and I decided to replace the carpet in our living room with ceramic tile. Our home carpet-to-tile renovation project gave us the perfect opportunity to update the look of our living room. So my husband painted the walls and we bought new furniture. At the time, we just hung up the pictures that were already in the living room as they matched the new floors. While I eventually wanted to replace the pictures on the wall, I wasn't sure what I wanted in terms of the type of artwork that I wanted to be displayed on my walls.


 Then as I was looking through all the photos that I took at the Balloon Fiesta, I knew that they would be perfect for my living room walls. Since I loved looking at the hot air balloons, I that they would be perfect to display on the walls. So I decided to turn my photo memories into canvas prints that I could hang on my walls. The canvas prints would turn my photos into works of art that would give my living room decor the look it needed.

When my canvas prints arrive at my home, I was amazed at the professional quality of the photos. The canvas prints gave my living room a special touch. I just love how the canvas print display looks on my wall. Every time I look at the prints, it takes me back to the Balloon Fiesta with fond memories.

Make Your Apartment Yours With Customized Vinyl Decal

This is a sponsored post with Custom Vinyl Graphics and Dealspotr.


 My daughter and her husband along with my new grandbaby just moved here the other day. I am so glad that my son-in-law was able to convince his employer to let him work from home and move back to Albuquerque. I can now see that cute grandbaby more often. Their new apartment is about ten miles from my home and this grandma is so happy. My husband and I helped them move into their apartment the other day and it brought back memories of my first apartment when we moved here over 20 years ago. The apartment complex that my daughter moved into is the same one my husband and I rented at when we moved to Albuquerque. It also reminded me how boring the walls of an apartment are. Plain white walls just crying out to be decorated. The problem with apartments is not being able to hang things on the walls. Sure, some places allow you to hang pictures on the walls but then you are afraid to make a hole in the wall as you might not get that deposit back if you don't repair the nail holes correctly.

Forget nail holes in the wall

  My daughter and her husband will only be renting for a short time as they want to buy a house so hanging pictures on the walls is more work than they want to do. So I suggested Customized Wall Decals for their plain boring white walls. I love that you can upload a design of your choice to design the wall decal how you want it. These decals are affordable and so easy to apply. These awesome decals can be applied to smooth or textured walls. They can also be made in many different sizes up to 96"X 50". The designs are endless and where you hang them are up to you.

Perfect for the new nursery

An adorably customized vinyl decal with butterflies on it will match the baby's bedding set. When my daughter and husband get their new house the wall decal is Removeable & Reusable

Make the place yours

   Living in an apartment or dorm can be tough as there are so many rules from the landlord about decorating. With the Vinyl decals, you can make the place feel like your home without having to worry about damaging walls or having to repaint when you move out. The matte finish looks like you painted the design on the wall. The decals are easy to move or reposition without any damage to the walls. No more boring white walls when you have to rent.

How to Make Kitchen Walls Livelier Than Ever Before?

 Is the kitchen your favorite room?


 The first place where you set eyes on when you enter a house or a room is the walls. The walls are not only the support system of the building as such but the life of the home as well. This holds true for each and every room of the house whether it is the living room, dining room, bedroom, bathroom, or the kitchen.

 The kitchen is often left out due to various reasons. It is the domain of the homemaker, yet she has to decorate it only with the pots and pans she uses to give you delicious and nourishing meals. You can make it a special place for her and show your gratitude by decorating the kitchen as well. Make the kitchen wall lively and energetic by using some of the tips given below.

1. Wall Hangings
 Go in for wall hangings which are colorful and pretty. Just one or two will also suffice as most kitchens will have lots of storage cabinets using up the walls. Hang a favorite photo frame with a happy family and other good memories. The walls automatically come alive. You could also hang a butterfly, a bird, a duckling, a puppy, a ship or any other picture of your choice. Create a contemporary look with wall art like 3d bamboo wall panels, 3d wall art designs, or 3d modular wall panels. 

2. Lighting
 Lights always add to the look of the place. A dark and dingy kitchen is no good for cooking food and eating to live. Fix some pretty lights in the kitchen. Put them behind decorative ceiling panels. You could even just fix led wall panels.  Whatever you choose, the kitchen walls will bring to life the dull and boring kitchen walls. Fix some lights on the back walls of the open shelves as well. This too brightens up the room.

3. Drapes and Tapestry
 Every kitchen must have a window and of course, a door leading to it. You can brighten up the walls by hanging pretty and colorful drapes or blinds on the windows. The drapes will brighten up the walls around them. Use nice floral, dotted, striped, or other bold patterns for the drapes. Similarly, hang pretty curtains on the door. Take care to tie up the drapes as you don’t want fire accidents happening in the kitchen. Take care of the materials too. Nylon and other artificial materials are a strict no-no for the kitchen. Use cotton or linen.

4. Colors
 Life is dull and gray without colors in it. And so is your kitchen. Bring in color to the kitchen through towels, window sills, knobs, handles, and kitchen storage cabinets.  Further, of course, go in for wall panels in numerous hues and patterns like weaves, pops, perforated, warps, and weathered looks.

You can choose various colors according to the results or changes that you want in your life. Shades of
blues will reduce stress and make you happier
greens will give you balance and stability
yellows will bring in energy and brightness
light blues, whites, and greens will give spaciousness to the kitchen

5. Themes
 If you have space and the budget, go in for a theme look for your kitchen.  Choose whether you want your kitchen to look at High Tech or Urban; like a farmhouse or a Mediterranean home. There are panels to give you every look or theme that you want. Brighten up the kitchen walls with these panels.

 Add geometric finish by simply adding a border to the cabinets, shelves, and corners. These go well in contrast to the walls and add life to them.

6. Wall Finishes
 Paints and emulsions are harmful to the kitchen and should be avoided as much as possible. Wallpapers are also a bit dangerous. Try using the versatile wall panels like wainscoting panels, shell mosaic wall tiles or 3d tiles for kitchen. These suit all budgets and are very easy to maintain. Just touch them up once in a while. There is no need for painting them with expensive paints and emulsions.


7. Other hanging Items
 Add brightness and life to the kitchen with hanging baskets in various colors and useful for storage as well. You could have a hangar for hanging your pots, pans, and ladles as well. Fix some bright hooks on the walls and hang a bright towel or ladles from them. Pull out odd pieces of pottery and crockery whose sets have broken. Hang these cups, mugs, glasses, vases or plates on the walls for that pretty look. Use wall magnets to hang baskets, napkins, ladles, and small pots and pans.

8. Nature
  Bring in some nature into the kitchen. Hang a few pretty flowers or vines. Place a pot with some plants.

9. Storage Spaces
 Use the walls of the kitchen to the best of their utility. Keep them looking pretty too. How do you do that? Well, you could have storage shelves or cabinets either from wall to ceiling or those with a gap for a kitchen top counter too. In any case, have a combination of open and closed shelves. This breaks the monotony of the room and also gives you the option to place some colorful decorative items on the shelves. You can display your pottery and bring in some color.

10. Collages
 Make a focal point on any wall of the kitchen. Paint a mural on it or create a beautiful collage of photos, flowers, wall panels, curios, pottery etc. Make this stand out in the room and see how alive you and your kitchen will feel.

 A lively kitchen will lift up the mood and morale of the homemaker who spends a large part of the day in it. She sweats and toils for you. But you can put in simple, yet effective efforts and ideas to liven up this room.

Make Your Hospital Cafeteria Space Livelier for Everyone - A Guide

 Hospitals often tend to bring out feelings of depression and sorrow among the visiting people.


  After spending four days at the hospital last month while my daughter was in a long labor and then giving birth to her first baby, I agree that hospitals could use a livelier cafeteria space. I was there for a joyous occasion but others may be there for sorrow so having uplifting spaces to relax in are so needed. I would love these spaces in my own house.

 Hospitals often tend to bring out feelings of depression and sorrow among the visiting people. The simple reason for the development of such feelings is the fact that people go to hospitals to visit their suffering, wounded and injured relatives, who are in these establishments for treatment. The only feelings of happiness to be gained from such establishments can be gained when they see a relative or loved one recovering from the illness.



Interior décor can improve moods

 It is important for hospitals to invest in high-end interior design décor that helps in the uplifting of moods among the patients as well as their visiting relatives and friends. The décor of a hospital has effects quite similar to those of homes and set the moods and mental conditions of all the people who visit and stay here. A bright ambiance and setting will help to improve the moods of the patients and visitors, and a dull décor will create the opposing effects. 
Hence, it is important for hospitals to utilize proper and attractive architectural wall panels all around the establishment to create the perfect ambiance.


The Cafeteria can be the ideal spot for visitors to interact

 The cafeteria of a hospital is not just a place for the patients, their visitors and the medical staff of the hospital to get their food items and refreshments. It is also a place where people can socialize and spend some time together without disturbing the other patients. After all, if people cluster by the side of their ailing relatives in the ward, they might as well be disturbing the other patients in the ward.
It would be better if they can meet other visitors and join them for some refreshments in the cafeteria. This will not only help them to get some refreshments in a hygienic area of the hospital but also ensure that they can interact with others without causing hindrance to others.

Importance of making the cafeteria livelier

 With a large number of people visiting the hospital cafeteria, it is important for you to make your hospital cafeteria livelier for many reasons. Some of these reasons have been discussed here.

·  Uplifting the mood of all visitors

 As discussed earlier, visitors and patients in a hospital tend to suffer from deteriorating moods and feelings of suffering and sorrow. Using 3D decorative wall panels in the area can create positive visual effects and help to cheer the people up. This will also help the people to avoid imparting any sorrowful and depressing feeling to the patients, which can help the efforts of the doctors.
Such décor can also help the doctors and medical staff of the establishment. They have to spend a majority of their working time among people who are suffering from critical conditions. This can often cause a serious blow to their mental conditions, causing them to suffer deteriorating moods. A bright interior décor with decorative wall panels can help them to maintain focus and a lively mood that will help them to treat the patients effectively.


 Acoustic wall paneling to reduce noise levels

 Hospitals tend to advise people to maintain a certain level of noise to avoid disturbing patients. This can often be disturbing to people visiting the place as they are not able to communicate freely. However, using acoustic wall panels in the cafeteria will allow the people to converse more freely. This is because these wall panels can prevent the flow of unnecessary noise from one place to another. It will also allow the patients to rest in peace as they do not have to suffer from unwanted noise from other areas of the hospitals.

·   Improvement in the quality of the food

 Besides all the décor and show, the primary objective of the hospital cafeteria is to serve the people in the establishment with food and refreshments. Hence, it is important for the hospital to ensure that upheld a high standard in regards to the quality as well as the taste of the food served in the area. While packaged and prepared food items can be great to serve the guests and customers in the hospital cafeteria, the best thing to do with regards to the food items would be to serve Farm-to-Table foods.

 This will not only ensure that the taste of the foods being served is of the best possible kind, but will also mean that the customers are served with fresh and good-quality refreshments. This will also make sure that the people consuming the food do not have to suffer from any health conditions arising from the poor quality of the food. The quality and taste of such refreshments will help to make the space livelier and more cheerful for all people.

·         Maintaining health and hygiene of the place

  A hospital often serves as a pool for germs and diseases due to the accumulation of so many ailing patients in one place. Hence, it is important to maintain maximum hygiene in every corner of the establishment to prevent visiting people from catching some of the conditions. The same applies to the hospital cafeteria as well. Hospital staff must ensure that the interior wall paneling, as well as every inch of the floor,  is cleaned at regular intervals to ensure that they are free from germs and bacteria.

  The wall panels must be cleaned with anti-bacterial agents as they often come in contact with people. The standard of hygiene in the cafeteria will also ensure that the place is livelier for everybody visiting the hospital at all intervals. After all, there is absolutely no point in using 3D wall panels to make the cafeteria look attractive if you cannot uphold the hygiene of the place.
Hospitals do not have to be dull and depressing if you can work on the décor to create a cheerful environment. All you need is a few innovative ideas and some exquisite decoration materials. With the proper tools at hand, you can surely transform the place to create a lively environment for the patients, hospital staff and all people visiting the establishment.



The Benefits Of A Bidet

                                            Have you ever tried a bidet?

This page may contain affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases 

  For most people, the thought of using a bidet sounds weird and gross. A bidet experience is not something that people want to talk about as it can be one of those taboo conversations. Well, I am going to change your thinking about bidets and leave you wanting one. I have always been curious about how a bidet works but have never had the opportunity to try one. I would have included a bidet in my recent master bathroom remodel but hubby said no and there just was not the space for one. Installing a bidet would have also meant paying a plumber big bucks to add the necessary pipes. So my hope for a bidet was removed from my mind. That hope recently came true when I discovered a bidet system that I could install on my existing toilet. I just knew that I had to try this bidet as I wanted a pampered tushie. I also liked the idea of saving money on toilet paper.


                                    I received a bidet to facilitate this post.

  My wonderful bidet arrived and I could not wait to use it! My kids were curious about what a bidet was. Once they found out they thought it was really weird. I took the unit out of the box and read the instructions. As I was reading the instructions, my husband rolled his eyes at me and said: "that is not going into our bathroom!" I quickly told my husband that my new bidet was going on my princess potty and reminded him of how he would not let me use the potty light that I had purchased several months ago. I call the toilet in my master bathroom a princess potty because I am the only girl in a house of four boys and they are not allowed to use it. I do reluctantly let my husband use my princess potty as for the fact we share the same bedroom.



15 MINUTES IS ALL IT TAKES TO A SPOTLESS BOTTOM 
– ALL DAY, EVERY DAY 
Superior Bidets attach to any standard toilet without a need for a plumber or electrical. 
Your bidet comes with everything you need to turn your bathroom into the new favorite room in the house.



  I was glad that the instructions showed me that it would be easy to install the bidet to my toilet. My nine-year-old son was excited to help me install it. I am glad that the boy likes to work with tools. My son grabbed a wench and a screwdriver and we set off to my bathroom to install my new bidet. My son helped me take off the toilet seat from the potty. I was able to disconnect and reconnect the hoses on the toilet. I was happy that my son and I were able to do the install ourselves as I knew my husband would not help. It was super easy to install the bidet and it took us only 15 minutes. Once the bidet was on the toilet, I had to test it out to see if it was working. Since my son was in the room, I tested it out without my tushie on the seat as I was not going to drop my drawers in front of him. So I turn one of the dials on the bidet and water shot across the room. My son and I started laughing hysterically. We were so loud that my husband and the teen came upstairs to see what the commotion was. My younger son showed them the water on the wall. Then my teen just had to know how the bidet works. So this time I placed a towel in front of the potty and demonstrate the bidet. My teen then asked: "so this thing shoots water up your but?" I said, "yes" and he replied, "that is so weird!"


  I could not wait to try my new bidet out. So I kick everyone out of my bathroom so I could sit on my princess potty. I really did not know what to expect. So I dropped my drawers and sat down on the potty. I turned the cold water dial on and water sprayed on my tushie. I was amazed that it did not hurt and the water was not cold. The water made my bottom feel so clean and refreshed. The best part was that I did not need to use any toilet paper or wipes on my bottom!  My unit did come with a warm water dial but I choose not to connect that as it would have meant drilling hole in a wall. If the water gets cold in the winter then I may connect the warm water to my bidet.

When I was done trying out my new bidet, I told my husband about how it felt on my bottom. I also told him that the water was not cold. Later that evening, my husband went upstairs to use the bathroom. I did not ask him if he tried the bidet but I think he did as he was up there for a while. I am so glad that I installed a bidet on my princess potty as it does a wonderful job of cleaning my tushie. My tushie loves being pampered. I also love not having to use toilet paper to clean my tushie as all that does is smear the poo.


POOPING JUST GOT A WHOLE LOT BETTER 
A Superior Bidet is a high-tech device that easily attaches to your toilet and uses water to help transform your toilet hygiene forever. Use it once and you’ll feel cleaner than you’ve ever felt.

Would you be brave enough to try a bidet?





I leave you with this funny video about bidets.



Decorating With Floating Flowers

These floating flowers are so pretty and have so many uses!

Sponsored post: I received a bag of floating flowers to facilitate this post.

  I love decorating with flowers. I do like fresh flowers as they smell so good but they don't last long once picked. I also do not have a green thumb. It is quite black, I have even killed a cactus. So I love decorating inside and outside with silk and foam flowers. I recently found these gorgeous 
Pink Floating Flowers and I knew they would look wonderful in my backyard fountain. I just love how they float and look so real. They look like pretty lily pads. I even added a stone frog to my fountain!



These Floating Flowers are also great for weddings and parties. These flowers come in many different colors too. You can place some of the flowers in a glass bowl as they float, You can also add lights or color glass stones for a special touch. For a beach party theme, you could add seashells for that special touch.


 For a special touch at a wedding or party, place a single flower on the plate. They make the table look so pretty. The flowers are also be used to make name tags next to the plates. These flowers are made from foam are durable so they can be reused again. They also are made to withstand water so the rain will not harm them when used outside.





The pink flowers also look great on a decorative plate. These floating flowers can also be used in craft projects and so much more. They would look great in an aquarium. They come eight to a package and come in other colors like purple, white, orange and coral.


  How would you decorate with these pretty Pink Floating Flowers?


Before And After Pictures Of My Bathroom Renovation

My bathroom renovation is finally complete.


  It has been a long six months since my husband and I embarked on our journey to renovate our master bathroom. It all started with me planning to go out of town for four days and husband left home to watch the boys. My husband had nothing planned for those four days, so on a whim, I asked him if he would like to renovate the bathroom. We had been talking about doing this for several years but life kept getting in the way. My husband agreed that my idea was a great thing. So we went to a tile store to get started. The lady at the store convinced us to expand the shower and eliminate the bathtub. We loved the idea of a bigger shower as ours was too small. So we picked out the tile for the floor and shower. I then went out of town and left the boys in charge of demolishing the bathroom. Well during the demolishing, my husband discovered problems that changed our plans which led to delays. Those delays allowed me to do a lot of "window" shopping online to choose items that I wanted in my bathrooms. I also had a couple more trips to get inspired by hotel bathrooms. Hotel bathrooms have always inspired me to redo my bathroom, maybe because they are clean and clutter-free. I think having four boys has something to do with my messy bathroom and yes that is football by my old toilet. The only boy allowed in my new bathroom will be my husband and he better keep it clean.



  So the above photos are how my bathroom looked and the rest are the new fancy bathroom. My new bathroom just looks awesome and I feel so happy when I am in there. It looks so much better than the bathrooms at my past hotel stay. I might just have to stay at fancier hotels. I just love all the space I have in the new vanity and shelf to keep all my items organized. The shower is huge and I may just invite hubby to take a shower with me. The only thing that would make this bathroom more perfect would be a jacuzzi. We did think of that but in the end, we knew we would enjoy a bigger shower. I am glad we had the money to make the bathroom how we wanted as it turned out wonderful. So here are the photos of our new bathroom!


I just love the height of my new vanity and all the storage that it has. The darker color is called java brown and it amazing. The sink part has the sinks molded into the top so it is one piece. It looks like granite but it is not.


 The shower is huge as this is the space that the bathtub was. The shower doors have a textured pattern on them so that will hide all the hard water stains. I just love the look of the big tiles in the shower and the pebbles on the shower floor. The pebble stones are slightly raised so they massage your feet when standing on them.



  Here are some close-up pictures and ones of special touches. I never knew that I could experience joy from a new toilet. The one that we bought is chair height and it feels so good to sit on a new potty. We used the extra stones from the shower for this candle trivet.




I love having this shelf for all my beauty products. It helps me to keep it so organized. The shelf fits perfectly in the space that was once the shower. 


This rack is great for all my jewelry and hair items.


So loving my dragonfly hooks! These will be great for hanging our shower robe and clothes on.





 I just love this sea glass mirror and the color we chose for the vanity. Yes, this sink is all one piece! This coffee cup is perfect for the soap as it will keep the drips off the vanity.


This open shelf used to be a medicine cabinet. This will keep the clutter off the vanity. We just removed the door from the medicine cabinet and then painted the shelves and frame with gray paint. The open look looks so nice and will force me to keep things organized.


Love the light we chose! It was so unique and it gives off so much light.


These cute guys give our bathroom a southwest touch! My husband bought these from a guy at his work that makes these by hand.


These shelves in the shower will hold all my shampoo bottles! We installed four shelves so there is plenty of room for all our shower items like soap and razors. The stones on the shower floor give my feet an awesome massage as it feels so good to stand on them.







I am so happy with my bathroom. It is my favorite room in the house. I will leave you with the before and after photos. The transformation is simply amazing! I am glad that we finally remodeled our master bathroom. The difference is so amazing in this bathroom.
