More pet owners are using lifestyle reasons for abandoning their animals, according to an RSPCA report. The organisation's staff rescued 7,347 dumped pets in 2007, up 23 per cent from the 5,959 recorded in 2006. Examples of dumped animals included a litter of kittens left in a dustbin bag for bin men and a rabbit abandoned in a box in a crushing machine at a recycling centre. Also worrying are the excuses given by owners who no longer want to look after their pets. "My dog hurts my legs when she wags her tail," one said, while another claimed: "My Pussy doesn't match my new carpet or curtains."

There are only a few simple rules to follow here; the length of the hung curtain should be to the floor or the windowsill. Anything in between looks rather odd.There is a trend today of puddling curtains, this is where they are made longer than the height required and “puddle” on the floor, this requires a skill in fabric selection, so that they sit well. It is used commonly in living rooms and bedrooms.With puddle curtains on a hand drawn track, make sure that the width of the curtain is not excessive as they become heavy and difficult to draw back. They are also prone to picking up all the fluff from your floor, so a little bit more attention is required to keeping them looking smart.The top of the curtain (the heading), for all curtains can be at ceiling height, above or at the top

I was round a friend's house today and he's got a really good glass encolsure around his terrace in Duquesa. I have seen these becoming more and more popular as it allows the terrace to be used all year round.In our area it's particularly good for keeping the terrace clean! It's so dusty around here that especially in the summer you end up cleaning your terrace nearly every day just to get rid of the dust.I saw this website about glass curtains Spain whish shows some examples of glass curtains. Have you seen these glass curtains yourself? What do you think of them?I like the fact that they don't change the look of the terrace much but I wonder if as part of a community you could fit these without it needing to be approved by the community?? Will take a look into that but I assume each

HDB draws curtains on bi-monthly flat salesFriday • April 18, 2008THE Housing and Development Board (HDB) received 5,700 applications for 490 flats in its final bi-monthly sale of four-room and larger units that closed on Wednesday.Bi-monthly sale exercises attract more applicants and a higher take-up rate, as the flats on offer are either completed or nearing completion, said the HDB.But with the progressive clearance exercises of unsold flats, fewer units are left available on a walk-in basis — and, as earlier announced, the HDB will offer its three-room premium and larger flats under half-yearly sale exercises, instead of bi-monthly. Prospective buyers are advised to opt for the Build-to-Order (BTO) system — in which flats take about three years to complete — that make up the ma

If I were a teenage girl giving my bedroom a makeover, I think I'd have to cover it from ceiling to area rug in Betty Boop graphics. I just adore everything that has Betty Boop pictures on it. Most teens and tweens now have bathrooms that adjoin their bedrooms, so if you are going to have a Betty Boop bedding set, you might as well decorate the bathroom to match the comforter, right? There are several contemporary styles of Betty Boop shower curtains and bath accessories to pick from. Currently there are trendy images that are a cross between Betty Boop and Marilyn Monroe that have Betty standing over a hot air grate on a city street trying to stop the white skirt of her flirty dress from flying over her head and revealing more than the sexy garter belt with a big red heart on it and a

I could feel the tears in my eyes before I opened them St. Patrick’s Day morning...It was the first day of spring, a season that is always good to me, so I wondered why tears were in my eyes. But, I shrugged it off and decided to focus on secure moments and new beginnings before getting out of bed.For some reason, I always project myself into the future during the spring season and on Sundays-For example, on Sunday I think of Monday, and during the spring months, I remember long hot summers.Except, on this first day of spring I didn't think of the summer, I thought of cowboy curtains instead. . . I remembered the cowboy curtains that hung in my uncle’s boyhood room at my grandmother’s house. They always smelled good, probably because they dried clinging to the clothesline on breezy s

Curtains Make The Home: In audience is an old axiom that says that the costume make the man. If this is true, then shouldn’t skylight curtains make the room? Yet there are some that feel that curtains are not a major part of redecorating. This can lead to a decoration disaster. Curtains are more than just cloth that is hung to prevent light from entering a room. They are an elaborate part of home décor that needs to be chosen carefully. The curtains hanging from your windows are what bringing a room together, giving it balance and concurrence. Window curtains have come a long way in the past few decades, and are considered dressing for your windows. Interior designers spend innumerable hours flipping through swatches of cloth to choose the perfect material for curtains. They consider i

The bathroom is a much-overlooked room in our homes. Most of us start and end our day in the bathroom; we rev up in the mornings, and calm down for the night's sleep.

Country shower curtains are a particularly useful item of decor when considering a change in the look of your bathroom. You can find country themes in a variety of colors and designs, making it easy to match the existing bathroom elements. Shower curtains are relatively inexpensive, especially when considering the cost of a new tub, vanity or tile. You can even change them with the season. Imagine having the look of changing leaves in the Fall, and blooming flowers in the Spring!You can even buy spe

Between looking for a wedding dress pattern, and fabric, and table overlay fabric, I’m also starting to think about setting up the new house. And now I’m panick stricken - I don’t have curtains!!! This sucks big time - I dont have the time to go and look for curtains NOW!? Maybe I should consider blinds, but then, if we decide to move, we have to go through the whole rig-ma-roll again? Blinds are a whole lot more convenient though… At Select Blinds, they have blinds for very reasonable prices, but still I’m unsure. I’m totally in love with their venetian blinds, but still - I’m torn :/

This room is an excellent example of ceiling mounted curtains behind a fixed pelmet or cornice.This space has a wonderful collection of features and dramatic use of pattern and color as a feature wall. The damask look wallpaper provides the room with definite personality and is unmistakably the focal point with the television screen centered on the wall. The curtains are functional in this room, they provide a softer subtle backdrop allowing diffused light to filter into the room. The choice of a natural color sheer fabric means that it is not competing for attention with the feature wall.This type of curtain track, ceiling mounted track, is not used often in homes but is very popular in apartments or where there is full height glazing to a wall as often there are no available fixing points on the wall to mount a track. The Barcelona sofa and stools by Mies van der Rohe are a popular 20th Century Furniture Design as well as the Le Corbusier Grand Confort sofas.The thick shag woo

I know some of this is off topic but here it goes anyway…I’m almost obsessed with not paying more money to the local power company or fuel companies than necessary to be warm and comfortable (or cool and comfortable). This is a hot topic (pun intended) now that those cold winds are blowing around here and we have snow. I’m especially concerned with overpaying for basic needs because we spend so much money on veterinary care and I want to eliminate unnecessary expenses. I came across this product last year called a window blanket. They were terribly expensive so I moved on. But…I liked the concept and it’s really pretty simple - if only I knew how to sew. So last year I did things to create air layers between the windows and the room they were in by, for example, (you’re going to laugh) hanging sheers closest to the window and creating a second layer by hanging clear shower curtains. My idea was to create a heavy plastic but see-through barri

Wanna change the "feel and look" of your bathroom? Guests for sure are coming over for the holidays and one area of the house that needs attention is the bathroom. An easy way to freshen and change the look is to change the shower curtain. At CozyHomeWares.com, you'll find a wide array of fabric shower curtains that will suit your style and decor in your bathroom.

Like for instance, the Dots fabric shower curtain I saw online. I just love the design and the nice soothing colors. By the way, right now, they are even offering free shipping within the USA. Who would pass up that freebie, right? Go check it out.

I finally hung my last blind today - my living room and office now have blinds and curtains that I like... and as a result it is very bright in here, which is wonderful. Yes, it took me two and a half months to do this. I'm a tad lazy. There are still two blinds I'd like to replace (spare bedroom and bathroom) as they came with the house and are obviously old and funny-colored. But I think I'll leave them for now.And in case you're interested in the rest of my hermitage:My bedroom :-)The spare bedroom, with its dungeon-like wood-paneling.

I think I am fanatic when it comes to curtains.Because I realized how important they are to give the right light to a room.And most people who think of themselves as interior designers focus too much on expensive furniture and mix of colors without understanding that it is the light that actually makes the colors and no mixture can look nice in the wrong light.I usually like plain, white, simple curtains.They easily go with every style and give the right light to any room.And what about poles?I think exactly the same.Poles should enhance the appearance of the room and of course of the curtain.Well, I go as far as to say the poles very often make the curtain.At Terry's Fabric Warehouse they stock a huge range of quality curtain poles to suit every budget and requirement.I think you do not need to spend a fortune, but you need to spend time to look and decide which is the right one.And what is better than a website where they can show a huge selection of poles AND curtains and tell you

Before settling on a window covering, consider the issue of care. All window coverings ultimately will be harmed by air-borned particles of dirt and grit. How difficult will it be to remove, clean and rehang the curtains?The amount of material you will need for a curtain depends on the type of heading and the type of fabric you choose. In order to look luxurious and well tailored, curtains need to be lined. Just as clothes styles change every few years, so do decorating styles for windows.

We're moving. Not sure exactly when (although we're hoping sometime in July) and not sure exactly where (although we know it will be the same town as my family).

Which, hopefully, will be home for a while.

You might have noticed a few fancy little changes we've made to your feed tree on the left pane today. You'll like them even more when you learn what's behind the scenes! We no longer update the entire left pane when the unread or "kept as new" counts change. Now the counts update in place with a fading yellow indicator. The result is a faster, more pleasant way to cruise through your feeds, especially for those quick on the hotkeys. We've decreased the time between automatic updates to your unread counts so you don't have to press the "r" hotkey quite so often. We hope you enjoy the changes. As always, if you have any feedback, feel free to let us know either via our contact form or by putting up a blog post containing the phrase "bloglines freedbacking". - The Bloglines Team

I'm looking for eyelet tape for my drapes that I'm making. I need 8 yd's of tape for the 2 windows. I want the larger grommet holes. I will also need 64 of the snap-on rings ( 8 rings per yard times ( X ) 8 yards. These aren't cheap. Some places want $6.95 per yard for the tape (approx. $56.00) plus around $2.00 per ring for 64 rings! ouch! I've looked at Homespun, Textrol, dritz, "create-for-less". Any better suggestions? Thanks PS The curtains themselves are not eyelet-type fabric, just a drapery weight polished poly/cotton.

Hi all I've some floor length windows in my DDs' bedroom that need curtains. I'll be lining them with (what the Australians call) 3-pass lining - ie. fabric with three coatings of some acrylic stuff - this then makes them heat/light proof (apparently). They will have a hard pelmet board above, and I'll be making (eventually!) a soft pelmet to attach to the pelmet board. I have nearly 60m (slightly more than 60 yds) of plain 90cm wide (probably about a yard wide) calico, that I got on special from a local store, which I was going to be using for making toiles (aka muslins) in dressmaking... I recently did some 'deep violet' dyeing in the washing machine, and put a sample piece of calico in with the item to be dyed. The end result (although too strong) is lovely... so I'm thinking about
