RALEIGH - HOUSEHOLD BITS AND PIECES
Raleigh, North Carolina. Perking Up Your Home And Daily Living. A simple item like a special floor mat in front of the sink can make life a little better. Standing on a hard wood or tile floor in front of the sink for a long period of time can do unkind things to your legs. Gel Pro Mats are filled with a soft gel and are scientifically engineered to absorb shock. They are available in a number of different colors, clean easily and are stain resistant.

Don’t you just A-Door it? In driving around during December I have had occassion to pay special attention to some front doors. In particular, two were bright red, one was bright green, one was a rich brown and one was yellow-gold. They had been refinished, re-painted with high gloss paint and all the hardware had either been refinished or was new including (in one case) the framing of the leading glass in the door. In every case approach produced a striking entryway. But beware! If not done properly it can be just plain ugly!
Looking for window ideas? Look up a local dealer in your area that handles HunterDouglas and ask for their free 92-page Designing Windows book.
Looking for something unusual for your kitchen? Check out your local artisans for one who makes decorative tiles and have him or her produce a ceramic tile tableau for a backsplash area. It won’t be cheap but it will add a dynamic look and feel to your kitchen.
Are you thinking about purchasing a new TV? If you are be certain to plan ahead. On Feb. 17, 2009, analog TV broadcast transmission will cease in the U.S. At that time all TV’s that receive signals from an antenna must be able to receive digital signals or use a converter box so it only make sense to buy digital.
In the words of the immortal Pogo Possum (to the tune of Deck the Halls) “Deck us all with Boston Charlie, Walla, Walla, Wash . . and Kalamazoo! Nora’s freezin’ on the trolley, swaller dollar cauliflower alley-garoo! Since I can’t improve on that I would just like to wish you the very best in all things. Merry Christmas!
