“One of our customers told us she didn’t want to spend money on a new bedroom set but wanted a new look in the room,” said Mr. Shah. “So in place of the headboard she hung one of our decorative curtain rod above the bed and fresh, new curtains on the rods. And in an instant she had a new look!”

The cross beam has holes in it that fits over the pins on the top of the light stands. It spreads from 5 feet to 10 feet wide. I think the whole kit cost 150$. Forgot to get the name…

Anyway, My question is – say i have two C-stands that would work for this – Is there someone who just sells the cross beam curtain rod that goes in between??

That would be awesome if i could buy that. Otherwise i guess i could just buy a metal pipe at home depot and rig that between two C-Stands to accomplish this – but metal curtain rod are heavy and not as easy to rig…

We started by digging base excavations for the foundations of the swings and see-saws. we then made the A-frames for the swings and cast them in concrete along with the base poles for the see-saws. We returned the next day to fit the see-saw together and fit the horizontal poles for the swings.

From then on we worked mostly at our homes building seats for the swings and handles for the see-saws.

Lastly we returned to the school to fit the handles and the seats and give them a good test.

Here are a few of the many, many kitchen styles to choose from, plus some designer tips to help you complete your charming kitchen with appropriate kitchen furniture styles.

Cottage style kitchens draw their inspiration from the simple honesty of smaller, older homes built in the’20’s. You will typically find cabinets made of wainscoting (beaded board) and clean, simple lines. Many kitchens use open shelving, window accessories with small panes, shutters, and wood flooring.

Shaker style kitchens are typified by plain, strong functionality and basic design. Cabinets and furniture are often made of cherry though other woods are sometimes favored. You may be fortunate enough to find a furniture maker who uses reclaimed, or recycled, wood to make Shaker furniture. You will pay a premium for kitchen furniture made from reclaimed wood but you will have ambiance galore with a long, wide harvest table made of American Chestnut, for example. Do you want to know more about Shaker kitchen furniture?

Furniture for Mission style kitchens is boxy, rectangular, and solid. Mission style utilizes a square aesthetic and solid wood construction. In older Mission style homes, the woodwork has often been painted over. Though removing the paint is very labor intensive, you will be rewarded with the warmth of real wood from an earlier era. If you want to know more about Mission style furniture fittings, you will want to investigate its close cousins, Craftsman and Arts and Crafts kitchen furniture styles.

How about having a country style kitchen? These cheerful spaces are often typified by bright wallpaper — plaid, gingham, striped, or checked. You will find chintz or calico window and wall treatments. Rather than glass, cabinet doors sometimes have pierced tin or even chicken wire. You may find exposed beams, and if so, all manner of antiques hanging on hand-forged nails are a nice touch. Country style kitchen furniture is clean, simple, and functional.

Should you be designing a contemporary kitchen, you will be thinking in a Scandinavian idiom. Choose clean, spare lines and lots of chrome and laminates. Functionality is the byword. The contemporary kitchen’s furniture should be striking in its simplicity. The best source we have found for contemporary kitchen furniture is Ikea. Treat yourself with a visit to an Ikea store.

Rustic kitchens and rustic kitchen furniture are our favorite theme. We love large, chunky furniture, often with dark stains or paint. Look for sturdy, almost over-built kitchen tables and chairs. Hardware is often hand-wrought iron. Decorate with copper pots and pans and painted tiles. You can buy antique storage units at premium prices, or shop contemporary stores for excellent look-alikes.

There are dozens more kitchen furniture hardware styles because there are as many styles for the kitchen as for rest of the home. To find your perfect style, browse the internet, using search terms like “Kitchen Furniture Styles.” We are absolutely certain you will be surprised at the sheer volume of the furniture styles available.

Cheap and Easy Designer Curtain Rod Materials:

Wooden Dowel (length of the curtain rod that you need for the window treatment)

Wood Finials (curtain rod ends)

Stain or Spray Paint (coordinating color for your home)

DIY Designer Curtain Rod Project Step 1: To make the cheap and easy curtain rods for your home you will first need to take a trip to the local home improvement store such as Home Depot or Lowe’s. Lowe’s typically sells 1 inch wooden dowels that are perfect for use as designer curtain rods in the home and they cost about $5 for a 10 foot dowel. Chances are you do not have a need for a 10 foot dowel unless you are making a designer curtain rod for a sliding glass door. Even in this case the rod length is typically only 8 feet or less. In addition to the wooden dowels that are for sale at these stores, there are also wooden style finials in all types of styles and designs available at these stores. The finials are typically $6 or less each so the entire curtain rod will cost less than $20 to make.

DIY Designer Curtain Rod Project Step 2: Begin by picking out the finials and the wooden dowel rod length that you need for your window treatment. Make sure that you purchase a rod that is about 4 inches longer than the width of the window that you are making the designer curtain rod for. If you have access to a skill saw or a hack saw then you can always buy a wooden dowel that is longer than necessary and cut it making more than one rod out of one dowel.
