Great selection of bar stools at Premiere Barstools

June 3, 2008 by Tricia

As my regular readers know Chris and I are very slowly renovating our home. It’s definitely a work in progress. I do however have all the plans in my head of how I’d like to decorate once our renovations are complete.

When we finally get to the kitchen renovation I want to open up the wall between the kitchen and dining room / living room. I don’t want to knock the wall down, just have an opening like a large window. We’d use that area as a breakfast nook, as a way to visit with our guest while preparing items in the kitchen and of course as a way to serve or pass food from the kitchen to the dining room.

I’ve been keeping my eye open for either some nice kitchen bar stools or perhaps counter stools that would fit into our decor.

It will be at least a year before we start renovating our kitchen, but since I’m picky about decor I’m already looking for bar stools and all the other items that we’ll need.

If you are also looking for barstools for your kitchen, dining room or perhaps a bar area you might want to visit Premiere Barstools. They have a large selection of discount bar stools, counter stools, kitchen barstools, pub table sets, outdoor stools and tables and even extra tall stools.

I’ve spent some time looking at the various bar stool styles and I’m impressed with the selection. As I said earlier I’m very picky about decor. When I’ve seen bar stools in retail and department stores they often only had a few styles.

Well designed bar or counter stools can enhance the look of a room and add functionality. As I said earlier I think our guests will probably end up sitting on the bar stools in order to visit with us as we work in the kitchen preparing a meal or snacks.

What I like about the Premiere Barstool site is that you can search for bar stools by height, by style – kitchen, counter, bar, outdoor and so on as well as by the material the bar stools are made from such as metal, wood, contemporary, backless, or Upholstered. You can also search by price range. I love sites that offer a variety of ways to find the items that you want.

Premiere Barstools ships free to all of the continental United States and they also ship internationally.

I’m going to take a look at all the styles and see if I can find something that suits our home. Why don’t you take a look at their selection too.

Save up to 200 dollars on in stock furniture

May 8, 2008 by Tricia

With inflation going up and the economy going down I think most people are interested in saving money, especially when it comes to major purchases.

I’m sure that some of you have been contemplating getting new living room furniture, or perhaps completely redoing the bedroom with all new bedroom furniture. Wouldn’t it be great if you could get the items you wanted and save money at the same time?

Wholesale Furniture Brokers, a furniture store, is have a sale on all their in stock furniture right now. You can save up to $200! This sale is only going on until tomorrow – May 9th though, so if you’re interested in getting a new platform bed or perhaps a comfortable recliner visit the site now and get your order in.

Wholesale Furniture Brokers isn’t just an online store. They have several locations throughout the United States. If you visit the site you can see a list of their locations in the left hand menu. I know when it comes to buying furniture it’s nice to see it in person, sit on a couch or lie on a bed to make sure it’s comfortable – right? Well if you live near one of their retail stores you can take a look at their bedroom furniture or living room furniture in person.

Lovely sideboards and buffet cabinets for your dining room

March 10, 2008 by Tricia

I’m not sure if I’ll count today as a write off, as in a wasted day, or if I’ve actually accomplished a few things that needed my attention. I think it will fall somewhere in the middle.

As I said in an earlier post I’ve spent a lot of time lying on the couch today because I threw my back out with all the snow shoveling I did on Saturday. I filled my time by watching some TV, writing a few posts on my blogs, reading a new forum and browsing online stores in an attempt to get some redecorating ideas so I’ll be ready when we complete our living room dining room renovation.

I think quite a few people start to get a yearning to redecorate as Spring approaches. I know I’ve gone through stages where I’d move the furniture in our living room around once or twice a year to give the room a new look, changing some of the rooms accessories each time as well.

One of the sites that I visited today was eBuffet.com. They carry a wide line of buffet tables and buffet cabinets in a range of styles and price ranges to suit any budget.

I already have a beautiful antique dining room set and I don’t plan to replace it anytime soon, but perhaps you’ve been thinking of purchasing new dining room furniture for your home or adding a beautiful sideboard to add to the look and function of your dining room.

buffettable.jpg eBuffet has beautiful antique sideboards and buffet cabinets. This one, to the right, actually looks quite a bit like the one I own.

Buffet tables and sideboards usually have drawers and cabinets that are perfect for storing your fine china and other dining room accessories that you’d use when serving a meal in your dining room. They’re impressive pieces of furniture to look at and functional too.

Along with sideboards and buffet cabinets you’ll also find buffet hutches, as well as complete buffet and or dining room sets. Their buffet cabinets and sideboards come in many styles ranging from antique, contemporary and traditional. Take a look at their selection. Oh and if you want to save some money take a peek at their clearance section. They have some great deals listed there!

Now I’m off to get more redecorating ideas.

Finally upgrading my WP sites and their plugins!

March 7, 2008 by Tricia

Over the last few days I’ve spent a good portion of my time updating all of my blogs. All of the new ones – the hush hush ones – have been updated to WP 2.3.3. It was easy to do because I was able to use Fantasico in my web hosting C-Panel to do it.

Now I have to update all of the blogs on this domain! Argh … I’ve moved those blogs to new web hosts twice in the last year and the last time was a manual update so this time round all the blogs will have to be manual updated too. It’s ok to do one or two manually, but when you have seven or eight that need to be upgraded manually it’s a pain in the butt! By the time I’m done I’ll be the WordPress upgrading queen! (17 blogs later!)

I’d also been having trouble on all my blogs when I’d try to save or publish a new post. A few months ago I had some kind of conflict occur when I upgraded my bad behavior plugin and the Google Sitemaps plugin on the same day. Ever since then I’d always get an error message when I saved or published a post. The posts were published but I’d have to check to be sure. It was a pain! I didn’t realize it but it was also messing up the do follow tags on my sites too. So there was a conflict between three plugins!

Luckily I discovered that there was yet another new Bad Behavior plugin update as well as a new Google XML sitemaps plugin. I updated those two plugins and refreshed my permalinks and TADA everything works right again!

Now I just hope that I don’t have any problems with my wordpress themes when I upgrade the sites on Feverishthoughts.com to the most recent WP upgrade. I think all my blogs on this domain are using 2.2.1 so it’ll be a big upgrade. If you drop by and notice that one of my feverishthoughts blogs is sporting a new very plain bare bones theme then you’ll know something strange happened when I updated the platform. It will only be temporary.

Once all that is done I can get back to work on the new blogs. One is a home and garden blog that will discuss mostly home type topics (my gardening blog will go back to mainly gardening!) such as decor, interior decorating, great recipes, tips for around the home and so on. The other blog is a shopping blog where I’ll talk about fashion trends, cosmetics, new home decor designs – who knows I’m sure I’ll even talk about platform beds on one or both!

Working on those two sites has inspired me again. I’m full of ideas and of course every time I find something cool to write about I also want to go out and buy it. I’ll be unveiling these new blogs shortly and I really hope that you like them. I’m trying to keep it fun, interesting and of course full of helpful information.

Have any of you updated your sites recently? Did it go well?

Anyone start any new blogs too? What is your new blog about? Are you being re-inspired as well?
