Blanket racks for bedrooms
Keep things organized and tidy in the bedroom!
Quilts, comforters and blankets normally adorn the bed and if your family is anything like mine they usually end up on the floor, covering up a nice bedroom rug. I finally purchased a blanket rack, which for some reason my teenagers thought was a pretty cool accessory and started to hang there blankets and comforters on it.
I found these racks to be one of the better bedroom furniture items in a long time. They look good and form an intricate part of my bedroom decor. I can now see the nice pillows and bed skirts that I purchased. The idea behind these wonderful furniture pieces is the same as a coat rack. If they see it they will use it.
The blanket rack featured here is made of oak, the solid oak side panels are each supported by two barley twist posts. The lower drawer box is characteristic of old world raised paneled decoration, and the rack itself holds up to three blankets. This is also the rack that I bought for myself, truth is I went a little cheaper for my teenagers.

Room dividing screens
How do you make a large room to appear smaller without having to add a wall?
With a room dividing screen! Room diverds are an excellent way to create more privacy in a large living room when it is connected to a dining room. Many homes are built today with one large common room that is shared as a livingroom and as a dining area.
The biggest problem with this style of home is it is very hard to decorate one part of the room to look different than the other. What you want or need in the dining room may not match with your decor in the living area. A decorative rooom divider will solve this problem by creating a partition it will appear that these are two individual rooms.
For more information on room dividers go to this page about room dividing screens.
For teenagers that have to share a bedroom with a younger sibling a room dividing screen can save many arguments from even starting. They will give each child a space of their own. Its better than drawing a white line down the center of the room.
