HDMI Wall Plates

I was at a local electronics store yesterday and I saw some cool looking HDMI wall plates. I had previously never even heard of an HDMI wall plate, but I was talking to one of the guys who works there and he said that they are actually becoming very popular. I’m thinking about installing a few of them in my house. Quality video is very important to me, especially while watching movies.

Dress Up Your Home With Fiberglass Columns

Posted in Random Thoughts, Home Improvement, Website Reviews on May 2nd, 2008

On a recent day trip, we traveled to a nice town in Washington. There were many very expensive homes that looked like they could be considered mansions. The fiberglass columns were beautiful. They were a lot like pillars but much fancier. We talked to some of the owners, that were having an open house that weekend. They explained that they should never have to replace them for many years or maybe never. They should never rot, since they bought the more expensive ones. It was unbelievable how beautiful fiberglass columns made the homes look.

Dress Up Your Home’s Exterior

Posted in Home Improvement, Gift Ideas, Shopping, Website Reviews on May 2nd, 2008

There are so many different decorative items that you can dress up your yard, porch and outside areas with. Since it is summertime, I planted a lot of flowers in my bordered flower garden and also hung flowers in hanging baskets. They really looked nice. I decided to hang wind chimes on a hook by my back door and also by my front door. They have such a nice soothing sound to them. The last outdoor item I purchased was some stepping stones to put in garden. My yard really looks so much nicer now.

Starting My Own Home Theater

Posted in Home Improvement, Shopping, Website Reviews on February 6th, 2008

After posting about a friend of mines home theater room, I decided to go out and buy myself a Bose home theater audio system. I could not be happier with the surround sound audio system. Yeah, it was a little pricey, but you can really feel the deep rumbling bass and the piercing highs. It feels like you’re actually in the middle of the action.

Very Nice Home Theater Room

Posted in Random Thoughts, Home Improvement, Website Reviews on February 3rd, 2008

A friend of mine recently finished building his home theater room. He finished it off with some very nice leather home theater chairs. I told him that I thought he was wasting his money when he started working on his home theater, but now I am very jealous of how it turned out. He’s got the best surround system I’ve ever heard, a very nice projector with a super high quality screen for it, new home theater seating, a popcorn machine, a huge DVD collection and so much more. I hope that I can do the same thing in my own home one day.

He Finally Finished His Home Theater Room

Posted in Random Thoughts, Home Improvement, Website Reviews on January 23rd, 2008

A friend of mine recently upgraded his home entertainment room with some very nice leather home theater seating. He has been working for about 6 months trying to get his media room finished and it’s finally done. He’s got a very nice surround sound system with about 10 different speakers mounted on the walls around the room, a very nice projector with a high quality screen for it, a nice little popcorn machine and now he has the perfect seating. I’m jealous.

New Modern Furniture

Posted in Home Improvement, Shopping, Website Reviews on November 15th, 2007

A friend of mine recently purchased some new modern furniture for his family room and it really looks great. He ordered the Beige Orange Leather Sofa Loveseat Chair Living Room Set from ModernLineFurniture.com and he is very happy with it. The quality is great and it looks excellent. The set even came with two free ottomans, worth over $250.00. If I decide to splurge and pick up some new furniture I will probably get something similar to what he got.

New Ceiling Light

Posted in Home Improvement, Gift Ideas, Website Reviews on October 31st, 2007

I think I’m going to pick up a new ceiling light for our bedroom. The one we have now looks okay but it doesn’t really go with any of our furniture. My girlfriend has been talking about wanting to get a new light for a while so I think I’m going to pick one up and get it installed before she gets home from work one day soon.

Replacing Bar Faucets

Posted in Home Improvement, Gift Ideas, Website Reviews on September 13th, 2007

I’m thinking about replacing my bar faucets. I’ve been looking at the selection on Faucets.com and I think new faucets would really change the whole look of my bar sinks. They are also priced pretty reasonable. I can replace both faucets with something very nice for under $300 or I can go all out and spend twice that if I decide to. Either way, i really need to replace the faucets. I just thought Faucets.com had a very nice selection. Now all I have to do is get my girlfriend to let me buy them. That shouldn’t be too hard though. I’ll just buy her something too.
