The term “food display” is a very broad and can be defined as anything from a fake food arrangement to an outdoor menu stand featuring a daily food special. A food display can also be described as a dispenser of candy, cereal, or coffee beans. A food display is also the actual bin that houses bulk food like bagels, cookies or pastries. A recent trend in food displays is using a wicker basket or a wire floor stand to present baked goods in a country store, bakery, or breakfast shop. A food display encompasses all aspects of displays used to store, present, and even promote various food or other merchandising items. Food displays can be decorative as well as functional display fixtures for any kind of food service establishment, including a restaurant, bakery, candy shoppe, coffee hous, deli, banquet hall, buffet, country store and more.

In order to choose the right food display for your food service establishment or retail store, it is essential to consider the environment’s decor. Are you in need of a food display to reflect more of a contemporary design quality, or to match a country themed motif? For a country style bakery or store designed with a country style, there are several unique food displays suited to hold and store bulk food items. These lovely products are fabricated from wicker or natural willow and come in the form of a tray or basket; many even incorporate counter top or wire floor stands to display the baskets. This article discusses wicker and natural willow baskets, as well as wire racks, in more detail.

Food displays, like natural willow wicker baskets, are ideal for an array of locations, from retail stores, supermarkets and restaurants, to country stores and homes. Typically, the baskets are fabricated from either natural willow, or polypropylene plastic. All styles of baskets offer durable yet ornate designs, and act as alternative solutions to presenting and storing food or other food service merchandising products.

Most wicker products are fabricated from natural willow fibers for strength, stability, and a warm appeal.
Polypropylene baskets are woven to closely resemble the willow products, but are less expensive in price.

Wicker, willow, and polypropylene baskets are all tightly woven to bring a more sustainable and attractive design to your displays. These country style food displays are always available in many sizes and styles to choose from. Each offers its own unique details, such as a tray-like design or a basket with hinged handles. A trug-like display can present freshly-baked baguettes and bagels in a bakery, while the 2-handled baskets are ideal for presenting all-natural jellies and jams, and other homemade or handmade products. Featuring braided edges for a decorative, polished look – willow baskets, wicker storage bins and polypropylene food displays, are ideal items for a multitude of food service establishments. Wicker, willow, and polypropylene braided baskets, are the perfect food displays to place in a country themed restaurant, shop, or store.

Wicker baskets combined with wire stands and counter top racks, create a traditional and warm look. Wire racks are generally offered in either counter top or floor standing models and are built to withstand years of use in busy locations.

Wire racks for table or counter top use are space-savers. For smaller restaurants and stores with limited space, counter top wicker baskets combined with wire racks are an excellent solution. Counter top food display racks are often found in bakeries, restaurants, grocery stores, and retail shops. These items provide a way to display condiments, packed foods, candies or toiletries effectively. Food display baskets and stands are available in a number of sizes, finishes, and colors for you to select from to coordinate with your existing decor. These trendy, natural looking displays also keep your food and merchandising products neatly organized.
Floor standing wire racks combined with wicker baskets, enable you to display products attractively as well as neatly. Many of the wire racks come in 3 or 4 tiered designs. With wire floor standing racks, you are able to show several food displays on one stand. Many wicker, willow and wire food displays, are manufactured to optimize floor space and make room for more food display products. Floor standing wicker and wire displays are typically used by retailers, in restaurants, bakeries, and even in spas or homes.

Additionally, wicker baskets and wire racks are used to store and display country linens, curtains, flowers, handmade soaps and other retail merchandise. These are also items that you would want to display in your restaurant, bakery or country store. Several more examples of natural willow products include, rectangular baskets, baskets featuring sloped designs, tiered nesting baskets, wicker trays sold in sets, round baskets with handles, presentation trays and much more. Depending on the particular food item you are looking to display, you can be sure there is a viable option available to suit your needs. In most cases, wire stands are designed to accommodate many styles of wicker and willow baskets, whether counter top or floor standing.

There are several major companies that manufacture custom window treatments.  In alphabetical order they are: Bali, Comfortex, Graber, Hunter Douglas, Kirsch and Levolor.  Most people are fairly unaware of the brand names in this industry.  It is nothing like automobiles or other well known consumer products.  And, to be sure, there are other smaller manufacturers that produce cheaper, ready-made blinds and shades.  For example, if you went to the Home Depot and bought a ten dollar mini blind, it is most likely made in China by some faceless, unknown company.

These manufacturers all have slightly different positions within the market, have been in business for different lengths of time and specialize in different things. It should also be noted that each brand offers window treatments at different prices levels.  From most expensive to least expensive, the brands should be listed as follows: Hunter Douglas, Graber and Kirsch (similar), Comfortex and Bali.

The largest company, by far, is Hunter Douglas, which is actually a multi-national company based in the Netherlands.  They are also probably on of the most recognizable window treatment brands in the world.  They are also generally the most expensive.  But, if you want the top of the line window treatment, this is the brand for you.  Hunter Douglas pretty much invented lightweight aluminum blinds, also called Venetian blinds.  And, they have many other innovations the most notable of which is cellular shades launched in 1985, under the brand name, “duette honeycomb shades.”  The company’s origins go back to 1919 but it wasn’t until 1946 that they started making window treatments, the aforementioned aluminum mini blinds.  Their US manufacturing headquarters are in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey. 

Next up is Bali.  However, Bali is actually a brand name of a larger company called, Springs Window Fashions.  The headquarters of this company are in Middleton, Wisconsin but they also manufacture some of their window treatments in Mexico.  Springs also sells two other brands of window treatments, Graber and Nanik.  And, the company manufactures blinds, shades and curtains for retailers that are labeled as private label or as a “house-brand.”  It is likely that if you bought a house brand from a major retailer, online or brick and mortar, it is a Springs product.   

Comfortex was founded in 1986 and is headquartered in Maplewood, New York, which is near Albany.  Comfortex is now a wholly-owned, independent subsidiary of Hunter Douglas.  The company also has a manufacturing facility in Phoenix, Arizona.  Comfortex is a company that prides itself on innovation, especially in the area of energy-efficient window treatments, such as cellular shades, cellular vertical blinds and others.

Levolor, next to Hunter Douglas is one of the most recognizable names in the window treatment industry.  The company was actually founded in 1914, and was probably best know for it 1 inch mini blinds, also know as micro blinds.  Today the company is a division of the multi-billion dollar consumer products company, Newell Rubbermaid. 
The manufacturing headquarters for Levolor is in High Point, North Carolina.   

Kirsch is another company with a long history; it was founded in 1907 where it started by manufacturing curtain rods.  An interesting side note, all the curtain rods in the movie, “Gone With The Wind” were Kirsch rods.  There products have also been featured in other movies.  It seems odd to me that a company with such a long and rich history would be so unknown.  By 1923, the company built half million square foot manufacturing plant in Sturgis, Michigan.  And, then in 1956, the company added another 250,000 square feet of assembly and storage space to their headquarters.  Today, Kirsch, which is also a division of the Newell Rubbermaid Company, offers a complete line of quality, custom window treatments. 

Though there is a range of price from, let’s say, Hunter Douglas to Bali, each manufacturer builds a good product.  Much like an automobile, the difference is in the details, options and internal parts.  You can’t really go wrong with any one brand; it just depends on your tastes and your budget.

So there you have it, an introduction to the world of custom window treatments and the brands behind them.  As a follow up, I will have to do an exciting, ground-breaking piece on the history aluminum mini blinds or shutters. Stay tuned.  – David Brooks

Curtains are a fast way to bring new life and color to any room, and now home decorators can create them more quickly and easily than ever. One clever example: simply clip an attractive tablecloth or tea towel onto a rod. Curtains and drapes will give you the more traditional window covering that you can combine with window shades and blinds.

Choosing a great window treatment idea can be a daunting task if you’re not sure where to start.

Measure each window separately and record the measurements on paper. Be sure to check all measurements twice before you purchase a new window treatment. Measuring and installation is available in the Brooklyn, NY area. Measure from the point you’ll hang the shade to the point where you want it to drop. Add an extra two inches to the top portion of the window frame to allow for mounting brackets.

There are many types of window treatments to choose from. Aside from the standard curtains and drapes here are: wood blinds, pleated shades, cellular shades, plantation shutters, aluminum mini blinds, and vertical blinds are only a few of the many options available.

Matchstick and bamboo blinds can be found at many imports stores or on the Internet. Wooden vertical blinds offer a vast choice of different natural and stained colors. The lightweight woods which offer paler colors such as ash and beech can create a warming and inviting atmosphere, for a more contemporary and dramatic effect dark woods such as dark oak and rowan are very striking. Don’t forget the interior wood shutters. These give a country styled appearance to a home and kitchen. They may be painted in any color that one desires.

Wood, for example, is warm and rich and works well in home offices. Deciding on what type of blind to use in each room can be done with your own creativity or you can hire an interior designer who can offer more helpful advice.

Wood blinds can be cleaned with a cleaner suited for wood surfaces. Use water sparingly, however, as you don’t want to damage the wood. Wood shutters are charming and substantial; those that cover only the bottom half of the window protect privacy but let in light, so you’ll want to add roller shades or Roman shades on top. Gathered Roman shades, handsome even in simple canvas, look wonderful in a circus stripe. Shades are similar to blinds, but instead of slats, they consist of fabric.

Choosing the right kind of window treatment for your home can get very overwhelming and confusing. You should work from the design style in the room you are decorating and choose a treatment that complements the design. Since most curtains and drapes are simply vertical in design; these can work in any décor. You just have to choose a color that fits and that is done by finding the predominant color and matching it (if there is not a lot of this color) or complementing it to avoid oversaturating the predominant color.

A fabric store is the best place to start; so bring a sample of the predominant color with you.

Though arched window treatment seems to be a challenging project, you still have plenty of options. What you will choose depends on your budget, your needs and, of course, of your home decor style. But, if you want to find a successful arched window treatment for your home, answer at first to these questions:

Where is your arched window located?

What is its size and shape?

Is it a single one, or a part of several windows?

Do you need to add window dressing for light and privacy control, or do you want just to beautify your arched window?

If you need to block light coming through your arched window, or to control your privacy – shop for window shades or blinds. There are many options for arched windows. Since there are so many types of arched windows, ordering custom made window blinds or shades is an easiest way to get a perfect covering for such windows. It’s quite costly, of course, but it pays to do it. With serious manufacturers, like Hunter Douglas, Graber, Kirsch, or Levolor, you will get a perfect arched window treatment.

Some arched window treatment ideas

You can treat arch separately from the entire window. For example, cover the arch with wooden shutters or honeycomb shades and put roman shades, bamboo shades, draperies, or other type of window treatment below. It works well when you need to match the arched window dressing with the rest of window treatments in the room.

Do you have a wide eyebrow window? Then install curtain track high above the window and hang draperies of your choice. If you wish, you can install double track for draperies and sheers. Such treatment will enhance the beauty of the eyebrow window.

For a narrow arched window hang a curtain on a wide curved curtain rod, for making it visibly larger. For a single and not very tall window you can put drapery that puddle on the floor, if you like such style. It will give an effect of a tall window and will add a unique decorative accent to the entire room.

If the privacy and light blockage is not your priority – put decorative curtain rod above the window and hang sheer valance or window scarf. Such dressing will not hide your beautiful arch and on the same time it will give an additional charm to the whole window.

Whether you own property in Capitola, or anywhere else, chances are, after a few years of staring at the same old kitchen, you’re itching for a chance to revamp it.

However, kitchen renovation is an expensive exercise, and you may be wondering where you’ll find the money to fix up your tired old units, and get some great new accessories, without breaking the bank.

Here are a few great tips that will give your property in Capitola a great new kitchen, without costing you a fortune:

Decide on a theme. This is very important, because once you know what theme you like, you can start doing some research. Are you looking for a clinical white minimalist kitchen, or does country or shaker style suit you more? Do you like modern, contemporary, or traditional? Knowing what you like can help the creative process, and once you have some direction, you can look through decorating magazines or websites for more inspiration! If you don’t have money for new cabinets, why not sand down your existing units, and give them a fresh coat of varnish or paint? Almost any surface can be painted, but make sure you check with the hardware store that you have the right primer, or undercoat. Some paints won’t stick to certain surfaces. Adding new handles to your existing units can take them from boring and outdated to fabulous in minutes. Why not take a trip to your nearest hardware store, and find some great new handles, that you can fit yourself? Update your curtains. It’s amazing what a change new curtains or blinds can do for a kitchen, or any other room for that matter. Just make sure you match your choice to your theme – delicate lace curtains will look out of place in a cutting edge modern kitchen, while slick venetian blinds won’t suit a country style. Choose timeless colors. When it comes to cabinets, walls and floors, you don’t want to be getting too adventurous with color. Choose something that you’ll be able to live with for at least a few years to come, and add color with great, cheap accessories. A fabulous cookie jar, or set of bright canisters, will lift the look of the room, without costing a fortune, and when you’re tired of them, invest in new ones. When shopping for appliances, have a look online. There are sites that sell well known brand name appliances at budget friendly prices. Have a look at us-appliance.com, or type cheap appliances or low cost appliances into your browser for lots more results.

Whether you’ve owned your property in Capitola for years, or if you are looking at buying property in Capitola, getting a modern, up to date, state of the art kitchen need not be the major expense you think it will be. Save money by being creative, giving the major features a face lift yourself, and shopping around for funky, well priced appliances and accessories.

The bedroom is the most personal space in your house. Have you done it up in a way that makes it calming and relaxing where you love to spend time? Or is it just a place where you sleep at night with a bed and a few pillows thrown in? If it is, then it’s time to change. Whatever your budget might be, you can turn your bedroom into a romantic love nest to spend time with your special someone, or a place where you can retreat to with a book for some ‘me’ time.

Doing the interior decoration of your bedroom can be fun and fulfilling. Create a space where you can recharge your batteries after a stressful day at work. Personalize it the way you want instead of bothering with what people will think of it. After all, it’s your space! Keep in mind a few things while you are at it.

1. Before starting to do the interior decoration of your bedroom, come up with a realistic budget. It does not matter whether it’s too small. There are lots of ways to do it up that are not expensive. You can change the curtains and buy colorful cushions that will make your bedroom look lively and happy. If you have a better budget, you can go all out with new bedding and painting the walls in your favorite hue. But remember the most important thing about the budget is that you need to stick to it.

2. Keep in mind the size of the room before you start. Dark colors on the walls make a room look smaller so choose appropriately. Using lighting and mirrors cleverly can make your bedroom look bigger than it is.

3. Come up with a theme. For instance, if pink and girlie is your style, opt for pink curtains and colorful cushions strewn all over for a super-cute look. You can also try modern minimalist style or French Country Style.

4. The bed should be comfortable for you to sleep on. Trying it out before buying it is a good idea. A side table for keeping the book you are reading at the moment and a glass of water is always useful.

5.While decorating your bedroom pay special attention to the flooring. You can opt for laminate, wood or cork flooring for a new modern look.

6. Use your imagination doing up the lighting. A lone overhead light is just not enough in these days of advanced technology. Opt for lighting that can be dimmed or brightened as you please. It will create a different ambience in the day, noon and night.

Invest time in interior decorating your bedroom in a way that makes it a haven for you and your loved ones. Instead of trying to impress your friends or neighbors try to create a space that defines you and makes you happy. We spend one-third of our lives in bed and its time to give the room we do it in a much needed facelift. So gear up and get your creative juices flowing!

The relaxed, country style appeal of the Tuscan interior design style exudes a warm and cheerful atmosphere in any part of the home. For these reasons, this style has enjoyed tremendous popularity over the years, especially in the kitchen. Its hallmark characteristic is its rustic charm derived from objects that are easily found in the rolling hills of the wine-producing Italian countryside. From painting your walls a light beige to hanging simple metal wall artworks, you too can have a Tuscan kitchen!

When one thinks of the Tuscan countryside, two things immediately come to mind: food and wine. These are the two basic features of the Italian country lifestyle. In decorating your kitchen, you don’t need to be too literal in transferring this design aesthetic in your home. What you can do is borrow some of the more obvious elements and give them a unique interpretation while still adhering to the basic design features. For example, given the integral role of wine, you can add touches of leaf-inspired designs like those found in metal artworks such as wall grilles and wine racks. For those who want to evoke the same rustic appeal in their kitchens, we have created a simple list of must-have design elements to create a Tuscan-inspired kitchen.

Colors: Given that the rustic farmhouses of the Tuscan region are traditionally made out of ubiquitous materials, the color palette therefore uses more warm, natural, and earthy tones such as beige, light yellow, brown, and white among others. In your kitchen, you can easily incorporate this by painting walls in these colors, using matching cookware in the same color palette, or showcasing a prominent display of crockery in open shelves and other clearly visible areas. Take note that the colors should not be limited to just this color scheme; unless you want your kitchen to look monochromatic and boring, consider adding splashes of red, mustard, or lavender here and there.

Fabrics: Wherever possible, use fabrics that are reminiscent of those used in the countryside. As a rule, cotton and lace are the typical fabrics used in Tuscan-style interior design. For the more traditional ones, revel in using dainty lace curtains and tablecloths as well as beige damasks and chintz. However, if you are not particularly fond of these difficult to maintain fabrics, limit the inspiration to just the windows. This will give the same effect. In choosing curtains and draperies, you may use those with colors such as those mentioned above. For the bolder ones, feel free to use rust, deep cherry, and bright yellow.

Accent Pieces: In the old times, accessories found in an Italian country home should be practical and built to last. Simplicity was the norm. Thus, it was not uncommon for kitchens to dominantly feature simple metal or wooden wine racks. However, if you do not have the space nor the inclination to collect wines, you can simply choose to hang copper pots, handmade baskets or ornate wall grilles. The deep, earthy colors and leaf-inspired designs of these metal artworks can easily fit into a Tuscan-inspired kitchen.

A change in the curtains or blinds of a window can make a difference in the total atmosphere of a home. Homeowners who are in a tight budget can fix up their windows and they can already get an instant change in their interiors at lesser cost.

Curtains and blinds are both aesthetic and functional because they keep the privacy of a home while improving its interior. It also keeps dust and prying eyes away from your home.

The type of curtain that should be placed in a window should match the interior design of a home. A classical home design calls for silky window curtains that can add elegance to the home. However, homeowners who prefer country style interiors should opt for curtains with flowery or other designs depicting the outdoors or the countryside.

The choice of curtain should also be influenced by the type of room where such curtains would be placed. A girl’s window can be decorated with dainty curtains while a man’s bedroom can be decorated with a no nonsense curtain that matches the color preference of the room occupant.

There various curtain designs to choose from depending on the preferences of the homeowner. There are unlined curtains; hourglass curtains and no sew curtains. The homeowner can also choose form a variety of colors and design for the curtains.

However, a homeowner can choose the right curtains but ruin the overall effect if the window is left dusty and unkempt. It is important to keep windows clean and free of dust before adorning them with curtains or blinds. It should be noted that curtains can attract dust and other allergens so better make sure they are regularly replaced and washed,

For those who have allergies, the best way to decorate windows is through the use of vinyl blinds. Vinyl blinds are not as susceptible to keeping dust as long as they are wiped with a clean cloth daily. Like curtains, there are various types of vinyl blinds to choose from. There are vertical blinds and there are horizontal blinds. You can also have your windows fitted for the exact blind size.

Whatever kind of window treatment you choose to install, make sure that it serves its purpose, both functional and artistic.
