Members pneu-engine Posted March 13, 2004 Members Share Posted March 13, 2004 Curtains (from Country Curtains) windows with large panes --or-- The old fashioned colonial very-large windows with many small panes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chelle Posted March 13, 2004 Members Share Posted March 13, 2004 [quote] The old fashioned colonial very-large windows with many small panes [/quote] Those are the best, in my opinion. Not only do they look nicer, but the smaller panes act as kind of a "filter" because they don't let in quite as much sunlight as a big pane of glass would...your furniture and floorcoverings don't get faded (as quickly) Wall-to-wall carpeting or Hard flooring with area rugs here and there?

Members Chelle Posted March 13, 2004 Members Share Posted March 13, 2004 Paint on the walls -- easier to cover up if you don't like the color (and it doesn't rip apart your drywall ;) ) :D Front Door: with or without a window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pneu-engine Posted March 13, 2004 Members Share Posted March 13, 2004 Without the window. Foyer inside front door:: Indoor/Outdoor carpet for more warmth and insulating qualities, -- or-- A harder and more easily washable floor covering: stone tile, terazzo, linoleum, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chelle Posted March 13, 2004 Members Share Posted March 13, 2004 [quote] A harder and more easily washable floor covering: stone tile, terazzo, linoleum, etc [/quote] definitely the above -- but you must remember, I live in Texas. :D Mattress: Firm or Soft?

Members pneu-engine Posted March 14, 2004 Members Share Posted March 14, 2004 Relatively firm mattress, with a soft, cushy pillow-top. :lol: Coverings for those long, cold winter nights::: Quilts and comforters, on top of one flannel cover-sheet --or-- Lots and lots of covers on top of the flannel sheet.

Members Chelle Posted March 15, 2004 Members Share Posted March 15, 2004 [quote] Quilts and comforters, on top of one flannel cover-sheet [/quote] That is preferable. I find that the more layers I have, the hotter I get during the night. I can't stand to wake up sweaty. Eeeeewwwwww!! Okay, pillows: Soft or firm?
