How to Get More Room in Your Closet in 20 Minutes

Do you need more closet space? Do you have to many things you want to store in your closet but not enough room? Wouldn't it be nice to have closet storage that was ample to accommodate all your things that need to be in there?

Wood Shelving Brackets

If you are like most people, there really is not enough room in your closet whether it be a bedroom closet, hall closet or utility closet. The clothes on your hangers are probably all smashed together just to make them fit. How frustrating is it to get out what you are going to wear for the day or at night and have it all wrinkled. Now you have to spend time ironing these pieces of clothing.

Wood Shelving Brackets

There is a way to get more room in your closet in about 20 minutes. Do you want to know how to do this?

Here it is. The simple man or woman's way to create that needed space to organize your closet.

You will need two pieces of wood. One for the side and one for the top. You will also need another metal bar to hang your clothes from. You can substitute a wood dowel for a metal bar if you would like.

Get a piece of plywood or solid wood that is about 24 inches wide. The height needs to be determined in a minute. What you are going to do is create a two tier rack to hang your clothes from. Just about all closets have the rod where the clothes hang positioned at a level that takes up way to much room and takes away space. The height of your piece of wood should be that where you can hang tow pieces of garments one above the other without touching each other.

You will attach the piece of wood to the wall with little L shaped brackets that can be found in any home improvement store. Screw on side to the piece of wood and the other into the wall. Now attach the dowels or rods that the clothes will be hanging on. One end to the piece of wood and the other to the wall. Each end can be attached with a simple metal ring that can also be found at any home improvement store. That should take about 10 minutes to do even if you have no idea what you are doing.

The second piece of wood is for the top to make a storage shelf. Measure so you can attach it to the top of what you have just done. One end can be screwed into the top of the first piece of wood. The other end can be attached to the wall with screws. Or you can attach a piece of 2x4 to the wall and let the other end of your new shelf rest on that. This should take about 10 minutes.

20 minutes later you have just doubled your space for hanging clothes and made a shelf on top of that for storing other things. It is easy and fast.

What kind of wood you use is a personal choice. You may want to stain it for aesthetic purposes or not. You can also buy wood that is already painted with holes predrilled in it.

DIY Marine Electronics - Installing a Fishfinder

A big factor in buying a fishfinder is deciding whether to install it yourself or pay someone to do it for you. If you have never installed a fishfinder before this article will give you an overview of the general process. It is not intended to be a step by step guide for any particular fishfinder but it will give you an idea of whether or not you have the right skills to tackle the installation yourself.

Wood Shelving Brackets

Getting Started:
You can purchase fishfinder installation kits or assemble the components yourself using off the shelf products. The kit usually comes with some or all of the following components:

Wood Shelving Brackets

A rubber grommet or water seal (for feeding the wiring from the transducer to the fishfinder display unit) Some extra wire A waterproof battery pack and battery pack bag A foam block (for mounting the transducer in the boat) A heavy duty marine sealant such as Marine Goop or Lexel

Your fishfinder unit may or may not come with an installation kit, but at the very minimum should contain:

Fishfinder display unit A ram mount and mounting bracket (to attach the fishfinder display unit to the boat) Transducer and power cable

1. Mounting the Fishfinder Display unit

Determine where you will mount the fishfinder. Choose a location that makes it easy to reach while navigating the boat, and out of the way of any obstructions. Some installation mounts have back brackets which must be screwed on for stability. This type of mount requires you have access to the part of the boat underneath the mount so you can tighten the screws. You will need to drill holes for the mount and attach it securely. You can then insert the ram mount and fishfinder unit.

2. Installing the fishfinder transducer

There is more than one way to do this and it depends on your preference and on the type of fishfinder you purchased. Mounting a transducer inside the bottom of the boat involves cutting out a hole in a foam block designed to cushion the transducer. You attach the foam block using a good quality sealant and then insert the transducer in the foam block. The sealant must be applied carefully avoiding gaps and bubbles for the transducer to work correctly. An outside mount may require drilling a hole in the boat. You can use a rubber grommet or a waterseal and plenty of sealant to make the hole watertight. Alternatively you can mount the transducer on the the hull, at a point high enough to be in the water but out of the way of rocks or obstacles.

3. Wiring up the Fishfinder to the Transducer.
This step involves routing the power cable from the transducer to the fish finder display unit and may involve drilling another hole to keep the installation neat and tidy. Again, a grommet or waterseal may be needed.

4. The last step is wiring up the unit to the battery pack.

You may need to add additional lengths of wire depending on where you plan to stash the battery pack, the size of your boat etc. The batteries must be sealed in a waterproof container, such as a waterproof battery pack bag.

These are the basic steps required for installing a fishfinder. After you follow the four steps above, you can tidy up any loose wires with tie wraps and tuck them out of site. If you are handy with a drill and pair of wire crimpers it is easy enough to do but if the idea of drilling holes in your boat and crimping battery wires doesn't thrill you it is well worth paying someone to install your fishfinder for you.

Checklist For Designing Victorian Style Kitchens

This brief checklist will enable you to design a more authentic looking Victorian style kitchen, right from the start. Use it on your own or together with a designer.

Wood Shelving Brackets

1. Cabinets to be beaded inset face-framed with inset doors

Wood Shelving Brackets

2. Doors and drawer fronts should be five-piece with flat panels

3. Doors and at least some drawer fronts should have integral or applied molding to the inside edge of the doors stiles and rails

4. Flat panels could have vertical beads, sometimes called a cottage bead or country bead.

5. Consider using simple flat panel slab drawer fronts without any stiles or rails on the top drawers.

6. Hinges should be exposed cast barrel hinges. Finial tipped hinges are more ornate than ball tipped, but either will work.

7. Hinge finish should coordinate with home's doorknob hardware if possible. If the doorknob hardware is polished nickel, use polished nickel cabinet hinges.

8. Knobs and pulls to have ornate detail; finish to match hinges

9. Consider using glass or porcelain knobs on upper cabinets and metal pulls for base cabinets.

10. High quality, polished, cast Butler's latches can also be used to give an authentic look.

11. Drawer boxes to be of solid wood, preferably dovetailed. This isn't necessarily a Victorian detail but it adds to the care for detail overall.

12. Run upper cabinets close to the ceiling and add a decorative crown molding.

13. If the ceiling is nine feet high or more and the upper cabinets run to the ceiling, break up the cabinet frame in two, with two separate doors, with the top door being as close to square as possible.

14. At least some upper cabinets should have glass; beveled glass will give them a very classy look; stained glass will look period appropriate. Obscured 'water glass' will also add a vintage look

15. Use long curved decorative brackets to 'support' upper cabinets

16. End panels and back of island panels could be bead board

17. Back panels on open shelving can also be bead board

18. Counter-tops: consider using a mix of materials. If you are using granite primarily and have a defined bake area, use marble for the bake area. Side counters and islands will look elegant with solid wood tops; use cherry, walnut or mahogany.

19. If you have a side hutch with a counter consider using a solid wood top; mahogany or cherry look

20. Apron front sinks always help to give a kitchen a vintage feel

21. Varying cabinet depths creates more interest: make the sink cabinet shallower than the others so that it is set back below the apron front sink

22. If using a plate rack, use round doweling for dividers

23. If base cabinets are to have legs or decorative kicks, use curves in the design rather than straight lines

24. Suggested cabinet materials:

*Painted maple
*Cherry
*Mahogany
*Vertical grain Douglas Fir
*Quartersawn oak

Timeless American Craftsman Style And Its History

One of the most beloved architectural styles in America is the Craftsman bungalow house plan. The American Arts and Crafts Movement was popularized from the last years of the 19th century through the early years of the 20th century, but continues to be a favorite with architects, designers as well as homeowners. Opposite of the Victorian Age, where excess decoration, ornamentation and accessories often filled a dwelling making it gaudy and uncomfortable, the Craftsman style offered open spaces, a shift toward using natural materials and a simpler interior with less clutter. Many deemed this as a "breath of fresh air" after the complicated Victorian style.

Wood Shelving Brackets

One of the most famous American architects, Frank Lloyd Wright incorporated many Craftsman ideas into his designs. Around the same time, Gustav Stickley began to manufacture Craftsman furniture and publish a magazine called, "The Craftsman" which made Craftsman style southern home floor plans available to people all throughout the United States by mail order. So, regions of the country where subdivisions were yet to be built suddenly had access to new home designs.

Wood Shelving Brackets

The Craftsman Movement also began a shift in how Americans lived. Cities had begun to thrive and now many were moving to the suburbs. Suddenly, homeownership was not out of reach and soon the American Dream. The Craftsman style home gave Americans the opportunity to live simply and comfortably while surrounding themselves with natural materials that rural country life typically offered.

Upper and middle class Americans who still preferred the ornate, decorative style of the Victorian Age, however, did not favor craftsman style and still preferred their luxury mansion floor plans. But, the common middle class man who was unable to afford a home could now purchase a Craftsman house plan since its materials were mass-produced. Craftsman style homes typically incorporated nature into the design and were less expensive to build, while also being easy to maintain. It was the perfect combination for the first-time homeowner!

There are quite a few characteristics that a Craftsman home includes. Craftsman homes are constructed of wood, stone and/or stucco, have low pitched roof lines, wide eaves with triangular brackets, exposed roof rafters, and numerous windows. These houses all usually come with large front porches with thick square or round columns, stone porch supports and stone chimneys. The interior of the homes have open floor plans with few hallways, interior exposed beamed ceilings, dark wood wainscoting and moldings, built-in seating and lots of cabinets and shelving.
