Choosing the Right Window for Your Kitchen or Bath Remodel (BPT) - Kitchens and bathrooms are not only two of the most highly used rooms in your home, they’re also two of the most popular rooms to renovate, accord- ing to home style experts and Remodeling Magazine’s annual Cost vs. Value Report. With any kitchen or bath renovation, there are many aspects to consider - cabinets, counters, floors, etc. And whether you’re making small updates or completely gutting the room, make sure to include window replacement in your list of must-haves. How can new windows benefit a room? With a style that fits your personality, the right window provides natural light and ventilation to help create a beautiful, functional and comfortable living space. Keep three key elements in mind when choosing a window for your kitchen or bath: Choose a window style with function in mind Kitchen windows are often placed above counters or sinks, while bathroom windows tend to be located above tubs, beside showers or above bathroom counters. The placement of these windows can sometimes make them hard to reach, so choosing a window style that’s easy to open and close is a must. Sliding windows or casement windows - which crank open and closed - are good options for hard-to-reach areas like above a counter or sink.

Wowser Schnauzers

Hello, I’m a 3-year old, female purebred Miniature Schnauzer named Reese. One night when I was out looking for adventure I injured my paw and fractured two teeth – bad idea. Next thing I knew I was captured and taken to a shelter and assigned a bed in their medical building. It was only a soft tissue injury that healed quickly but now I need a home. No one was interested when I was at the shelter but then I definitely was not a pretty sight. I was really a stinky, matted mess with a goofy smile so it’s no surprise that no one wanted to adopt me. After being rescued I had a dental and my damaged teeth – one was an upper canine – were removed. Then it was off to the groomer where I was bathed and shaved down a bit. I am happy to say I am now 16 pounds of beauty in the form of a black and silver girl with a natural, plume of a tail. I get along great with dogs and love people so please come to adoptions and ask for Reese. If you are interested in Reese, please email [email protected] for more Teresa information. Swanee We are looking for volunteers to help They call me Percy but when I arrived at weighs 11 pounds.
