The Shade Store's Zach Gibbs on window treatments | Home Front

Great question! I'd have to start with probably the most exciting thing that's happened in window treatments in quite a while- and thats motorization! With a touch of a button you can control your entire home- so why not window treatments? Whats most exciting (at least for TSS) is a new system that we developed that is a battery motor (meaning you don't have to rip open your walls/get an electrician involved), its quiet, it can handle enormous sizes , the batteries are re chargeable (you're not changing out AA batteries every few weeks) and last but not least, its affordable! We wanted to offer a motor system for all product categories that is completely user friendly ...its quite impressive- be sure to check it out! Aside from that- as we say- simple always sells. Whites/beiges/grays are what we sell the most here at TSS..this approach allows one to add the accents through furniture, paint, carpeting, accessories...However, we're seeing our patterns lately have a t...

I f, like me, you have an aversion to theme parks, packaged tours, and Center Parcs, but are nonetheless charged with finding a short UK break to entertain young children , the word “glamping” has a superficial appeal. Re- establishing primeval bonds with family and nature in a fairytale world without Facebook, Netflix or fast food: what’s not to like? But for the undecided, a moment’s reflection cautions that it cannot all be running through sunny meadows of wild flowers and gathering around fairylit bell tents as dusk approaches. It will rain, won’t it? We’ll be smelly and miserable. We’ll drown in mud, the children won’t sleep and we will be bored to death in the evenings, won’t we? All glamping is not created equal A master in this field is committed eco- host Edmund Colville . A couple of hours’ drive north of London, in a site of Special Scientific Interest near Swaffham and Fakenham, lies West Lexham , Colville’s 21-acre patch of pastoral Norfolk . Centred round a substantia...

Looking for a Bed-and-Breakfast?

Natives know where to go for a real San Francisco experience : the city's neighborhoods. What better way to make family and friends comfortable than to have them stay close by in one of Noe Valley's guesthouses. While many local guesthouses and bed-and-breakfasts have been hit by the current economic slump --and by the competition from a drop in downtown hotel prices --the good news is guests no longer have to book six months in advance and can sometimes negotiate a lower room rate . Still, most guesthouses report business is steady, at least on the weekends. In Noe Valley we are fortunate to have a mix of lodgings that serve a wide range of needs. You can find a cottage with handicapped access for grandparents, several places that welcome children, or a quiet room in a house, for a friend. In this survey, which updates our B&B roundups in the June 1997 and May 1999 issues, the Voice uncovered a variety of hospitality styles: a European- style tourist home , a fully furn...
