Consider this before installing steam shower

Q. I want to add a steam unit to our master bathroom shower stall . Outside of having the steam unit installed , are there any other issues that we need to think about when adding a steam shower to a bathroom? A. The main issue is dealing with the extra steam. You’ll be generating a lot of steam that needs be contained, enjoyed and then removed from the bathroom. Also, permits need to be pulled and all local codes followed. Basically, here are a few things to consider: First, look into installing a special steam enclosure shower door in place of your current shower door or curtain. Steam shower doors have an extra glass panel above and across the top of the door to help contain the steam. For odd shower sizes , you may need custom glass work . Second, enjoy the experience with a removable shower seat you can easily place inside the stall when needed. Finally, look into increasing the size of your bathroom exhaust fan , or add a second exhaust fan to help remove the extra moisture...

Ace of Space: Storage Tips for Tiny Bathrooms

Image
Bathrooms are one of the most private spaces in a home. Yet it's also an area shared by friends, family members and acquaintances. With these two scenarios in mind, keeping your bathroom organized presents a special challenge in tiny bathrooms. Here are a few tips to get you started: 1. A few good shelves Using vertical space in tiny bathrooms can make a huge difference. Consider investing in a few shelves. Before installing shelves, look through your bathroom for space that hasn't been utilized. For example, you might have a small area under your bathroom sink that would be perfect for a small storage unit or self. Consider keeping some surfaces open to allow you and guests to set items down like reading glasses or jewelry while washing up. 2. Purchase a hanging shower-caddy A lot of showers don't have built in storage space, so renters end up with a lot of bottles sitting on the corner of the tub or on the shower floor. If this is the case, say no to bottle clutter and ...

Bathing With Your Baby | What to Expect

Image
It can be more than okay to bathe with your baby! For starters, what better way to shower your little one with love and boost bonding than to cuddle skin-to-skin? Bathing your baby in a tub of warm water can also soothe a crying jag: Your baby will probably calm down as she feels your body against hers, along with the warm water and change of scenery. Another plus to bathing with your baby? You’re bound to get a sense of well-being, and that’s sure to wash over her. Some moms enjoy breastfeeding in the bath since the warm water can help with the letdown of milk. And taking a bath with your baby can even be a time-saver: After you’ve washed her (and snuck in a snuggle or two), hand her off to your partner and finish up with a little private tub-time. Of course, bathing with a baby is a whole different ball game from sudsing up solo. Some things to keep in mind: Wait until she’s old enough. Don’t submerge your baby in water until her umbilical cord drops off and her navel has healed. ...

PIC: This Neighbour's Garden In Cork Is Straight Outta Father Ted And People Are Freaking Out

Image
We've seen some pretty random house for sale listings in our time (moment of silence for the Clondalkin Marilyn Monroe gaff ), but a house in Cork may have just topped the list. Spotted by Denise O'Donoghue on Twitter, it's not the actual house for sale that has so many people freaking out. At first glance, No.2 Hill Terrace in Bandon, Cork, seems pretty normal. A three-bed, two-bath home with the following ameneties seems pretty grand for €144,000... Entrance Hall, Sitting Room, Family Room/Dining Room, Kitchen, Shower Room. Three bedrooms, Family Bathroom .  Outside: On-street parking, west- facing rear garden set in lawn. So far, so normal right? Let's just revisit the:  Outside: On-street parking, west- facing rear garden set in lawn. This. GARDEN. Holy shit (extreme emphasis on  holy.) While the house itself's garden is grand, it's the next door neighbours garden that has us wondering if Mrs.Doyle from  Father Ted  is in fact a real person and has moved...

Well, braces yourselves: Liz Earle is launching their amazing Indulgent Bath and Body range in March 2014 and I was lucky enough to get my hands on the lovely Vanilla and Saffron creamy shower nectar and silky body lotion .

9 Space-Saving Ideas for Your Small Bathroom

Image
Photo: Björn Wallander In many cases, baths are already among the smallest rooms in a home—so what do you do when yours is especially petite? For help maximizing your space, we turned to Manhattan- based interior designer Nick Olsen . Olsen originally burst onto the scene as a blog darling known for imbuing small spaces with grandeur, wit, and the kind of high-end design once reserved only for those with serious square footage. Though these days Olsen's services are coveted by clients with space to spare (case in point: the Brooklyn brownstone seen in the August 2015 issue of Architectural Digest ), his skills for decorating tight spots are as bright as ever. Read on for his smart moves on getting more space in the bath—as well as a couple of trompe l'oeil tips on making the room look larger, against all odds.

3 Week Old Baby Development

Must-Knows Tricks to Calm Baby In the first few weeks, the older your little one gets, the more she'll cry, peaking around 6 weeks old. While fussing and wailing is totally normal for babies -- think of it as your little one's only way of telling you how she feels -- it can be super stressful for you, particularly if you're not sure how to soothe her. In a quiet moment, make a master list of potential solutions, such as offering a pacifier, massaging her belly or back, swaddling her, popping her in the baby swing, changing her diaper, checking for clothing irritations, or taking her for a car ride. When your little one starts up again, you'll have an arsenal of antiwail weapons at your disposal. But sometimes babies just need to cry as a way to vent their out-of-control emotions when they're feeling overstimulated or overtired; it might actually help them calm themselves down. If your baby isn't hungry, doesn't have a dirty diaper, and doesn't have any o...

How do you repair Moen bathroom faucets?

Assemble the tools necessary for faucet repair, including a screwdriver, Allen wrench, and slip joint pliers . You also need o-ring seals and a faucet repair kit . Determine the Moen model number and acquire the appropriate replacement parts before beginning the job. If the faucet leaks due to a damaged o-ring, replace the cartridge; replace both cartridges on a two-handle faucet. Remove the faucet handle cap and use the Allen wrench to detach the faucet handle. Next, unscrew and remove the dome assembly, handle adapter and pivot stop. Use the slip joint pliers to remove the handle nut, and then pry the brass retainer clip loose with a screwdriver. Make special note of the cartridge's orientation; ensure that the replacement part is oriented the same way. Twist the spanner cap over the old cartridge to work it free, and put the new cartridge in its place. Before reassembling the fixture, clear away any mineral deposits on the old parts using a solution of vinegar and water....

Your Embarrassing Cleaning Questions, Answered

Keeping your home clean can often be more than you bargained for. Sometimes the cat pees on the rug, you find roaches in your kitchen, or your shower falls victim to surprise mold spores . Whether you're dealing with pesky pests or stubborn stains , here's how to solve those common—but kind of gross—cleaning problems, and the answers to household questions you might be too afraid to ask. Smells and Stains Q: How do you get sweat stains out of clothes? Soaking the stains in a mixture of equal parts water and lemon juice before putting your clothes in the wash should take care of it. Q: How do you remove blood stains? If the blood is fresh and hasn't dried yet, soak (or blot with a sponge or cloth) the stain immediately in cold water. For stains that are harder to get out, pour on hydrogen peroxide, wipe away the foam, and repeat until the stain is gone. If the blood is dry, you can use toothpaste on clothes and linens, or meat tenderizer—the enzymes help break down bl...
