PATRIOTIC EAGLE


There's no better time to show patriotism than today, when the country is fighting to stay afloat amidst a sinking economy. When everyone is tightening belts, keeping a grip on one's purse, and worrying about a dark future, shouldn't we be holding each other's hands instead of pulling each other down?

Patriotic awareness products bearing the American flag are great ways to bring out our loyalty to the land we call our own. America has been there for us in the past, and it needs our confidence today, more than ever, to see it through its dark times. With the elections coming up, it's our cue to choose wisely and to choose well and to stand by this decision.

Remind everyone of his or her duty as citizens of the United States with promotional pillows, mugs, banners, and stress balls bearing the stars and stripes. The patriotic-themed calendar, available in wall and magnetic versions, is a daily reminder of our allegiance, 365 days a year. Shops holding a sale in celebration of Fourth of July or any other national holiday would find the flag bag a timely packaging item to inspire patriotism.

The Uncle Sam hat and Patriot Mad Cap stress balls are perfect giveaways for election campaigns, as are the Statue of Liberty, US Capitol, and the Bald Eagle. Pep rallies, regardless of conservative or liberal leanings, will find that patriotic awareness products such as promotional megaphones, clappers, stadium cups, mugs, and water bottles serve their purpose well. Custom picture frames, executive folding umbrellas, and the flag snuggle pens are among the many ways to thank supporters after election day.

Veterans Day and Fourth of July are great occasions to use patriotic awareness products, as is Thanksgiving, when we all can afford to look back at our roots and express gratitude for how far our people have come in their quest for freedom.

Veterans Day, especially, is the perfect opportunity to campaign for added support for ex-servicemen who await their claims and remunerations for serving the country. Stress balls, T-shirts, mugs, stickers, and decals imprinted with Old Glory are suitable patriotic awareness products.

Control of natural light especially in work areas like the kitchen is particularly important. Too much of a good thing can be bad, and, while natural light is always valued in the kitchen, too much or too reflective of it can be distracting. Window coverings are the answer, both to control natural light, and to accomplish a lot of other things besides: limit summer heat gain and winter heat loss, limit outside view of the inside, screen off unpleasant view, and splash color and texture onto your kitchen.

One way to do this is through the use of curtains. One drawback of curtains, however, is that if you have it, at least one other in your place is bound to have it too, that alone is sometimes enough to spook some people into not having curtains at all.

But guess what. You actually can have your one-of-a-kind curtain by making your own one-of-a-kind painted -fabric curtains. Here's how.

Prepare the Fabric Wash the fabric without using fabric softener. This will remove any sizing from the fabric. Hang to dry, after which press the fabric to remove any wrinkles. Cut the Fabric to Measurements Measure off your windows. You might want your curtains to hang past the seal, so provide for that in your measurements. Cut the individual panels of your curtains according to your measurements.

About Fabric Painting Here are a few things you need to know about fabric painting. Fabrics can be painted to create whatever designs you want your curtains to take, which, at the same time, match your overall kitchen décor. Use only fabric paints. This will ensure a permanent painted design, and, at the same time, avoid the stiffness when you use any other kind of paint. When painting the fabric, remember not to apply too much paint, again to avoid the stiffness. You know you've got it just about right when you could see the texture of the fabric through the paint. You may also use craft acrylic paints, but with textile medium added. The textile medium allows the paint to seep into the fibers of the fabric resulting in permanent, color-fast, and immensely washable designs.

How to Paint on Fabric Mix craft acrylic paint with textile medium. Follow the mixing ration specified by the manufacturer. You might instead want to use a fabric paint; that way, you don't have to worry about any mixing. Apply the paint to the fabric. Allow to dry for 24 hours. Heat-set by pressing the fabric under a press cloth.

Fabric Painting Techniques Guided designs - Using masking tape, you can paint stripes, plaids, and other geometric patterns.

Swirled designs - Using artists' brushes, texture rollers, and paint pads, you can decorate your fabric with bold brush strokes. You might want to use metallic paints for added drama.

Stamped designs - Here, many of the things you have around the house can become your stamp design: fork tines, Junior's alphabet block, egg beater.

Stenciled designs - The design is transferred onto the fabric using a stencil brush and the stippling method. Consider a lighthouse design to repeat in your kitchen the ambiance created by the nautical wall sculptures or the ocean wall hangings in your living room.

Sponge painting - Use only a sea sponge to dab onto the fabric.

Complete your curtains Now that you have your one-of-a kind fabric, all you need to do now is to complete the base and to shirr the header, and voila, you have your unique curtains.

The world of window treatments goes beyond curtains and blinds. There are entire lines of accessories. If you thought the only additions to your rooms that window treatments made were some blinds for privacy and a flashy fabric to add visual appeal, then you'll enjoy this article! There is an entire line of accessories for curtains that anyone trying to dress up a room with some inexpensive techniques should know about.

Curtain Tie Backs

Do you ever walk into a room and notice the beautiful swoop of curtains that are open and tied back? If you're looking to create this elegant touch with your curtains, you have a few different options. Thick cording with tassel ends tends to be popular tie back. You can also buy various different hooks that mount on the wall. Some hooks are larger, intended to hold the entire curtain panel back on its own while others are smaller and meant to hold the curtain tie in place.

Pulls

You can also buy decorative knobs to attach to the end of your blind pulls. These add a touch of class to the functional style of blinds or any other curtains that are controlled with a pull. There are also wrought iron draw rods. Instead of a string, rope or chain, these pull rods are solid. They are the most unique of the pulls and can really catch the eye.

Trimmings

If you're looking for curtains to dress up a room and don't want something as plain as a solid fabric, or as flashy as a floral or pattern, trimmings might be the answer for you. You can have trimmings added to the edge of your curtains. Trimmings can be as simple as a braided or cord edge or as elaborate as tasseled or bobbled fringe. This is a simple decorating option that I believe is often overlooked.

Coordinating Options

Many places offer services that will make decorative throw pillows or head boards to match your curtain choice. This is a nice thoughtful touch to any room. If you've found that fabric that gives a room that special something that makes people stop and compliment your savvy decorating eye, than why not have that same fabric turned into some pillows or a table runner? This is a fantastic way tie a room together with consistent flow.

The designers have taken a long hard look at modern curtain designs to bring style and colour into the 21st century. Modern living requires curtains which are easy to maintain, incorporate the latest in-trend colours and above all look elegant an stylish in different interior room designs.

Curtains have become very popular. They are so easy to hang, it's quite literally just a matter of using either a metal or wooden curtain pole and sliding them on.!

This style of curtain is easy to draw across at night and swish back in the mornings! They can be drawn back in their entirety or swept back and held in place with coordinating or contrasting tie-backs. Curtains which have metal effect look striking when hung from a metal curtain pole. One of the great advantage of using them is that they always look and retain their stylish appearance, open or closed.

Curtains which can be hung from poles are widely available in different weights of fabrics. From the finest voiles and silks to natural cotton or man-made blends. The key thing is to make sure you have the right size diameter curtain pole.

The finer and lighter the curtain fabric the small the diameter of pole can be used. As the curtain fabric becomes heavier the larger the diameter of pole needs to be.

Be careful when choosing metal effect poles rather than actual metal; these imitation metal poles are usually plastic with a metal effect paint finish and are not very robust! If you try and hang medium or heavy weight curtains from them, they will simply bend! Spoiling the whole sleek and streamlined appearance.

From a maintenance view curtains are so simple to take down launder or take to the cleaners-depending on the fabric, follow the manufacturers' guidelines- and re-hang. They offer clean and modern lifestyles an easy, yet very effective, window dressing.

A range of both traditional and contemporary curtain pole finials can make a huge impact to the sense of cohesion to a room. Traditional wooden poles usually have wooden finials which can be a simple round shape or more elaborate carved designs such as acorns. Metal finials with wonderful twisted metal patterns offer a modern interior flair. The latest finial designs are made from glass which incorporate smokey swirls and bubbles of complimentary coloured glass to offer panache and a striking look.

For more traditional style interiors curtains which have an elegant 3 inch header are more in keeping with the overall appearance of a room. Current interior design trends typically have full length curtains-those which reach the floor. When windows are dressed only to the sill of the window the designers tend to use blinds rather than curtains, or use a combination of the two.

Old style grand interiors typically have beautiful full length curtains with coordinating or contrasting fabrics covered pelmets, swags and tails, elaborate goblet or pinch pleat headings. These heading variations are ideal for heavy weight curtain fabrics as they enable the fabric to retain the elegance of the pleating effects they offer. Sweeping these styles of curtains back from the centre and keeping them in place with traditional tassel tie-backs adds to their flamboyance.
