I didn’t get a lot executed on the bed room this weekend as a result of my candy little cat Felicity had a little bit of a medical emergency that resulted in some very unusual conduct and sounds that I’ve by no means seen or heard from her within the seven years she’s been with us. And as cats do after they’re sick or not feeling nicely, she discovered a hiding spot to get some solitude. I spent hours of my weekend looking out each nook and cranny of this home, flashlight in hand and calling her identify, however I couldn’t discover her. I searched from one finish of the home to the opposite about 5 instances on Friday, and nothing. I repeated that not less than ten instances on Saturday, and nothing.
Earlier than I went to mattress on Saturday evening, I arrange a motion-sensing digicam within the doorway between my studio and the breakfast room in order that I’d be notified on my cellphone if and when she walked by. So when she lastly emerged at 10:30pm on Saturday evening, I scooped her up and headed to the emergency vet clinic. We didn’t depart the clinic till 2:30am, after which I didn’t get to mattress till after 3:00am. Lengthy story quick, she’s doing significantly better now, however what they discovered is that she had a mouth harm that was inflicting her extreme ache when she tried to eat or drink. We do not know what induced this mouth harm, however they gave her some ache meds and antibiotics, and she or he appears to be on the mend now. She hasn’t gone again into hiding since we’ve been again, in order that’s an excellent signal.
All of that to say that whereas I did make some progress on the bed room, I didn’t get something really completed to share with you immediately. However my general “to do” record for ending the bed room and lobby is getting shorter, and I’ve excessive hopes that I’ll be capable to get each areas completed by the top of this month. It would really feel so good to get these initiatives completed and be capable to transfer on to the subsequent one!
One merchandise I’m contemplating including to my “to do” record for the bed room is changing the ceiling fan within the room. I do know ceiling followers aren’t fairly, however we do reside in central Texas. And whereas I’ve saved ceiling followers out of our different rooms, a ceiling fan in a bed room is an absolute must-have merchandise for us. It does sort of spoil the aesthetic, although. I’m conscious of that.
Over the past 12 months or so, a number of folks have really helpful that I look into Fandeliers. These are lights fixtures that seem like a chandelier but additionally have a fan covertly included within the design. A few of them have retractable blades. Others have very small blades which are hidden within the design of the sunshine fixture.
I had by no means given them a lot of an opportunity as a result of, to be sincere, I had by no means seen one which I really favored. However over the weekend, I made a decision to provide them a severe look and see if there was something on the market that may really work in our bed room. This time, I really did discover some that I like.
In all probability my favourite one is that this one (affiliate hyperlink). I do not know if I received the dimensions proper, however I like the form, the gold accents, and the pure fibers of the shade.
I additionally like this tiered rattan model (affiliate hyperlink). That is the one one which I discovered (and like) that will give some distinction to with the ceiling.
This one is a quite simple design (affiliate hyperlink) nevertheless it’s a Hunter, which is a well known ceiling fan model, so I like that. It’s additionally the costliest choice of those I like.
And naturally, I needed to embrace this flower choice (affiliate hyperlink) as a result of…nicely…I’m me, and I like flowers. However I believe that is in all probability a greater match for an additional room and never our bed room.
So there are undoubtedly some choices that I like, and I may see a few of these working very well in our bed room. However my fundamental query is that this. Do these really work? I’m so used to having a extremely highly effective ceiling fan that circulates plenty of air. I simply can’t think about these being comparable for the reason that blades are enclosed in shades. In my thoughts, I can’t think about them circulating as a lot air as a typical ceiling fan. So when you’ve got expertise utilizing a fandelier, particularly in a bed room, I’d like to know your ideas. Have you ever been proud of it? I’ve spent plenty of time studying buyer critiques on all of those, and though they’re all rated 4.1 stars or larger, I simply have a tough time trusting that we’d be proud of it after having such a robust ceiling fan in our bed room.
