Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner
Comments (5)I have to sound in on this one. I got it when it first came out and love it. We installed a new tiny shower stall with doors (which has been our only bath during a remodel) and so far it is doing a wonderful job in helping to keep the soap scum residue off. I wonder if the "cleaner" is not just a chemical to reduce the viscosity of the water/soap scum, so it does not dry in a way to adhere to the doors. There is sometimes a residue left, but I wipe it off easily after the doors have dried and I am walking though to pick up towels for laundry. I give it a wipe with a used washcloth and go on my way. From my persective, most of the residue is probably washed down when we turn the water on and wait for it to heat up for the next shower. And by the time I step in and scatter water throughout the rest of the stall, everything else is thoroughly "rinsed" before I ever touch it. If there is some residual left on some container as I touch it, well, I am in the middle of taking a shower, it will be rinsed off within 60 seconds. I know it is new technology, but new can be good. (Good ol' fashioned lye was not exactly a environmentally safe product.) I am sure I am also spending more for the product than other cleaners, but what it saves me in time and vigilance in a bathroom that will eventually be used by teenagers, it is well worth it. No, I do not work for the company, grin, I am just trying to be creative in helping hubby and kids keep things clean. Sometimes we expect them to think, and clean, like women and mothers....See MoreIs This The Cutest.Tile.Ever??? Bubbles...
Comments (22)We used a bubble tile in our Dynasty kitchen vignette. It's by Emser, and comes in a whole host of colors. It's not as playful as the other, but it's easier integrated.

Comments (6)Are you planning on hiring a person of design talent? First this isn't a bubble diagram. Secondly, you have it measured out, but haven't accounted for the width of any walls. Why are you wanting angled rooms? They create odd spaces and you actually wind up with less space than squared off rooms. Yes an 8' x 8' bedroom is too small. Once you add a closet to the 8' x 8' bedroom, it is now only 6' x 8'. Add a bed to the room which could only go against the 8' wall and your 6' space to walk is only 33" wide. (A twin bed is 39" wide.) I would venture to say a 9' x 10' bedroom is also too small because once you add a closet to that 9' x 10' bedroom, the bedroom is only 7' x 10' or 9' x 8'. Try blocking that space off in a room with tape and then add in a twin bed which is 39" x 75". Your laundry room is too small. A washer/dryer will stick out from the wall a minimum of 27". This means your actual area to open the doors of the W/D and walking area if you put the W/D on the bathroom wall side will be 33". That's too narrow. If you put them along the outside wall, it can work, but if you're planning on putting a sink in the room, it won't for the same reason again. Your master you have as 12' x 18' which will create a very narrow almost tunnel like room. What do you plan to do with all the extra space at the foot of the bed? Additionally you have a very small master closet in such a large room. The upstairs open space opposite the stairs is wasted space. Your downstairs guest room is 9' x 9'. Sorry but that's too small for anything but a full size bed, maybe. And you have a downstairs guest room without a shower? Are your guests expected to walk upstairs to shower? Plus the room is too small. Your hallway from the mudroom is way too large and wastes space with its angles. It's larger than the guest room!!! Your mudroom is only allowing 30" between to walk? In the kitchen 3' between island and perimeter counters is not enough space. For a one person kitchen the minimum should be 42". For a kitchen where multiple people will be helping, you want 48" and that's counter edge to counter edge, not cabinet to cabinet. My suggestion to you would be to start creating idea books of what you like for a house. Make a list of must haves, nice to haves and if I had unlimited funds, I'd want to have. If rooms need to be next to one another, write that down. Then go find yourself a person of design talent who's been doing this for years and understands room sizes, etc....See MoreBeginning Bubble Diagram for a Custom Home
Comments (22)Studio of 1 wrote, "...I'm curious why bedrooms should avoid early morning sunlight. Early morning seems precisely the time that bedrooms should receive sunlight. Bedrooms aren't really used in the daytime at any other time. And morning sun helps get your day going; helps regulate your sleep cycle. That sort of thing...." It all depends on the individual and the family. Many people want to be able to sleep as late as they want and not be awakened by early morning sunlight. Other folks, following your comments, like early morning sun and getting going in the early morning. So, there's no one "universal rule" about bedroom orientation and light. But it's always important to ask and to have a significant role in the orientation and organization of a custom home design....See Moremamapinky0
