Although perhaps a bit more expensive than the metal coat racks, they can be pieces of art in themselves. Just like any other piece of , they can become family heirlooms to pass down, and can add a touch of class to any room. This also goes for wall mounted wall coat racks, although perhaps traditionally, this is most thought of in terms of the freestanding coat rack. Some include extra perks, like built-in benches or mirrors. And who can deny the beauty of a piece of wooden furniture? Unlike a metal coat rack, simply staining or applying a coat of clear varnish to a wooden coat rack is all one needs to let the natural beauty shine through. This is a benefit not available in metal coat racks.

Where does one find wooden coat racks? Well, start at your , or do a search on the online; do your homework first, and see if a local store you know of carries coat racks, or give the store a call to see if it does. Many stores like also carry them, which, of course, can also be found online. You can also try your local , and some larger Wal-Marts also carry them.

Take care of your wooden coat rack just as you would any other piece of wooden furniture. A bit of furniture polish once in awhile will help keep it in good shape, to pass on to the next generation if you so choose.

If you're environmentally conscious, remember, too, that a wooden coat rack is made from completely renewable materials, whereas a metal coat rack is made from materials that are not easily produced and harder on the environment than the tree(s) used to produce the materials for a wooden coat rack. Additionally, given the proper care, a wooden coat rack can easily last longer than a comparable metal one, because it cannot rust. Indeed, with a little care, you can easily pass down your wooden coat rack just as you will that are more your grandmother used.

However, remember as well that if you should need to dispose of a wooden coat rack, it is entirely biodegradable. This is not true of metal coat racks. This is because although they rust, they take much longer to actually disintegrate.

So for a touch of class, go for a wooden coat rack versus a metal one. It may cost you a little bit more in the short run, but you'll have a piece of value that will last you for generations to come.

Considering that Lewis and Clark embarked upon their expedition while Mr. Jefferson was President, it is certain that the coat rack existed as a tool well before they reached the Pacific Ocean.

We don't know who invented the coat rack, but historically, it has been a very handy option, since before the turn of last century, most houses were built with limited closet space. were usually stored in trunks, and were made for use of for hanging clothes. Armoires were also often used, but were a much more ornate and heavier option than were easy to move wall model coat racks and freestanding coat racks. They were also much more expensive and took up much more space.

Because of their ease of use and versatility, coat racks are making a comeback. They are ideal for small spaces, such as the studio apartment, and are much more versatile than built-in closets. They are also a much more inexpensive option, since the logistical and financial considerations of installing closets can be many, especially in older houses that traditionally do not have them. It's a relatively simple matter to install a , since all you need is readily available wall space. No additional floor space is required.



Freestanding coat racks offer the option of inexpensive storage with easy mobility, and you can change locations as often as you need to. Although they take up more space than wall coat racks, they do not require that you be handy with tools. However, if you're not handy with tools but you want something that will not take up additional floor space, look for coat racks specifically designed to hang over the backs of doors. This will provide you additional storage without either having to install a wall coat rack or use a valuable floor space to utilize our freestanding coat rack.

But in the summer, the coat rack can also be a place of storage for seasonal items of clothing. Once again, the amount of space you can devote to a coat rack and your particular needs as a household will determine what type of storage area will be best.

Coat racks can be a useful addition to every home. The many varieties and individual places of storage can be chosen based on your household's particular needs. You won't have to throw coats on the bed when guests come over and your children and their friends will have a central location for their shoes and jackets.Megan Cherry writes for http://www.pegandrail.com If you are looking for a high quality well made coat rack step in and check us out, we manufacture a complete line of wall mounted coat racks from a shaker peg style coat rack to a modern wall coat rack with brass hooks or satin nickel for the brushed stainless steel look we even have a very modern looking hand rub white lacquer coat racks.]]> If You Need To Save Space, Go With Wall Mounted Coat Racks http://www.artwoo.com/article/if-you-need-to-save-space-go-with-wall-mounted-coat-racks http://www.artwoo.com/article/if-you-need-to-save-space-go-with-wall-mounted-coat-racks#comments Mon, 23 Apr 2007 12:45:03 +0000 wall mounted coat rackssearch engine googlecoat rackelectric screwdriverfloor spaceshelvingmodels http://www.artwoo.com/article/if-you-need-to-save-space-go-with-wall-mounted-coat-racks wall mounted s

Wall mounted coat racks can also go in any space that's wide enough for the coat rack that you want to use and that has stud support. For instance, a small wall mounted coat rack is perfect for above a child's desk, because it has hooks from which to hang often used but easily lost tools like scissors.

Don't despair--there are simple ways to clean up and organize your garage. Roll up your sleeves and dedicate at least an entire weekend to this project. You'll be glad that you did. Once the garage space is organized, you will be better able to maintain it and get the most use out of it.

There are really only two steps to reclaiming your garage: cleaning out the clutter and organizing the useful things. For the clean up part, you need to sift through every item in the garage and put it into one of three piles: save, give away or throw away. This step of the process may take the longest, but once you decide what things are truly important to you, there will be a strong motivation to have access to these items.

For the organizing part of this task, you may need to buy shelving, a coat rack or some cubicle-. Once you have decided on what to keep, you will then put those things in their appropriate areas. The shelves and the cubicles can store an assortment of items, from gardening tools to seed packets to bicycle .

A coat rack is also an interesting and often overlooked item in garage organization. Coat racks are very versatile and do a lot more than hang up coats and jackets. Many come with storage space that can be very useful in the garage. Your and shoes can be stored there. If you choose a coat rack with a bench, that becomes an ideal place to take off your before going into the house.

Of course, the pegs on the coat rack can be used to hang up your coat. Perhaps you have a yard jacket, one that you use when you putter around in the garden or rake leaves. Hang it in the garage so you will have it ready for the next time you need it. or gloves and hats can be kept here as well.

Some people use their garages as an art studio. If you dabble in oil painting, the coat rack can hold your smock and other supplies. If you like to take on some woodworking projects, put your safety goggles and gloves on the coat rack so you will never have to search for them again.

Depending on the space you have, coat racks can be freestanding or wall mounted. Either way, they are a very useful addition to your garage space and will help you keep things organized. Coat racks are made from a variety of materials, from metal to wood so you have many choices to consider.

Coat racks can help you gain control of your garage space by storing important items and making them more accessible to you. So, the next time you open that garage door, you won't hold your breath in fear; instead, you will smile at how nicely organized everything looks.Megan Cherry writes for http://www.pegandrail.com If you are looking for a high quality well made coat rack step in and check us out, we manufacture a complete line of wall mounted coat racks from a shaker peg style coat rack to a modern wood coat racks with brass hooks or satin nickel for the brushed stainless steel look we even have a very modern looking hand rub white lacquer coat racks to go along with our line of Oak, cherry and Maple wall coat racks, we can even manufacture you a custom size coat rack or even ship you a coat rack that is unfinished.]]> Preserving The Show Dog Shih Tzu's Coat http://www.artwoo.com/article/preserving-the-show-dog-shih-tzus-coat http://www.artwoo.com/article/preserving-the-show-dog-shih-tzus-coat#comments Wed, 29 Nov 2006 00:27:10 +0000 shih tzu coatpet shih tzushih tzusshow dogslead a normal lifecoconut oilbad hair http://www.artwoo.com/article/preserving-the-show-dog-shih-tzus-coat lead a normal life. For those who do allow their show Shih Tzu do lead a normal life keeping the coat glamorous requires a lot of extra effort, and much more grooming than for the .

is considered helpful as a means of preserving the coat of a show dog Shih Tzu. If you do oil the show dog you must remove the oil completely before each show. If you do not remove all the oil the coat appear limp and feel wrong. It can also be uncomfortable to be around a Shih Tzu that has been oiled. There are good oils on the market, however, that do not have this effect on the coat and it may be worth trying them if the Shih Tzu's coat seems to need it. Wrapping the coat in tissue paper protects the Shih Tzu's coat, but you lose some of the pleasure of seeing your dog in full coat with his hair flowing as he moves. I do think this is a beautiful, beautiful sight of the show dog Shih Tzu. The tissue wrapping sort of reminds me of the days when women ran around the house for house with their hair in curlers.

Probably the best thing to do if you are just starting out taking care of your Shih Tzu show dog's coat is to experiment with different methods of preserving the coat until you find what works best for your dog. Much the same type of procedures a pet owner must go through, although a lot more intense and time consuming as the Shih Tzu show do requires so much more in the way of grooming.

One thing is for certain if you start out with "" it is virtually impossible to make it good enough for the show ring. When purchasing your show potential Shih Tzu it is wise to study the lines to find out which have good hair in their genes. This way you can just continue to keep it looking good.

The topknot and whiskers also need very special attention on the show dog Shih Tzu. The white whiskers on a parti-coloured Shih Tzu must be really, really white to look good. It seems this is especially true for the black and white Shih Tzu.

Some older methods of keeping the whiskers white was to wash them at least once a day with a solution of boracic powder, a teaspoon to a pint of water. This mixture is wiped into the whiskers, being careful to get none in the eyes and then rinsed away. One of the keys to keeping whiskers white is above all to dry them immediately and keep them dry. An older method of drying them was to work in some fuller's earth or talcum powder, brushing this out and repeating until the hair was absolutely dry. If you allow the Shih Tzu to dry his own whiskers he will rub and rub until dry doing nothing but harm to the length of the coat. Another problem you run into with all this washing is that the hair becomes dry and brittle. You will need to dress the whiskers with a little coat conditioner from time to time.

A method of preserving the hair of the topknot is to use several bands along the length of the hair to hold it to the back of the head. You can also plait the hair to achieve the same purpose. Use neither of these methods just before a show as both methods will cause kinks in the coat of which you do not want.

It is always wise to review the rules of the American Kennel Club about the use of oils and conditioners on the coat of a show dog. Any substance used to alter the natural color, texture or body of the coat is usually prohibited. Author: Connie Limon. I raise Shih Tzu Puppies for Sale.

When the show dog judge is finished going over the Shih Tzu completely he might step away from the Shih Tzu and give it a final over-all side view look. This side view look helps a Shih Tzu show dog judge keep a complete picture in his mind that he will compare with the next Shih Tzu that is put up on the table.

If you are handling your Shih Tzu yourself this last look is highly important. You should remember to keep your Shih Tzu on its toes. The last thing you want is for the judge to take that last look and find your Shih Tzu sitting or in some other . Do not be constantly putting each single hair in place or placing your Shih Tzu's feet in the right position. This would be seen as over-handling.

If you have a long haired dog, or show dog other methods should be considered. The next method used is the cage dry. This takes slightly more time, and equipment. To cage dry the dog is place in a cage with a cage fan. This fan or drier is clipped onto the cage, and blows into the cage to dry the coat. When doing this a towel needs to be placed in the bottom of the cage. If your dog is too big for a cage a table can be used instead. The only problem may be keeping the dog on the table. A leash to keep the dog on the table may be needed. Keeping an eye on the dog to make sure they still don't try to get off the table and get hurt is also a good idea.

Another method that is most often used at a grooming center is the dry method. This method is used for . This method takes . are very popular breeds to have this drying method used. Most often the hair is not only dried, but straightened as well.

To fluff dry a high speed floor dryer is used. The dryer is pointed at small sections at a time. The purpose of the small sections is so that each area can be thoroughly dried and straightened. The warm the hair as the groomer, whoever it may be, uses a brush to brush the hair upward. This upward stroke with the brush will fluff and straighten the coat. Once one section is completely dried and straightened the dryer is moved to the next section, and the same process is repeated. This method takes time to learn the special technique.

The breed of dog you have will have a big effect on which dry method you can use. If you have a dog that needs the fluff dry method a dog groomer is usually the best bet, as not all these methods can be used at home and still have a good looking coat.
