Ceiling tile is beautiful! It looks great and was easy to install. We used a few pieces of strategically placed two sided tape and staples. No glue. Just need to put a decorative molding around the edges and it will be perfect.

Cheap Stack-On LS-1402 Log Stacker

List Price: $16.99

I have used the EZ stackers for many years both in my house and outside in New England weather. I burn ~ 4-5 cords of wood a winter in two stoves and a wood burning furnace.
1. They are easy to use.
2. Except for building a log stacking frame yourself using scrap material this seems to be the least expensive method.
3. I recommend using pressure treated 2X4s outside.
4. Make the length 8-12'. I tried 16' once but the stack of wood was unstable.
5. I cover the wood with a tarp only in fall and winter after an extended dry spell. Covering the wood year round does not dry it as well.
6. The plastic pieces will eventually become brittle and crack, but one should get ~ 10 years out of a set
Main thing I like is that you buy your own slats, at whatever length you need. I needed feet and odd inches to fit my space, and these really filled the bill.
Figure you need 3 of these brackets per cord, but get 2 if you're buying half a cord. You won't regret it. I tried to get away with 1 for firewood at our cottage and ended up ordering a 2nd and had to re-stack a lot of wood. I was so happy with this product I ordered a 3rd to use at home. We don't have much wood since we just occasionally use a fire pit here so I just got 3 boards, cut all 3 in half, and set up a half-length bracket (see my "customer pic") and it's miles better than the old stack we had that was pushing over the fence I foolishly leaned it up against.
Pressure treated 2x4's fit snug and solid. Stud 2x4's have a little slop in the fit.
Setup could not be simpler. Get 4 pressure treated 8-foot 2x4's, cut two in half, and you're ready to rock.

When I unpacked this, my first thought was "Good thing they're cheap". Well, they really work along with being cheap. They're just plastic and wiggle-waggle with no wood in the pile, but it becomes very stable with wood.Main thing I like is that you buy your own slats, at whatever length you need.

Bought several of these (I have lots of wood). This is by far the best product to use if you want to stack fire wood. I have also bought similar products from the "bargin" stores but they did not hold up well to the elements. I held out reviewing this product because I wanted to see if the "plastic" would withstand the cold winters, and they have. No cracks and fire wood is still standing. I would highly recommend this product!!! Do not buy imitation products....only buy the EZ stacker.Honest reviews on Stack-On LS-1402 Log Stacker
Great design. Solid material. Running boards "vertically" is an excellent way to keep your firewood out of the mud and bugs and allowing weather to run off it quickly.Figure you need 3 of these brackets per cord, but get 2 if you're buying half a cord.

The EZ stackers are easy to use and set up..I have the maximum size set up (4x8) and it is full of wood... No screws or nails used. Didn't think it would be stable, but is surprisingly so. Great deal for the cost! The brackets can be easily stored so I can take it down next spring.Tuesday, June 3, 2014
Reviews of Heritage Lace Lighthouse Curtain Panel
I used this to top a curtian in my living room and it is just right. It is very sheer and delicate looking. I would definately buy another.
It would be nice to be able to zoom in or see a good enlarged picture to see the details, but I had purchased a pair previously and knew exactly what they looked like, so didn't hesitate to bu them.

Valance fit perfectly in my designated window. The fabric allows sunlight to shine through, but still provides privacy I was seeking. The quality is superb.Best Deals for Heritage Lace Lighthouse Curtain Panel
These curtains are elegant and complement my old Victorian home. They are easy to install and easy to clean when necessary. They are well made and a good price. They provide privacy but also let the sunlight in the room.

These curtains met my expectations much more than expected. My husband and I looked for curtains that would match our theme and these were perfect. Other sites sell the same curtain but at a steeper price. I am a regular shopper at Amazon because I love the quality of the merchandise as well as the price and fast shipping. I would recommend these to anyone who loves a rustic feel to their home.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Heritage Lace Lighthouse Curtain Panel
After purchasing one valance, and seeing the quality and craftsmanship that went into making the valance, I ordered 5 more. One special feature, at least to me, is that when the sun shines through the valance, a mountain image reflects off an adjacent wall like a mural.Wednesday, May 14, 2014
Cheap Panacea 15208 20-Inch Tubular Steel Log Hoop

List Price: $35.99

This is a sturdy little forged log ring. It looks great next to our woodstove. It's not meant to be carried around (which I think it obvious) but just wanted to throw that out there. We bring our wood in, in a bag. and then load it into this. It holds a day's worth of wood, we burn all day. It was bigger than I expected which was nice.
No tools required. Just take it out of the box, snap the supports together and you good.
Very happy customer.
But lo and behold, load it up and its rock solid. Holds a good amount of wood too
Great for the price

Just received my Mini Philo Ledge Plant and have to say that this product is exactly as pictured and did not disappoint. At first I thought this was a little pricey for artificial greenery but after looking around local stores, I trusted that The House of Silk Flowers would create a product several steps above what I could find in the stores. And I was right. Take the plant out of the box, place it where you need it, and it is perfect....no fluffing or rearranging the branches. It looks life-like, rich and full; highly recommend.

Review of Single Panel Curved Black Wrought Iron Screen
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $139.95
Sale Price: $100.37
Today's Bonus: 28% Off

This product is cheap. Cheap materials, cheap construction and cheap looks. You certainly get what you pay for. The product, while one of the least expensive on the market, is not worth the expense. The light gauge materials cause the curved frame to "rack" leaving it looking warped. It looks much heavier in the advertisement. I do not trust this piece to stand up on its own and would suggest using tie-wire to secure it to some eye-hooks to prevent tipping. It is very plain, which is can be interpreted as a positive comment. No frills might be a better adjective. The packaging was awful. Clearly this was a retread from a return. Box was opened and re-secured with a single span of tape across the center of width of the box. Buyer beware!!
Construction is adequate though the frame could have been a little beefier. Overall good product at a great price and not some traditional eyesore. Barely notice this is there when the fire is on.

This screen is decent. Although the quality is not stellar, it is one of the cheaper ones on the market, so you get what you pay for. However, I am returning it because the advertised specifications are wrong. The screen I got was only 40.5 inches wide. I realize that a half an inch is minimal, but it was enough to make it too narrow for our fireplace.Saturday, November 9, 2013
Reviews of Panacea 15424 Cast Iron Fire Grate, Black, 24-Inch
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $55.65
Sale Price: $28.17
Today's Bonus: 49% Off

The item seems of reasonable quality and has been used by me now for several weeks. I do have a potential hazard to report: The front legs are too far recessed towards the back causing the grate to tip over forward once a slightly heavier log is placed at the front. This is a serious design flaw and potential fire hazard that should be corrected by moving the front legs further towards the front.
EDIT 11/12/11: While I initially really liked this grate, it failed too quickly like the many grates before it. Guess I'll go back to a different type. We burn wood 5-7 days of the week during the winter and toward the end of last season this grate started coming apart.

I found that cast iron grates were a little more difficult to find locally, so I ordered the Panacea 24" 15424 model. It arrived quickly and packed fairly considering the weight of the item. The design of the grate is pretty standard for cast iron grates, with a fair amount of spacing between the bars to allow for ash to fall through. It's a fairly stable surface and it will wobble. If pushed or weighed down in the front it has a tendency to tip; however, this hardly ever happens as you load the entire grate with wood. It only happened to me when I was actually pushing on the front while cleaning out of my fireplace, so it's not really a concern. Overall, this Panacea product has good quality and delivers exactly what you expect from the product.EDIT 11/12/11: While I initially really liked this grate, it failed too quickly like the many grates before it.

Item is "grate"! Sturdy and strong. Arrived promptly and in excellent condition. Love ordering thru Amazon.Honest reviews on Panacea 15424 Cast Iron Fire Grate, Black, 24-Inch
The price was in-line with others I had looked at, so I bought it. It arrived on time, and looked great. During my first fire, I heard a HUGE pop from the fireplace. After the fire died down, I investigated. The thing cracked. I'm not talking about a hairline crack, but a full break in the back part of the grate. I might be able to use it again, but will definately have to buy another grate for next year's fire burning season. I'm not sure if the one's at Home Depot and Lowes are any better for the price, so more research is needed. I would NOT buy this one again. PS: I don't build bonfires, so this wasn't that big of a fire, only 3 logs.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Panacea 15424 Cast Iron Fire Grate, Black, 24-Inch
