I didn’t get a lot performed 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 properly, she discovered a hiding spot to get some solitude. I spent hours of my weekend looking 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 occasions on Friday, and nothing. I repeated that at the very least ten occasions on Saturday, and nothing.
Earlier than I went to mattress on Saturday evening, I arrange a motion-sensing digital camera within the doorway between my studio and the breakfast room in order that I might 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 go away the clinic till 2:30am, after which I didn’t get to mattress till after 3:00am. Lengthy story brief, she’s doing a lot better now, however what they discovered is that she had a mouth damage that was inflicting her extreme ache when she tried to eat or drink. We do not know what prompted this mouth damage, 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 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 at the moment. However my total “to do” checklist for ending the bed room and lobby is getting shorter, and I’ve excessive hopes that I’ll have the ability to get each areas completed by the tip of this month. It is going to really feel so good to get these tasks completed and have the ability to transfer on to the subsequent one!
One merchandise I’m contemplating including to my “to do” checklist 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 type of wreck the aesthetic, although. I’m conscious of that.

During the last yr or so, a number of individuals have beneficial that I look into Fandeliers. These are lights fixtures that seem like a chandelier but in addition 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 trustworthy, I had by no means seen one which I really favored. However over the weekend, I made a decision to present them a critical look and see if there was something on the market which 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 bought the size proper, however I really 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) but it surely’s a Hunter, which is a widely known ceiling fan model, so I like that. It’s additionally the most costly choice of those I like.


And naturally, I needed to embrace this flower choice (affiliate hyperlink) as a result of…properly…I’m me, and I really like flowers. However I believe that is most likely 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 rather well in our bed room. However my important query is that this. Do these really work? I’m so used to having a extremely highly effective ceiling fan that circulates loads 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 an ordinary ceiling fan. So you probably have expertise utilizing a fandelier, particularly in a bed room, I’d like to know your ideas. Have you ever been pleased with it? I’ve spent loads of time studying buyer critiques on all of those, and although they’re all rated 4.1 stars or increased, I simply have a tough time trusting that we’d be pleased with it after having such a robust ceiling fan in our bed room.
