Built-In Library Shelves For Easy Home Entertainment
Easy bookkeeping shelves of attractively arranged books in the library den or recreation room can provide many hours of entertainment. Built in bookshelves are especially convenient. You can minimize dusting chores by enclosing the bookshelves within sliding glass panels and by surfacing the shelves with ceramic tile. Real tile cleans easily with a damp cloth.

Home improvement expert Lester Lytton of Flexalum Bridgeport Brass Co advises converting a screened patio into a playroom to ease winter crowding. By replacing panels with glass and adding heat, a patio room can be a cheaper alternative to finishing an attic or basement while aluminum cover remains protective against weather.

Preconstruction treatment and proper drainage and ventilation are urged, plus asking lenders about FHA insured loans for financing.
