It's Okay To Vent!
I spent this weekend helping my parents move into a retirement community spec home. WEll... there is alot of tweaking to be done, because when you buy spec nothing is really custom thus many things are out of your control. That being said my biggest pet peeve is the dreaded wall vent! The ones placed in the most awkward locations, like above windows and french doorways and right when you walk in the door smack in the middle of the wall facing you! Yes, this is what my poor parents are up against in their home. However, I am going to give you all a little tip! This is especially for those renovating or building your home do "custom vents"! It's true you can have vents that actually look cool. Besides vents must go somewhere, so why not make them attractive? Check out the great vents and grilles I found on Architectural Grille and go HERE to find out more info!

Okay, thanks. I'll never look at my vents the same way again. Just added to my "to do" list.
