November 2014 Published by Port Jackson Media Montgomery County FREE Fulton County 2 Real Estate Express Stunning DIY painting projects (BPT) — Modern, lively, exciting – if these words don’t describe the style of your favorite rooms, an update is in order. Painting is a classic makeover tool for interior spaces. To give your home’s aesthetic a boost of personality and style, consider these surprisingly simple DIY paint projects that can be done in one day or less. November 2014 Ombre walls: The fading technique that gently transitions one hue to another is popular in clothing and hair coloring, and can also be used for interior design. Pair any two complementing colors to create a beautiful ombre composition on walls. For example, red and orange transition to mimic the visual essence of a sunset, turquoise and blues blend together much like the colors of the ocean, and white with gray makes for a crisp, clean style that captures the look of winter in chic modern style. To create an ombre wall, first select your paint colors. BEHR MARQUEE® Interior Paint & Primer has 372 exclusive one coat colors to choose from. (For details, visit behr.com/marqueeguarantee) Start at the top of the wall and paint the first color about two-thirds down. Then, starting at the bottom, paint the second color upward until it meets the first. Finally, use a large sponge to spread and pat the bottom paint color up the wall to create a beautiful blend of colors with a smooth transition. Ceiling surprise: The often-ignored “5th wall” is the perfect place to add an unexpected touch of color. Forget white and go bold with rich tones that accent the decor in the space. Simply use a roller with an extended handle to make the job easier and select your paint color of choice. Brighten the room and draw attention vertically with a rich yellow color reminiscent of sunshine. Perhaps you’d like to evoke the feeling of the outdoors by painting the ceiling a light blue and sponge paint soft white clouds around light fixtures. Gray is the perfect color for ceilings when contemporary styling is your goal and will give your room a modern edge. Chevron patterns: Chic chevron zigzags have broad visual appeal in a home. The V-pattern pairs well with a variety of interior styles, such as modern and eclectic. A small chevron accent wall can make a tiny space pop with personality. Chevron also looks stylish on tabletops, coffee tables and end tables. Time-saving tip: Paint a wall or tabletop entirely in one shade of paint. Then use quality painter’s tape to create chevron patterns in your desired size. Simply paint over the gaps, let it dry and remove the tape to reveal a crisp chevron design. Colorful accents: Want to revamp a room but don’t want to paint the entire thing? That’s why painting accent walls a bold hue has become the simple way to inject color and style into interior spaces. Achieving rich deep color doesn’t even require multiple coats, thanks to the exclusive BEHR MARQUEE® Interior One-Coat Color Collection. Plus with its low VOC formula and one coat coverage, you can paint a room and entertain (and impress) guests all in the same weekend! Which wall should you select to paint with an accent color? Look at how the room is used and where the eye is naturally drawn. The wall behind the couch, bed or kitchen table are all wonderful locations to experiment with a touch of color. Another option is to choose a focal point to accent, such as painting a border around a piece of art or a TV mounted to the wall. Anyone can be DIY-savvy and achieve impressive results with some high quality paint and motivation.

November 2014 3 Real Estate Express Fall clean-up tips for your lawn and garden tools (BPT) — As the temperature drops, your lawn and garden will start settling into a dormant state. As you prep your landscaping and garden for a winter’s slumber, it’s a good idea to review the tools you used all summer. Taking care of this task now will ensure they’re in good shape come spring when it’s time to use them again. From sharpening edges of blades to making certain the tool is still doing the job it was designed to do, put all your lawn and garden tools through a thorough fall cleaning. Here are some tips: • Lawn mowers – Check your owner’s manual for information about sharpening the mower deck blades and what to do with any unused gasoline before putting the mower into storage. It’s a good idea to keep the mower in a dry location where moisture won’t collect and potentially rust the blades. • Hand trimmers – Hand clippers, tree trimmers and saws all take a beating during the summer. Check these tools to make certain the handles are still secure, the cutting blades are sharp and the locking mechanisms all work. If anything isn’t up to par, replace the tool so you have it ready for the first sign of spring. • Chainsaws – These heavy machines get put through their paces, and they can be taxing on people, too, after extended use. If you’re ready to upgrade your chainsaw, the Husqvarna low-weight 436Li is quiet, easy to operate and has the same power as gas machines. The 536LiXP and the T536LiXP models are also available, and they come with low maintenance and high-performance delivery. All battery-operated chainsaws come with two rechargeable batteries that can be interchanged with any Husqvarna hand tools you might already have in your collection. The batteries have a 40-minute charge time, helping to keep the tools lightweight and quiet. • Weed trimmers – These tools are invaluable for keeping the grasses and weeds trimmed around trees and garden edging. In the fall, be sure to replace the string so you’ll have a fresh spool come spring. Also check the air filter on the tool. If it is dirty, replace the filter to allow your machine to perform at its best. • Hoses – When it’s time to store your hoses for the winter, check all the connections to make certain nothing leaks; replace the connectors if you notice water spraying or dribbling from a connection. And if the hose itself is leaking, put it on your list to be replaced. Make certain you’ve drained all the water out before putting the hoses away for winter. If you have a hose cart, roll up the hose neatly without any kinks. Otherwise, you can just roll the hose into a neat pile of loops for storage in a dry place. With all of your lawn and garden tools safely stored for the winter months, you’ll know they’ll be ready the minute you need them in the spring. J .

Visit our new website for State-of-the-Art Virtual Tours at VASSIREALESTATE.COM 6 Real Estate Express (BPT) — The leaves and the weather don’t need to be the only things to change this season. As the cooler temperatures send you indoors, start adding home improvement projects to your to-do list. Why now? According to a recent survey by Houzz.com, 78 percent of homeowners are looking to improve the look and feel of their space; while 54 percent are looking to add functionality. Here are a few project ideas to get your home feeling and looking fabulous. From boring to bold baths The bathroom topped the 2014 Houzz & Home Survey renovation project list – likely since its one room in the house that’s used every day. If your bathroom is boring, basic or just outdated, it’s time to make a change – even on a budget. Faucets are a simple and affordable way to instantly renew the look and functionality your bath. Moen’s Darcy bathroom collection, available at The Home Depot, includes transitionally styled faucets with a soft-modern look and water-saving benefits to offer the best of form and function and give you a beautiful bath in no time. The collection is also available in Moen’s Spot Resist Brushed Nickel finish, so you’ll save time cleaning, too, as it helps resist water spots and fingerprints. Weather the winter wisely No one wants to spend money on high energy bills, but according to the National Resources Defense Council, approximately one-third of a home’s total heat loss usually occurs through windows and doors that aren’t insulated properly. Don’t throw money out your windows; updates such as weather stripping can keep out cool air while keeping the needed warm air in. And don’t stop there; simple tasks, such as replacing worn-out caulk, insulating your outlets, and prepping your windows with plastic cling for the winter months can significantly reduce your heating and cooling bills. Quick and convenient kitchen upgrade Cool weather means less barbecuing and more indoor cooking. As the entertaining hub and family gathering place, it’s no wonder the kitchen is the second top renovation project on the Houzz list. What are homeowners looking to November 2014 update? Twenty-one percent want a new kitchen faucet. From prep to clean-up, the kitchen faucet is a major workhorse – and a focal point – in the kitchen. So, if you’re living with a builder basic, it’s time for an upgrade. Pulldown faucets are a popular choice, such as the new Hensley kitchen faucet from Moen. Not only will it add a heightened aesthetic and functionality with its Spot Resist Stainless finish, but it also features Moen’s innovative Reflex system, that self-retracts and securely docks to provide smooth operation and easy movement, offering a more convenient kitchen experience. In addition, the faucet features Microban antimicrobial protection – builtin to the faucet finish – to help inhibit the growth of stainand odor-causing bacteria, mold and mildew. For more information, visit moen.com. Get fired up Nothing feels better on a cold night than getting cozy by a fire, but be sure your fireplace is prepped for the season. For a wood-burning fireplace, inspect the chimney for nests or cracks. Next, be sure to clean it thoroughly to remove creosote, which is unburned fuel, to prevent unwanted fires. For gas-burning fireplaces, be sure the airways of the pilot and main burners are working properly and the blower is clean. Finally, be sure you have working carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, as well as an operational fire extinguisher nearby. Soon you’ll (safely) enjoy the warm glow during cold winter days. Focus on fixtures and fans As the days get shorter and there’s less natural light, you may notice your fixtures a lot more. For added illumination and energy savings, update incandescent bulbs with brighter, ENERGY STAR-rated bulbs which use about 75 percent less energy and last 10 to 25 times longer. Next, focus on your ceiling fans. Start by cleaning the blades with a gentle detergent and switch the blades to rotate clockwise. Changing this setting pushes warm air down into the room, making it feel warmer while saving up to 15 percent on heating costs. Check off your home improvement to-do list with these simple changes. Your home will look and feel fabulous, and be more efficient, as the cooler weather approaches. November 2014 Real Estate Express 7 8 Real Estate Express November 2014 5 common weatherization myths busted (BPT) — Last winter’s visit from the polar vortex made for bone-chilling blizzards and teeth-chattering temperatures. If this year is anything like the last, drafty homes and high thermostat settings will accompany the freezing weather. Unfortunately, many homeowners get cold feet when it comes to weatherizing their homes, citing various reasons why they don’t just get it done. Here are five common weatherizing myths you should overcome to help you get ready this winter: Myth No. 1: Weatherizing requires a handyman Hiring a professional to weatherize isn’t necessary. Many easy-to-use weatherization products are available that require minimal – if any – tools, and can be installed in just a weekend. Myth No. 2: Weatherizing isn’t affordable Many do-it-yourself weatherizing products are easy on your wallet. Actually, homeowners can potentially save hundreds of dollars per year on their heating (and cooling) costs by properly air sealing their homes and keeping thermostat temperatures low. Myth No. 3: Weatherize when it’s cold It’s never too early to weatherize, especially as you prepare for Old Man Winter. For best results, take a topdown approach: Start with the attic, winterize windows, close gaps around and under doors, and hit the walls to tackle hidden sources of energy loss. Be sure to check your home’s nooks and crannies, too. Myth No. 4: Being cold is just a part of winter Being cold inside your home may be a sign your house isn’t weatherized properly. One common place to feel drafts is by doors, especially as cracks and gaps can let cold air in and warm air out. Look for insulating seals to stop leaks, like the Triple Draft Seal from Duck brand. A no-nails-needed door bottom, the Triple Draft Seal slides on to prevent drafts from under the door and offers three layers of draft protection: an inner seal helps retain room temperature, an outer seal blocks drafts and the bottom fins help keep out moisture and water. Myth No. 5: Windows and doors are my only problem Windows and doors are prime spots for energy loss, accounting for most air leaks and bitter drafts entering your home, but behind-the-scenes sources also should be addressed. Something as simple as insulating electrical out- lets and switch plates on exterior walls can create a buffer between the outdoor air and your home’s inside. To prevent drafts even further, don’t forget to check the attic. Attic access openings or pull-down stairs are often overlooked and are actually a big source of energy loss. To combat drafts, use an insulating attic seal, like the patented Attic Stairway Cover from Duck brand. It’s flexible, lightweight, easy to install and repositionable for attic access. Don’t let these common misconceptions scare you. As it turns out, weatherizing can be an affordable and easy doit-yourself project. For tips and more information, visit DuckBrand.com/HomeSmart.

Offered at $242,000 10 Real Estate Express November 2014 The homebuilding method you’ve never heard of that cuts energy bills up to 60 percent (BPT) — For people building new homes in the coming months, the ever-increasing pain of monthly utility bills for cooling and heating their homes has them looking for more energy-efficient construction methods. In 2014, homeowners have been burdened with electricity costs that rose 5 percent, heating oil 7 percent and natural gas 10 percent, as reported in USA Today. At the same time, homebuilders are challenged to meet increasingly stringent energy codes imposed by cities and counties. Most homes in North America are built using a technique that has remained essentially unchanged for more than a century. So-called “stick construction” using hundreds of pieces of lumber is notoriously difficult to make energy efficient. The problem is, numerous gaps in the structure provide paths for heated air to leak out and insulation in such homes tends to be spotty, rather than continuous across walls and ceilings. To overcome these limitations, more builders and homeowners are using an advanced building product called structural insulated panels (SIPs). The panels are made of a rigid insulating foam core that has stiff wood panels laminated to it. SIPs are engineered to be stronger than stick construction, and are much more energy efficient. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) reports that SIP buildings are about 15 times more air tight than stick construction. “A SIP house has fewer joints, less complicated interfaces between conditioned and unconditioned spaces, and it is dramatically easier to make it tight,” says Sam Rashkin, the former national director of DOE’s Energy Star for Homes program. A key reason SIP-built homes have far fewer gaps is that the panels come in large sections – up to 8 feet by 24 feet. They also have continuous insulation across the height, width and depth of each panel. As a result, SIP homeowners enjoy up to 60 percent energy cost savings from both heating and cooling their homes. “Everyone is so amazed by the energy efficiency SIPs provide,” says Scott Bergford, a DOE Energy Value Housing Award Builder of the Year, based in Olympia, Wash. “It only costs an average of $200 to $300 a year to heat one of my homes. That’s anywhere from one-fifth to one-sixth the typical costs for this region, so the savings are pretty significant, and the homeowners love that.” In addition to energy savings, SIPs create a comfortable indoor environment and help support healthy indoor air by sealing out common pollutants. Greenminded homeowners also appreciate that building with the panels reduces construction waste by up to twothirds. Despite the wide range of benefits, SIPs generally cost about the same as stick construction, considering that they enable faster home construction and reduce disposal costs from building scraps. “This is the future of homebuilding,” says licensed engineer Joe Pasma, technical director for Premier SIPs. “SIPs provide homebuilders a simple and affordable way to meet evolving energy code requirements, while building better homes that people enjoy living in.” Some homeowners might worry that choosing SIPs will mean a cookie-cutter looking home. Yet, builders can easily adapt the panels to virtually any architectural style for single-family homes or apartments. Builders have used SIPs for designs ranging from ultra-modern contemporary homes, to bungalows – even for Pueblostyle homes in New Mexico and high-end cabins in the Pacific Northwest. November 2014 Real Estate Express 11 Fall projects to make your home sensational (BPT) — There still is time to complete your unfinished outdoor projects. Sixty percent of homeowners will accomplish a home improvement project this year, according to survey data from the Zillow Digs Summer Home Improvement Trend and Spending Survey. Follow these tips to make your home’s exterior shine. • Smooth over concrete surfaces. In order to prevent trips or falls, now is a good time to fix and patch those cracks in the driveway or garage. Be sure to fix them now before they get larger and you could incur larger repair costs. It will also help prevent any future accidents. Small cracks can be fixed with concrete caulk while large cracks require a patch. Make sure to clean out the crack before applying either of these substances. • Repaint the deck. Improving your deck, patio or porch is the seventh most popular home improvement project according to RE/MAX and it’s easy to see why. When you picture yourself outside, you probably picture yourself sitting on the deck. So, make your deck stand out with a fresh coat of paint. “Decorating outside of your home is now all the rage,” says Matthew Mead, author of Backyard Style. “Your deck needn’t be brown and sullen. Infuse your backyard space by selecting whatever color you want and spray the floor of your deck with the Wagner Flexio 890. Your deck will be the toast of the neighborhood.” • Give your old patio furniture a new look. If you’re going to reinvent your deck, why stop there? Why not refresh your patio furniture to complement your deck’s new color, too? “Revive any outdoor furniture with an easy spray using the Wagner Flexio 890,” says Mead. “With a simple coat of paint you can transform tables, chairs, and anything wicker in any hue or shade you desire. In my new book Backyard Style, I show how to take simple flea-market finds and, with some paint and very little effort, transform them into show-stopping decorative accessories.” • Caulk around windows and any exterior joints, including doors. Many people think of this as a preventative project for winter, but a fresh application of caulk will protect cool air conditioning from escaping when you need it most. • Make your home’s exterior sparkle. If your home suffered any damage during the winter, now is the perfect time for repairs that will make your home look great again. Walk around your home and look for damaged or missing siding. Replace these pieces and then use a pressure washer to clean and wash away excess dirt and grime. Using a special detergent appropriate for cleaning your home will give you better results. Once you’re done with the siding, don’t forget to grab the window cleaner and make those windows sparkle. Each of these projects can return between 67 and 112 percent of their value to your home, according to DiGiorgi Roofing and Siding, not to mention the added joy you’ll receive from these home improvements. So get out there and get to work. The sooner you finish your project, the sooner you’ll be able to enjoy the rest of the year in style. 12 Real Estate Express November 2014 Gasp-worthy perils of bad indoor air – and what you can do about them (BPT) — Cooler weather is on the way. You might think the seasonal demise of pollen-spewing flora, coupled with more time spent indoors, means allergy and asthma sufferers – not to mention the rest of us – can expect to breathe easier. Not so – if the air inside your home or office is polluted. Indoor pollutant levels can actually be two to five times worse – and sometimes more than 100 times worse – than what’s outside your house, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. When temperatures dip, Americans tend to spend more time inside and homes stay closed up as we attempt to keep warm, heated air inside. Exposure to indoor air pollution can cause a host of health problems, and it can be especially worrisome for people with existing respiratory concerns. What’s more, bad air can even cause damage to your home. Here are four gasp-worthy problems that can stem from poor indoor air quality, and simple ways you can deflate the risk to your health and home: 1. It can make you sick. Indoor pollutants from radon (a naturally occurring gas) to dust, and volatile organic compounds (from furnishings and wall paint) to household chemicals and cleansers, have been associated with a number of health concerns. While the link between indoor air quality and respiratory ailments may be obvious, some of the other potential health effects are not. Other problems associated with poor indoor air quality range from headache, nausea and dizziness to fatigue, dry eyes and skin, fatigue, fever and even hearing loss. What you can do: Take steps to remove stale, polluted air from inside your home or office. Good ventilation can make your home more comfortable and healthier. Opt to use a skylight for ventilation while you also reap the benefits of natural light. Energy Star-qualified solar powered fresh air skylights, like those made by Velux, can provide passive ventilation and abundant natural light. Passive ventilation through the natural chimney effect of skylights is a great way to remove fumes, odor and humidity from kitchens and bathrooms, and freshen air in other living areas of the home. What’s more, adding an energy-efficient, remotecontrolled solar powered fresh air skylight complete with solar blinds can qualify you for a federal tax credit of 30 percent off the installation and equipment costs. Visit www.veluxusa.com to learn more. 2. It can damage your home. Excess moisture is one of the most damaging aspects of poor indoor air quality. Humidity not only creates breathing difficulty for people with existing respiratory problems, but it can promote the growth of mold and mildew, too, as well as lead to structural rot throughout the home. Mold can be a major problem, causing significant health Your home needs to breathe to fight condensation. By allowing moist inside air to escape and dry outdoor air to enter, you can reduce your home’s humidity level. Venting solar powered fresh air skylights with solar blinds, along with installation costs, are eligible for a 30 percent federal tax credit. woes. If mold is present in your home, you may need to undertake costly repairs to remove it. What’s more, moisture can cause rot in areas of the home you can’t immediately see, such as inside walls, around windows or door frames and in the attic. Rot weakens a home’s structural integrity and may also require expensive repairs. What you can do: Always run vent fans in bathrooms and kitchens when you’ll be generating humidity. Supplement mechanical venting with passive airflow from fresh air skylights. If you live in a particularly damp climate, consider installing a dehumidifier on your heating, ventilation and cooling system to remove excess moisture from the air inside your home. Be vigilant for signs of mold and have any problems handled by a professional. For more tips on controlling condensation visit the Velux America site. 3. It can cost you your job. Poor indoor air quality can affect your job performance. A National Institutes of Health report cites a study in which researchers found that reducing indoor air pollution can improve workers’ performance. In fact, researchers found differences of 6 percent to 9 percent, leading them to conclude that it’s probably more cost effective for a business to reduce indoor pollutants than to increase the supply of outdoor air in a building. What you can do: If your performance at work suffers, it’s not unthinkable that an employer might look for a more energetic employee. Discuss concerns about indoor air quality with your company’s human resources team and ask what’s being done to ensure good air quality in your office. In November 2014 Real Estate Express 13 your own space, consider environment-enhancing steps, including an ionizing air freshener, a desk lamp that mimics natural light and potted plants that can act as natural air fresheners. 4. It can contribute to higher energy bills. Many of the pollutants that irritate your lungs and sinuses can also stress your home’s HVAC system by clogging filters. Clogged air filters force your heating and cooling systems to work harder to achieve their purpose. The harder they work, the more energy they consume. EnergyStar.gov says a buildup of dirt in a home’s HVAC system is the top source of inefficient operation and system failure. If your HVAC system is 10 years old or more, it may already be less efficient than a newer model, and indoor air pollutants can decrease its efficiency even more. What you can do: Regularly change your HVAC system’s air filters. Set a reminder on your smartphone to prompt you when it’s time to change the filter. If your HVAC system is older, consider upgrading it. EnergyStar.gov says upgrading to a newer, more efficient system could save you as much as $200 a year in heating and cooling costs. Additional natural ventilation can help control condensation. Fresh air skylights can not only help your home breathe easier but also bring healthy, natural light into your spaces while providing more privacy, especially in bathrooms. Solar powered fresh air skylights and solar blinds, along with installation costs, are eligible for a 30 percent federal tax credit. Ready for a Change?

The national average cost for a bathroom remodel is $10,142, according to the Cost Guide from HomeAdvisor.com. That’s a hefty investment but one that can easily be reduced with a simple refresh of the space instead. Here are five cost-effective updates you can make to your bathroom in as little as a weekend. Enhance walls with color and pattern You don’t need to re-paint an entire room to alter its overall appearance. Adding a color or design to just one wall in the bathroom can revive the whole space. Have some fun with an accent wall – yellows and golds will warm it up, greens and blues are calming; and if you want bold color, Radiant Orchid, Pantone’s 2014 color of the year, is a bright hue that will really pop. Striped patterns are also a great option – they’re modern and on-trend, plus provide an easy fix for smaller areas. You can use the direction of the stripes to make the space seem larger: horizontal stripes will make it look wider, whereas vertical stripes will elongate walls and give the illusion of a higher ceiling. Make a statement with the mirror To add character to your bathroom with minimal effort, install a unique, eye-catching mirror. Framed styles are a great option, but they can be pricey. However, a little ingenuity can deliver the look you want for a fraction of the cost. Check out a local flea market or thrift store to see if you can find a distinctive picture frame that could be transformed into a mirror. To make it really stand out, look for finds with unconventional shapes, finishes or colors. Declutter and organize shelves and other spaces Looking for an easy way to switch up the decor in your bathroom? Shelf liner, in addition to its traditional uses in kitchens and closets, can be both fun and functional for the bath. Start by cleaning out the space, including cabinets, drawers, the sink top, under the sink and any other storage areas. Then cut and install a non-adhesive shelf liner like Duck brand Smooth Top Easy Liner, which is available in an array of colors and prints to complement various color schemes or styles. It offers a smooth top and grip bottom BPT BPT for easy sliding of items, plus the smooth surface catches messes and spills as they happen to make clean-up a breeze (it’s even machine-washable for larger messes and spills). And, because it’s non-adhesive, you can quickly and easily switch it out when the decorating bug hits again. Brighten up the space with new light fixtures Lighting in any room of the house can affect the way the overall design of the room is received. When done right, fixtures fit in seamlessly; when done wrong, they stick out and distract from other decor. The bathroom light is a great opportunity to inject flair and style into your space with ease - plus provide the illumination you need to get ready for the day. Switch out older ceiling lights with trendy lanterns or an inexpensive, vintage chandelier. For vanities, try sconces with unexpected shades or use tall tabletop lamps instead of wall-mounted styles for added pizzazz. Pull the room together with accessories Accessories are a perfect – and inexpensive – way to add unexpected texture, color and design to a bathroom. Look for options that complement your style to add personality and bring the whole room together. And, don’t forget behind the shower curtain – although bath mats often serve the utilitarian purpose of providing a skidresistant surface for safer footing, they can add a touch of style, too. Duck brand offers several designer bath mats that are not only soft and comfortable, but can also add a bit of pop to otherwise plain surfaces. Don’t ignore the bathroom’s old appearance over the fear of high renovation costs. A few easy-to-do – and seemingly inexpensive – changes can go a long way in transforming your bathroom’s style from drab to fab. 5 budget-friendly tips ! November 2014 Chic # Real Estate Express 15 storage ideas to corral clutter (BPT) — With the fall season comes cool weather and more time indoors. Snuggling up with blankets and partaking in activities at home can create more clutter than usual around the house. Instead of getting frustrated, it’s easy to add stylish storage to corral extra items. Get organized and keep your home clutter-free with a few smart tips. Neat reading racks Many people enjoy a good read before counting sheep. However, books, magazines and tablets can just add disarray if left scattered around the bedroom. To combat this type of clutter, add wall-mounted magazine racks or crates to hold your reading pieces. Paint a wooden crate using FrogTape Multi-Surface painter’s tape. Add stripes in striking colors for a reading rack that’s functional and fabulous looking. FrogTape is the only tape treated with PaintBlock Technology, which forms a micro-barrier against paint bleed, giving you sharp and precise paint lines. Learn more at frogtape.com. After drying, cut your crate down the middle – you now have two spots for book storage. Install simple wall-hanging brackets to the edges of the crates and attach each to the wall with drywall anchors for a sturdy and safe finish. These are also great for stowing away toys in a child’s playroom or towels in the bathroom. Boost bedroom storage If every closet, nook and cranny in your home is occupied, it’s time to look toward other avenues for order. Calm your chaos with under-bed storage units by transforming old dresser drawers into storage space. Paint the drawers in the color of your choice and drill casters to the bottom for easy rolling access. Slide them under your bed and you can now neatly put away items that were once a nuisance. Multipurpose seating Chic ottomans and cushioned benches are great pieces that provide extra seating in family rooms. But in addition to their pleasant outward appearance, many contain hidden storage underneath the lid. Neatly stow away movies, games, blankets and pillows that would otherwise crowd this high-traffic area. Position the furniture as an accent piece or place a lengthy bench along a window for a cozy reading nook, while simultaneously increasing your storage. Cozy staircase storage The space under stairs is often overlooked as a storage spot, since it’s usually closed off with drywall. What most homeowners don’t realize is this tricky triangle is typically hollow, and the “wasted” space can be utilized to store your family’s odds and ends. For extra functionality, transform it into a closet if you’re a DIY weekend warrior. All you’ll need is a couple of days and these steps: • First, frame the door opening for your new closet. Use a drywall saw to create the outline that fits the pre- hung door of your choice. Secure the hinged side to the frame and use wood shims (thin pieces of wood that will properly align the door) to ensure it’s a secure fit within the opening. • Next, you’ll need to create the closet walls inside. Measure the area of the closet and cut sheets of plywood or drywall to those dimensions (depending on how “finished” you’d like the final space to look). Paint the plywood in the color of your choice and install it by nailing it to the existing studs. Just keep in mind that drywall will require a few extra steps, like taping, mudding and sanding before it’s ready to paint. • Now, determine what size storage containers and hooks the space will allow and create shelves and cubbies. Using a nail gun, install ledger strips around the entire closet to support the shelves, making sure they’re level. Secure with screws and install your painted shelves for a cozy – and contained – storage solution. If the construction of this project seems a bit too ambitious, reach out to a trusted contractor to handle the building components. You can tackle the most fun part – painting! Whether you have limited storage or are simply looking for ways to bring order to your home, now is the time to reorganize. With these suggestions, you’ll achieve a modernized and tidy living space, in no time at all. 16 Real Estate Express November 2014 REAL ESTATE Arlene M. Sitterly, Inc.
