What’s In For Outdoors (NAPS)—If you want to get more enjoyment out of your yard, you can consider creating attractive outdoor spaces that are both easy to take care of and good for the environment. American homeowners are increasingly drawn to adding outdoor rooms for entertaining and recreation on their properties. That’s what the most recent Residential Landscape Architecture Trends survey conducted by the American Society of Landscape Architects discovered. The survey John Austin results also show demand for both sustainable and low-maintenance design. • Custom Shower Enclosures Landscape architects who spe• Mirrored Walls cialize in residential design were • Plexiglass & Lexan asked to rate the expected popu• Custom & Beveled Mirrors larity of a variety of residential • Screen Enclosures outdoor design elements.

cent of respondents rated fire pits and fireplaces as somewhat or very in demand, followed by grills, seating and dining areas, and lighting. Decorative water elements— including waterfalls, ornamental pools and splash pools—were predicted to be in demand for home landscapes. Spas and pools are also popular. Terraces, patios and decks are also high on people’s lists. Americans prefer practical yet striking design elements for their gardens including low-maintenance landscapes and native plants. In addition, more people are opting for food and vegetable gardens, including orchards and vineyards. Good To Know If you’re thinking of joining them, a few food-growing facts and hints may help: • Food gardens can be easy, rewarding and sustainable. For starters, you can use fallen leaves in autumn and grass clippings in spring and summer as mulch and weed suppressant. • Perennial plants can be low maintenance—they come back every year without replanting. Some great examples include asparagus, blueberries, blackberries and rhubarb. • Herbs can make for an especially sustainable food garden, as many prefer hot and dry areas of your yard, with chives, sage and tarragon returning every year.

Color Your World Wonderful (NAPS)—Here’s a bright idea: You can easily enhance your home with a few simple, colorful, practical and decorative elements—without having to spend a lot of the green stuff. These hints on how from home expert Ginny Bean may help: • In the bedroom: Wake up the way your room looks with an easy-tomake headboard. Have a sheet of plywood cut to the bed’s width and about 48” high. Wrap the plywood with quilt batting and then staple on a colorful fabric, such as an extra flat sheet that coordinates with the rest of your bedding, wrapping it to the back. Screw the headboard to the wall, hiding the screws at the bottom behind the bed. A quick, easy way to make your bed look more luxurious and inviting is to add a variety of pillows in different shapes, sizes and textures. To brighten it up even more, you can now get sheets, shams and comforters that feature tropical shades of sky blue and goldfinch yellow. • In the kitchen: Show off your good taste with colorful linens, bright comfortable rugs and eye-catching accessories such as brightly colored canisters. You may be tickled pink to get blenders, toasters and can openers in hot new shades of pink grapefruit and island blue. The blender has four stainless steel blades. The two- or four-slice toaster senses the moisture in bread to toast it right. The electric can opener’s magnetic lid lifter means safe and easy disposal. The island blue color can also be found on pots and pans. You can even get cookin’ like Rachael Ray Gravely ZT with an ovenand dishwasher60HD safe cookware $ set.
