A bold color contrast, like red window frames against crisp white trim pieces is a classic eye-catching look. “A window is like a twosided canvas,” says Smith. “The colors on the frame exteriors enhance the home's overall appearance from the street.

You can’t judge a book by its cover, but you can judge a home by its exterior. And with warmer weather comes thoughts of outdoor home improvement projects. If you’re looking to boost your house’s curb appeal this season, think about adding color from top to bottom. “Homeowners shouldn’t be afraid of color. Contrasting colors, complementary colors and color accents on a home, when done right, can all add tremendously to the curb appeal of a house,” says national color expert Kate Smith, CMG and owner of Sensational Color. This season Smith is offering some top-to-bottom tips to homeowners ready for bold change: The Roof If your roof appears old and dingy, is leaking or wearing thin, it’s time to research replacement options. Consider durable synthetic slate or shake tiles in a variety of hues. For example, DaVinci Roofscapes offers 49 roof colors along with 28 standard color blends. “Selecting roofing colors that complement the rest of the home helps your eye move from the top down,” says Smith. If you’re overwhelmed by the choices, a free “FRESH Exteriors Color” guide is available for download at www.sensationalcolor.com . The Windows Whether you’re looking for

inside and select stylish woodgrain frame interiors, you're adding beauty to the room settings. That's a ‘winwin' experience for any homeowner.” The Decorum collection by Simonton Windows for example, provides a variety of custom color options like brick, chocolate, bronze and pine green. The Door The door to your house should make a statement. A door with a smooth paintable

surface, made with lowmaintenance fiberglass, allows you to make a new statement as often as you’d like. For example, Therma-Tru’s Classic Craft Canvas Collection has these features, as well as wide center panels and rich embossment details that rival high-end custom wood doors. To further enhance the entryway to your home, consider installing decorative glass inserts in the door.

Then, flank the door with a set of easy-to-install Fypon urethane pilasters, a stylish crosshead and pediment. Resistant to moisture, insects, rot and humidity, both the urethane trim and fiberglass entry door are great low-maintenance solutions to adding curb appeal for the home. From top to bottom, color and detail can give your home a bold, stylish makeover. - StatePoint

Quick and easy ways to update your kitchen For many families, the kitchen is the most important room in the house, topping the list of rooms where they gather most. And it’s almost always the busiest room when entertaining friends. But if your kitchen is outmoded or looking just plain drab, some easy, cost-efficient updates can make it more inviting, without undertaking a major remodeling job.

Walls Wallpaper styles come and go. And if your walls were papered more than a few years ago, you are probably living with a design that’s no longer in fashion. For a timeless look, strip the dated wallpaper and replace it with a bright new coat of paint. Be sure to choose a color that nicely complements the floors, countertops and cabi-

nets. For a modern take on wallpaper, look for mosaic tile collections that showcase beautiful tiles and patterns, providing texture for any wall in your home. For example, Trend USA offers patterns ideally suited to give tired accent walls a fresh twist. Countertops Inconvenience is a major factor with a full kitchen

remodel. But you can update the overall appearance of the kitchen by redoing just the countertops. For example, Granite Transformations, a kitchen and bathroom remodeling company, can transform a kitchen in one day by replacing your countertops with heat, cold and scratch resistant glass or granite. For an even more elegant look, consider opting for

mosaic tiles, inspired by traditional Italian glass mosaics. If you’re nervous about making such a drastic change, fear not, new technologies are making it easier for consumers to visualize potential refurbishments. A new iPad application, iGRANITE, for instance, allows users to upload a snapshot of their space, and change the colors and textures of every surface of the room. More details about downloading the app can be found at www.granitetransformations.com . Appliances When is the last time you replaced your kitchen appliances? No appliance, however durable, will perform optimally forever. It may be time to evaluate if your products are really doing the job. Replacing major appliances like stoves and refrigerators might sound like an expensive prospect, but outdated products are not always as energy-efficient as newer models. Swapping these items will not only give your kitchen a sleek new look, they might also save you money on utilities in the long run. According to real estate experts, kitchen updates offer homeowners the highest return on investment than any other home improvement job. So whether you’re planning to sell your home, or simply bring it into the 21st century, you’d be wise to start with the kitchen. -StatePoint
