Decor fit for royalty Nurseries for your prince or princess Lucy Hyslop For Postmedia News From a fantasy carriage crib costing around $19,000 to a machine that warms up your baby’s wipes, there’s little doubt that there are many products around to make a baby feel just like a little prince or princess. With pictures emerging almost daily of Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge and her “bump” — including a recent snap of her buying a Moses basket in London — there’s a hint of a regal twist to new motherhood this year.

In England, the news has translated into such hot-ticket items as a palette of soft, tranquil hues at one of the smartest paint companies, Farrow & Ball (also available in Canada), as well as a clutch of design tips from such legends as Kelly Hoppen (widely tipped as the royal nursery creator) and Lucinda Croft, who designed the nurseries for both princes William and Harry.

Three Pears Bobbin play centre from Ellaandelliot.com.

There’s no shortage of stores and advice to make nurseries equally majestic, but perhaps without needing to have a royal purse. For as interior designer Donna Lorimer points out, the first consideration should always be the budget. Right off the bat, she suggests one trick of the trade is to subscribe to your favourite baby stores online so you have a heads up when the sales are coming. “List the items you are interested in, and don’t be afraid to purchase early if the price is right — nine months goes by faster than you think,” she says. When planning where to set up the nursery, think practically: Next to your bedroom or down the hall? (“The closer the room, the more you save on zombie walking time in the middle of the night,” adds Lorimer, who has worked on myriad nurseries in her 25-year career) Is it properly insulated from noise and cold or heat? Is there a window — will you be able to darken the room during the all-important nap time? Install dim-

c o mm e n ta ry

Saskatoon needs Avoid fads to protect hardwood to cut red tape CEO and President Canadian Home Builders’ Association — Saskatchewan The City of Saskatoon has been well recognized for its initiative and determination in facing the challenges brought on by the abrupt changes in our local housing situation. The professional administration has shown considerable foresight, as is evident in the city’s new rental construction land-cost rebate program. This program encouraged the construction of quality affordable rental housing units, just one of many measures required to address shortages and increasing costs in certain segments of the local market. We don’t mind pointing out that the money to pay for these programs comes from the profits raised through building permit fees and for the development cost charges placed on new homes. Our residential construction industry is frustrated and concerned with the continued slow rate at which the building inspections branch has been processing permit applications and completing inspections. We have learned that the weather has caused delays, but just as we know winter will end, we also know spring will come. We should have expected winter to end. We have also been trying to prepare builders and plan reviewers for the adoption of the 2010 national building code for more than two years, for original adoption on Sept. 1, 2011. Well, adoption didn’t occur until May 1, 2013, so clearly there was plenty of time to adjust to the code changes, so this didn’t delay any permit applications. With Saskatchewan, and particularly Saskatoon, facing housing issues on a perpetual basis, builders are feverishly working to supply the market with quality housing, yet the residential construction industry continues to be met with delays when submitting permit applications for approvals and receiving timely inspections. Despite our city’s already short building season (weather and other restrictions), developers and builders continue to face delays and red tape in permit approval processes, issuance and inspections. The City of Saskatoon has made it a practice to deal with nonprofessional individuals building their own homes to an extent that does not occur anywhere else in Canada. Consideration must be

Samsung pours on fridge Postmedia News Samsung has introduced a new take on water dispensers: carbonated water right from your fridge door. Calling it the industry’s firstever automatic sparkling water dispenser, the company recently unveiled a four-door refrigerator featuring an integrated system that delivers cold, filtered, sparkling water from the same mechanism on the refrigerator door that produces still water and ice. The appliance offers three levels of carbonation and retails for $3,799.

mIKE HOLMES Make it Right

I’ve got a soft spot for hardwood floors. I think most of us do. The main reason is that it doesn’t hold dust and dirt the way carpet does. If you have allergies or respiratory problems, hardwood is a better choice. But let’s not forget the obvious: hardwood looks good — and it brings up the value of your home. What’s the best hardwood flooring? I get that question a lot, but many considerations go into answering it. The first question any flooring pro will ask you is what’s your household like? Do you have a lot of traffic? Do you have kids or pets? All of this matters in finding the right hardwood for your home. If your floors need to handle a lot of traffic, you have to look at grain, colour and texture before you make your final decision. Don’t fall in love with something from a magazine or TV show, and don’t base your entire decision on just colour. Be informed. Think about maintenance. Think about your lifestyle. Then think about what you want your floors to look like in 10 years, and what you have to do to keep them that way. Busy life, busy grain: If you have the kind of home where dogs or cats are running around, people are always coming through and kids bring their friends over to play, then you want a busy grain. A busier, grainier hardwood helps hide scratches. Oak, hickory and ash are among the best for this. Lighter and more natural colours are also better options if you’re worried about scratches, which darker stains really highlight. In terms of maintenance, red oak natural is a good option. It will look great for years — even with a million scratches — because of its grain. Light colours, light maintenance: Next, they’ll ask you about your maintenance expectations. Does everything have to look perfect all the time or are you OK with

Alex Schuldt/The Holmes Group

Natural, light-coloured hardwood flooring is becoming more popular. a little dirt? Do you usually sweep the floors every two days or every two weeks? Any type of hardwood you choose needs to be vacuumed every four to five days. That’s the commitment you make if you go with hardwood. You can also Swiffer or dry-mop it. But whatever you do, don’t wet-mop it as that can remove the finish and make the wood swell. Darkly coloured floors show dirt easily, so they need cleaning more often. That’s why I’m seeing more people go for lighter colours — but not everywhere. What might be popular in a small town won’t be popular in a big city, and what works for a home might not work in a condo. You’re usually dealing with different light and space — and that affects what’s best. More texture, more leeway: More homeowners are also buying textured hardwood, which comes in oak, hickory, maple or walnut. Part of its appeal is that it’s new and different. Yes, it costs more than smooth wood, but it will look better for longer. There are two main types of textured hardwood: hand-scraped and wire-brushed. Wire-brushed is done by machines, whereas handscraped is done manually by a craftsperson, so every single board is different. The craftsperson even stamps the back of the hardwood board (done more for quality control than value). But it also makes the craftwork authentic, and might even be a nice selling point if you ever decide to sell. The most important thing when choosing hardwood floor is to be realistic about your expectations. If you don’t want to clean all the

time but you want your floor looking perfect, then a darker hardwood isn’t your best bet — even if you love the look. Also, talk to sales reps and ask a lot of questions. Like, how will the floor look in five years, 10 years, or 20? To stain or not to stain?: A stained natural wood is a bad idea if your flooring has to stand up to a lot of traffic because any scratches will reveal the lighter wood underneath. A good alternative to staining is fuming. That’s when the hardwood is treated to activate its natural tannins. The colour seeps all the way through the board, so if it gets scratched it still looks OK. Remember, hardwood is expensive, so you don’t want to have to replace it just because you followed a trend for bold colours a few years back. Most homeowners can’t afford to change their flooring every five years. Plus, it’s a pain to replace. In most cases, the hardwood flooring you choose today will be the same one in your home 15 to 20 years from now. It’s in for the long haul.

given to the possibility that the building inspections branch assumes a greater level of administrative overburden in dealing with individuals who are unfamiliar with the building code or home building in general. We feel that it makes good sense that this activity not interfere with the effort to provide needed housing through the services paid for by legitimate, professional builders and renovators. Builders, renovators and contractors have great concerns with winters from recent memory. We have collaborated in the past to accelerate the pace and cut the average number of days it takes to issue a permit. It is unacceptable that we would continue to see twoweek delays for permits. Our concerns have previously been brought to the city’s attention during land sales policy discussions, at which time the city expressed an interest in working toward a one-stop process and possibly adopting an accelerated same-day temporary permit. A single-window portal to coordinate and accelerate the permit process and other services involved with the construction industry should be on the table now. Despite all these good intentions, the procedure required to process permits remains hampered by the level of misunderstanding between the land branch, the building inspections branch and other administrative offices. We need only look to other cities for current best practices. The City of Saskatoon needs to address the deficiencies and delays in permitting, zoning, inspection processes, etc. We again recommend a streamlined application process be created to mitigate time delays and confusion among departments. It seems clear that providing housing in a timely manner is necessary if we intend to meet the demands created by the influx of people into our city and sustain the thriving economy of our province and our great city. Opportunities for genuine collaboration with the residential construction industry are certainly possible and we can work together to satisfy the needs of this complex housing market as we look forward to continuing partnerships that foster real solutions in order to provide quality housing options for everyone in all communities in Saskatoon. Alan Thomarat is the president and CEO of the Saskatoon & Region Home Builders’ Association and the Canadian Home Builders’ Association — Saskatchewan. He also serves as a director on the national board of the Canadian Home Builders’ Association in Ottawa.

Nursery Forget matchy-matchy furniture Continued from F1 When it comes to that furniture, Lorimer and her colleagues at Modern & Affordable Design Solutions (MAD) rattle off a checklist: Crib, mattress, bedding, chair, side table, table and floor lamps, ceiling mount fixture, dresser with contoured change pad that attaches to the top, easy-toclean rugs, shelving, storage (toys and books), window coverings, art, accessories, laundry hamper, Diaper Genie, music, safety gear (baby-proofing outlets) … On Kate plumping for the more eco-friendly Moses basket, Lorimer explains there’s a trend for cribs made of organic and sustainable materials, as well as in blond or pale woods. “Some parents are also choosing materials such as Lucite cribs,” she adds, with a nod to singer Beyonce’s latest purchase. “Cribs now come in a wide variety of

surprising shapes, with shelving and unique cubbies for storing baby products.” As for the parental c h a i r, perhaps it’s a glider or a r o c k e r, as there will be much time spent here, of course, with nursing followed by years of bedtime stories. Adding an ottoman is a nice touch as well, Lorimer says, although she emphasizes that parents should think about the furniture’s style and whether the pieces will be reused in another room at a later date. Whereas in the past, new parents would bring home complete sets of one brand, the designer believes people want a different design look today. Forget matchy matchy,

Personalize your child’s space with a chalkboard, from Pottery Barn Kids. the sen i o r M A D i n t e rior designer stresse s. “ B y choosing separate bits and bobs based around a central idea, the room will feel more individual and creative.” Those central ideas vary g re at ly, o bv i o u s ly. S h e knows one couple who, while on a trip to Italy, came across reproduction prints of the original book of Pinocchio, which they then had matted in white (they were painted in primary colour watercolours) and framed in glossy red lacquer frames. “So the room was designed around these beautiful prints — inspiration can be as simple as that,” she explains. For overall decoration, it’s all about picking a hue that will work well with such a theme: Cream, yellow, beige, grey and pale green. Neutrals on the walls, in other words, that are great married with punches of accent colours or interesting patterns via accessories, the mobile, drapes, artwork, bedding and items such as nubby throws and rag rugs. “We know that colour stimulates babies, however, for a nursery we also want to create a soothing, calming and maybe chic environment,” Lorimer adds. (And don’t forget that includes the ceil-

What’s trending now includes themes such as animals, flowers or nautical as well as butterflies, stars and planets and the everpopular nursery rhymes or fairy tale characters. Also in vogue are large-scale stripes

and chevrons in wallpapers and bedding, or try a simple black-and-white palette and then add accents of colour. “There are also tribal prints Ikat and Suzanis cropping up, which are child friendly in terms of subject and colour,” she adds. “By keeping it simple, the decor can evolve as your child’s tastes

and interests develop.” Meanwhile, it’s important to think about how you want the room to fit in, potentially, with the rest of the house. As Lorimer concludes: “You are the one spending the most time in that room and until that baby speaks, you are in control of decorating.”

It’s the smartest ﬂyer site in town!

They call it the transporter. It “beams” the kids from one home to another in the blink of an eye. The designer and builder of the transporter are Monica McGrath and Kent Kirkland. Monica is the business manager at a high school. Kent is the owner of Kirkland Homes Master Builder. The two met in 1995 in Yellowknife. A year later, they were married. They moved to Edmonton in 2000. Then came Sean, now 10, and Audrey, eight. Not quite four years ago, the marriage ended. . The two were forced into a new and awkward routine, familiar to thousands of single parents. The kids would spend one week at Kent’s,

the next week at Monica’s. The children’s social, recreational and educational essentials were ferried back and forth with them. Often, something critical was forgotten and another trip was required. Monica thought there had to be a better way. So she did a rough design and took it to Kent. The design is the home they live in today — a duplex linked by a transporter. One of the neat things about the McGrath-Kirkland home (or homes) is that it hides its duplex-ness from the street. Monica’s door faces the front, while Kent’s is offset and facing one side. Both front doors share a front veranda, but from the street you’d think it was one large home. City planners needed to be convinced of this. The design did not meet civic guidelines.

The kids’ bedrooms are located in a hallway accessible to both homes. At each end of the hallway are locking fire doors. If it’s Kent’s week with the kids, Monica closes and locks the door on her end of the hallway. If it’s Monica’s week, Kent locks his hall door. The kids know not to knock on or try to enter through the locked doors. If they need the other parent, they can use the phone or the front doors. The beauty of the arrangement is that the kids have permanent bedrooms. No need to fer ry stuf f around. Monica and Kent need not drive and pick up kids. From the beginning of their troubles, they always put the children first. The transporter home allows them to live that priority 24-7.

A: The key to a great survival kit is to collect enough supplies to last at least three days. Survival kits are available in stores but are quite pricey and may not contain everything that personalizes your family’s needs. You will need to store all dry food in an air-tight, food-grade storage container. Temperature changes really affect shelf life. It’s best to store food in a cool, dry place. The shelf life of dried beans varies depending on the bean; blackeyed and black turtle beans have a shelf life of 15 to 20 years, while Adzuki beans and small red beans can be kept for eight to 10 years. In year terms, brown rice will keep for six; lentils for eight to 10; white rice for eight to 10; quinoa for eight to 10; rolled oats for 30; and dry pasta for 15 to 20. Most dried fruits can be stored for one year at 15 C, six months at about 27 C. Non-acidic foods in cans, such as corn, green beans, mixed veggies, mushrooms, potatoes, yams, asparagus and carrots can be stored for at least 24 months. Beyond these dates, there is a steady vitamin loss in percentage points each year for individual veggies and fruits. For canned foods, you should always check the best-before date. The codes that are stamped on canned foods are manufacturers’ codes that usually designate the date the product was packaged. Many manufacturers offer a tollfree number for inquiries about expiration dates. The general rule of thumb is that canned foods have a shelf life of at least two years from the date of purchase. It is recommended that all canned food be stored at moderate temperatures (about 21 to 24 C). Honey, salt and sugar can be stored indefinitely. Powdered or dried milk products are probably the most sensitive to environmental conditions, particularly to temperature and moisture content. Vitamins A and D found in dried milk are also photosensitive and will break down rapidly if exposed to light. Non-fat dried milk is suitable for short- and long-term storage; it is made from non-fat, grade-A milk that has been sprayed into a hot air drum to remove most of the water, prohibiting the growth of microorganisms. Dried milk should be kept as cool as possible. If the storage container is transparent or translucent then it should be put into a second container that’s opaque, or stored in a dark room. Mylar bags and #10 cans make good containers for large quantities of dried milk. If the conditions are right, powdered milk can be stored for three to five years. Studies show that if water is bacteria-free and stored in clean containers it will stay safe for several years. It is a good idea, however, to periodically check water for purity and taste, and change it every few years. Germination of seeds depends on variety, humidity and temperature conditions. On average most vegetable seeds such as beets, cucumbers and radishes keep for up to 10 years in airtight containers. Alkaline and primary lithium batteries can be stored for 10 years with moderate loss capacity. To prolong battery life, remove them from any equipment and store in a cool, dry place.

Q: I am starting to put together a long-term survival kit as I have loved ones dependent on me in the event of a disaster. My questions are: ■■ What is the shelf life for dried lentils, beans, rice, peas, barley and quinoa? ■■ What is the shelf life for rolled oats, dry pastas, canned vegetables and meats, powdered milk, bottled water, packaged dried fruit and nuts? ■■ How long will garden seeds keep and still germinate? ■■ How long can batteries be stored for and still be good? Thanks.
