5 tips for creating the
bedroom sanctuary of your dreams
Your bedroom is your oasis – a place to relax, recharge and retreat from the world. It’s also where you probably spend the most time between sleeping, getting dressed and lounging in bed with a great book or show.

April 30–May 14, 2021

nd with the cooler months coming up, you’re bound to spend even more time inside, so create the bedroom sanctuary you’ve always wanted with these five tips. 1. Choose colour wisely. Hot pink may be your favourite colour, but do you really want it all over the walls? Colour is a powerful influencer and can really affect the mood and tone of your bedroom, so go for hues that evoke a look and feel you’ll want to experience every day. If you want something more airy and serene, opt for neutrals. If you want a brighter, bolder aesthetic, consider using that hot pink as an accent colour in a lamp shade or vase. 2. Do-it-yourself. There’s nothing like homemade personal touches to make the space feel truly your own. Pick out a fabric you love and make a beautiful case for a decorative pillow. Customize a wooden picture frame with a fun paint colour or
INFO YOU CAN USE
textured stain. Repurpose an antique family heirloom or garage sale find. Whether you’re a DIY pro or can’t sew on a button to save your life, there’s a project you can master. 3. Spotlight your passion. Animals, photography, fashion, movies – whatever you love, you’ll love your room that much more if it’s included. Incorporating a few subtle touches is the key to keeping things fresh and stylish rather than gimmicky and overbearing. Use monochromatic images or frame prints in classic colours like white or black. 4. Deck out your window. You’ve heard that a good mattress is the best investment you’ll ever make, but a quality window treatment is just as important. 5. Finish off with soothing touches. Complete your sanctuary with comforting accessories that appeal to your senses, like scented candles, cozy blankets and a plush duvet. ■ — News Canada

oving an elderly loved one can be tough. No one wants to upset that person and everyone wants the move to go as smoothly as possible. This can seem like mission impossible. The children and families of the Baby Boomer generation – people born between 1946 and 1960 – are already helping their loved ones move into downsized or elderly assistance accommodations and often are not emotionally prepared for the task at hand. Senior loved ones can be very set in their ways and often are not well equipped to express their emotional frustrations in a constructive way as moving day draws closer. It all can seem like a daunting task. Over the years, we have packed and moved many seniors and the important thing is to stay organized, be patient, calm and respectful throughout the entire moving process. If you are moving a senior loved one into a retirement facility or a condo, you should first contact the management to find out what they are allowed to bring in, appropriate moving hours and if they have any tips specific to their facility to help smooth the moving process. Remember the following:
organize, begin packing weeks in advance
If your loved one is moving from a large home to a one-bedroom condo, there will be more furniture than needed. Get a floor plan of the new space and help your senior plan the space with their favourite furnishings, then help them decide what to do with the left overs. If the item is a family heirloom and cannot be accommodated in the new space, suggest giving it to a close family member like a favourite grandchild.
sort before you pack
Seniors tend to collect things they don’t need or use. Be sensitive when suggesting to get rid of possessions. Ask if they use the item and if they would mind if you donated it to raise money for the Salvation Army, for example. Start packing early to avoid feeling overwhelmed as moving day draws closer.
pack, clean as you go
When helping sort and pack your senior’s belongings keep in mind that their eyesight and reduced mobility prevents them from doing regular chores and can result in poor housekeeping habits. Instead of commenting, offer to clean as you pack and try not to be judgmental.
you will need more time than you think
Allow enough time so your loved one doesn’t feel rushed. Sorting through years of stuff is difficult and sometimes emotionally painful. Allow your loved one time to say goodbye. If they take longer to clean out the desk drawer because they found a stack of pictures, let them take the time to walk down memory lane. This is a very important part of the process. Be patient and listen to their life stories, there will come a time you will be glad you did.
wrap small items in coloured paper
This prevents items like knickknacks from becoming lost or mistakenly thrown out.
label boxes on top and sides
Make sure to mark the top and sides of boxes as they’re packed and write in large letters to make it easier
THE VIEW
for your loved one to read. Make sure to label boxes containing breakable or sentimental items as ‘fragile’.
pack all electronics in the original boxes
Otherwise, use low-static bubble wrap when packing these items.
use packing paper
When wrapping fine china and precious items, do not use newsprint because the ink can bleed.
seal with packing tape
This makes it easier to stack and protect your senior’s belongings.
use boxes designed for items you are packing
Invest in dish packs for dishes and wardrobe boxes for clothing. Wardrobe boxes make it easy for seniors to access their clothing on hangers.
check unwanted clothing before donating
It’s a good idea to sort unwanted clothing for donation prior to moving. Before donating any gently worn unwanted clothing, check pockets for valuables. Seniors often hide small valuable items like jewelry or cash in the pockets of suit jackets or shoes and forget where they hid it.
make your loved one’s new space feel familiar
Take pictures and colour samples of the inside of their current home. Try to decorate the new space and place objects in a similar way, so that their new space will feel like the old one. Be as detailed as you can, from arranging the bedroom furniture to placing family pictures on the bureau. This will help make the new surroundings feel like home.

3 smart things to do with your
T
ax season is here, and many of us will be getting some money back. Perhaps one of the most important findings from new Financial Consumer Agency of Canada research is that by doing small things today, you can significantly improve your long-term financial situation, regardless of your income. Here are three small steps you can take with your refund in 2021.
Pay off your debt
Use your tax refund to help pay off your debts. There are different strategies for paying down debt. The most common is to pay off debts with high interest rates first, in order to pay less interest in the long run and become debt free sooner. But you could also choose to pay off your smallest debt
tax refund
first to achieve a “quick win” that motivates you to keep going.
Create or add to your emergency fund
An emergency fund can help you prepare for future situations that are out of your control, like an unexpected job loss, healthcare costs or repairs to your car or appliances. While reaching your emergency saving goals may seem overwhelming, start small. It’s a good idea to save gradually and supplement your emergency fund with extra money when you receive it. A tax refund is a great way to add to it.
Save for short-term or long-term goals
Whether you’re saving for a
down payment on a house, adding to your retirement savings or planning for a dream vacation after the pandemic, it’s important to develop a savings plan to reach your objectives. Identifying your goals and understanding how much money you need to achieve them can help you decide how to allocate extra money. Putting your tax refund towards them while continuing to make regular, smaller contributions, can help you reach your goals faster. The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada provides unbiased and fact-based information you can count on.
