Boulder housing market: No. 1 for stability and growth BOULDER – When it comes to stable growth in single-family home real estate, Boulder and Colorado are crushing it. Three of the top 10 most stable housing markets for growth and stability in the U.S. are in Colorado, according to the 2016 SmartAsset study of singlefamily home data. Boulder came out way ahead (37 percentage points) of the closest contender in the analysis, ranking for the second year in a row as the No. 1 housing market of the 358 largest urban markets in the U.S. Boulder’s overall growth rate is 308 percent since 1991. Since 1990, home prices have grown an average of four percent per year and are approaching a price level that has nearly quadrupled. Even more important to many homeowners, the study shows the odds in Boulder of a five percent loss in home price are zero percent. The odds are based on last year’s analysis showing that the average homeowner in Boulder hasn’t suffered any significant price declines in the last 25 years. The 2016 study revealed that the Boulder metro area has the highest average home appreciation of any U.S.
Housing markets with the most stable growth
TOM KALINSKI RE/MAX of Boulder city. This is the second year for the SmartAsset study. The No. 2 metro area, Austin-Round Rock, TX, has grown 271 percent overall since 1991. Like Boulder, this metro area has a zero percent chance of losing five percent in home price. Rounding out the Colorado contingent are No. 6 ranked Fort Collins with 246 percent overall growth since 1991 and No. 9 ranked Denver-AuroraLakewood with 270 percent overall growth in the same time period. Both of these metros are new to the SmartAsset top 10 list. Home price growth in the Fort Collins metro area has been fairly steady. On average, homeowners had a five percent chance of seeing their home values decline by five percent if they bought homes at any point in the last 25 years. While the Denver-
(Courtesy of SmartAsset.com)
Aurora-Lakewood metro area has seen a 270 percent total growth rate, home prices have also dropped significantly at times during that period, increasing the odds of losing more than five percent in home price to 17 percent. The West is leading the rest of the U.S. in stable and growing housing markets. Six Western metro areas made the top 10, with three of those showing no significant price declines since 1991. Last year, five of the housing markets with the most stable growth were located in the West. Rising home values allow homeowners to build
equity in their homes. But stable growth is generally considered to be better than a rapid rise in prices followed by a decline, says the SmartAsset report. SmartAsset calculated the most stable growth based on the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s home price index for single-family homes in the 358 largest urban markets. The study focused on homebuyers who had purchased homes at any point between the first quarter of 1991 and the first quarter of 2016. Two factors were analyzed: the overall home price growth rate since 1991 (growth factor) and
the average odds that a homeowner in a particular market would have experienced significant price declines within the decade after buying a home (stability factor). In order for a price decline to be significant, home prices in any quarter within 10 years had to fall by at least five percent relative to the original home price.

How a Senior Real Estate Specialist can help homeowners 50+ By Emma Castleberry, At Home price,” Stodder says. “You can get it with all the bells and whistles you want and afford it and still not have a mortgage payment.” As an SRES, Stodder says she has built a network of other services to help people 50+ who are selling their home. “I think a big part of it is knowing their options,” she said. “Knowing lawyers or estate planners that they may need to speak to and different institutions that might be able to help them.” Diane Stow, a SRES with RE/MAX Alliance in Longmont, says that providing seniors with these resources is a major part of her job. “It’s our responsibility to give them multiple resources for reliable providers - a handyman, a painter, an electrician,” she said. “We’re not expecting them to find those people because seniors are an easy target for service contractors.”
LONGMONT – There are unique real estate challenges for those over the age of 50. As a Senior Real Estate Specialist with ERA Tradewind, Tamara L. Stodder is very familiar with these challenges. “Often, you are selling the home that you have lived in forty years or more,” Stodder says. “It’s such a drastic change for them.” Over a year ago, Stodder decided to become an SRES designee to better serve the aging population. To obtain this designation, she did several hours of coursework online that covered financing, communication with families and seniors, and reverse mortgages, among other things. Reverse mortgages can be especially useful for people over 50 who are downsizing from a large family home. “New builds are pricey, but if you buy it with a reverse mortgage, it’s a percentage of the
SRES can also help older sellers avoid loan scams that target people over 50 and make decisions about purchasing a new home. “The designation helps us to be more aware of issues that seniors face that we may not be aware of if we hadn’t taken the course,” says Stow. “It also helps us to advise them as to whether buying after they sell is a good choice or whether they may want to go into a senior community where they don’t own.” Stow, who has worked in real estate for over 25 years, said the SRES designation has been incredibly useful for her in her work with clients over the age of 50. “Our designation helps us to be more empowering to the senior and keep their dignity in the transaction,” she said. “I learned
a lot about what is important to seniors and their rights. I found it invaluable.” A SRES is trained and educated in the nuances of buying and selling homes for seniors. If you are over 50 and considering a real estate transaction, you can find an SRES in your area at seniorsrealestate.com.

Why is my house not selling? LOVELAND - Word on the street is that it’s a hot seller’s market - but your home isn’t selling. You’re probably guessing that something isn’t quite right. Here are several reasons why your home may not be selling and some tips on what you can to do make your home more attractive to potential buyers. Overpriced? Pricing is critical in all markets – hot or not. Overpriced homes have a tendency to sit on the market a lot longer and grow stale over time. Make sure your listing is competitively priced. You don’t want to lose the interest of potential buyers by starting off too high and keeping it there without receiving any
offers. Overpricing also helps your competitors sell their homes quicker because their home appears to be a better value than yours. Get a realistic understanding of where the price should be given competition and market conditions. It doesn’t show well? Something about the property may be deterring buyers. Now is the time to take stock of how you are presenting your home and its selling points. Perhaps you need to reevaluate furniture placement and/ or de-clutter the space by placing items in storage. Have you taken care of all necessary repairs? Is there something you can do to make the décor more amenable to
SUZANNE PLEWES RE/MAX Alliance
buyers – maybe consider a neutral color palette on the walls? What about landscaping? Is your lawn properly groomed and property maintained? Never underestimate the importance of first impressions and presentation. Not marketed properly? Just as pricing is critical
to selling - so too is how your home is marketed. That is why working with an experienced Realtor is so important! Take advantage of their expertise in the field and their experience with buyers. Is your property description appealing to buyers and targeting key features? Are you getting maximum exposure by placing the listing in MLS (multiple listing service) and syndicating to all real estate websites? Make sure you follow your Realtor’s advice for how to best market your property for sale. Easy to show? Buyers may be interested in your home, but if they cannot easily schedule a showing,
then you are limiting your exposure. Avoid complicated showing instructions and lengthy showing notices (i.e. Two days notice to schedule appointments). Active buyers who are ready to act will want to see your home fairly quickly. The easier you make that process, the better! Above are just a few common reasons why your home may not be selling. Every property is a little different. Suzanne Plewes is a broker associate at RE/MAX Alliance Write to 750 W.

Transit-oriented development living By Saul F. Rosenthal, for the Colorado Association of Realtors DENVER – What is transit-oriented development? Is it right for me? Over the last 20 years many cities have introduced or expanded their mass transit systems to provide an alternative to automobile transportation. Express bus lines and light rail are two examples we have seen in Colorado of the effort to shift people from driving to riding. Transit-oriented development (TOD) is a style of community development that combines housing, office, retail and other amenities into a walkable neighborhood within a short (generally less than half a mile) distance of quality public transportation. Research by the Center for Transit-Oriented Development shows that by 2030 nearly a quarter of all US households
looking to rent or to buy are likely to want higher-density housing near transit. The Urban Land Institute has also noted the changing real estate market: ULI’s annual “Emerging Trends in Real Estate” report has ranked locations near transit as a best bet for investors five years in a row. Living in a TOD has many benefits to both the city and the people who choose to live there. For the city, TODs reduce traffic and, thereby, air pollution. The increased ridership on public transportation that comes from TODs adds revenue through fares. The potential exists for increased property values and taxes as TODs establish themselves and expand. TODs can have a significant impact on employment. When less than half of the available jobs in an area are not accessible by

public transportation, workers who cannot afford a car are at a severe disadvantage in finding employment to support themselves and their families. TODs often have a mix of housing, including affordable options, which makes them attractive to less mobile parts of the workforce. For those who choose to live in TODs, they can enjoy a more walkable and healthy lifestyle. Freed of the expenses of driving everywhere, TOD dwellers may have more household income available for other purposes. And traveling to and from work or school from a TOD is likely to save time over driving in many cities. A survey conducted in 2015 by the Chicago Transit Authority found that the top three reasons people choose to live in TODs are (1) safety, (2) access to transit and (3) walkability of the area. And who are those people? Generally they are either younger (e.g.,
Generation Y and Millennials) or older, empty-nesters. TOD living is not for everyone, particularly “traditional families” who require more space. The density of TODs, which is what makes them affordable and all-inclusive, won’t appeal to everyone. Restaurants and other amenities will be within walking distance, but they may be more crowded than in suburban areas. Schools in the area may have fuller classrooms. TOD living isn’t about backyards and tending to a garden, it’s about a more urban, shared environment. Ask your Realtor® if TOD is right for you. Visit a few locations to get a feel for the lifestyle and ride the train or bus to see if you enjoy getting to work or the theater downtown that way.

DESIGN RECIPES
Going light and bright for summer By Cathy Hobbs, Tribune News Service (TNS) The summer is typically the time of year when we dress in lighter and brighter clothing. It is also an equally good time to utilize softer, lighter colors in the home. Lighter colors instantly give a space a feeling of being crisp, fresh and clean. Light colors can also make smaller rooms feel larger. Where to begin When decorating or deciding what colors to bring into any space, begin by evaluating a space from the doorway to get a full perspective. From there, decide what will be the largest pieces in the room and begin with those. For example, select the color and material for your sofa before selecting your coffee table, or select your
bed before selecting your nightstands. Why neutral? In general, choosing light or lighter colors for your upholstery pieces are the way to go. Light colors blend well with other colors, are versatile and can be used as a canvas from which a color palette can be created or built. Neutral colors are also timeless as opposed to trendy. As a result you will likely glean more use from your neutral selections. Light, bright and perfect for summer Often when most people think of light colors, they only think of white and taupe, but there are a host of other colors that perk up your decor.
Some great color options include: – Light gray – Muted gold – Taupe – Soft blue – Light pink When looking to bring accessories such as pillows and artwork into a space, don’t be afraid to go light and bright as well. A light painting on a wall, for example, can really add a lot of light to a room.

LIVING SMART
Start planning before building a patio Before paying the deposit to build a new patio, take a moment and step outside. Look at the paths leading to the backyard. Any trees or bushes blocking access might require trimming or removal to make room for equipment needed for the job. Also, which way is the wind blowing? That’s important to know if you plan to add a barbecue grill, outdoor kitchen or fire pit. Guests won’t enjoy spending an evening with smoke in their faces. The key to building a patio that holds up for years involves creating a detailed plan before breaking ground. A qualified contractor can design that plan, and answer questions you might not think to ask, such as why wind direction matters. “I’ve never had one person think (about) which way the wind blows,” says Robert Harmon, president of Elite Home Remodeling in Columbus, Ohio. Finding and working with a patio contractor The right patio contractor should

listen to your needs, and create a plan or suggest alternatives. They can also anticipate potential problems before construction begins. For example, building a patio facing south or west means the sun will bear down in the afternoon, which could cause problems if you plan to regularly cook out in the evening. A skilled patio contractor can suggest a new spot for the patio, or explain how a pergola or awning provides shade, Harmon says. “The contractor should be providing different options,” Harmon says.
ASK THE EXPERT BOULDER – Replacing a roof can be quite an investment. Most lenders and insurance companies require that the roof be included in a home inspection. These companies want to protect their investments and as a buyer you don’t want to be stuck with a bill that you weren’t expecting. A roof inspection report is based on visible evidence, which can often be gathered in part without July 15-16, 2016

Also, talk with prospective contractors about how the patio could be used in the future. If you hope to eventually build an outdoor kitchen or connect a grill to natural gas, consider adding a natural gas line as part of the project. Otherwise, you might have to break apart and rebuild the patio in the future. Be cautious of contractors who try to talk you into a vastly different project without providing an explanation, or quote a price without providing specifics about the job. Vet potential contractors by looking at their previous work. Then, ask
about the cost, time and types of labor involved. Hardscaping often leads to landscaping Before construction begins, take your lawn and landscaping into consideration. Contractors likely won’t be driving concrete trucks into your backyard, but they will use heavy equipment to help with digging and gravel placement. This equipment can range between six and eight feet wide and weigh 5,000 and 10,000 pounds, says Will Mattingly, head of operations for Mattingly Concrete Inc. in Indianapolis.
Roof inspections
walking on the roof. The report should include how much of the roof was inspected and where it was inspected from. Items that your inspector should list in the report include, but are not limited to; cracked caulk or rust spots on flashing, shingles that are buckling, curling, or blistering; masses of moss and lichen (which could signal the roof is decaying underneath), missing or broken shingles, cracked and worn rubber boots
around vent pipes, missing or damaged chimney cap. An inspection of the underside of the roof from the attic can reveal possible leaks or weak spots. Other indicators of possible or potential roof problems are: dark areas on ceilings, damp spots alongside fireplaces, water stains on pipes venting the furnace or water heater, peeling paint on the underside of roof overhangs. Having a wellmaintained roof is one of
Making enough room for that equipment often means clearing trees, bushes and other items from the path to the backyard. Laying plywood strips can limit damage to the lawn, though grass seed, straw or topsoil might also be needed to repair damaged sections of grass, Mattingly and Harmon say. “Typically, with almost any patio project, a small- to medium-size landscaping project should be anticipated when the project is complete,” Mattingly says. Inform your neighbors Lastly, tell your neighbors about the project. Building a patio can be as invasive as installing a pool. It’s best to address concerns your neighbors have about how the project could affect their properties. “You really want to keep your neighbors happy while you’re doing these projects,” Mattingly says. Tom Lange is a reporter at Angie’s List, a trusted provider of local consumer reviews and an online marketplace of services from top-rated providers. most states, a properly installed and ventilated roof can last 20 years or more.

HOME AND GARDEN
Tiny Psyllids mean big trouble for tomatoes BOULDER COUNTY – There’s a pest that shows up now and again that does so much damage to tomatoes and potatoes that gardeners shudder whenever you mention its name. Like ghost stories around a campfire, we tell tales of the last time the insect showed up in high numbers, and scare each other with dire predictions of when it will next arrive. Sadly, that ghost story has come to life. Potato/tomato psyllids are back and ready to wreak havoc on our love apples. Tomatoes top the list for most kitchen gardeners, and with thousands of them blanketing the area, it’s no wonder the Front Range is a hot place for psyllids to take their summer vacation. These tiny tomato boogeymen have begun assaulting plants this season in what may be the vanguard of thousands of migrating psyllids (Bactericera cockereli). Dr. Whitney Cranshaw,
CAROL O’MEARA
Colorado State University Extension, Boulder County Professor of Entomology at Colorado State University, has seen large numbers of these insects several parts of the state, including Larimer County. Sightings of the insect have also been reported in Longmont, Louisville and Boulder gardens. The aphid-sized adults are lovely little things, with jewel-
toned eyes and dark abdomens banded in white. Their young, yellow at hatching, gradually turn green with each molt; being flat and elliptical they look like scale. Though adults move about actively and fly in migration, the young are sedentary, content to sit quietly, feed, and excrete white, waxy frass that resembles sugar. This is their waste, called lerps, and is an easy to see clue that your plant is being attacked. With their arrival in our area, gardeners are prepping for battle; these small, winged sap-feeding insects have toxic saliva that causes tomatoes and potatoes to grow oddly. Stunting, color changes, and strangely shaped fruit or spuds are a calling card of the insect. Start scouting your plants, carefully checking them for insects or their signature sugarlike droppings every three days until you spot signs of trouble. Psyllids can mean big problems for tomatoes, so at the first sign of them begin spraying plants with spinosad or insecticidal soap to keep them at bay. Coverage of both upper and lower leaf surfaces is crucial to control, and may not be enough. Several diseases show up in gardens at this time. Green plants turning blonde by yellowing from the lower leaves upward should be closely examined. If they have brown spots with concentric
rings, suspect early blight (Alternaria solani). Water, insects, and gardeners spread this fungus. Pick off diseased leaves and keep the ground free of debris. Dust healthy leaves with sulfur to shield them from infection. Once the plants have gotten three feet tall, pluck off leaves in the lower foot to prevent the spreading climb of the fungus. Give plants room to grow without crowding them, and use drip irrigation to prevent splashing water. Black, sunken, rotten spots on the bottom of fruit are blossom end rot, a disorder caused by poor uptake of calcium. Though calcium is plentiful in our soil, irregular watering and excessive heat prevent the plant from using it. The key to control is watering consistently, so use a timer to automatically turn on and off the irrigation. Mulch plants to keep the soil from drying out too rapidly. Colorado State University Extension, together with Boulder County Parks and Open Space, provides unbiased, research-based information about consumer and family issues, horticulture, natural resources, agriculture and 4-H youth development. For more information contact Extension at the Boulder County Fairgrounds, 9595 Nelson Rd., Box B, Longmont, 303.678.6238, or visit the CSU Extension web site at ext.colostate.edu/boulder.

Save energy in urban areas - install sod LONGMONT – As the summer heat continues, it is important to understand why urban areas are hotter than rural areas. Urban areas may be five to eight degrees warmer than rural green areas where trees and turfgrass cover most of the surface (Duble, 1996). Turfgrass has been proven to reduce high levels of radiant heat found in urban areas. Research indicates that the front lawns of eight houses have the cooling effect of about 70 tons of air conditioning, while the average home has an air conditioner with only three or four tons of capacity. A few degrees difference in temperatures around houses will save significant energy and thus reduce cost. Turfgrass has also proven to possess a positive cooling effect when compared to other surfaces including dry soil and synthetic surfaces. “During the heat of the summer it’s great to know that the grass
that increases our property values and adds enjoyment to life is also lowering our energy requirements,” notes Steve Korby, President of the Rocky Mountain Sod Growers. “Removing grass isn’t wise in the long run,” he said. “By trying to decrease water usage, consumers end up increasing energy use based upon a misunderstanding of how much water grass actually requires.” Korby continues, “It should be noted that turfgrass also absorbs harsh sounds much better than common surfaces found in urban landscapes such as gravel, pavement or bare ground.” Studies have shown that bluegrass absorbs sound even better than a heavy carpet on a felt pad (Potter, 1998). Turfgrass also reduces glare. Buildings, concrete walks and glass reflect significantly more light than turfgrass does and any excess water percolates through the soil back into the aquifer to recharge

it. Grass prevents heat Understanding the actual water requirements for grass is important. While bluegrass has a reputation for being water hungry, it actually does well on less water and can go dormant during drought. “People tend to overwater their grass. Learning
how much water to apply is the key. Removing grass isn’t the answer. Watering properly is. It’s worth learning about to preserve our landscape and save energy,” Korby says. “Properly installed sod provides many benefits,” he adds. For more information on water requirements and other facts about turfgrass visit sod-growers.com.

Eight simple decor updates that can transform any room By Sacha Strebe, Domaine (TNS) Are you ready for a room refresh but have more dash than cash? You’re not alone. Our wallets are often less enthusiastic about our aesthetic needs and desires than our hearts, but that doesn’t mean you have to forgo it altogether. Sometimes all you need is a micro makeover. After all, a few simple updates and minor tweaks are all it takes to transform your space from meh to magnificent. And it doesn’t need to break the bank. Interior designer Max Humphrey believes every stylish room only needs three things; books, layers, and art. “They’re the single most important design accessory there is,” he told MyDomaine. “Layers because minimal rooms are boring, and art because it adds personality and says something about you that furniture never can. And it doesn’t have to be expensive art.” We quizzed Max, along with Krista Schrock and David John Dick, co-founders of DISC Interiors, for more affordable updates you can carry out in snap. Living room If you’re looking for a low-cost upgrade with high impact, Humphrey says to add a bar. “There are tons of bar carts out there, new and vintage, or just use the top of a sideboard and some cool trays,” he adds. “They’re fun to style with vintage glassware, monogrammed napkins, and colorful bottles; your friends will love it too.” Humphrey says moving your furniture away from the wall will really give it that transformative effect on a dime. “You can get that designer-y look and create an intimate conversation space by 18

pattern with wallpaper or a patterned shower curtain, but we love to bring in graphic mirrors, such as this black-andwhite mirror from Made Goods, that become a new focal point. It’s an easy way to refresh the bathroom.”
Moving furniture away from the wall will really give the room a transformative effect on a dime.
floating everything off the wall,” he said. “Even just a few inches.” If you really want to define the space, Humphrey recommends buying an area rug that’s big enough to fit all the furniture on. You’ll be amazed how this simple move makes a massive difference. But what if your furniture is looking lackluster? It’s not always convenient to replace these big-ticket items, but Dick and Schrock said you don’t have to. Just reupholster your existing pieces in new fabrics and textiles to introduce color or pattern in a new way. “It can completely re-energize a room,” the said. “For a recent project in Santa Monica, we took their existing chair from Design Within Reach and selected a textile to update the chair’s look and style.” Voila! Dining room The dining room is the jewel of the home. It’s where we feast every night, entertain our friends and families, and catch up on the day’s events. It’s
for this reason that the room needs to be special. The quickest, most costeffective way is to change out the overhead lighting. “Apartments always come with terrible pendant lights,” said Humphrey. “You can find a cool new or vintage pendant or chandelier at great prices, and it’s not hard to swap them out.” This simple switch applies to renters too. “Just keep the old pendant in a closet and reinstall it before you move out,” he adds. “You can take the new one to your next place. I’ve done this at every single one of my apartments, and it makes such a difference. Then add a dimmer switch for $10 from the hardware store.” If you’re not sure how to install one on your own, Humphrey says he looks up YouTube tutorials, but if you’re still not confident “just tip your superintendent a few bucks to do the work for you.” Bathroom While re-tiling is on the long-term agenda, we have a couple of thrifty
Bedroom Sleep is vital to our survival and our sanity, so the humble bedroom needs that comfort factor, with a dash of chic for the sweetest of dreams. If yours is looking a little nightmarish, Schrock and Dick say a quick bedding upgrade is all it takes to

solutions to ramp up that style dial fast. Buy yourself some cool embroidered hand towels,” says Humphrey. “Don’t let your guests dry their hands on the soggy bath towels hanging over the shower curtain rod. There are tons out there, or search eBay for vintage French linen ones with monograms. Don’t worry if they’re not your initials; it’ll just add mystery.” Need an update and a little more space? Schrock and Dick say you can have both with the installation of a decorative mirror. “Often, people bring in

ditch those the bad vibes and introduce new textures and color. “Early in our career, one of our clients told us she changed her pillows with the seasons, and we love this idea of bringing new life into a room simply by rotating linens and blankets to freshen up a room,” they said. “For bedding, decorative blankets and pillows are simple updates that make a big difference. We love shopping at Hollywood at Home and Serena & Lily.” July 15-16, 2016
Entryway As the first thing everyone sees when they enter, your foyer deserves a little love. While there are several ways to spruce up your entryway, both of our experts agree that wallpaper is one of the most transformative. “I’ve bought pre-pasted removable wallpaper online for very little money and installed it myself,” says Humphrey. “It’s not hard to do at all and you can get a totally custom entry like the ones you see and love in design magazines.” Humphrey says installation is easy, too. Just dunk the paper in the bathtub to activate the glue, and then stick it on the wall and trim to fit. “It’s nerve-wracking at first, but you get the hang of it,” he said. “If you’re in a rental, it’s really easy to peel off so you don’t get dinged for your security deposit.” Schrock and

merrier.” Framing can be costly, but Humphrey has a low-cost trick: “I used to buy art and photos from secondhand stores just for the cool frames and then swap out the art with stuff I like better,” he said.
While the obvious upgrade to any kitchen is to add a rug, Interior Designer Max Humphrey says greenery is the way to go.
Dick concur. “Wallpaper is visual eye candy, and it can really transform how a room feels,” they told us. Hallway Hallways can be long and vacuous when left untouched, but their narrow nature makes them fiddly to design around. This is where the gallery wall comes into play. “Hallways are great spots for gallery walls because
they’re contained spaces, so it’s easy to fill them up with frames,” said Humphrey. “Don’t overthink it,” he continued, “just pick out a few images online of gallery walls you admire and start hanging your frames. A good rule of thumb is to keep the same distance between frames consistent, but in the end, there really are no rules; the more frames the
Kitchen While the obvious (and much-loved) upgrade to any small kitchen is to add a rug, Humphrey says greenery is the way to go. “Houseplants are cheap and make every room brighter,” he said. “If you’re lazy like me, you won’t need to go far to water them since your sink is right there. I like using cool baskets as containers and just dropping the plant in there so I don’t have to deal with repotting them.” Nursery Decorating a nursery on a budget is challenging, but your bundle of joy deserves the best, right? One foolproof, cost-

effective way to change up your nursery is to paint the ceiling. Schrock and Dick slathered a muted pink on the ceiling of their client’s nursery, and it completely transformed the room. “At sunset, this whole room glows,” they say. But of course, this simple update applies to every room of the house. All you need is a can of paint and an afternoon spent painting with friends. “Everyone knows the trick of painting the walls of a room, but painting the ceiling adds something unexpected, draws the eye up, and also reminds us of one our favorite artists, James Turrell and his skyspaces,” say Schrock and Dick.

I would be lost without bookcases. Literally. Because all of Dan’s books, enough to keep a small village reading for decades, would bury me. And figuratively. Because I have found that bookcases are one of the most essential pieces of furniture ever made. They are not only arresting to look at, adding muchneeded bulk and beauty to a space, they are also amazing versatile. Bookcases can be used in just about every room in your home to add charm as they artfully collect all your stuff in one wellBookcases can be used in just about every room organized spot. in your home to add charm as they artfully collect Struggling with how all your stuff in one well-organized spot. to make the bookcases personality. in your home look their absolute Don’t be fooled by the prefix best?

stacks of books. Have a small piece of artwork you love? Prop it in an easel on a shelf. When picking interesting items to weave in and out of the books, think about creating a rotating display that highlights pieces from one of your collections. Whether you collect figurines or old cameras or vintage dishes, work in just a few pieces at a time so the display isn’t overwhelming. We also love to help families and grandparents design fun and functional rooms for kiddos. An essential is a good bookcase that helps corral toys, books and clothing. (Be sure to always anchor a bookcase to the wall for safety.) How can you put your personal stamp of your display? My favorite bookcase displays are like a window into your heart. When selecting what should go on your selves, pick a variety of personal treasures that help tell the story of your life. Work in snapshots of those you hold dear, mementos from a special vacation,
family heirlooms, books that reflect your hobbies or interests. When I visit people’s homes, the bookcases I gravitate to are the ones that show the soul of the family that lives there. To find interesting artifacts for your shelves, go through your cabinets and closets, opening boxes of mementos hidden away in their basements, and pull out things that are meaningful to you. To make it more fun, invite a friend to join you. Our friends sometimes are able to see our things with new eyes and show us just how cool they are. What balance is right for you? I’d love to pass on 3 tips or 4 steps for styling the perfect bookcase display, but I can’t. I don’t think great bookcase designs work that way. They should be individual and organic, reflecting your bliss, not a designer’s checklist. This column was adapted from Mary Carol Garrity’s blog at nellhills.com.

ASK THE CONTRACTOR
Off-the-shelf ideas for shower storage By Ed Del Grande, Tribune News Service (TNS) Q: Hi Ed, we plan to install a new shower stall and want a unit with built-in shelving. What choices do we have to get plenty of shower storage? We are open to tile or wall panels; the big issue is having extra shelving. – Donna, Michigan A: You’re in luck. Since removing a bath tub and installing a larger shower stall is now a popular trend, many companies are offering shower locker units as an additional option. Shower lockers can be molded into prefabricated wall panels or can be separate shelving units that can be incorporated with custom tile or solid surface shower stalls. It’s basically a tall and thin recessed locker unit with adjustable shelving to let you personalize and organize your shower storage. Other shower locker accessories can include deep baskets, hanger hooks and a foot-resting ledge, giving these locker units a leg up over standard shower shelving. July 15-16, 2016
