Affordable Mini Makeovers for the Holidays

The season for indoor gatherings has arrived and everyone is looking for ways to bring the excitement into their homes. With tighter budgets available for remodeling, choosing paint for your mini-make over projects may be the smartest way to "go new." Here are the top ways you can mini-makeover your kitchen: Refinish countertops: An overwhelming percentage of U.S. homeowners want granite tops because of their natural elegance, but unfortunately, the huge remodeling commitment and high price for granite results in buyer hesitation. Now you can paint over your outdated countertops with granite paint. Giani Granite provides countertop paint kits that include everything you need to refinish your counters, reviving your outdated kitchen. Paint stainless: Old and outdated appliances are a large eyesore for many kitchens, but buying new is often financially difficult. For those stuck in a pinch, try paint. Thomas' Liquid Stainless Steel is made with 100 percent stainless steel in an automotive grade, clear resin. You no longer need to replace refrigerators, stoves, dishwashers and cabinet hardware with expensive new stainless steel to have a modern look. Find stainless steel paint options at liquidstainlesssteel.com.

Floor finishing: Cork and plywood flooring are inexpensive options and can be cut for a tiled or plank look. These low-cost flooring alternatives offer plenty of personalization options such as painting, staining, whitewashing, stenciling or simply coating with polyurethane to make the floor unique in your home.

Frozen Pipe Repair

If you think your pipes have frozen, you need to act quickly to get them unfrozen or risk having the pipe burst from the internal pressure. Once a pipe burst it can send hundreds of gallons of water gushing into your home within just hours and if you’re not home to catch it the damage can be quite extensive. The first thing you will need to do is find the frozen pipe. If the pipe is an exposed pipe it will be easier to access and easier to defrost than a pipe that is behind a wall or in the ceiling. You may need to consider cutting a section of wall or ceiling away to access the frozen pipe if it is concealed. Once you find the pipe you will need to check it for bulging or cracks. A pipe with cracks or beginning to bulge is near its breaking point and can burst at any time so you will need to do a few things quickly to avoid disaster.

If your house has trouble with frozen pipe repair, Rhode Island professionals are ready to help you. For more information visit www.puroclean.com or call 866-787-6474.

The most highly recommend method to defrost your pipe is a hair dryer set to a high setting. Keep the air moving along the pipe working your way from the area of the main intake to the frozen

You can also try wrapping hot wet rags to the pipe but don’t pour hot water over the pipes; the sudden thaw from pouring water over the pipes, can cause the pipe to burst. And of course as tempting as it may be to do so, don’t use an open flame to defrost the frozen pipe. Not only will an open flame work to quickly it is also a dangerous idea. Many homes have been burned and damaged from homeowners attempting to use a torch to melt their pipes only to lose control and cause a fire. (ArticlesFactory.com)

The first thing you will need to do before you do anything else is locate your main water shut off valve. You will need to be able to get to this quickly if your pipes burst before you can defrost them so it’s a good idea to have someone at the ready to shut off the water supply.

area. Keep moving your hair dryer, being careful not to concentrate to long in any one area. If the pipe is close to a wall you can try and put a metal cookie sheet behind the pipe to reflect the heat of the hair dryer back onto the pipe and make the make the job a little easier.

Paint cabinets and trim: New touches to your kitchen can be applied with finishing paint on dingy cabinets, shelving, doors, trim and woodwork. Painting over outdated polyurethane and varnish surfaces is now possible without using a primer. Using a tough yet smooth finishing paint is especially important for these smaller - often overlooked accents that make or break the final look of a kitchen.

Help For

Homeless Vets

The Department of Veterans Affairs is reaching out to homeless Veterans by providing free meals and spending money to eligible homeless Veterans. “VA is committed to ending homelessness for our Veterans who defended our nation. I am pleased the Canteen Service has added these incentives that help Veterans get off the streets and into the care and housing they need,” said Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric K. Shinseki.

• Not using a dimmer. Lighting controls have several advantages over on/off switches—starting with savings. A $20 dimmer pays for itself within the first year.

“A free meal and a few free items may not seem like much, but it can be a world of difference to a person getting back on their feet and seeking recovery and independence,” said VCS Director Marilyn Iverson.

Top 5 Low

Homeowners don’t have to be in the dark when it comes to avoiding common lighting mistakes. Here are several examples and tips on how to avoid them:

Homegain.com asked nearly 600 real estate agents nationwide to reveal their top 5 low cost, do-it-yourself home improvements for those preparing to sell their home. The results, based on average cost and return on investment: 1. Cleaning and de-cluttering 2. Lightening and brightening 3. Home staging 4. Landscaping 5. Repair electrical or plumbing

• Not installing landscape lighting. With the proper lighting, your home can look even more

Take the width of the room, add it to the length of the room, turn that measurement from feet to inches — that is a good approximation of how wide the fixture should be. Also, make sure the bottom of your dining room fixture is 30” off the table.

The free meals will be offered at Veterans Canteen Service (VCS) cafeterias to homeless Veterans attending their first VA medical appointment. New Veterans participating in the Housing and Urban Development and VA Supportive Housing program who present signed leases will also receive a $20 coupon to be used in VCS retail stores located at every VA medical center.

Tips to Get

Your Home Ready for Winter

It may not be winter yet, but do not wait for it to arrive to start getting the house ready for the coldest months of the year.

Preparing a home for winter will take time and should not be rushed. Neglecting certain projects or carelessly completing them can lead to major system failures, extensive damage and in extreme cases even health problems. "Procrastinating can cost you when it comes to getting ready for winter," says Rhonda Hills, of Kudzu.com. "Systems that are not ready for heavy use can falter or even fail. This can be a recipe for disaster." The home experts at Kudzu.com recommend the following actions to get the home ready for the cooler temperatures ahead.

Central New York

Have the chimney inspected and cleaned - If you have a wood-burning fireplace, the inside of the chimney can be a dirty place, and this has the potential to cause some problems if not addressed. Over time a combustible material called creosote can build up on the inside of the chimney. If not regularly removed, this substance can catch fire, causing major damage to the home and resulting in serious injuries or even death. Chimneys should be inspected and cleaned by a professional

at least once a year to ensure all creosote is removed and the chimney is ready for use. Get the furnace serviced - Heating systems will be putting in a lot of overtime as the temperatures plummet, and it is important to have them serviced so they can handle the load. Well maintained systems will operate more efficiently, which lowers heating costs. They will have a longer lifespan too. During an inspection, the heating expert will evaluate and clean the heat exchanger, ensure the burners and pilots ignite properly, clean the system's blower and more. Seal all air ducts - Air ducts can be punctured, torn or become disconnected, all of which will cause heated air to spew into the attic, basement or crawlspace before it reaches the home's interior. These leaks waste a lot of energy and can cause heating bills to be much higher than they should be. To ensure all of the heated and cooled air that is being paid for makes its way into the living space, patch and repair all ducts as soon as possible. Add insulation - According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 80 percent of homes built before

1980 are not well insulated, so chances are your home is not as insulated as it should be. Adding insulation is one of the fastest, cheapest ways to retain heat and save on heating bills. Insulation is available in a variety of materials and is rated by R-values, or how well the insulation resists the transfer of heat. Insulation needs will vary by region and are dependent on local climate conditions and heating costs. Protect pipes and exterior faucets - Freezing temperatures can wreak havoc on pipes and exterior faucets. As water freezes, it expands and can burst plumbing lines and fixtures. These ruptures cause a great deal of damage to the home and leave homeowners with some very expensive repairs. Before cooler temperatures settle in, wrap all exposed plumbing in insulation to ensure the pipes are ready for the worst Old Man Winter can dish out.

Garden Accents

for the Holidays

As autumn fades and winter draws near, homes begin to reflect the approaching holiday season. For many of us, the cooler weather also signifies a lifestyle change. In the south, cooler temperatures make this a great time of year for gardening and outdoor entertaining. For northerners, winter brings snow sports and indoor activities. Regardless of your region, you can decorate for the approaching holidays by bringing the beauty of the outdoors in. Use natural elements from the yard and garden to create a festive decor to not only recycle nature's bounty, but also perk up your home for winter entertaining.

Outside: In the north, annuals and perennials are done for the year. But, there are still plenty of other ways to add color and interest to an outdoor space. After removing all the remains of the summer flowers, take a long look at the remaining landscape and add focal points. Is the front door the main area of interest? Feature a lovely evergreen with a light dusting of snow. Solar landscaping lights in containers work great next to the front door with a spot light angled to accent that beautiful tree. Want the apartment balcony to express a festive spirit? Set the mood and accent the desired focal points by incorporating other creative lighting. Try a string of festive

lights across the balcony and evergreens in decorative pots. Live evergreens of every size and shape are abundantly available in most areas at this time of year. You can easily plant them in yards in warmer regions, or pop them into a container to be placed on the front steps or along the walkway to welcome guests. Many types of these evergreens are available in most home improvement stores nationwide. Add your own lights for a personal touch. Create your own topiary form by using chicken wire to structure a simple cone shape. Then, simply tuck in some moss or a few branches of greenery. Ask for some discarded branches that have been trimmed from Christmas trees at the local nursery or tree farm. Place your topiary in a large pot and wrap with twinkle lights to welcome guests to the front door. Come spring, transplant these trees in the yard with Miracle-Gro Garden Soil.

Inside: Invite guests with fragrances of the season with well-placed potpourri or bits of cut evergreens. Pair the freshly cut boughs of evergreen with

Selling FSBO? This year, more than ever, is not the time to go it alone. Buyers have many homes to choose from. A realtor provides maximum exposure, screens prospects, has contacts with attorneys, home inspectors, surveyors, lenders, contractors. We guide you through the maze of contracts, disclosures, marketing, setbacks and myriad of details. More than ever, you need a friend on your side; someone who knows the market, the risks, the ropes.

Use elements from nature that are unexpected for a splash of creativity. Dried flowers can simply be tucked into the boughs of a Christmas tree for an extra pop of festivity. Nuts are for more than just snacking; add them to the decorating mix for a surprise. Drill holes through acorns, walnuts or pecans and string them into a woodsy garland. Do not forget to use potted plants for decorating as well. Small live herbs trimmed in topiary forms can easily add a festive feel and fragrance to your home. Potted plants also make great hostess gifts and provide a beautiful bloom all year long.

Then, place on the mantle, hang over the banister or use as a centerpiece for a table. Incorporate fruit such as apples, oranges, lemons, limes or pomegranates into garlands or floral arrangements for a fresh, fruity twist.

Battling Ice and Snow? Choose the Right Weapons Most homeowners are accustomed to using salt to clear ice from sidewalks and driveways in the winter. But over the past decade, the variety of ice melt products has greatly increased.

What used to be a simple salt purchase has now become a confusing choice between salt, salt alternatives and salt blends.

"All ice melters work in basically the same way, by lowering the temperature at which water freezes," says Jerry Poe, technical director for North American Salt Company, which markets the Safe Step line of residential ice melters. "But many of today's ice melt products provide a host of benefits beyond simply melting ice." Rock salt is the old standby. Economical and reliable, it easily melts ice in temperatures down to 5 degrees Fahrenheit and keeps sidewalks and driveways clear and safe. Rock salt is particularly good for moderate climates and is safe to handle and store. But, be sure to use it carefully around landscaping, as some plants might be sensitive to chlorides.

If homeowners need strong ice melting power and have landscaping or concrete concerns,

Magnesium chloride also works well for households with pets. Because it is gentler than other ice melt products, it doesn't burn paws that have been cracked in cold temperatures, and it is less likely to clump between a pet's paw pads. Whether you're looking for low melting temperatures, environmental friendliness or a combination of both, today's variety of ice melt products can meet those needs. A bit of education and planning can help you have a safe and enjoyable winter. (ARA) www.Life and Homes .com

L i f e and H o m e s

Calcium chloride also works well in colder

Ice melt blends are another option for homeowners that can be economical and may also provide some additional benefits beyond simply melting ice. Blends typically contain rock salt mixed with magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, and other additives to provide enhanced melting power, protection for concrete surfaces, safety for pets and even coloring to assist with even application.

Poe says magnesium chloride is the best choice. It's safer than calcium chloride, and it's available to homeowners as a 100 percent magnesium chloride formula as well as in ice melt blends.

â–

Because magnesium chloride's natural form has water molecules attached to it, it dissolves quickly to make brine. The brine spreads through the melting ice, breaking the ice's bond with the driveway or sidewalk, and it works for longer periods of time than many other ice melters.

temperatures, but it requires homeowners to wear goggles and gloves when applying it to concrete because it can burn skin. It can also cause more damage to landscaping and concrete, and it produces a slippery residue that can be difficult to remove if tracked indoors.

December

For colder, more severe climates, salt alternatives such as magnesium chloride or calcium chloride offer increased melting power. Magnesium chloride is an excellent choice for homeowners. It melts ice in temperatures as low as minus 15 degrees Fahrenheit, yet it is gentle on landscaping and concrete. It also produces minimal residue, so it is less likely to be tracked indoors, and if it is, it is easily cleaned up with water.
