7 Savvy Moving

Tips For Newlyweds If you’re planning a wedding or you’ve just tied the knot, congratulations!

Getting ready to start the next chapter of your life with the one you love can be an exciting time, filled with anticipation about your future together.

Combining two households can take considerable planning and preparation, especially if both parties own troves of treasured possessions. As you are getting ready to make the transition into a single house or apartment, consider how the following suggestions may make your move easier.

Pare down possessions. After unwrapping your wedding gifts, take an objective look at your collective furniture, household goods, clothing and other items. Where do you see duplicates?

Whose décor are you more likely to use? Are those old clothes you’ve had since high school really worth keeping? Now is the time to be generous in donating unneeded items to a local charity (or selling them on Craigslist).

Nix the shopping blitz. Although those wedding checks and gift cards are burning a hole in your pocket, postpone your purchases until after you move so you don’t end up needlessly hauling them to your next locale.

DIY on the moving. Rather than shelling out a small fortune hiring a moving company, simply rent a truck that you can drive without a commercial license. As a rule of thumb, seek 150 cubic feet of space for the furnishings of each room in your present house; that means a 12- or 16-foot Penske rental truck should accommodate the contents of a small apartment or condo.

Remember to reserve your truck at least two weeks ahead, and ask for the discounts provided to AAA members and military personnel.

Invest in packing supplies. This is not the time to skimp by using flimsy containers, newspapers

newsShorts

and cheap tape to pack up your treasured belongings. Save yourself time and frustration later by picking up sturdy boxes, labels, tape and bubble wrap from your truck rental store so you can ensure everything arrives at its destination safe, unbroken and easy to unpack.

Party on. Inviting friends and family to help you with your move can be a win-win for all; many hands make light work when it comes to loading and unloading your truck, and you can offer incentives by springing for pizza and beverages at your new home afterward.

Learn how to load. Apply logistical strategy to filling up your moving truck, perhaps by following the guidelines offered by Penske’s Truck Wizard.

In general, heavier items should go in the back of the truck, with lighter items in front and on top.

Practice makes perfect. Driving a moving truck isn’t difficult, but it’s definitely different from driving a car or pick-up. Take time to familiarize yourself with those differences; for example, you must use your mirrors to navigate turns, you should avoid sudden stops or lane changes and give yourself extra time.

For more information about the advantages of renting your own moving truck visit PenskeTruckRental.com. (BPT)

Window Safety Week April 1-7

Each year in the U.S., window falls account for approximately 12 deaths and 5000 injuries to children ages 10 and under. Window fall tragedies can happen any time of the year but happen most frequently when the weather is nice and the windows are open.

Window guards and window stops should be installed to help prevent window falls. They can be easy to install and should have a release mechanism in the event of an emergency.

Window guards screw into the side of a window frame and have bars no more than 4 inches apart.

They are sold in different sizes for various size windows and adjust for width. Guards must meet requirements for spacing and strength and those that allow for escape in case of emergencies must be difficult for very young children to open.

Consumers can also purchase window stops which can be added to the window frame to prevent the window from opening more than 4 inches. Some new windows come with window stops already installed. Window guards are priced between $10 and $30 and have different configurations. Consumers should compare features to determine which guards best suit their needs. Window stops available at hardware stores cost about $2.

“Whether you live in a high rise or a single family home, a window guard can help prevent a tragedy,” said CPSC Chairman Ann Brown.

“Don’t depend on a screen alone to keep children safe.”

CPSC guidelines for preventing window falls are: • Guards should be installed in children’s bedrooms, parents’ bedroom, and other rooms where young children spend time.

• Or, install window stops that permit windows to open no more than 4 inches.

• Never depend on screens to keep children from falling out of windows.

• Whenever possible, open windows from the top - not the bottom.

• Keep furniture away from windows, to discourage children from climbing near windows.

Consumers should look for guards that have bars no more than 4 inches apart.

Contact the following companies for more information about purchasing window guards: John Sterling Corporation - (800) 367-5726, LL Building Products (800) 755-9392, Automatic Specialties (800) 445-2370

Cut Expenses

Not Corners On Your Bathroom Remodel In the last decade, we’ve seen something of a renaissance in home bathroom design. From an innovative use of materials to radically reimagined bathtubs and toilets, today’s bathrooms offer a dream space with comfort and convenience in a stylish package.

This dream, however, comes with a price tag. A mid-range bathroom remodel that includes a steel tub, a pressure-balanced shower, ceramic tile floor, vanity and integral sink could cost almost $20,000, and that’s for a 5-by-7 room. An upscale remodel might cost as much as $60,000!

But before this sticker shock scares you away, know there are secrets to saving money and still getting a beautiful bathroom. We sat down with Lynn Schrage, interior designer at Kohler Co. to learn some of her tips and tricks. Here are five of the best.

1. Find a focal point. You don’t need to have topof-the-line everything to create a stunning bathroom. Think in terms of what piece you want to be the star of your bathroom. Maybe you want it to be the sink, a freestanding bathtub or a spa steam shower. Pick one fixture that will draw the eye in and take center stage. You’ll be amazed at what this does for the overall effect.

2. Incorporate creative storage solutions. In remodeling a bathroom, it’s always exciting to stumble upon a solution that brings together the practical and the beautiful. This happens a lot when you try to figure out how to store toiletries, towels and more. Wall cabinets, wicker baskets, storage ladders and storage towers create charm and keep your essentials orderly.

3. A touch of luxury goes a long way. One of the most effective ways to create a stunning overall effect is to mix a touch of luxury with quality materials. For instance, coordinate wooden

newsShorts

cabinets with a tiled paneling treatment around the bathroom. Also ripe for coordination are choreograph shower panels with stone or porcelain tiles. Focusing and investing in these luxury elements while using quality material will help offset costs and give you the look you’ve dreamed of.

4. Select an integrated vanity top sink. Looking through your many choices of sinks, showerheads, toilets and other fixtures is downright inspiring, but sometimes it can be hard to know where to start. Of all the options available, consider setting your eye on a vanity top with sink mounted on any number of vanity styles you like. This combines style with functionality in a timeless design and cuts down on clean up and your installation cost.

5. Work with a professional. Many people who want to save on a bathroom remodel think the most economical way is to go it alone and take the DIY route. However, a professional designer can help you discover the style that fits your personality and budget - and help you avoid costly mistakes. For instance, Kohler’s Bathroom Design Service provides expert advice, 3-D bathroom renderings and logistical guidance.

Hit Reset with a Kitchen

Lighting Update

Ready for a redo? When it comes to home renovations, the first place on which most people focus their attention is the kitchen.

According to the American Lighting Association (ALA), popular trends in finish-outs and appliances are impacting kitchen lighting choices.

In general, kitchen design is trending toward the contemporary side. Jeff Dross, corporate director of education and industry trends for Kichler

Lighting, explains that homeowners with previously traditional taste are looking for more transitional products, while transitional homeowners are moving toward a soft contemporary décor.

And many of those with existing soft contemporary furnishings are switching to a more austere contemporary solution.

Countertops Impact Lighting: While granite is still used in entry- and mid-level homes, most highest-end countertops are now quartz-based, particularly with a matte finish, also sometimes called suede, honed or leathered. The mattefinish trend alleviates the tricky business of providing adequate illumination in kitchens without causing glare from glossy countertops that have been popular for the past decade.

Dark Appliances Require More Light: The use of black stainless appliances is on the rise, which eliminates unsightly fingerprints, but creates the need for additional light in the surrounding space. “Black stainless has lower reflectance than white or stainless steel appliances, making the room appear darker,” says Dross. “The trend toward more involved backsplash materials makes lighting even more important.”

Taller Ceilings Mean Taller Fixtures: Over the past 15 or so years, ceiling heights have become higher with 9 feet becoming the accepted minimum height. It is now common for North American homes to have ceilings 10 to 12 feet high.

That means taller sconces and taller chandeliers are necessary to fill the additional space.

“In addition to taller ceilings, center islands are now substantially bigger than in the past,” says Dross. “That means the tiny, mini-pendants that were all the rage a few years ago are disappearing.

Kitchens demand larger, taller pendants.”

Before jumping into a kitchen renovation, it is best to design a lighting plan to make sure your fixtures are the right size and style for your new space. A professional lighting consultant at your local ALA-member showroom can work with you to develop a plan and provide the most-upto-date lighting styles and technology. To find a list of nearby ALA showrooms, go online to americanlightingassoc.com. (NewsUSA)

103 State Street, Schenectady - For LEASE

Opportunity is truly knocking - in the heart of the downtown revival of Schenectady and across the street from the Mill Artisan District redevelopment project (craft brew producers/artisans business district with retail,restaurants and apartments.) This space (can be combined with 107 State St for addtl space) would be fantastic for many uses - think coffee shop, light food, office, professional space, massage, retail and the list goes on. Great exposed brick wall lends character to this fantastic space.
