KITCHEN AND BATH UPGRADES
U
pgrades happen for all kinds of reasons, but one of the most common purposes of a home renovation is to make essential spaces like kitchens and bathrooms more modern. Modernizing your spaces isn’t just about the aesthetic, although that is a major advantage, especially when it comes to resale value. Updating your kitchen and
Creative Living 76 Digestsize.indd 1
bath is also an opportunity to introduce new technology and enhancements that improve the function of these high-traffic rooms. Modern styles simplify everyday living and can make contemporary entertaining more enjoyable. The sleek lines of modern design lend themselves to a clean look, which is supported by hidden features that make organization easier.
6/15/21 3:31 PM
SMART TECHNOLOGY Although the idea of a connected home isn’t new, technology is steadily improving. This means smart features are now often more affordable, easily integrated into the rest of your home and available to help manage a wider range of household items. In the kitchen, you can add smart technology in numerous ways, from appliances and climate control to lighting and window treatments. For example, touch-to-open and push-to-open doors and drawers create a sleek, modern design while opening and closing with either a push or touch of a button for convenience. Similar diversity is available in the bathroom, where you can incorporate connected health and fitness monitors, touchless toilets, mirrors that double as information centers, towel warmers and even showers that automatically adjust to your preferred temperature. PAINT Changing the colors in a space is one of the most effective ways to transform the decor, but the walls aren’t the only place where paint can make a big impact, especially in rooms like the kitchen or bathroom, where the cabinetry can make a bold statement. Black is a hallmark of modern design and installing cabinetry with a black finish can instantly upgrade a room. To create visual interest, consider incorporating accent cabinets in a coordinating finish. For example, you could pair Wellborn Cabinet’s Midtown wall cabinets finished in Matte Ebony with upper center cabinets finished in Putty Oak. An island in Bel-Air can incorporate both dark and light tones for a cohesive look.
DECORATIVE RANGE HOODS An exposed range hood is a trendy look that can add sophistication to your kitchen. Treating this functional element as a statement piece gives you another place to showcase your style and create a sleek and modern look. If your hood is covered, consider making the cabinet door a focal point with a material such as back-painted glass. MULTI-PURPOSE SINKS While your sink has some obvious functions, you can upgrade the space for even more practical use. Some of the latest sink design innovations include built-in features such as cutting boards, colanders, bowls, drying racks and compost areas. In addition, motion activated wastebaskets with separate compost or recycling containers provide hands-free access to reduce unwanted messes. TOUCHLESS FAUCETS Public restrooms aren’t the only places you can benefit from a touchless faucet. At home, the feature may come in handy when your hands are full or filthy. An automatic water flow is convenient and can help keep germs and grime under control. For the most ontrend, modern look, coordinate your faucets with other bathroom elements finished in gold hues, such as a laminate veneer vanity in a high-gloss gold finish. FREE-STANDING TUBS A luxurious soaking tub is a top demand for many homeowners, and trends are moving toward free-standing options that create a focal point in an oasis-like bathroom. You may be envisioning an old-fashioned clawfoot style, but there are numerous modern takes on the traditional version that can fit seamlessly into your modern design scheme.

HOW TO WRITE A
Welcome Letter
TO THE NEW OWNER OF YOUR HOME
Creative Living 76 Digestsize.indd 3
6/15/21 3:31 PM
When it comes time to sell your first home, emotions may run high. Not only are you starting a new chapter in your life, but you are also closing one that may be full of memories. A letter from you to the new owners of your home is not only a great way to welcome them, but offers a therapeutic way for you and your family to say goodbye to your home and get closure.
Explain Why You Loved This Home Whether you’ve raised your family for over a decade in this house, or simply spent a few years before moving into something larger, there was a reason for you choosing this home in the first place. Maybe you loved the natural light in the bedrooms or the entertainment space in the kitchen. Whatever you love about the home, share this with the new owners so they can enjoy the same features. If you had a spare bedroom or garage that you used as an office or personal yoga studio, tell them how the space positively impacted your life. You never know—you may give them an idea for how to use a room that they wouldn’t have thought of before. Talk About the Neighborhood and Town Since the new owners of your home are likely not from your neighborhood, give them some general information about the area, such as garbage and recycling pickup days, nearby transportation (train station, bus top, etc.) or school bus stops for all ages. Also, if your street has street parking rules, it can be helpful to them to know this for visiting family and friends. Share your favorite restaurants in town (include menus!) and local businesses, whether it be the grocery store, pastry shop or even lawn and home maintenance companies. The new homeowners will appreciate that you took the time to put these together so they can jump right into their new life.
Give Neighborhood and Household Tips If you live in an HOA community or a neighborhood where mailboxes are in one location, share the best time to pick up HOA items or check the mailbox. For a neighborhood with a shared fitness center or community pool, give them tips on the best times of day to visit for maximum enjoyment. If you have recently renovated your home, attach any instruction manuals or guides for appliances to your letter. For painting projects, keep a spare can of paint in the basement or garage in case they need to touch up a scratch or scuff, as that is a common occurrence in a new move. Another helpful tip you can share is how to best load the dishwasher. Take a photo of your loaded dishwasher layout and attach it with the letter. Though this is not necessary, it may be helpful to a new homeowner who maybe never had a dishwasher or would simply appreciate a reference. Share a Few Favorite Memories If you know that the new homeowners moving in have a family or are planning to raise one, they may appreciate hearing a few of your favorite family memories. Tell them how many years you raised your children in this home and some of your favorite spots around the home where you read or played together. Maybe you used your patio or deck to host dinner parties, or hosted Thanksgiving dinner with extended family in the dining room—whatever the memory, it may help the new homeowners get excited for their memories and traditions to come.

SHOULD YOU PAY OFF YOUR MORTGAGE
BEFORE YOU RETIRE?
Your mortgage is probably your largest monthly expense. When you retire, you will have to get by on a fixed income. Eliminating your home loan payments before you stop working can make it easier to make ends meet after you retire. Before you decide to put extra money toward your mortgage, however, take a careful look at your entire financial picture to figure out if that’s the best option.
Creative Living 76 Digestsize.indd 6
6/15/21 3:31 PM
REASONS TO PAY OFF YOUR MORTGAGE EARLY
The average homeowner spends tens of thousands of dollars in interest over the life of a mortgage. Paying off the loan early can dramatically reduce the total amount you will spend on interest. Many people find it difficult to adjust to living on a fixed income after they retire and realize that they underestimated their costs or didn’t save enough. Not having to worry about monthly home loan payments when you’re no longer working can give you peace of mind.
WHEN TO FOCUS ON RETIREMENT FIRST
If you started saving for retirement late, or haven’t saved as much as you would like, you may be better off putting more money in your retirement account than paying off your mortgage faster. A retirement account will benefit from compound interest. While it’s true that paying off your mortgage early can save you thousands of dollars in interest, the amount you can gain by investing in a retirement account may be greater. Compare the average rate of return on your retirement investments to the interest rate on your mortgage. If the percentage you can earn by investing in an IRA or a 401(k) is larger than the percentage you can save on mortgage interest, focusing on retirement first may pay off more in the long run. If your mortgage has a prepayment penalty, paying it off early can cost you money. The amount of a penalty may significantly reduce any benefit you could get by making extra loan payments. If you don’t spend enough on mortgage interest to itemize your tax deductions, you may be better off putting money into your retirement account. Some types of retirement accounts will allow you to defer paying taxes on money you contribute, which can help you financially right now.
WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?
There is not one answer that applies to everyone in every situation. Carefully consider your mortgage balance and interest rate, how much you already have saved for retirement, your return on investment and when you plan to stop working. A financial advisor can help you choose the best option for your circumstances. Reprinted with permission from RISMedia. ©2021. All rights reserved. Reprinted with permission from RISMedia. ©2021.

ADD COLOR
TO YOUR BACKYARD WITH THESE DESIGN IDEAS
Even with the beauty that Mother Nature offers, you can heighten the look of your backyard with pops of color and interesting decor. With spring and summer right around the corner, many people are creating the ultimate outdoor entertainment space. Here are some design tips to add color to your backyard. HANG A HAMMOCK
INSTALL A BIRDBATH
If you’re looking to create a spot for ultimate relaxation, consider adding a hammock to a shaded corner of your yard. Have fun with colors by mixing and matching the hammock materials with the surrounding plants, creating an oasis that promotes wellness and health.
A birdbath offers a unique and natural way to bring more color into your yard. Of course, the birdbath can be painted any color you’d like, but the best part of this feature is how it attracts all different species of birds. From bluebirds to cardinals, robins to chickadees, a place for them to take a bath will cause your backyard to be full of color and life in no time.
DISPLAY PLANTS IN COLORFUL POTS Of course, plants and flowers can add an array of colors to your yard, but what you put them in can create a unique look to fit a theme or color scheme. Shop for pots with interesting patterns and designs that will tie together your space. Even look for light, bright hanging pots to add dimension and create a focal point.
Creative Living 76 Digestsize.indd 5
HAVE FUN WITH THROW PILLOWS If you have created an area on your back deck or in your yard dedicated to relaxing and hanging out with family and friends, you likely have a couch or a few chairs. Incorporating throw pillows is a great way to show off your style and add a pop of color. Choose a pattern, color scheme or even different shaped throw pillows to create a comfortable and cozy sitting area.

SHOULD YOU REPLACE YOUR FRONT DOOR?
Y
our home’s front door is one of the first things that guests notice when they come to visit. It is also responsible for keeping your family safe, keeping drafts out and blocking out noise from traffic and other external sources. If your front door is damaged or worn out and failing in one or more of these areas, it may be time to replace it. Which Type of Door Should You Choose? A steel door is the best choice in terms of security. Steel doors are also energy efficient, durable and affordable. They don’t warp, but they can become dented, scratched and rusted. Steel doors are available in numerous styles and can be painted. If you would prefer a wood door, you can choose from several species and paint or varnish the door in the color of your choice. Wood doors can withstand damage from normal use and scratches can be fixed fairly easily. The downside is that a wood door can become weathered from exposure to rain and sunlight, and must be painted and varnished regularly to keep it from warping and swelling. Since a wood door can be damaged by weather, it’s best to choose one only if the entryway is covered or if you plan to use a storm door. Fiberglass doors are made with composite materials. They can be manufactured to closely resemble wood, but they don’t have the drawbacks of real wood.
A fiberglass door won’t swell, shrink, rot or warp. Fiberglass doors are better at resisting insects and fire than wood doors, plus, fiberglass is easier to maintain. Fiberglass doors are also more secure and energy efficient than wood doors, but they tend to be more expensive. Steel and fiberglass doors have a thermal break or an insulated separation that keeps outside temperatures from affecting the inside of the house. They can also keep heated air inside during the winter and cooled air inside during the summer. By preventing air transfer, a new front door can make your home more energy efficient and can significantly lower your utility bills. If you live on a busy street, you may be annoyed by the sounds of cars driving by, people talking and dogs barking outside your house. Some doors are constructed to block out noise from traffic and other outdoor sources. Choose the Right Front Door for Your Home Installing a new front door can quickly and easily make your home more secure and energy efficient, upgrade its style and increase its value. If you decide to replace your front door, do it before the winter months. You don’t want to let cold air into your house while workers are removing the old door and installing the new one. Review your options and shop around for a door that suits your home and your budget.
