How to find, and pick out, wallpaper for your home

T

By Jennifer Barger

Special to The Washington Post

wenty years ago, wallpaper was the kiss of design death, a murderously hardto-remove blight from the 1980s (or earlier) that smacked of fussy grandmas and Victorian haunted houses.

Wallpaper has grown in popularity — and it’s now easier to both put up and take down.

books.

“But now you can also see hundreds of patterns on the Internet versus flipping through endless books,” said D.C. wallpaper installer Michael DiGuiseppe. Sites with oodles of options (Tiger prints! Scottish tartans! A trellis formed of frogs!) include Anthropologie, DecoratorsBest, the Pattern Collective, Wallpaper Direct and WallPapers & Fabrics To Go. All have search engines that let you filter by price, color and other

categories.

Order samples of a few patterns before committing.

Then, as you would with paint, tack options on the wall you’re thinking of bedazzling to see how they look at different times of day and whether they clash with existing furniture or fixtures.

Choosing a color, scale or pattern is highly subjective, but DiGuiseppe advised that “papers with larger repeats are best for big spaces. Also be mindful of any irregularities

in your space: crooked corners or uneven ceiling lines. A stripe or plaid would not be the best choice in that case, as it would highlight those flaws.”

But wallpaper isn’t just for walls. “You can wallpaper the ceiling, line the back of bookshelves or cover a piece of furniture,” Ellis said.

For bathrooms, kitchens or other spaces subject to moisture or heavy use, look for scrubbable or contract-grade papers. This means they are

But like so many bygone home decor trends – macramé hangings, “Mad Men”-era furniture – wallpaper has rolled back in to style. The good news? It’s now easier to put up and take down, made with super-durable materials, and sometimes comes in peeland-stick varieties you can slap up yourself.

“Many homeowners immediately think of the messy wallpaper installation and time-consuming removal process of our parents’ day,” said Brittany Ellis, owner of online wallpaper store the Pattern Collective.

“This is not the case anymore. With proper wall preparation, such as using a primer specifically for wallpaper, steamers and messy chemical strippers are things of the past. With many of the wallpapers today, removal can be easier than installation.”

Much like adding a new coat of paint, decking your walls with a punchy floral or a groovy mural can completely transform a room.

Do one accent wall, several bedrooms, or just tart up your dining space with a Chinese toile, Warhol-esque flowers or indoor clouds.

To get started – and get inspired – visit a local paint and wallpaper shop or big-box home improvement outlet and look through sample

Creating good energy at home The Washington Post

Creating good energy in your home is the goal of the ancient practice of feng shui.

Atlanta author Ashley Cantley has created a modern practice of feng shui that pulls from traditional Chinese medicine, shamanism, Ayurveda and current studies of energetics.

Cantley teaches a customizable approach to help people bring balance to major life areas, including wealth and wellness. In “High-Vibe Feng Shui: 11 Steps to Achieving Your Best Life,” she discusses cleaning and decluttering and fixing energy blocks.

Cantley joined a recent Washington Post Home Front online chat. Here is an edited excerpt.

Q. All this time spent

working from home has been draining. What are a few easy ways to bring positive energy and motivation to a home office space?

A.

Add bright colors in the red family, move your pet into the office if possible, open the windows, position yourself so you’re looking out the window, diffuse an uplifting scent like peppermint, add a plant and

put inspiring words or images on the walls.

Prices for a double U.S. roll can run anywhere from $25 to over $400 each, though $50 to $150 a roll is about average. That double roll will cover approximately 60 square feet, meaning you will spend hundreds of dollars just for the five or six rolls needed to redo even a smallish room.

To save money, you can look for discontinued or vintage paper. But know that older wallpapers can be brittle and split as you work with them.

You can also opt to wallpaper just the top half of the walls, adding a chair rail (if you don’t already have one) to separate the bare wall below from the paper, a classic look in a dining room.

ERFECT FOR READing, napping or spending time with someone close, there’s nothing like a lawn swing when it comes to relaxing outdoors.

The only drawback is that a free-standing lawn swing is a pretty ambitious do-it-yourself project—at least it was until now. Believe it or not, even an amateur with a few basic tools can create this comfortable, sturdy, attractive and affordable lawn swing in a weekend.

Made entirely from about

100 feet of inexpensive, heavy-duty, schedule 40 PVC pipe—plus some canvas, PVC pipe joints, glue, chain and a little bit of common hardware—you won’t believe how quickly and easily the project comes together. In fact, it’s so simple you just might make two.

To build, cut the pipe to length and assemble the base, seat and cover separately.

Next, attach the seat fabric and hang the seat. To finish, cut

F THERE IS ONE GROUP of plants that cries out for regular and careful pruning, it is fruit trees.

Taste the sweetness of a perfectly ripe pear: that sweetness represents energy, the result of pruning so all limbs bask in sunshine. Pruning also helps these trees strike a balance between shoot growth and fruit production, so important in making sure that they bear large, luscious fruits year after year.

The first years are important to a fruit tree’s future performance. These are the years to help your tree lay down a permanent framework of branches that can support loads of fruit and not shade each other.

Centuries of fruit growing have spawned many different tree forms, but three predominate: the central-leader, the open-center, and the modi-

After seven consecutive increases, fixed mortgage rates reversed course this week.

According to the latest data released Thursday by Freddie Mac, the 30-year fixed-rate average slipped to 3.13% with an average 0.7 point. (Points are fees paid to a lender equal to 1% of the loan amount and are in addition to the interest rate.)

It was 3.18% a week ago and 3.33% a year ago.

Freddie Mac, the federally chartered mortgage investor, aggregates rates from about 80 lenders across the country to come up with weekly national average mortgage rates. It uses rates for high-quality borrowers with strong credit scores and large down payments. Because of the criteria, these rates are not available to every borrower.

The survey is based on home-purchase mortgages, which means rates for refinances may be higher. The price adjustment for refinance transactions that went into effect in December is adding to the cost.

The adjustment, which applies to all Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac refinances, is 0.5% of the loan amount. That works out to $1,500 on a $300,000 loan.

The 15-year fixed-rate average slid to 2.42% with an average 0.6 point. It was 2.45% a

week ago and 2.77% a year ago.

The five-year adjustable rate average rose to 2.92% with an average 0.1 point. It was 2.84% a week ago and 3.4% a year ago.

“Mortgage rates fell this week, holding firm even as key economic data reports show signs of continued improvement,” said Matthew Speakman, a Zillow economist. “Rates have paused their consistent ascent several times in the past few months, but for the first time since the beginning of the year, there are some indications that this reprieve from rates’ upward trend could be a lasting one. . . . With coronavirus cases beginning to rise again in most U.S. states and many countries around the world, investors have a renewed reason for caution, which tends to push bond yields, and mortgage rates, downward.”

Meanwhile, mortgage applications were down for the fifth week in a row. According to the latest data from the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), the market composite index - a measure of total loan application volume - decreased 5.1% from a week earlier. The purchase index fell 4% from the previous week, and the refinance index dropped 5%. The refinance share of mortgage activity accounted for 60.3% of applications.

Earliest eyeglasses date back to 1300s

T

HE EARLIEST USE OF eyeglasses was recorded about 1300. Rock crystal was shaped and set in round frames to wear and improve clarity. Glasses with temple arms that sit on the ears were not created until the 1700s. Glasses with dark lenses were worn for medical reasons by the late 19th century. Sunglasses that just cut glare were not used until 1929.

President Theodore Roosevelt wore a monocle, probably the first president to admit he had trouble seeing. In 1784, Benjamin Franklin had special spectacles that had bifocal lenses. Benjamin Martin (17041782) invented Martin’s Margins eyeglasses in the 18th century period. They were round, had thinner and more accurate lenses set in two round frames of iron or steel, trimmed with cattle horn or tortoiseshell and arms that wrap around the ears.

Next came “scissors spectacles” that could be folded to fit in a pocket. The side pieces looked like those on a pair of scissors. They were first used in the early 1800s. Once glasses could be made by machine, they became less expensive, less of an ornament, and more an item used by working men and women.

The glasses here are Windsors, a style started in Victorian times. This pair has leather side flaps, a leather nosepiece, and a thin metal frame with round lenses and arms that wrap around the ears. There are many collectors of medical devices today, even auctions that feature only medicines, original containers and small medical tools. Prices are still low.

CURRENT PRICES

Current prices are recorded from antiques shows, flea markets, sales and auctions throughout the United States. Prices vary in different locations because of local economic conditions.

This is a very early pair of glasses with tinted lenses not used as sunglasses. (COWLES SYNDICATE INC.)

that says “New York.” What can you tell me about them?

A.

Five of your spoons represent countries involved in World War I, but they were not all Allies. Great Britain, France and Russia were allied beginning in 1914. Italy, Japan and Portugal joined the alliance in 1915. The United States became an Associated Power in 1917.

Belgium was among the 27 countries listed as Allied and Associated Powers when the Treaty of Versailles was signed in 1919, ending the war. However, Austria-Hungary was not an ally; it was an enemy, one of the Central Powers, which included Germany, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire. There were many souvenir spoons made commemorating World War I armies. This is not a complete set. The “New York” spoon is just a souvenir of the city.

Simple sterling silver souvenir spoons sell for $20 to $30; plated spoons sell for $5 to $10.

about 1914, when World War I broke out. After Gerbing died, Schiller moved to Bodenbach and opened his own factory, where his son joined him in the business. They became the largest manufacturer of majolica in Bohemia. The pieces had elaborate raised decoration and they sell for about $150.

Q. I once owned a glass

Alaska green celery dish by Northwood. I want to find a replacement and have no idea how. What can you tell me?

A.

Northwood glass was made by the H. Northwood Co., founded in Wheeling, West Virginia, in 1901 by Harry Northwood. He and his brother, Carl, manufactured pressed and blown glass tableware and novelties. Harry Northwood died in 1919, and the company closed in 1925. The Alaska pattern was made between about 1897 and 1903. It was made in several colors, including blue I’d like information opalescent, emerald opalesabout a Wilhelm Schiller & cent, green, and vaseline, a Sons pottery vase I recently greenish-yellow glass.

much pruning is needed to achieve this balance depends on how — or, really, where — a particular tree bears its flowers and how big its fruits are. Especially with large fruits, such as apple and peach, individual fruits tend to be undersized and less sweet with too heavy a crop.

Prune a bearing fruit tree each year by shortening some stems and removing others completely. Shorten stems where you want regrowth and increased branching. Completely remove stems where you do not want such regrowth, such as where stems are overcrowded. Complete removal is also the way to deal with those vigorous, upright — but not fruitful — watersprouts.

The kind of tree that you are pruning dictates the overall amount of pruning needed. (All this, and more, is detailed in my book, “The Pruning Book,” available in bookstores or online). The younger the stems on which fruits are borne, the more stems need to be shortened.

At one extreme are peach and nectarine. They bear fruit only on stems that grew the previous season, so need fairly severe annual pruning to stimulate an annual flush of vigorous, new shoots for the following year’s crop.

Prune enough so that a bird could fly right through the branches. Apple and pear trees, at the other extreme, bear fruit on long-lived, very short, knobby branches, called spurs, so need little such annual stimulus. Eventually, though, even spurs need pruning for rejuvenation and elbow room. Most other fruit trees lie between the extremes of apples and peaches in bearing habit and severity of annual pruning needed.

that could come only from Britain, where gardening is part of the national identity, and where a garden show needs neither explaining nor hyping.

It airs during prime time as a place for the practical gardener to get advice and inspiration and the armchair gardener to be entertained.

An early host was the avuncular Percy Thrower, who showed up in a starched shirt and tie, and dispensed guidance while puffing on a pipe. He was known as the

nation’s “head gardener” but was booted off the show in the 1970s for appearing in commercials.

The Cambridge-educated Don, who once designed jewelry for the London jet set, is more difficult to pigeonhole.

Articulate and smooth, he delivers his advice with the gusto of a Shakespearean actor. The ladies love him, perhaps because he is that rarest of male creatures, suave and handy at the same time.

for an ambitious garden, then set about creating it with very few resources and a lot of hard work. No doubt, much of the garden now is maintained by behind-the-scenes labor, but when Don and his family came to Longmeadow in 1991 to establish their rural sanctuary, he had his work cut out.

“The house was beautiful but uninhabitable,” he wrote.

He worked on it for a year.

The land “had been uncultivated for a number of years and was a jungle.”

This ethos of maintenance and improvement persists in the show, where he is doing the work himself (at least on camera), and is showing us how to make an impressive garden on the cheap. He is forever starting things from seed, or taking cuttings, or dividing perennials.

Its success comes down not only to the craft of gardening but also to the less obvious craft of making a television show. During the pandemic, the show has invited viewers to send in their homemade films, and what these segments lack in polish, they make up for in the authentic value of gardening during the coronavirus crisis.
