o outdoor entertaining space — even one with quality furniture, beautiful landscaping and a barbecue-ready grill — is ready to take a star turn at an evening event until you add lighting. “When you walk into a great restaurant or a summer wedding and you wonder why it feels so magical, lighting is why,” says Hillary Stamm, founder of HMS Interiors in California. You could just throw up some string lights and call it a day, of course. But to get the most of your outdoor space — whether it’s an apartment balcony or a sprawling backyard with a pool and gazebo — experts suggest having multiple sources of light. “You’re not trying to create a really bright space,” Stamm says, “but you do need two to three sources of light, such as outdoor can lights, candles or sconces.” Jason Jorgensen, owner of Third Spring Landscape Design in Seattle, says to think in zones. What are you going to do outside? If it’s reading under a covered deck, you
might opt for an LED table lamp. On the other hand, “if you’re dining outside, cozy low lighting works well,” he says. (Think candles and string lights.) And you’ll want to take advantage of the latest technology. Putting lights on Wi-Fi-compatible timers, for example, will save energy and help you adhere to the Dark Sky initiative guidelines, says Los Angeles-based garden designer Stephanie Bartron. They encourage homeowners
to only use light when needed, on the areas needed, and to make sure it’s no brighter than necessary, so people can help minimize light pollution. Here are some specific fixtures that Stamm, Jorgensen and Bartron recommend. Tabletop lights Stamm likes Threshold’s maize outdoor lantern candle holders ($20-$30, target. com) to add texture to your outdoor space. Pair them with SEE LIGHTS, PAGE F3

Don & Dave Runyan | Project of The Week
A beautiful relationship
A
CLASSIC WOODworking project is almost always the result of a successful marriage — the relationship between practical functionality and a beautiful design. There’s nothing more satisfying than creating something useful that also looks great, and this handsome blanket chest project is a great example of that classic combination. The project provides extra storage — something every home can use — while looking great at the foot of the bed. It also serves as handy spot to tie
your shoes in the morning. Easy and inexpensive to build, the chest is cut almost entirely from a single sheet of oak plywood (as pictured; almost any species can be substituted). Basically a simple box, six rectangular pieces make up the sides, top and bottom. The curves on the base are traced from full-size patterns. The completed blanket chest measures about 47 inches long by 20 inches deep by 20 inches tall. The Blanket Chest plan, No. 724, is $9.95 and includes step-by-step instructions
with photos, full-size traceable patterns, construction diagrams and a complete shopping list and cutting schedule. Please include $3.95 for postage and handling and allow about two weeks for delivery.

HOME DESIGN
Walmart, country star partner for home décor Collaboration inspired by ‘Southern hospitality’ By Hunter Boyce
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Walmart and three-time Grammy winner Miranda Lambert are teaming up for a new home décor product line, Wanda June Home by Miranda Lambert. According to the superstore, the home décor collaboration is inspired by warm and sassy Southern hospitality — featuring items to help craft a comfortable and casual living space. According to the country music icon, it’s a designer line three generations in the making. “Wanda June Home is named after the two most influential women in my life, my mom Beverly June Lambert and my grandma Wanda Louise Coker, AKA Nonny,” Lambert told Walmart. “They both taught me everything I know about being a woman and how to make a warm home full of laughter, love and memories. That’s really the heart of my
Wanda June Home brand. The products are a physical representation of a long line of beautiful memories with amazing women. I am thrilled to launch Wanda June Home with Walmart, where my grandpa was a greeter back in the day and where I’ve shopped all my life.” The décor line went live last week with more than 80 kitchen, bar, tabletop and home décor items. Pricing starts at $12.97 and reaches as high as $170, with most of the pieces being priced around

M I CARRYING edible landscaping too far? First it was moving pepper plants out of the vegetable garden and into the flower garden. Then it was replacing the traditional privet with a hedge of espalier-trained apple trees. And now — well, I am eating flowers, flowers whose traditional place has always been in the flower garden. Obviously not all flowers are edible; some are not palatable, and others are poisonous. The latter includes such familiar garden denizens as delphinium, monkshood, lily-of-the-valley, and others. So don’t eat a flower unless you know it is edible. Also do not eat any flower that you know or suspect has been sprayed with a pesticide. Beyond this caution there are many other flowers that are tasty and wholesome. And they can be consumed in Although disdained by many people, dandelion is one of various ways.

Happy July 4th Ger with his two eldest daughters, Maeve and Molly.
OPEN LETTER TO AMERICA Aboard an Aer Lingus flight to JFK in 1981, with a dream and $80 in my pocket did I think I would be taking out full page ads expressing my gratitude to a country that took me in and offered me an opportunity to raise a family and build a company? Nope. I just wanted to make it through immigration and then find a bed for the night at a youth hostel in a Manhattan brownstone (my first new American word). For almost 10 of the last 40 years these open letters to America have been a public expression of my gratitude and a chance to highlight some of the people that make this country so wonderful - inspirational people that embody the fabric of this great nation.
One of the many meetings that Ruth and Harmony House hosted at the Yankee Home Headquarters.
Officer Jim Barrett in his decked out bomb squad truck helping out his clients in the unhoused community.
Ruth Willemain, who recently passed, and Officer Jim Barrett are two of these inspirational individuals who I have been honored TM to call my friends. Ruth stopped by Yankee in 2018 to request assistance to complete her dream of building a home called Harmony House for people without means to live out the last few days of their lives comfortably and with dignity. For years she volunteered in hospice, holding the hands of people as they passed who had no family or friends to be by their side. Harmony House would take shape using Yankee Home’s offices as a base for their building committee and up until recently their board meetings. Watching Ruth and ordinary Americans step up to make this five bedroom home a reality is truly awe-inspiring. Ruth and her volunteers embody all that is good in this country. Ordinary, selfless and unassuming Americans coming together to do good. Ruth will be missed. After serving his country in Iraq, Jim Barrett returned to join the Hartford, CT police force. Featured on CNN and Fox, Officer Jim refurbished an old bomb squad truck that he uses to become a hero to Hartford’s homeless population. Rather than following Ger his two daughters, and Molly.money at a problem, he offers food, clothing, supplies and most importantly the with mistakes of eldest inner city leadersMaeve and throwing advice on how to get out of the situation they find themselves in. I have witnessed firsthand the respect that the homeless community has for Jim and his tough love that has resulted in numerous success stories. He doesn’t want to perpet-uate the problem; he wants to solve it. His 19 years on the force, building trust in a distrustful world, and his daily dedication to his clients are remarkable. Google him and you will see the lives he has saved. I write this as Father’s Day approaches and would be remiss if I didn’t mention how proud I am of my eldest daughter who serves on the board of Harmony House and helps run Yankee Home’s construction department, along with her sister Maeve who just published her third motivational book for teenagers entitled It’s the Confidence for Me. Couldn’t THANK YOU AMERICA SPECIAL be prouder. This immigrant’s view of America remains unchanged.

Vibrant colors catch eye of collectors
OLLECTORS OF ANtique advertising look for vivid colors and eye-catching graphics. And who would have brighter colors than a dye company? Today, few people buy fabric dyes outside of craft projects, but most families wore homemade clothes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Clothing was made to last, and items were often repaired or remade multiple times before they were retired. People would buy dyes for home use to make their clothing or give a new look to old clothes. Diamond Dyes, a leading dye company around 1900, is known for its advertising. Its trade cards, advertising booklets and store cabinets are especially popular with collectors today. This cabinet with a colorful tin lithographed scene of children playing outdoors sold for $750 by Morford’s Antique Advertising. Watch out for reproductions!
Doulton began making Toby jugs in 1939. Character jugs are shaped with only the head and shoulders of the character. They are popular collectibles, but, with a few exceptions, not rare or expensive. Each sells for $50 or less.
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.

when McCormick Harvesting Machine Co. merged with Deering Harvester Co. and three smaller companies. The company made agricultural equipment and commercial trucks.

The company ran into financial difficulties later and sold its agricultural division and the name “International Harvester” to Tenneco, owner of J.I. Case, in 1984. The brand name became Case IH. International Harvester’s truck division became part of Navistar International Corp. in 1986.

30-year US mortgage rate inches up to 5.81% By Matt Ott
Associated Press
Average long-term U.S. mortgage rates inched up this week following the previous week’s mammoth jump, the biggest in 35 years. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported Thursday that the 30-year rate ticked up to 5.81% this week, from the previous week’s 5.78%. Last week’s average — which jumped more than a halfpoint from the previous week — was the highest since November 2008 during the housing crisis. One year ago, the average 30-year rate was 3.02%. The average rate on 15-year, fixed-rate mortgages, popular among those refinancing their homes, rose to 4.92% from 4.81% the previous week. A year ago, the rate was 2.34%. Last week, the Federal Reserve raised its benchmark rate by three-quarters of a point, the biggest single hike since 1994. The Fed’s unusually large rate hike came after government data showed U.S. inflation rose in May to a four-decade high of 8.6%. The Fed’s benchmark short-term rate, which affects many consumer and business loans, will now be pegged to a range of 1.5% to 1.75% — and Fed policymakers forecast a doubling of that range by year’s end. Higher borrowing rates appear to be slowing the housing market, an important pillar of the economy. The brisk jump in rates, along with a sharp increase in home prices, has been pushing potential homebuyers out of the market. Mortgage applications are down more than 10% from last year and refinancings are off 77%, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

Keep things beautiful, working around house

ELTED-ON CRAYON stains: With so many restaurants giving kids crayons to keep them occupied while waiting for the meal to arrive, we have had to learn how to remove crayons from clothes that have inadvertently made their way through both the washer and dryer. Melted-on crayon can be removed by first applying WD-40 to the area, working it into the stain with your fingers. Once the WD-40 has begun to break down the petroleum base of the crayon, apply concentrated detergent to remove both the stain and the WD-40. Put back into the washer and launder as usual. It works like a charm. Fabulous fixtures: So you splurged on some really beautiful — dare I say expensive — sink fixtures for your kitchen or bathroom. Here’s a fabulous way to keep them looking beautiful for many years to come: No matter how water-spotted and dull your tub, shower and sink faucets are, car wax will make them look like new — and help them stay that way. Rub a small bit of auto wax into all of that metal and allow it to dry for a few minutes. Now just polish it away with a soft dry cloth. The wax will prevent new water spots and keep those fixtures sparkling.

(Dianthus caryophyllus) with a spicy fragrance, will liven a white wine. Strain the wine before you drink it, though. Many flowers — whole flowers, petals, or unopened buds — are used in condiments to whet the appetite, or sweets to end a meal. I came across a recipe for pickling unopened dandelion flower buds with garlic, dill, vinegar, and brown sugar. The stamens within the flowers of one particular type of crocus, the saffron crocus (Crocus sativus), yield the well-known and expensive spice of that name. Vinegar can be flavored with elderberry flowers by covering the blossoms with plain vinegar, letting the mixture steep for a week, and then straining out the flowers.
Duct tape repair: Got a shower curtain with a ripped ring hole that makes it sag? Don’t throw it out quite yet. Instead, get out the duct tape and cover the entire hole on both sides. Using a hole punch or craft knife, recreate the ring hole. Now it’s stronger than new, but maybe not so attractive. Not to worry. These days, duct tape comes in loads of colors and even patterns. You may even want to reinforce the entire top strip of the vinyl curtain with a bright color or design and redo all of the holes while you’re at it, not just the torn one. Blow-dryer longevity: The intake area of a blow-dryer does more than draw in air to cool the heating element. It also sucks in dust, hair, makeup, hair spray, powder and anything else around it. That’s hard on the motor and can cause it to overheat and burn out. To keep your blow-dryer working for years, make sure to vacuum the holes at the back of the dryer every time you vacuum the floor in that room. Happy mouse: If you use a rollerball computer mouse — one that has a ball that you can see when you turn the mouse upside down — then you need to clean the inner workings at least every month to keep it working
Lavender flowers add a nice flavor to apple jelly if added at the stage when the apples are boiling. Once again, strain out the flowers before packing the jelly into jars. A rose petal flavored jelly can be made by boiling together a couple of quarts of rose petals to every quart of water and sugar each, with a dash of lemon added. Flower petals, especially those of rose or violet, can be candied by boiling them briefly in a sugar syrup, then used to garnish cakes or as after-dinner sweets. Or dip the petals in beaten egg white, then sugar, and let them dry on wax paper. Candied mint flowers make a genuine after-dinner mint. OK, you may be snickering by now and saying to yourself that almost anything nonpoisonous can be made palatable by doctoring it up with alcohol, vinegar, or
smoothly. Otherwise, you’ll be paying for replacements more frequently. Here’s how to clean it: Unplug the mouse and turn it over. You will see the tracking ball as well as a round ring that holds it in place. Remove the ring by pressing down and rotating it counterclockwise until you can lift it off. Flip the mouse over so that the ball drops out. Wash the ball with warm tap water and mild soap, then thoroughly dry it with a lint-free cloth. Before replacing the ball and ring, look for three small rollers (each about 1/16th-inch wide) inside the mouse cavity where the ball sits. They will likely be covered with built-up dirt. Use cotton swabs or a toothpick to scrape off the dirt. Gently knock the still-open cavity down into the palm of your hand to get rid of loose particles. Then replace the ball and ring cover.

sugar. Well, there are some flowers good raw, or cooked into main course dishes. Out in my garden I often pluck a daylily or violet flower to pop right into my mouth. Admittedly they’re no match for a fresh-picked tomato, but they’re good nonetheless. Incidentally, daylily flowers can be eaten before they open, when fully open, or after the petals have wilted. Another flower that tastes good raw is nasturtium. A few such flowers add a peppery taste to a sandwich. Traditional flowers for cooking into omelettes are squash, marigold, or calendula flowers. I wonder if the fact that all are shades of yellow have anything to do with this use? Squash flowers even taste sort of like eggs. Making soup? Blend in some dandelion or daylily flowers. Blooms of elderberry, lilac, daylily, or squash can be fried
in a batter of eggs, milk, butter, and flour. Even sunflower buds can be boiled eaten just as you would artichokes, though it seems a shame to sacrifice such a dramatic flower for one meal. Edible flowers can be used to decorate a food just as flowers are used to beautify the garden. A nasturtium flower floating in a bowl of soup makes a picture and pungency. A few violet or rose petals similarly can beautify and flavor a salad. All this talk of eating flowers is not really that odd. After all, you don’t think anything particularly strange about eating broccoli, cauliflower, or artichoke flowers, do you? Any gardening questions? Email them to me at garden@ leereich.com and I’ll try answering them directly or in this column. Come visit my garden at leereich.com/blog.
