A stack of clean, fluffy tow els can be a beautiful thing in any bathroom, as shown in this bathroom organized by Neat Method.

A disorganized bathroom makes for a disorganized start to the day, according to experts who offer tips to prevent bathroom clutter.

“When we’re organizing, people are really surprised by the number of samples and travel-size things they accu mulate,” she said, in addition to expired bottles of lotion, sunscreen and medication. Keep only the few products you actually use, she advised, and dispose of everything else.Once the purge is complete, look at how much storage space you have and consider whether the remaining items will fit in a reasonably unclut tered way.

“You’re capturing little nooks to create additional storage,” said Monica Fried, an interior designer in New York. Many medicine cabinets are designed to be recessed into the wall above a van ity, but that is not the only option. Fried sometimes recesses shallow cabinets into other bathroom walls, with mirrored or painted doors.

“Sometimes it’s a flat panel, so it just looks like part of the wall,” she said, but opens like a tiny closet to reveal toiletries.JessicaDavis, founder of Atelier Davis, a design studio with offices in Atlanta and South Orange, New Jersey, has added armoire-size builtins to some bathrooms and semi-recessed cabinets just a few inches deep to others. “Shampoo and hair prod ucts don’t require a ton of space,” she said. “It’s not like storing books on a shelf, where you need 12 inches of depth.” In the bathroom, 3 or 4 inches will usually suffice. If you would rather avoid cutting holes and mounting cabinets to the wall, an easier option is to add a freestanding piece of furniture. In larger bathrooms, some designers install chests that look as if they were pulled out of a bedroom.Insmaller bathrooms, you could buy a multitier roll ing cart that can be tucked under a washstand or in an unused corner, said Wendy Silberstein, founder of the Aesthetic Organizer in New York, who likes models from the Container Store. A rolling cart is “freestanding, and you can put a set of towels on the bottom and everyday items on top,” she said. For a truly tiny bathroom with no available wall or floor space, Silberstein recom mended an Elfa over-the-door

Take stock of existing storage space If your vanity drawers and medicine cabinet aren’t neatly organized — and you simply dump in whatever you buy from the drugstore — you may be surprised at how much space you already have. The best way to begin a bathroom cleanup, Hagmeyer said, is to take everything out and get rid of anything you know you’ll never use.

STOCKBRIDGE Upcoming events Berkshire Botanical Garden presents these upcoming programs:

HE GOOD OL’ DAYS seemed to have had snowier winters, greener grass, and more toothsome apples. Per haps it was so. One thing those good ol’ days definitely did not have was sweeter sweet corn. Only recently have plant breeders found new genes that shoot the sugar content of sweet corn sky-high. Papoon corn, the first recorded variety of sweet corn, probably originated as a chance mutation of a single gene of field corn. That gene, the so-called sugary gene (abbreviated su), brought the sugar level in corn from 4% up toWe10%.gardeners have tried to make the most of that 10% ever since the time when those 18th century Plymouth garden ers grew Papoon corn. We pick an ear just when each kernel is creamy and as sweet as can be. Since sugars in corn start changing to starch as soon as the ear is picked, we eat the corn right out in the garden or else rush it to the kitchen to a pot of already boiling water. In only one day, half that sugar will turn to starch. Sweetness in sweet corn took a quantum leap a few decades ago as a result of two genes. The first gene, called the shrunken-2 gene (abbreviated sh2) because of the way the dried kernels shrivel up, pushes the sugar level in corn up to a whop ping 37%. Not only that, but even two days after picking, that corn still has 29% sugar. The variety Illini Xtra Sweet was the first of the appropri ately named “supersweet” or “extrasweet” sweet corns. Other varieties with this gene are Early Xtra Sweet, Starstruck, and How Sweet It TheIs. second gene respon sible for sweeter sweet corn is the sugar enhanced gene (abbreviated se). The se gene is effective only in combination with the su gene of regular sweet corn varieties, and the combination of the two genes results in varying degrees of sweetness. Still no need to scurry to the kitchen with se varieties, because they also retain their sweetness for a long time. Kandy Korn EH, Pearls ‘n Gold EH, Silverado, and Snow Queen EH are vari eties with the se gene. Many of these varieties have that “EH,” which stands for “everlasting heritage,” in their names. Most farmers and gardeners plant these new sweet corns, but not everyone. Why not? First of all, these new varieties need special care. Their seeds are finicky, and will rot just as soon as they grow if planted in soils that are too cool, too dry, or too wet. Seems like soil microorganisms also like that extra sweetness. Even after the seeds have been coaxed to ger minate, the resulting seedlings can lack vigor. The sweeter sweet corns can lose almost all their sweetness if the wrong pollen blows onto their silks. If an sh2 variety is cross-pollinated with a stan dard sweet corn, ears on both will taste dry and starchy, like those of field corn. Cross-pol lination of varieties with the se gene with other types of sweet corn results in standard sweet corn. The only way to mini mize such contamination is to separate varieties by at least 250 feet, or else plant varieties whose maturities differ by more than two weeks. And what about flavor: Is sweetness all we want from sweet corn? The sweeter sweet corn varieties tend to taste watery and lack a rich, ”corny” flavor. If breeders could devel op a sweet corn with 95% sug ar, would that be even better? Corn with 37% sugar tastes too sweet to many gardeners. A chocolate bar isn’t much sweeter, with about 50% sug ar! I find that regular corn vari eties — including old varieties like Golden Bantam, Seneca Chief, Stowell’s Evergreen, Country Gentleman, and Silver Queen — are as delicious as corn needs to be if they are picked at just the right stage, then eaten within minutes. Ten percent sugar is enough for me. Any gardening questions? Email me at garden@leereich. com. Come visit my garden at leereich.com/blog.

“You want to categorize ev erything — but think in broad categories,” Hagmeyer said. “Face, everyday things, lotion, hair, teeth, travel, vitamins, medicine. The broader you go, the more likely you’re actually going to be able to keep up with it.”Then use drawer dividers or small bins to keep each cate gory separate. Silberstein likes using clear plastic bins, which makes it easy to see things stored in drawers and medi cine cabinets. And she often removes products like cotton swabs, floss, bandages and ra zor blades from the packaging and stuffs them into bins, to minimize the amount of space they take up.

Develop plan for linens To keep your bathroom looking serene, figure out where you’ll put your towels and washcloths. A stack of clean, fluffy towels can be a beautiful thing, so when they’re freshly laundered, fold them nicely and pile them up in a closet or on a shelf. “They all need to get lined up, whether you sort them by color, by size or by trim,” Sallick said.

A tray and attractive containers can tidy up products that might otherwise look like clutter on the bathroom sink.

A well-organized drawer is pictured in a bathroom. The pro fessional organizers at Neat Method use small bins to group similar items in drawers.

There are a couple of func tional advantages to using a tray: “One, it makes it easier to clean, because you can pick the whole thing up,” Davis said. “But also from a reasonattractivegivingofonlylot,”createsioushodgepodgethemselves:icthemondon’tservestooltheagethusbandstandpoint,water-spreadingwhenmykidsandwashtheirhandsandwateralloverthecounter,traykeepsitfromgettingintoproducts.”Nexttothebathtub,acaddy,orsmallsidetablecanasimilarpurpose,soyouhavetobalancebottlestheedgeofthetuborputonthefloor.Forastepclosertoaesthetbliss,considerthebottlesLeavingoutaofbottlesinvarshapes,sizesandcolorsvisualclutter.“ThecontainersmatteraSallicksaid.Trytokeepanessentialselectionbottlesout,andconsiderprioritytoproductsinpackaging.(There’saAesopbottlesappearinsomanyprofessionallyphotographedbathrooms.)OrdowhatSallickdid.“Yearsago,Ifoundreallynice,clear,rectangularcontainersatMujiandboughtaboatloadofthem,”shesaid.Nowshepoursallofhersoapsandshampoosintothem.Ifyoupreferadifferentstyleofcontainer,awiderangeofattractive,refillablebottlescanbefoundonEtsy.

“It’s a money saver, because you can see everything that you own,” she said. “Not only is it easier to use, but you don’t keep restocking when you don’t need to,” she added, just because the box of cotton swabs has disap peared under the washcloths.

“Your bathroom should be a haven. You deserve to have an uncluttered bathroom to be productive, to get yourself ready for the day and to look in the mirror and feel good.”

By making sure there’s a dedicated place for everything, your bathroom won’t just look better — it will also feel better to“Youruse. bathroom should be a haven,” Silberstein said. “You deserve to have an uncluttered bathroom to be productive, to get yourself ready for the day and to look in the mirror and feel good.” This article originally ap peared in The New York Times.

Display daily items

It’s impractical to store every last bottle in a drawer all of the time. Products you use every day — hand soap, shampoo, conditioner — should stay where you need them: by the sink, shower or bathtub. If you plan to keep soap, a cup, a few cosmetics and perhaps a bottle of perfume on the vanity top, an easy way to make them look organized is to put them on an attractive tray. “That way, it’s all corralled into a single, beautiful small tray,” said Barbara Sallick, co-founder and senior vice president of design at Waterworks, whose latest book, “The Ultimate Bath,” will be published in September. Some trays are sold specif ically for bathroom use, but Sallick likes hunting for vin tage trays and containers that would work in any room.

Once those linens are in use, you’ll need enough hanging space for every wet towel and washcloth — which isn’t always the case in busy households — to avoid having them left on a doorknob or tossed on the floor.“It’s essential to buy hooks and towel bars, sometimes in multiple sizes, so you have a place for everything, and everybody’s towel lives in a certain place,” Sallick said. If you think you don’t have enough wall space, there are many options that can help. Wall-mounted towel racks can hold multiple towels. Free standing racks can be placed on the floor. You may be able to mount short towel bars on the sides of your vanity. You could add hooks on short walls, or on the back of a door. And if all else fails, you can drag in a stool or side “Sometimes,table.when it’s a more modern aesthetic and there aren’t so many places for towel bars, we incorporate a stool with folded towels on top,” Fried said. “It’s a furni ture piece that expands where people can keep a towel handy, or drop one.”

‘D OCTOR YOUR self,” encourages this cabinet, made to hold the Mun yon Remedies in a drug store. The cabinet lists the “reme dies” it contains according to the ailments they claim to “Relieve Immediately.” You won’t find any ingredients lists, warnings or drug facts here. These are Munyon’s Homeopathic Remedies from the early 20th century. James M. Munyon was a businessman with a talent for marketing and a staff of chemists and physicians. He started selling homeopathic medicines in the 1890s. After some legal trouble following the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act, he had to sell his products as “remedies” instead of “cures.” This isn’t the only controversy associ ated with Munyon. Hawley Harvey Crippen, a homeopath at Munyon’s London office, was convicted of murder and hanged in 1910. This history hasn’t made Munyon’s advertising any less appealing to collectors; this cabinet sold for $1,850 at Morford’s Antique Advertising auction.Antique apothecary and drug store memorabilia are popular collectibles, but be careful! Antique medicine bottles and other packaging may contain harmful substances. Keep them away from children and pets. Handle them carefully; wear rubber gloves and clean the cabinets in a well-ventilat ed area.

A. The mark you describe was used by the Ceramic Art Company of Trenton, New Jersey, from 1894 to 1906. The intersecting script letters are “CAC” for Ceramic Art Com pany. Creamy white pottery has been made in Belleek, Ireland, since 1863. American pottery companies made china like Irish Belleek but warmer in color. After 1929, Belleek Pottery Limited was the only porcelain company that could use Belleek with a capital “B” on its marks. The Ceramic Art Company was founded by Walter Scott Lenox. After 1906, the Lenox name was added to the Ceramic Art Company mark. Vases similar to yours have recently sold for $750.

Freddie Mac, the federally chartered mortgage investor, aggregates rates from around 80 lenders across the country to come up with weekly national averages. The survey is based on home purchase mortgages. Rates for refinances may be different. The 15-year fixed-rate average jumped to 4.85% with an average 0.8 points. It was 4.55% the previous week and 2.17% a year ago. The fiveyear adjustable-rate average rose to 4.36% with an average 0.4 points. It was 4.39% the previous week and 2.42% a year ago. As lackluster refinancing and purchasing activity continues as a drag on mortgage demand, the market composite index - a measure of total loan applica tion volume – decreased 1.2% from a week earlier, according to Mortgage Bankers Asso ciation data. The refinance index fell 3% and was 83% lower than a year earlier. The purchase index slipped 1%. The refinance share of mortgage activity accounted for 31.1% of applications.

• Take a balanced ap proach. If you’re consider ing incorporating a vibrant upholstered piece into your space, remember that balancing bolder colors with more subdued shades is key, Gannon says. “Think about a movie: There are a few stars of the show and supporting cast members. All are important to make the room successful,” she says. Gannon suggests going for a forest green sofa, for exam ple, and tying in softer hues, as well as a few patterned pillows, to keep it from being overwhelming.

“With this information, I will stretch [clients’] comfort zones by suggesting colors just outside of the familiar area,” she says. She high lights undertones within the colors, “so (clients) are able to digest and support moving in this direction.” Not working with a pro? Sim ply head to your local paint store, where you can check out an array of colors. “Say you are done with gray and ready for a change,” Watts says. “Gray typically has a cool undertone, so start look ing at blues that have a little bit of green in them. You can always go lighter or darker on the spectrum, depending on how dramatic you want your room.”

Gannon and other designers say there are plenty of ways to become more receptive to using bold colors — without going overboard. Whether you’re working with a pro or revamping your space on your own, here are some tips to keep top of mind before committing to that fuchsia powder room.

Warm up to a more colorful home

• Be thoughtful with paint. If you do wish to coat the walls with color, consider first taking a more subtle approach. “Introducing vibrant paint colors can be done on a smaller scale, with half-painted walls and painting doors a bright hue,” says Molly Torres Portnof of Brooklyn-based Date Interiors.Inaddition, designers frequently recommend going bold in smaller or less frequently used spaces. The powder room is an excellent place to introduce vibrant colors to the home, says Sydney Markus, a designer at Anthony Wilder Design/ Build in Cabin John, Md. “Because a powder room is a small space, it’s easier to take risks and add color and pattern for a dramatic impact,” she says. “Also consider wallpaper, which is affordable in such a small space.”Additionally, although Markus enjoys designing neutral, serene primary bedrooms, she will take more risk with color in guest rooms. “You want to incor porate a color that lasts many years, one that has longevity, unlike a guest room, where you can take more color risks and change it up like a hotel room,” she says. And if you change your mind down the line? Don’t fret, because paint is easily remedied. “Go ahead and take the leap,” Watts says. “It is just paint, and you can always have a do-over.”

• Start small. Designers agree that gradually intro ducing small, nonpermanent pieces is a good way to dip your toes into more colorful design. Try incorporating throw pillows, accessories and art with vibrant hues. “Adding in these items helps to get a person used to see ing color,” says Los Angeles designer Linda Hayslett of LH.Designs. “Then, after a while, start adding more into the mix.”

No need to be afraid of color, experts say

• Try a bedding refresh. Kemper particularly en joys introducing color to a space with bedding. “A bed takes up so much surface area in your bedroom and is a perfect canvas to layer in rich colors, textures and patterns,” she says. “A blank white bed often feels like a hole in the middle of a space to me and is a missed oppor tunity.”

Emma Kemper, owner of Emma Beryl Interiors

“If there is a color or color family that you seem to enjoy wearing a lot of, this gives you a good indication of what colors you will enjoy having in your home.”

The Washington Post I f you’re tired of having a home full of andfurnishingsneutralpaint—a la the prevailing design trends of recent years — but feel a bit skittish about completely re versing course, you’re certainly not alone.

If you’re having trouble determining your favorite hues, take a peek inside your closet. “If there is a color or color family that you seem to enjoy wearing a lot of, this gives you a good indication of what colors you will enjoy having in your home,” says designer Emma Kemper, owner of New York-based Emma Beryl Interiors.

• Make a list of your favorite colors. Before taking on a new project, Den ver-based designer Nadia Watts asks her clients what shades resonate with them.

By Sarah Lyon

Tired of beige, off-white and other neutrals all over your home? Experts say there’s no reason to stray away from color. (METRO CREATIVE ARTS)

“Many homeowners tend to stay away from color. Some may even be fearful of it,” says Robin Gannon, whose firm, Robin Gannon Interi ors, is based in Lexington. She attributes this to a few things. “They may not have been exposed to color or pat tern in their formative years, and the homes we were raised in really influence our design aesthetics and prefer ences. Others like color but are scared of what the final space will look like, fearing that they will invest time and money to end up with a room theyTakehate.”heart, though: Even the most color-shy people don’t have to be banished to a home filled with vari ous shades of beige forever.
