As a professional monogrammer and embroiderer I advise brides to consider the following tips when choosing monogrammed gifts: O Monogram fine linen napkins with either one initial or with a traditional monogram. O Have fun with colors and font options when monogramming towels, bedding, and other linens that can be replaced or only used by the couple. O You don’t have to monogram everything on your registry, monogramming fine china, silver, and glassware is expensive for guests to purchase and for the couple to replace. However, monogramming towels and cotton dinner napkins allow guest to choose an affordable personalized gift and can easily be updated by the couple. O Don’t forget to add napkins to your registry, whether you have them monogrammed or leave them blank, you will regret leaving this item off your registry.

large chain stores, like Pottery Barn or William & Sonoma, when picking out monogram gifts. Unlike major chain stores who charge for monogramming every item, local monogram shops are usually much more affordable. Additionally a local monogram professional allow brides to consider fonts and thread colors not available on large company websites. O Finally, have fun when choosing monogram gifts. Even the most traditional bride can add whimsical, colorful kitchen towels to her registry – especially when a bride is given a “Monogram Bridal Shower.� Emily Haley is owner of the local monogram shop Augustus & Argyle (www. augustusandargyle.com).

Plants like to eat organic, too
BEE From Page 1C
By LEE REICH Associated Press
To get the most out of any organic fertilizer, keep in mind how plants feed and how these fertilizers act in the soil. The bulk of a plant’s feeder roots – whether it’s a midget marigold or a mighty oak – lie just beneath the surface, so generally there is no need to dig fertilizer deep into the soil. Anyway, low oxygen levels there would retard microbial growth, which is necessary to unlock nutrients from most organic fertilizers.
TO DIG OR NOT TO DIG
An exception to that “no dig� rule is when phosphorus levels are low, as indicated by a soil test or stunted plants that are purplish when young or late to ripen. (Cold soil in spring also can cause a phosphorus deficiency, a temporary one that abates as soon as soil warms and roots start reaching out.) Phosphorus moves very slowly in the soil, so the only way to get it quickly into the root zone is to mix it into the top 6 to 12 inches of soil. Once a soil is up to snuff with phosphorus, periodic surface applications can trickle down through the soil fast enough to maintain adequate levels throughout the root zone.
TIME yOUR FEEDING
When should you apply organic fertilizers? Remember that the nutrients in most of them are initially insoluble and in forms that plants cannot use. Account for the time lag between application and nutrient release by

March to their lowest level since July 2012, the Realtors said last week. It was the seventh drop in eight months. The drop, though, was small, and many economists said it showed that existing-home sales had likely bottomed out. At the same time, fewer Americans are applying for mortgages, a sign of weaker demand. The Mortgage Bankers Association’s mortgage applications index fell 3 percent last week from the previous week. And sales of new homes plunged 14.5 percent in March to the slowest pace in eight months, according to a government report last week. A jump in prices contributed to the decline. Higher mortgage rates have also weighed on sales. Rates are about a percentage point higher than they were a year ago.

New paints can last longer Websites and apps help with home upkeep chores State Point Media
Trimming out a house “from the top down” with colorful but lowmaintenance finishes and accessories is a growing trend for busy homeowners looking for easy-care home exteriors. Experts advise starting at the top of your home with gable vents and louvers, and then making your way down with decorative millwork, window and door trim, followed by a balustrade system and porch columns. “Today’s homeowners are selecting materials for the outside of the home that are long-lasting and require minimal upkeep,” says Heather Kovacs, product manager for Fypon. “Urethane and PVC accessories perfectly match the needs of homeowners looking for stylish exterior enhancements that resist moisture, insects, cracking, peeling, rotting and warping,” said Kovacs. Depending on the look you’re going for, keep in mind the finish. If you plan to paint the accessories, a smooth finish works best. For staining, opt for timber. A stone cast replicates concrete. With these options, you can personalize your home exterior and complement your home’s design with durable, synthetic materials.
Roofline
At the roofline of the home, consider gable vents and louvers that come in shapes like octagons, cathedral, triangles and ovals. Functional venting
State Point Media

New paint products offer homeowners a longer lasting exterior paint, which cuts down on time and money spent on trim paint upkeep.
louvers should feature corrosion-resistant screens to help keep insects out of the home and angled slates to protect interiors from rain, while still encouraging ventilation for attic spaces.
WindoWS And dooRS
Pilasters, pediments, crossheads and shutters can enhance key elements of a home’s exterior. “The windows on the front of a home gain tremendous curb appeal when accented by trim accessories,” points out Kovacs. “Similarly, you can transform a ho-hum entryway into a stunning grand entrance for a home by installing easy-care door surrounds.”
eAveS
To add the ultimate finishing touch to eaves and window areas on the exterior, Kovacs recommends incorporating
brackets, dentil blocks and corbels. These pieces can be positioned under showcase window areas and on porches, and are also typically found under the roofline of a home. A trellis system installed above a garage door or a secondary entryway of the home can carry through the decorative elements on the exterior.
coloR
With the right color combinations, the trim you add to your home can be striking, drawing together the entire exterior. For this reason, it’s best to consider materials that come with a pre-primed surface ready to stain or paint. For example, Fypon offers paintable detailed mouldings, brackets, trellis systems, louvers and other millwork pieces in a variety of architectural styles that are low-maintenance and weather resistant.
Cut down on window mold Statepoint Media
What’s growing on your windows? If you have wood windows, or even dirty window sills, the answer could be mold. “When materials in the home, such as wood window frames or wood window sills, come in contact with moisture for an extended period of time, mold can grow,” says John Stark, marketing manager for Simonton Windows. “The key is the presence of an organic food source.” And mold growth can be hazardous to your health, causing respira-
tory problems and allergic reactions. So how do you reduce your home’s risk for mold? O You may see your windows “sweat” during the winter or summer months because of varying humidity levels inside. Without proper ventilation, moisture can accumulate on windows and walls from daily household activities such as hot showers. Use ventilation fans and dehumidifiers to help reduce humidity in the home. O Keep window frame surfaces clean. If tiny particles of organic debris are found on the surface of a

window, you could potentially find mold growth. What makes up this debris? It can be anything from fragments of pollen to animal dander.
After a busy work week, it can be hard to get motivated to complete chores and tasks around the house. And knowing what tasks to do and when to do them may not come intuitively for everyone. But neglecting home maintenance is a mistake, say experts. “Regular home maintenance can benefit your family’s health, safety and pocketbook,” says Elizabeth Dodson, Co-Founder of HomeZada, a digital hub to store pertinent information about your home. “Consider creating a home maintenance schedule to State Point Media Photo stay organized and motiMany home imiprovement projects can be done for little vated.” money but add value to your home by avoiding costly With this in mind, here replacement costs or improving efficiency. are several examples of how to maintain your home and why it’s important: battery replacement in your And you don’t have to Avoiding home’s smoke and carbon invest a ton to improve RePlAceMentS monoxide detectors could your home’s value.
