Spring into four simple Do It Yourself home decorating trends
Whether you’re personalizing a new home or revitalizing an old room, the start of spring is when newly imagined spaces become doit-yourself realities. Here are four easy and affordable DIY tips to bring 2014’s trends into your home. Don’t just spring clean ... spring create Spring cleaning doesn’t have to mean getting rid of everything in the garage. Familiar pieces showcased in a special way can be a conversation starter. Love cycling, but have an old bicycle that you don’t ride anymore?Consider using its components to construct a unique piece of furniture to showcase your passion for the sport. Peter Debelak, co-owner of Soulcraft Woodshop and Gallery, a membership-based community woodworking workshop in Cleveland, Ohio, did just that. He used Elmer’s ProBond Advanced, a construction adhesive designed specifically for bonding porous to non-porous mixed materials, such as metal to wood or ceramic to drywall, to create a rotating wine rack made out of a bicycle wheel, as well as a shelf and coat rack constructed from a repurposed bicycle crank-set and handlebars. “More and more we’re seeing people personalize their home decor by transforming fascinating objects they love into home accessories and furnishings,” says Debelak. Go ahead, mix materials Vi n t a g e a n d c o n t e m p o r a r y design elements come together to
create rustic contemporary looks. “Reclaimed materials will heavily influence DIYers, and contrasting shiny and rustic materials in projects will definitely be trending in 2014,” says KariAnne Wood, designer, blogger and owner of Thistlewood Farms. Metal, wood, glass, ceramic - all of these key materials play essential roles in making your home the center of attention. Mixing two, or even all, of these together will give you an edge in creating a unique space. Consider gluing pieces of metal and wood together to construct an industrial-style coffee table. Able to work on almost any substrate, ProBond Advanced’s “opposites attract” formula delivers a heavyduty bond between porous and nonporous surfaces. The glue doesn’t leave a foam residue once it dries, so creating a masterpiece is as easy as glue, clamp and relax. Give piece(s) a chance Recycled wooden pallets and cable spools are trending now on Pinterest in 2014, as DIYers turn them into coffee tables, desks and wall art. “Homeowners are finding ways to bring an element of surprise to staple pieces. Taking utilitarian items and helping them live a new, more beautiful life will enhance any space this season,” says Wood. For a quick and simple patio transformation, spray paint large, wooden cable spools and use them as outdoor tables. Take it a step further by using ProBond Advanced to add a bold, ceramic tile mosaic without any grout, caulk or building required.
Organize organically Most people kick spring off with a little time devoted to organizing. There are easy ways to make your current space functional for your lifestyle without sacrificing your design preferences. Don’t let closet space get cluttered; rather, make use of a space you usually ignore. People are discovering new ways to make beautiful items more functional. That fabulous bench in your entryway may be storing winter coats in a secret storage space but your guests never need to know. Adding storage and improving organization can be just as creative as other spring decorating endeavors. Enhancing your storage solutions can include hanging an old door horizontally and attaching metal hooks to make an instant mudroom by your entryway. Wire baskets glued to wood shelves
become a great home for keys, shoes, and outdoor accessories. No time to build anything? Not to worry. Simply hang a shoe rack on the back of a door, and you have a perfect set of compartments to hold supplies in any room. This season, stay on trend without busting your budget (or your back) by stepping outside of your comfort zone and embracing your most creative ideas. Whether you’re upcycling old items found in the garage into new masterpieces, or giving a more modern pop to a traditional coffee table, this year’s trends involve unique materials and bold design elements. The possibilities are endless, and it’s important to have the right materials to complete every project quickly and correctly the first time. Learn more about Elmer’s ProBond Advanced to help you get the job done. - (BPT)

Judy Garland’s Malibu Beach House!
Old Hollywood singer and actress House! Judy Garland put many songs on the map which have become classics. This season we will again hear Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, made popular by her in the 1944 MGM musical Meet Me in St. Louis. Garland started out as a child star of Vaudeville parents who put her on stage with her siblings to sing Jingle Bells. She took to the spotlight instantly and had to be pulled off after repeating the song seven times. From that moment on, the stage was her realm and she revelled in the positive reaction from the audience. Garland won a “special” Oscar for her performance in the film Wizard of Oz, from which her song Over the Rainbow gained forever popularity. She went on to make 35 films, including Every Sunday, Babes in Arms, Little Nelly Kelly, For Me and
My Gal, The Harvey Girls, Meet Me in St. Louis, The Pirate, Easter Parade, A Star is Born, Judgment at Nuremberg, and A Child Is Waiting, and performed in innumerable concert shows around the globe until her early death at the age of 47. Throughout her life, Judy suffered from OCD and depression and was treated with a plethora of prescription drugs, which many believed were the reason for her death. The mother of Liza Minnelli from her marriage to director Vincente Minnelli, Judy was known almost as well for her tragic personal life as she was for her outstanding talent. In 1947, Judy bought a Malibu beach house, a retreat where she could relax to the repetitive soft sounds of the surf and bask in the sunshine with all its healing properties. It was a valuable escape in so many ways. Seventy years
later and after undergoing a massive renovation in 2013, the 1,728-squarefoot house on the sand has three bedrooms, three baths and 10-foot high accordion doors that open to the wraparound deck. The kitchen has Viking appliances and granite countertops and the second floor master has vaulted ceilings and a
private deck. The property is co-listed by Russell Grether and Tony Mark of Compass Realty in Malibu. Judy Garland’s former Malibu Beach getaway house is priced at $3.695 million. For More Information: TopTenRealEstateDeals.com. Source: compass.com

Our goal is to deliver an welcome experience that leaves residents excited and reassured that they made the best decision for their families in moving to Ladera Ranch. Equally important is encouraging residents to become an active participant in their community, through volunteering, attending events and programs, serving on a committee, attending board meetings, serving as a Neighborhood
Representative or a Neighborhood Activity Coordinator, coaching a sports team, and becoming active in local organizations like the Ladera Ranch Civic Council or the Ladera Rancho Chamber of Commerce. The event was a huge success. Many of the families said they enjoyed getting to know others who are new to Ladera, meeting the management executives and staff who put on the events and lifestyle activities and work for the master association. Residents had the opportunity to ask questions of the homeowner’s association representatives who are extremely knowledgeable when it
comes to knowing the benefits and responsibilities associated with being a LARMAC member. As the evening ended, each family was presented with a keepsake as they left for the evening – a framed photograph of the family that was taken on the way into the event. Photos were taken by Lea Prokopowicz Photography who volunteered to take photos for the evening. The next New Homeowner Welcome Receptions will be held on Tuesday, June 19 and Tuesday, September 25. Residents may RSVP on LaderaLife.com (events).

Hoag Womanology Event raises $1 million at Toshiba Classic As part of the 2018 Toshiba Classic, a PGA TOUR Champions event, community and business leaders gathered at Newport Beach Country Club to discuss women’s health and wellness at Hoag’s Second Annual Womanology event. Held at Newport Beach Country Club, this year’s Toshiba Classic marked Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian’s 20th anniversary as host, manager and beneficiary of the tournament, which raised more than $1 million for Hoag and other charities this year and has raised more than $20 million for Hoag over the last twenty years. The morning began with brunch overlooking the Newport Beach Country Club golf course, where attendees enjoyed grapefruit, pineapple and guava mimosas, a featured bagel wall, handmade acai bowls, sweet treats and spinach quiche. They learned about a variety of Hoag programs and services as they visited information booths in the Womanology Gallery. Then moving into the ballroom, they heard expert advice on hormones from diverse specialty areas including dermatology, cancer prevention, reproductive health, and genetics. Event sponsors included Allergan, Cigna, Helton, and Surterre Properties. Guest speakers included: Moderator Allyson M. Brooks, M.D., Ginny Ueberroth Executive Medical Director Endowed Chair, Hoag Women’s Health Institute, and Chief Quality Officer at Hoag; Stephanie Buehler, PsyD, CST-S, Licensed Psychologist & AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist at Hoag for Her Center for Wellness; Heather Macdonald, M.D., Breast Surgical Oncologist and Medical Director of Hoag Breast & Ovarian Cancer Prevention Program; Valentina Dalili, M.D., Geneticist and Director of Medical Genetics at Hoag Family Cancer Center; Patricia De Marco, M.D., Reproductive Psychiatrist and Physician Director of Hoag Women’s Maternal Mental Health Program; Neda Mehr, M.D., Board Certified Dermatologist, Hoag; Anusha Wijeyakumar, MA, CPC, RYT, Wellness Coach, Hoag for Her Center for Wellness. Hoag for Her Center for Wellness is a one-stop destination for women’s health that provides an integrative, proactive approach to health and wellness. A variety of services and classes are offered by certified practitioners, including: Pilates, massage therapy, acupuncture, fitness and nutrition, yoga and meditation, sex therapy / psychology and guided imagery. Hoag for Her Center for Wellness is also home to several women’s programs including Hoag Pelvic Health Program specializing in the treatment of pelvic floor disorders; Hoag Maternal Mental Health Program focusing on mental health for pregnant women and new moms up to one-year postpartum as well as Hoag Early Risk Assessment (HERA) Program helping women understand their risk for breast cancer. With locations in Newport Beach and Irvine, Hoag for Her Center for Wellness is helping women prevent illness and build wellness across the county. “When Hoag opened its doors more than 65 years ago, our founders envisioned a hospital to serve those in need in Orange County,” said Robert T. Braithwaite, president and chief executive officer, Hoag. “Our commitment to women’s health has never been stronger and through Hoag for Her Center for Wellness, we are able to expand access to much needed health services for women in our community.” For one week each year, the international spotlight shines brightly on Orange County’s only PGA TOUR-sanctioned event. Hosted at Newport Beach Country Club, the Hoag Classic (formerly named Toshiba Classic) showcases golf legends like Fred Couples, John Daly and Bernhard Langer as they compete for the title. The tournament has become the most philanthropic PGA TOUR Champions event by raising over $20 million, including more than $1 million annually for Hoag’s Mary & Dick Allen Diabetes Center, military causes and other community charities. Mark your calendars now for 2019, Hoag will take on the title sponsorship of the tournament, renaming it the Hoag Classic. The 2019 Hoag Classic will be held at Newport Beach Country Club March 4-10, 2019. For more information, visit toshibaclassic.com. Page 12
