Six ways to give your ceilings some respect. Page 5.

A ceiling of antique tin tile from an old Kentucky movie theater graces this room. There are plenty of easy ways to make over often-overlooked ceilings, from the quirky charm of Victorian-era, pressed-tin tiles and beadboard to something as simple as a splash of color.

Thrift stores great for repurpose-driven life

By LaReeca Rucker Jackson (Miss.) Clarion-Ledger

Fueled by the economy, environmental awareness and a creative desire to be innovative, repurposing definitely has a purpose.

The decor style, which first gained popularity in 1989 with designers such as Cal-

Jerry McFarland

ifornia’s Rachel Ashwell of Shabby Chic fame, has been updated and propelled by Pinterest.com.

“I wouldn’t call it ‘shabby chic,’ which is sort of a dated term that describes a French country and lace weathered look,” says Mary Katherine McKelroy, of The Green Room in Jackson, Miss. “I

think of it more as a combination of the environmentally friendly idea of repurposing and reusing, and the search for a little zip, pizzazz and fun in the items you surround yourself with.”

Going green has a lot to do with it, she says.

“Americans have a propensity for using and then throw-

ing away ... the latest, newest, trendiest, shiniest items,” she says, “when in fact, items with history and whimsy can have more meaning.”

Save the Dates for the 2012 Parade of Homes May 12-13 & May 19-20!

Understanding Owner-Builder Responsibilities State law (Florida Statutes, Chapter 489.103) allows owners of property to be their own building contractor without the requirement of a license. In today’s economy, people are looking for ways to save money anyway they can.

But let me warn you: what is allowable may not be advisable.

To make my point, there’s a 19th Century proverb that offers an analogy to owner-builders: “A man who serves as his own lawyer has a fool for a client.”

With all due respect to the men and women who have construction skills and are fully-capable of supervising the building of their home, I am compelled to alert anyone considering it to understand the risks and responsibilities of doing your own contracting.

First, there is a dollar limit to the amount of work an owner-builder can do – that threshold is $75,000 (structure only) – and the licensing exemption applies only to one- and two-family residences or a farm outbuilding.

Second, any owner-built property cannot be sold or leased less than one year after the construction. If it is, regulators consider it evidence that the property was built for commercial, not personal, purposes.

Third, and this is where the rubber meets the road, ownerbuilders have to sign a disclosure statement developed by the local permitting agency in which they acknowledge their responsibilities in order to be exempt from the state licensing law for contractors.

These responsibilities include: • Direct, on-site supervision of the construction process.

• Prohibition against hiring an unlicensed person to act as a contractor or supervise persons working on the building or residence.

• Acknowledging that you as the owner-builder may be held liable and subjected to serious financial risk for injuries sustained by an unlicensed person or his or her TD-0000202955

employees while working on your property.

• Compliance with federal income tax, social security contributions, and workers’ compensation requirements for any unlicensed person on your site.

• Compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances, building codes, and zoning regulations.

Acknowledging that you are the party legally and financially responsible for the construction activity.

You might be interested to know that in this same Florida Statute, homeowners are exempt from any work or operation of a casual, minor, or inconsequential nature in which the aggregate contract price for labor, materials, and all other items less than $1,000.

It’s also important to understand that Chapter 489 stipulates that a contract between an individual and an unlicensed contractor is unenforceable in court… just one more reason to steer clear of unlicensed individuals for work required to be performed by a licensee.

Please understand that the purpose of this article is not to discourage anyone from doing their own construction or using handymen for small jobs. Again, the goal is that you go into such situations with your eyes open and with a clear understanding of the potential pitfalls.

If you do need the help of professional contractors and construction-related specialists, consider the members of the Tallahassee Builders Association (TBA). Our membership roster is on our web site at www.tallyba.com.

For the best in Tallahassee-area new homes and remodeling projects, be sure to visit the Parade of Homes ® May 12-13 and May 19-20.

how many doors we sold for girls who wanted them for headboards in their apartment,” she says. “At Christmas, we sold a ton of old shutters for people to clip photographs on.”

Bushing says she and her husband have made lights out of old trombones and mixer whisks, created a chandelier out of a tornado siren, built hall trees from old doors, transformed an old coffee cart into a chaise lounge, and crafted benches from old metal headboards using reclaimed wood and metal.

“We got a couple of pieces of old pinball machines, and we are about to make furniture out of that,” she says.

Bushing says television programs like “American Pickers” and “Picker Sisters” are also influencing the trend.

“Maybe it’s just bringing to the forefront something that people haven’t really thought about before,” she says.

Amy Partridge began repurposing last year. One project turned a dresser into a diaper-changing station.

“I think the trend pulls a rustic, antique and modern feel all into one,” she says.

“The colors really pop. You don’t have to go completely

antique or completely modern with this look.

“If you have older pieces handed down from the family that you don’t want to redo, you can add them in.”

Flea market vendor Linda Sanders calls it cottage style.

“I’ve painted furniture all my life, even way back before Rachel Ashwell came out with shabby chic,” she says. She believes the economy is fueling the trend.

Amy Sugg, who sells Amy’s Antiques and Gifts at the Flowood Flea Market, says it’s fueled by Pinterest.com.

“That has been a real key element in a lot of people’s creativity,” she says. “I’ve had people tell me all kinds of things they are repurposing. It’s a great way to tie in that old family heirloom.”

Sugg says a good deal of interest is coming from the younger generation — teens to mid-20s.

“A girl came in the other day and says she found a rake that she was going to cut the handle off, mount it some way, and turn it into a wine glass holder,” she says.

“She was just tickled pink finding an old rake, and I’m thinking ‘OK.’”

Remember the ceiling when decorating a room

By Sarah Wolfe The Associated Press

Ceilings are the Rodney Dangerfield of homes. They get no respect.

But there are plenty of easy ways to make over this oft-overlooked area, from the quirky charm of Victorian-era, pressed-tin tiles and beadboard to a simple splash of color.

“Historically, ceilings were highly decorated, but it seems as houses have become more modern they have been forgotten,” says San Francisco-based interior designer Cecilie Starlin.

“Once again, though, ceilings are starting to get the attention they deserve.”

Here are some suggestions — from the simple to the complex — to transform your ceilings from drab white squares into the focal point of a room.

ceilings to minimize light reflection and mask imperfections, says Puji Sherer of the eco-paint manufacturer YOLO Colorhouse in Portland, Ore. “Since ceilings are not in danger of greasy fingerprints and the regular wear and tear that walls receive, higher gloss finishes are not necessary,” she says.

Paneling

For a classic New England cottage look, you can’t beat the charm of wood paneling such as beadboard on the ceiling.

Amy Matthews, a contractor and host of the DIY Network’s “Sweat Equity,” prefers the ease of gluing and nailing larger beadboard

Pressed-Tin Panels

These are a popular ceiling option if you’re looking for a folksy, vintage feel, and they also come in larger patterned-metal sheets for easier installation, Ban-

don says.

The panels can be nailed in place with a hammer or nail gun onto furring strips that must first be nailed up, according to thisoldhouse.com.

Overlap the edges and seal the panels with a clear polyurethane or paint them with an oil-based paint.

Drop Panel Ceiling

Many people shudder at the thought of a drop panel ceiling, envisioning the white utilitarian grids and fluorescent lighting common in 1960s basements and office buildings.

But Matthews says today’s drop ceilings are handsomer, designed in many more colors and textures. Several companies even make indi-

vidual panels in materials such as wood and tin that fit into existing metal grid systems, giving homeowners a cheaper way to bring their drop ceiling into the 21st century, Matthews says.

Coffered Ceiling

Originally used during the Renaissance and popularized in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, coffered ceilings are one of the more complex ceiling projects, but also the most formal and dramatic.

The process involves attaching flat or more intricately molded beams to the ceiling to create a square, grid-like pattern that is then typically trimmed out with crown molding, Bandon says.

It drops your ceilings down, so use caution in a small room, but it adds instant classic elegance to a dining or living room.

“It’s a great way to hide flaws in your ceiling,” Bandon says. “It’s also a great way to hide duct work or something you have to put in your ceiling.”

Building a soffit box around the perimeter of a ceiling also can give the look of a layered, coffer-like ceiling, says Ken Collier, editor-in-chief of The Family Handyman magazine.

Install recessed lighting in the soffit box or run downlights along the top to make the light “kind of wash along the walls. It looks very dramatic,” Collier says.

Ceiling Medallion

CCAA President

Probably the easiest way to bring the eye upward in a room is with a ceiling medallion, a white or colored decorative disk typically mounted around a lighting fixture.

The pieces come in a variety of styles and can be found in any home improvement store. Another bonus? Today’s lighter polyurethane models are much simpler to install and easier on the wallet than those from decades past, says Alex Bandon, online editor of thisoldhouse.com.

“I personally like that look in the bedroom,” she says.

“It’s a really unusual thing, but it makes a simple bedroom much more romantic and exciting.”

Housing for Older Persons

by Cathy L. Lucrezi, Attorney at Law

Although Fair Housing laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of familial status, they also allow for housing specifically designed to meet the needs of senior citizens. If the rental unit meets the definition of “housing for older persons”, the landlord is exempt from the law’s familial status requirements.

Types of HOP There are three types of HOP: 1. The complex or community is part of a government program specifically designed for and occupied by elderly persons; 2. The complex or community is occupied solely by persons who are 62 or older; or,

Is your rental unit part of HOP 55+?

Fitting the definition is not easy. To qualify, the housing provider must keep excellent records showing that each household in the complex has at least one person who is over the age of 55. The “census” records must be regularly updated and maintained in a format that can be easily reviewed by HUD. The housing provider must establish a written policy showing that it is HOP 55+. Furthermore, the housing provider must show he follows that written policy. It has to be put into practice, not selectively enforced.

All of the advertising for the property should state that the place is housing for older persons.

Saying “adults only” is bad. Saying “a 55+ community” or “housing for 55+” is ok.

Effects of the exemption

3. There is at least one person who is 55 or older in at least 80 percent of the occupied units in the complex or community, and the landlord adheres to a policy that demonstrates intent to house persons who are 55 or older.

Once the community fits the definition, the community can refuse to rent to children. It can insist that all members of the household be over the age of 55 even though the statute allows a bit of a cushion. If the housing is truly HOP 55+, the landlord can impose restrictions on children playing in the community that could never be done in other housing.

Of the three, a property manager is most likely to encounter the third one – the 55+ category.

If the complex or housing community satisfies the legal definition housing for older persons, it can legally exclude families with children.

The HOP 55+ exception is very narrow. It lets the landlord “off the hook” in regards to families with children, but with no other protected class. The landlord is still obligated to offer housing without regard to a tenant’s race, color, religion, sex, national origin, and handicap.

The Capital City Apartment Association wants to help the Ronald McDonald House children have a Happy Easter. Will you join us?

TD-0000201803

Paint

If you have tall ceilings or want a cozy feel, extend the wall color onto the ceiling, or go bold and throw a darker or contrasting color up above to make the area appear smaller.

“Color on the ceiling is not forbidden,” Bandon says.

It’s “something you can play around with a bit.”

Go with a flat paint on

sheet panels to the ceiling rather than tacking up individual tongue-and-groove pieces.

The panels, which can be cut with a power or handsaw, should be nailed to ceiling joists, and can then be stained or painted.

Bandon likes the look in bathrooms, where wainscoted walls are common, or on front-porch ceilings, in a traditional light-blue color that was thought to keep insects away.

Building a Basket is Simple

Now, What to Put in the Basket?

1. Purchase a BIG basket, fill it with grass then let your staff or residents get in on the fun by providing items for the basket.

2. Once the basket is filled, wrap the basket with cellophane or a plastic gift bag.

3. If you choose to get gender/age specific, tag the basket with the specifics, i.e., “Boy, age 4-8” or “Girl, age 9-13”.

Items that the children can enjoy while in bed or in a chair.

Here are a few items you may want to consider.

The CCAA will first provide baskets to the Ronald McDonald House children then the rest will be given to the homeless children. You can bring your basket to the March luncheon meeting or drop off at Spanish Oaks Clubhouse by April 3rd.

• Crayons and coloring book • Colorful soft blanket • Girls fingernail polish or decals • Temporary tattoos • Remote controlled vehicle • Portable DVD player and/or DVD • Games (for one or two players) • Walkmans and/or CD • and of course CANDY!!

• Easy craft kit • Barbie • Cars or trucks • Books • Puzzle • Deck of cards • Stuffed animal • Plastic eggs

Feeling optimistic? Might be the decor Tallahassee Democrat / REAL ESTATE

By Kim Cook The Associated Press

There’s something about the start of spring. When life’s renewing itself outdoors, we feel the urge to revive our interiors too.

This season, decor offerings are especially upbeat.

Start with the palette. “Saturated” is a word being used a lot; it means ripe plum hues, intense tangerines, rich indigos, verdant greens, zingy turquoises, hot reds and peppy yellows.

Dee Schlotter, a color expert with PPG Pittsburgh Paints, says exuberant orange is No. 1 on her trend radar.

“It’s full of joy and playful,” says Schlotter, who also cites Geranium Pink as a hot hue. “It goes really well with orange, and it’s a happy, girly color.”

Teal and turquoise are back after a lengthy retirement, and with experience in mid-century modern and traditional decor, they’ve got legs that will carry them into fall.

Neutrals are “taking the popular gray trend and moving it forward, by adding warmth with natural materials like jute and linen, and then giving it a real punch by adding a sunny pop of yellow,” says Sherwin-Williams’ color marketing director, Jackie Jordan.
