To identify the most energy-efficient windows for your home, refer to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) climate zone map, which divides the country into four regions. For each region, the agency provides recommended values for the two major characteristics that affect the energy efficiency of vinyl windows: the U-Factor (which measures the window’s insulating value) and the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (which represents the amount of heat from the sun that passes through the glass). Learn the specs of any windows you’re interested in before making a purchase to ensure they’re a good fit for your region. Wherever you live, make sure Continued page 5

Illuminating Ideas for Hanging String Lights in Your Backyard (StatePoint) So, you’ve created the backyard of your dreams and love everything about it -- except that seeing your surroundings can sometimes be a challenge once the sun’s gone down. As the days grow shorter and we head into fall, it’s one of the best times of year to enhance your backyard life at night. While hiring someone to install outdoor lighting can be really expensive and involved, patio string lights are a simple, costeffective solution. Best of all, you can create a look that reflects your style using any number of patterns. In a recent episode of “DoneIn-A-Weekend Projects” called “Light Up Your Life,” expert landscape designer Doug Scott demonstrated how to hang string lights, as well as discussed what to consider before, and while, doing so.

VALLEY HO or free-form pattern. For a more uniform look, you can simply hang lights across the center or around the perimeter of the space. “Regardless, just make sure your design represents you and how you want to live outside,” says Scott. 3. When measuring your lights, be sure to add a few feet on each pass to allow for slack. One other thing you’ll want to consider is whether you’ll be able to make light connections in discreet places, ideally where they connect to the wall, post or tree. “Having a connection in the middle of a swag won’t be the end of the world, but you’ll want to minimize this as much as possible,” says Scott. 4. Install your hooks according to your plan. Then, hang your lights with the bulbs removed to decrease your chances of breaking them. You’ll also want to make sure that your first strand reaches an outlet, or you have an extension cord that will. Once you’re satisfied with your general look, install one bulb in each strand to test that everything is working properly. If all is good, install the rest of the bulbs, light them up, then kick back and enjoy. Need some inspiration to get started? A free downloadable guide from Exmark, which

What to Know When Updating Your Home’s Siding (StatePoint) With climate change spurring an uptick in extreme weather events in recent years, homeowners today know that to keep their property -- and the people in it -- best protected, the siding they select matters. “Not only will the right materials better insulate against extreme temperatures, but durable materials will also help guard against wicked weather and storms,” says Jon Lapp, siding project manager, ProVia. “And of course, siding has a major impact on the look of your home exterior.” The good news is that you don’t need to sacrifice curb appeal in the pursuit of highquality siding. Here’s what to know when making this important upgrade: • Materials: Your choice of materials can impact how you feel about your house for years to come. To that end, consider the most popular home siding material, which, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s Survey of Construction, is vinyl siding. First introduced in the 1960s, its popularity is no accident. Thanks to its low cost, ease of installation, minimal maintenance and long-term beauty and durability, it’s a favorite choice among installers and homeowners. Just be sure

that the siding you select is formulated with weatherand heat-resistant materials, as well as UV blockers to protect against color fade. • Insulation: Did you know that most wall insulation is placed only between the studs? Since wall studs represent up to 25% of the wall surface of an average home, that’s like having one entire wall with no insulation at all. Insulated siding blankets your home, providing continuous insulation between the studs and exterior wall of your home. USE THIS FORM FOR $1.00 NON-BUSINESS READER ADS. Look for insulated siding options that are tested and proven to increase the R-value (a measure of a material’s resistance to heat flow) of an exterior wall. One such option is NAME CedarMAX insulated vinyl siding from ProVia. One of the ADDRESS most energy-efficient exterior claddings on

the market, it can help reduce your energy bills. It’s also built with a strong, rigid foam backing that can bridge the subtle bows and dips present on almost every wall. This will make for longer, straighter panels for increased curb appeal, as well as greater impact resistance against rain, hail and contact with your child’s fastball. And because it resists fading, chalking, cracking, peeling and thermal expansion and contraction, it will have a longer, more environmentallysustainable life. • Color: Color and beauty are huge factors in your home improvement decision.

Hate Bugs? Here’s How to to Remove the Ick-Factor From Your Home afternoon to caulk small cracks in your home’s foundation and siding. This is a quick, easy and affordable way to seal these common entry points for bugs. 3. Remove their food source: Bugs need a food source to survive, so keep your home clean. In the kitchen, seal your trash bin and remove its contents regularly, wipe down surfaces -- especially after spills, and sweep up those crumbs. A cockroach can survive months on a single crumb of food! Be sure to regularly vacuum furniture, rugs and carpets in any room where you eat. 4. Blast bugs: Bugs will find their way into your home no matter how hard you try to keep them out. Because a small bug problem can spread quickly, it’s important to Y LF B IL HA T MA EC DIR

(c) Louella Reese @louellareese (StatePoint) Hate bugs? You’re not alone. Nearly seven in 10 Americans can’t sleep if they know there’s an insect in the room, according to a recent survey conducted by OnePoll for Zevo. The same poll also found that two in three Americans would give up a month’s pay to not deal with bugs! Science says your visceral reaction is actually quite rational. According to researchers at the University of California, Davis, those creepycrawly feelings you may experience upon seeing a bug is simply nature’s way of helping you avoid pathogens and parasites. The good news? Insect experts say that there are steps you can take to protect your home turf from disgusting bugs and other pests. “While you should not lose your healthy distaste for bugs, you can take steps to keep them out of your home,” says Daniel Perry, entomologist at Procter & Gamble. Here are a few ways to help keep America’s top three hated bugs: cockroaches, spiders and ants, along with a host of other common insects, out of your home. 1. Guard doors and windows: Keep doors and windows sealed when they’re not in use. If you love a fresh breeze, be sure that your screen doors and windows are in tip top shape and contain no holes. Don’t have a screen door? Consider quickly installing a mesh door screen over your front door or patio door that seals up the middle with a magnet. This is a good choice for renters and others unable to make more intensive home updates. 2. Seal holes: Use an

be ready to meet them head-on. Zevo sprays, including the brand’s Multi-Insect Killer Spray, are powered by essential oils. Zevo’s BioSelective Technology was developed by experts to be targeted to bugs’ unique biology, plus Zevo is safe for use around people and pets when used as directed.

insects from invading your home, you can swing into action at the first sign of bugs to make sure it doesn’t become a bigger problem for you and your family later.

How to Personalize Any Space Using Custom-Designed Wallpaper

VALLEY AUCTIONS

(StatePoint) In case you missed it, wallpaper has made a comeback in the interior design world. This is for good reason. Today, there are literally millions of designs from which to choose. Not only that, new types of wallpaper can make application and removal easier than ever. Need a little inspiration? The world’s largest custom, print-on-demand fabric, wallpaper and home decor digital marketplace, Spoonflower, recently challenged home decorating bloggers to “facelift” a small space using wallpaper. Having successfully completed their updates, these DIY-ers are sharing tips and insights for enhancing your own spaces: • Create a focal point. Bethany Sy, the blogger behind Reality Day Dream, who enhanced the wall behind her mantel with wallpaper

you can use it to update furniture too. Take a cue from Victoria Ford, the Prepford Wife blogger who recently refreshed an old dresser with the Bee Life Toile wallpaper designed by independent artist, Lucinda Wei. “This dresser has lived many lives in our homes and it was time for it to get a little update with a design that was irresistible and perfectly on brand,” says Ford. • Complement your current style: As Ashley Dusing of Our 1917 Farmhouse notes, wallpaper can be paired with any room’s current design elements to enhance its overall style. “We selected a wallpaper with a vintage style to complement our mid century bedroom decor and offer a (c) Bethany Sy, blogger Reality Daydream bold pop of color. It was everything this says, “A little color and pattern can create the bedroom (turned office space) needed.” perfect focal point in any room.” • Consider your needs: Before selecting • Think beyond walls: With a little creativity, wallpaper, think about your home decorating wallpaper doesn’t just have to be for walls, habits. For example, Spoonflower offers three wallpaper options: Prepasted Removable Smooth wallpaper, Peel and Stick Removable wallpaper and Non-Pasted Traditional Pebble wallpaper. If you love to mix things up every year or every season, Charlotte Smith of At Charlotte’s House says peel and stick is the way to go. She recently wallpapered the fireplace surround in her family room, but already has sights on the future. “I used removable peel and stick wallpaper so I can easily change things up in a year or two if I want a different vibe.” When redesigning your space with wallpaper, consider shopping with a company that supports independent artists, such as Spoonflower, which connects artists and makers with consumers in the creative economy, and pays a commission to an independent artist with every purchase. With over one million unique designs available and the ability to upload your own design, you can easily use wallpaper to create your own signature style at home. To learn more or to shop styles, visit spoonflower.com. Whether you wallpaper an entire room, create an accent wall or revamp a piece of furniture, adding style and personality to your interior spaces can be easy with this impactful DIY project. ***** ---------------------------------------------- ------------------------------in as little as one hour --------------- PHOTO SOURCE: (c) Bethany Powered by Sy, blogger Reality Daydream PHOTO order today wegmans.com/instacart CAPTION:
