Dandelion festival offers new perspective est from the community surfaced, with people requesting space to share their expertise in celebrating plants most people loathe.

“The idea that dandelions are enemies and we should spray them harms the planet,” says Keynote speaker Brigitte Mars, herbalist and author of the “Desktop Guide to Herbal Medicine.”

“They feed insects, animals, and people.” Mars will be speaking on the value of wild, edible and medicinal weeds.

“The whole idea is to rethink the American lawn, which uses water we don’t have. There’s a rumor that dandelions kill lawns, which stems from grass dying off from a lack of water, and only dandelions survive. People think that they killed the lawn, but they didn’t. They just don’t need lots of water or fertilizer to survive,” Mars says.

Sanders understands many hate this charming lawn invader.

“Many people dislike them, so if you really want that war, do hand combat. There are really great

The powder room – it’s one of the smallest rooms in the house, but also the room that typically sees the most traffic, especially when you’re entertaining guests.

So, is your powder room worthy of guest traffic? Just because it’s the smallest room doesn’t mean it needs to be small in style. Rather, it is the perfect opportunity to take a risk and design a space your guests won’t soon forget.

Getting Started If the floor plan of your space isn’t going to change (plumbing won’t move and walls won’t be knocked down), updating your powder room can be simple and affordable. To start your room redesign, you’ll need to identify your personal style.

Start by looking at the rest of your house. Determine whether you prefer contemporary or traditional decor and imagine how your new powder room will fit in with the rest of your home. To spark new ideas and keep current on trends, visit a local kitchen and bath showroom, a model

home or a show home that features bath and powder rooms. Flipping through magazines or visiting home improvement Web sites can also inspire great ideas. Articles on recent room makeovers and new bath products can help you determine which elements you want to be part of your room.

Selecting the Pieces You’re working with a relatively small space, so every styling detail counts. Some manufacturers are making it even easier for homeowners to coordinate their pieces by designing complete suites.

“Danze recently introduced several suite options that make decor coordination much easier for homeowners,” says Jennifer Lee, Danze director of marketing. “The Orrington, Cirtangular and Ziga Zaga Collections are each meticulously designed to provide room elements that perfectly match each other.”

So what elements comprise that suite? In addition to accessories and a mirror, here are a few of the imperative pieces you’ll need to choose for your room.

Lavatory Sink Many designers and homeowners try to maximize space in their powder room. A pedestal sink might be the best way to do just that. And because storage is less critical in this room, a pedestal sink provides a clean, open look to the area.

If a pedestal sink isn’t your style, explore the range of vessel sinks available. These “bowls” sit on top of a vanity cabinet and can bring a unique design expression to the room.

Design tip: Select an interesting material for your vessel bowl like stone, timeless vitreous china, blown glass or hammered metal to create an attention-getting, distinctive look for your sink.

Kristi Ritter Summer Stair

Faucet The faucet you choose will help pull the decor together and can serve as an extra piece of “jewelry” for the room.

There are many different styles of bathroom faucets, but popular powder room versions include vessel fillers (to accommodate vessel sinks), wall-mount faucets and wide-spread faucets. The faucet’s finish and scale is also a critical selection to attain the mood you’re hoping to create.

Design tip: If you’re considering a wall-mount faucet, have your plumbing professional mount it through the glass of your mirror. What a reflection of style.

Toilet While maybe not the sexiest piece in the powder room, the toilet is arguably one of the most important elements. There’s no doubt that performance should be at the top of your checklist when selecting this piece, but you don’t need to sacrifice style. Some toilets are now designed as part of a collection, matching your sink and the other pieces in your room. In addition to style and performance, look for ergonomic design and water efficiency when making your selection.

Design tip: Choose a toilet lever that matches the style and finish of your faucet and bath accessories. They’re easy to switch out and can be a noticeable design detail. You’ll look like a professional.

HUD homes require the same contracts as others

Divine diva tames the Wild West

Fran and Jeff never dreamed they would raise their family in a log cabin.

But when they found a rustic, revamped log house on the outskirts of the city, they decided to be modern-day pioneers and move right in.

Outside, it was all trees, ravines and greenery. But inCandice Olson side, it was another story.

HGTV Some of the rooms had been updated, but the home’s great room was still stuck in the Wild West. The gigantic space had a lot of promise, but it was overshadowed by all of the outdated lighting and shabby furniture, not to mention a huge wagon-wheel chandelier.

The couple had no idea how to make the huge room more elegant and sophisticated while keeping the room’s cabin vibe. So they called me in and asked if I could give their great room one great big update.

The space boasted soaring ceilings, rich wood paneling and a beautiful stone wall, all of which added to the lodge feeling.

I started the redesign at the focal point of the room – a soaring stone fireplace. I used this fireplace as the jumping-off point for the colors in the room – a palette of sage, stone, taupe and caramel – and for the scale of the new furniture.

To add interest to the fireplace wall, I put up a long mirror in a beautiful wooden frame that reduces the scale of the stone and reflects a good portion of the room. I got rid of the dated furniture and arranged a new lounge area around the fireplace with two huge sofas, a wooden coffee table, an area rug

Top: After some accents and accessories, including patterned pillows, baskets, plants and artwork, the space was finally transformed from rural shabby to rustic chic.

Bottom: Before, the main room had promise, but it was overshadowed by all of the outdated. (SHNS/HGTV)

Q: My friend is trying to buy a house from a man who says that he owns a HUD house. He wants $80,000 for the property, with $500 down. The house looks like it should sell for $100,000 or more.

He asked my friend to fax a copy of his ID and Social Security card to his office. I just don’t believe this is real because it’s too good to be true. Who can my friend contact to see if this house is for sale without being scammed?

A: This deal has scam written all over it.

First, HUD homes are regular houses with FHA loans on them that have gone into foreclosure. HUD sells HUD homes online and HUD-certified real estate agents can make offers for buyers online.

Can you see what’s wrong with the situation your friend is facing? And, I probably don’t need to tell you that you’d never have Ilyce Glink to fax any legitimate real estate agent your Tribune Media Services contact information or Social Security information. That’s just asking to have your identity stolen.

Your friend needs the help of a smart real estate agent who is HUD-certified and probably the assistance of a real estate attorney.

Is the person offering the home to your friend a HUD-certified real estate agent? The agent can look up the property and tell you if it is for sale or not and show your friend some other properties in the area that are a good deal at the same time.

The attorney can do all of the due diligence necessary to make sure this deal of a lifetime isn’t really a scam, and can also help put together the documents your friend will need to get a loan and close.

Just remember, if it doesn’t smell right to you at this point, it probably isn’t right for you. Good luck to your friend.

and beautiful pieces for storage. As a replacement to the old wagon-wheel fixture, I installed an elegant chandelier with an antique finish.

Adjacent to the lounge area, by a big window, I created a library nook. I put in a beautiful round wood table, two antique-leather lounge chairs and flanked the window with two dark-wood bookcases.

Above this area, which also boasts a beautiful piano, I installed a smaller version of the larger chandelier.

The space had five quirky windows of varying heights, so to unify them, I put up long, beautiful draperies in linen, light sage and orange hues. But while the windows gave some light to the space, the room was still fairly dark owing to the wood paneling. So in addition to the two new chandeliers, I put up track lighting, flanked one of the big windows with two traditional sconces and filled up the room with an assortment of lamps.

After some accents and accessories, including patterned pillows, baskets, plants and artwork, the space was finally transformed from rural shabby to rustic chic.

This room had a good start but needed a great finish. So I added layers of lighting, fresh furnishings and modern accessories, and gave Fran and Jeff a great room that lives up to its name. Now that’s divine.

Q: My wife is on the title to our home, but not on the mortgage. If I miss a payment or default on a loan, is her credit affected the same? Can I remove her name from the title, and how would I go about doing that? I don’t want to take the chance of ruining her credit. Thanks.

A: If she is not on the mortgage, whether you pay on time, sporadically or not at all should not be reported to her Social Security number.

You shouldn’t have to take her off the title, but pull a copy of her credit history just to be sure she’s not listed somehow on the mortgage. Your wife can get a free copy of her credit history from each of the three major credit-reporting bureaus by going to www.Annual CreditReport.com. She may be offered the ability to obtain her credit score for about $8, but she does not need to do that to get the reports.

There are times that lenders will allow a borrower to buy a home and use only the credit history and credit score of that buyer to grant the loan. Yet, at the same time the lender will allow a spouse to be on title but not on the loan to the home.

When lenders proceed along these lines, the spouse is on title and on the mortgage, but the spouse does not sign the promise to repay money to the lender. In this manner the spouse doesn’t have the legal obligation to repay the money owed on the loan, but has an ownership right to the home.

If your wife is on title but isn’t on the mortgage, you might have added her name to the title to the home sometime after you obtained the loan for the home. In either case, your wife shouldn’t be responsible for any late payments on the loan and her credit shouldn’t be affected if you miss a payment.

Churchill letter appears authentic

By Helaine Fendelman and Joe Rosson Scripps Howard News Service

Dear Helaine and Joe: I would like your professional opinion concerning the attached photocopy of a letter. Do you think Winston Churchill genuinely signed the letter? – D.K.

Article Resource Association

According to Energy Star Partner of the Year Jeld-Wen Windows and Doors, windows with insulated low-e glass help keep rooms cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. (ARA)

Start at the Front A home’s front door can play a vital role as one of the first lines of defense against the elements. If a door does not close properly or lets in a draft, a homeowner’s utility bills can pay the price. Homeowners should check the weather-strip

ping and any gaps around the door that can let heat escape.

Glass Matters Choosing windows with insulated low-e glass is an important step in making a room energy efficient because the special coating helps reflect some of the interior heat back into the home. These doublepane windows also greatly enhance energy efficiency, compared to single-pane windows.

Drive Home Efficiency For energy savings in the garage, find a proper-fitting garage door and make sure that the door leading from the garage to the inside of the home is also energy efficient.

Dear D.K.: To provide a truly professional opinion, we would have to see the object in question. But we have studied the handwriting and have arrived at a judgment that we believe is correct.

Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill entered the world on Nov. 30, 1872, and died on Jan. 24, 1965. He is an iconic figure in 20th-century world history, and today his name and voice are known by almost every schoolchild.

D.K.’s typewritten letter, addressed to “Wilfred E. Fish, Esq., CBE,” appears on 10 Downing St. stationery during the time of Churchill’s second stint as prime minister. Actually, we think this might be Dr. Wilfred E. Fish, who was dean of the faculty of dental surgery, Royal College of Surgeons of England, from 1956 to 1959. Fish was also Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (CBE), an order of chivalry.

Even though the contents of this letter are mundane, collectors still strongly desire Churchill’s autograph written during his time as prime minister.

One consistent problem with 20th-century autographs of important figures: the possibility that a secretary or publicist mimicked the signature. Therefore, we feel it has an insurance-replacement value of $1,600 to $2,000.

To maximize a home’s energy efficiency, consider these handy tips.

After a long, cold winter, spring is the perfect time to give your home an energy checkup to see which home improvement projects will save on utility bills.

Many energy makeovers start with investigating old windows and doors. Nearly 26 percent of homeowners say what the most dislike about their existing windows and doors is that they are drafty or inefficient, according to a study commissioned by Jeld-Wen, a leading manufacturer of windows and doors and a 2010 Energy Star Partner of the Year. As outside temperatures rise in summer and dip in winter, homeowners notice that these inefficiencies quickly turn into high energy bills.

As much as half of the energy used in a home goes toward heating and cooling, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. To minimize the energy and dollars spent to cool a home in summer and heat it during the winter, it’s essential that windows and doors are energy efficient.

In 2010, new windows and doors can also be efficient for your

Spring is a time of new beginnings.

Flowers and plants are blooming, the sun is shining and the weather is finally getting warmer after winter’s chill. So why not bring some of spring’s beauty into your home so you can enjoy it day after day?

“Some people think they have to purchase new accessories to refresh their home for spring. Nothing could be further from the truth,” says Christine Silverman, director of small project paints for Rust-Oleum.

“There are some easy, affordable ways to bring spring into your home by ‘upcycling’ the things you already have. These simple projects are fun ways to give a new beginning to the things you have sitting in the garage or basement, while keeping them out of the land fill. It’s a win-win for both you and Mother Nature.”

Bring your Flower Garden Indoors A great way to perk up a home for spring is by decorating rooms where you spend the most time – like the living or family room or kitchen – with flowers. By spray

painting flower pots you already own bright yellow, purple or green and grouping them into indoor “gardens,” you will give them new life, while bringing the great outdoors inside. Consider using Painter’s Touch Ultra Cover 2X, a fast-drying spray paint that works well on wood, wicker, metal, plaster or unglazed ceramic and resists chipping and fading.

Winds of Change Adding color to a ceiling or oscillating fan is a great way to add a pop of color in an unexpected way. Rediscover a fan you have stored in the attic. Or find a good deal on a fan that compliments your personality at a flea market or discount store and bring it home for a facelift. Covering the fan in just one coat of inexpensive spray paint in a fresh spring color will create a conversation piece that will last throughout the year. For this project, try using Rust-Oleum Universal spray paint. Its unique trigger spray makes it easy to use at any angle and it can be used on any surface – plastic, metal, wood and more.

Bring the Outdoor Patio Furniture Inside Remember the old wicker chair and loveseat you picked up at Aunt Ida’s garage sale? They’re not just for outside. Spray paint them with one coat of Painter’s Touch Ultra Cover 2X with Advanced Double Cover Technology in a bright spring color like Aqua or Green Apple and suddenly you have new seating that is perfect for your sunroom, front porch or foyer.

Restore and Renew Flea Market Finds Flea markets are full of treasures that sometimes just need a little TLC to give them new life.

Save that dingy chandelier, tarnished lamp or outdated bookcase from the trash by restoring it with a fresh coat of spray paint, which is sometimes all that is needed to turn garage sale or flea market finds into treasures.

New alternatives to foreclosure on homes unveiled

By Marcie Geffner bankrate.com

Homeowners who can’t afford their mortgage payments may want to take a look at the federal government’s new alternative to foreclosure: the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternative program, which intended to encourage lenders to facilitate short sales and deeds-in-lieu, or DIL, as alternatives to foreclosure.

The program, which is a part of the Home Affordable Modification Program, may help some homeowners escape a bad situation, but the rules are complicated and they won’t be able to keep their homes.

U.S. Treasury Assistant Secretary Herbert Allison explained the concept in congressional testimony.

“HAMP does not, nor was it ever intended to, address every delinquent loan,” he says. “In these instances, the borrower may benefit from an alternative that helps the borrower transition to more affordable housing and avoid the substantial costs of foreclosure.”

Here are some details from the government’s 43-page directive for loan servicers.

• A short sale allows the homeowner to sell the home and use the proceeds to satisfy the first mortgage even if the sale price is less than the loan balance.

• A DIL allows the homeowner to voluntarily give up the home to satisfy the first mortgage even if the home is worth less than the loan balance.

• The homeowner can get preapproval for a short sale at a specific minimum price or net proceeds before the home is put on the market.

• The homeowner can receive $1,500 for relocation expenses at closing. This sum may be reported to the Internal Revenue Service as income.

• The home must be the homeowner’s principal residence.

• The mortgage must be delinquent, or default must be reasonably foreseeable.

• The unpaid loan balance must be less than $729,750 for a single house or condominium.

Higher limits are allowed for twoto four-unit residential properties.

• The homeowner’s monthly mortgage payment must be more than 31 percent of his or her gross income.

• The homeowner must transfer clear title. The lender will allow up to 3 percent of each second loan or lien, up to $3,000 in total, to help the homeowner satisfy these obligations.

• The government’s directive excludes loans that are owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. However, the two government-run mortgage corporations are expected to release their own guidelines. Homeowners can use the Loan Look Up Tool on the Making Home Affordable Web site to find out whether they have a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac loan.

• The lender cannot require a cash contribution or promissory note, cannot pursue a deficiency judgment and must release the homeowner from all future liability for the debt.

• The loan servicer can use the financial information and hardship letter that the homeowner submitted for a loan modification, or request updated information to

evaluate the homeowner’s eligibility.

• The loan servicer must assess the current value of the home. If the short sale or DIL isn’t completed, the servicer can add the cost of this assessment (e.g., an appraisal) to the loan balance.

• The homeowner must sign a Short Sale Agreement or DIL Agreement on or before Dec. 31, 2012.

• The home must be listed for sale with a licensed local-area real estate professional.

• The homeowner must cooperate with the real estate professional’s efforts to sell the home and maintain the interior and exterior of the home.

• The servicer and homeowner must meet a number of time frames.

• The lender may require the homeowner to make full or partial payments on the mortgage, up to 31 percent of the homeowner’s income, subject to the lender’s written policies.

• The homeowner cannot have a close business or personal relationship with the real estate agent or buyer and cannot have an ex-

pectation of buying back or renting the home after the short sale or DIL closes.

• The lender can initiate or continue, but not complete a foreclosure sale while the homeowner is involved in the program.

• Homeowners should discuss the income tax consequences of debt forgiveness with a qualified tax professional.

• The servicer will report the short sale or DIL to the credit bureaus. That will hurt the homeowner’s credit score, although not as severely as a foreclosure.

• The buyer in a short sale can’t resell the home within 90 days of the purchase.

The program was scheduled to launch April 5, 2010, and sunset Dec. 31, 2012. Servicers may elect to implement the program sooner than the official effective date.

Homeowners are encouraged to contact their loan servicers to find out whether they are eligible for the program or call the HOPE hot line at 888-995-4673 to speak to a government-certified mortgage counselor.

Garden Superstars New products blend charm, practicality From hardy hybrids to stylish, smart gardens, spring 2010 promises exciting new plants and products for garden lovers everywhere.

“People want easy plants and products that are attractive and good for the environment and perform well in their gardens,” says Susan McCoy, garden writer and trend spotter. “And that’s what the new plants and products this spring will deliver.”

McCoy reveals a few of her favorite garden superstars for spring that will chase away those winter blahs as you get ready to get your hands back in the earth and garden.

Get a Jump on Spring Looking to get a jump on spring planting? McCoy suggests FreezePruf – a revolutionary new spray from the Liquid Fence Company (www.liquidfence.com) – that may be the “holy grail” for gardeners. Developed by botanists, FreezePruf protects your lush flower baskets, veggies, herbs and favorite plants from late spring frost/freeze and ice crystal damage.

This non-toxic spray can increase a plant’s cold tolerance from 2.2 to 9.4 degrees (depending on the plant variety and the length of the frost/freeze event) and give gardeners about two additional weeks of growing and harvesting in spring and fall. It’s almost like moving your garden 200 miles further south.

Begin with a Bin Containing your compost pile in a bin saves space, hastens decomposition and helps keep the pile neat. You can find many pre-made compost bins. Or, you can build your own from materials around your home.

Catch Daylily Fever Daylily fever is contagious and you’re likely to catch the bug as you fall in love with the new fireengine-red daylily from Centerton Nursery. McCoy digs this new, hardy, early and repeat bloomer – Jersey Earlybird Cardinal – bred by world-renown daylily hybridizer, Dr. Darrel Apps. This easy-care daylily offers early-blooming great color and reblooms multiple times throughout the season. It’s pestand drought-resistant and is perfect in beds, borders and containers. Check it out at www.center tonnursery.com and earlybird daylily.com.

Smart and Simple Want to bring the outdoors in and grow fresh herbs (www.fertile earth.com) and vegetables in the kitchen or on the balcony? McCoy loves Simple Gardens, the innovative new plant system from Fertile Earth that comes with soil, seeds and a how-to guide packed in stylish square containers. Perfect for indoor gardens or to start seeds. They come in a variety of hip colors and make wonderful gifts. Now it’s a snap to grow kitchen gardens in any bright spot

– just add water.

Grow ’Em Right The new Organic Mechanics Planting Mix (www.organic mechanicsoil.com) is like having all the goodness of compost in a bag. At planting time, just mix in the nutrient-rich planting mix to revitalize your garden soil. It helps retain moisture and accelerates root-zone establishment for healthier trees, shrubs, fruits, veggies and flowers. Get it this spring in Mid-Atlantic garden centers and Whole Foods stores.

All That Jazz For every rose lover, McCoy has discovered a new spray and way to keep roses healthy and strong. Jaz Rose Spray (www.jazsprays.com) naturally reduces damage from disease and common environmental stresses. This new plant-strengthening spray with jasmonate – which occurs naturally in plants – provides increased resistance to disease, drought and temperature extremes. Recently endorsed by the American Rose Society, Jaz Rose Spray boosts your plant’s natural resistance to environmental stress and encourages vigorous roots, growth and blooms.

Build your own compost pile Recycling is certainly not a new concept. In fact, gardeners have been using one form of recycling – composting – for about as long as people have tilled the soil.

Composting is a cost-effective, eco-friendly way to give your garden a boost.

Composting happens by itself through natural decay and the breakdown of organic matter It’s easy to get started composting: find a bin, gather materials, build your pile and compost.

Next Big Thing for Small Gardens McCoy loves the newest Drift Roses from The Conard-Pyle Co., introducer of the famous Knock Out family of roses. A cross between full-size groundcover roses and miniatures, both Sweet Drift and Apricot Drift Roses offer delicate, double flowers and continuous blooming throughout the season. With exceptional disease resistance and winter hardiness, these low-maintenance beauties are the perfect choice for small gardens or along paths and walkways.

Gather Materials There are two main sources of materials for your compost pile – your yard and your kitchen. From the yard, you can gather leaves, grass and

plant clippings, and shrub or tree trimmings. From the kitchen, add fruit and vegetable peelings, coffee grounds (including the filters), tea bags and eggshells. It’s OK to toss in shredded newspaper.

Build your Pile You should build your pile in layers, starting with a 4- to 6inch layer of coarse material such as twigs or shrub clippings. Then, add on 3 to 4 inches of grass clippings. Next, add another 4- to 6-inch layer of leaves or garden debris and soak with water; moisture will help the microbes decompose the material faster. You can modify this order as needed, depending on the types of materials you have. After a few layers, be sure to add a 1inch layer of garden soil, such as Miracle-Gro Garden Soil for Flowers and Vegetables.

Keep safe at home

Mixing furniture styles

Article Resource Association

While people take all manner of precautions to ensure the safety and health of their families, some household products may need more attention and maintenance to keep loved ones and the home environment as safe as possible. A recent study shows that many Americans are unknowingly at risk of illness, injury or worse due to living with and using products that have not been properly maintained or replaced.

“Most of us have trained ourselves to pay attention to expiration dates on food,” says Meri-K Appy, president of the nonprofit Home Safety Council. “But, how many of us are thinking about the lifespan of the products we count on and live with every day? It’s easy to take for granted our smoke alarms and our pillows, or even our toothbrushes. But the truth is, if you neglect replacing these and other products, you could be putting yourself at risk.”

Following is a list of time-sensitive products that require regular replacement to maintain peak performance.

Smoke Alarms These potentially lifesaving devices have lives of their own and expire after about 10 years or 87,000 hours of service. Yet, a new study conducted by First Alert, a leading manufacturer of home safety products, recently uncovered that nearly a quarter of Americans (23 percent) have either never replaced the smoke alarms in their homes or have not done so in more than six years.

“It is imperative that smoke alarms be properly maintained to ensure their effectiveness,” warns Tom Russo, president of Jarden Branded Consumables, Safety and Security.

“Alarms should be tested every month and batteries replaced every six months for maximum security. If the alarms in your home are ap-

proaching the 10-year mark, or if you can’t recall when they were installed, be safe and replace them immediately.”

Carbon Monoxide Alarms According to the American Medical Association, carbon monoxide intake is the No. 1 cause of accidental poisoning in the U.S. Still, an alarming 25 percent of American homes are not equipped with any CO alarms and another 23 percent have CO alarms that have never been replaced, according to the recent First Alert study. The NFPA recommends installing CO alarms outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement. To ensure peak performance, replace batteries twice a year and check alarms monthly using the “test” function.

“Carbon monoxide is an especially dangerous threat because it attacks without warning and can be deadly,” Russo says. “The value of CO alarms is so critical that more and more states and municipalities are passing laws that require homes to have CO alarms to protect residents from this silent killer.”

Fire Extinguishers Like their alarm counterparts, fire extinguishers need to be regularly checked to ensure that the pressure is at the recommended level and all parts are operable and not damaged.

If an extinguisher is damaged in any way or needs to be recharged, it is best to replace the unit completely, advises the U.S. Fire Administration.

Disposable models, like Tundra Fire Extinguishing Spray, come with expiration dates that inform owners when the unit should be replaced.

Additionally, Tundra comes in a compact, familiar spray can design that is easy to operate and store.

Furnace Filters Not only do clean furnace filters help save on energy costs, but they also reduce the risk of fire. Just as full dryer screens can cause fires, so can dirty or clogged filters in the furnace. When replacing an old filter, note that many available products are disposable. But there are other products – such as electrostatic filters – that can be washed and reused time and again, generating even more savings if used and cared for properly.

Dressing a room can be a lot like dressing yourself.

You invest in the pieces you want to last many years and shop for steals on accessories that change with trends.

Victoria Dreste, a St. Louis-based interior designer, recently worked with a client to pull together highand low-end pieces to decorate a living room.

“We wanted to create an updated, comfortable modern look, and we didn’t have an outrageous budget,” Dreste says. To stay within her client’s budget, she shopped for a few vintage pieces and had them re-covered in fabric to complete the look.

The color palette dictated choices in furnishings. “We wanted strong color, without overwhelming the room,” she says. They started with a light ivory color on the walls and chose a natural tone for window coverings.

She started adding color from the floor up.

“I used a modern pattern and bold colors on the rug and repeated those colors in other elements,” Dreste says.

The basic anchor pieces, the sofa and rug, were the big ticket items.

They chose higher quality in the pieces they wanted to last.

“They were completely customizable, which is also why they cost more,” Dreste explains.

Buying strong vintage pieces means looking for good structure, form and condition. The right items allow you to mix less expensive pieces without looking cheap. Even when buying mass-produced accessories, keep an eye out for quality. The Target leather bowl Dreste purchased, for example, looks a lot more expensive than it really is. The Pier 1 pillows add a lot of punch and are easily changed.
