Do-it-yourself home improvement projectscontinue to be popular. After all, it can savemoney and be satisfying. But not all projectsshould be DIY. There are a number of thingsto consider before picking up a tool belt.
Home improvement experts recommendyou ask yourself these questions:
• Do I really have the skills and knowledgeto take on this project? You may be able to in-stall a light fixture, but that doesn’t mean youcan put up drywall if you’ve never done it be-fore.
• Can I do a quality job? Some projects re-quire more skill and experience than others.Make sure you feel confident in your ability todo a job you can be proud of. Poor qualitywork not only detracts from the look of ahome, it can actually hurt the value.
• Do I have the time to do this? Expertsrecommend that DIYers double the amountof time a project is supposed to take. Do youhave that kind of time to invest?
• Will I actually finish the project? Manyhomeowners start a project with great enthu-siasm. But as time goes on and problemsarise, the project gets overwhelming and of-ten gets left unfinished.
• Can I do this by myself? If your projectcalls for more than one person, do you have aready assistant who has the time and the skillsto help?
• If the project requires permits, can I getthem on my own? Some projects, or parts ofprojects, may require building permits. Callyour local building authority to find out exact-ly what permits are required and how to getthem. They can also tell you which aspects ofthe project require a licensed professional.
• Do I have the right tools? If not, can youborrow or rent them at a reasonable rate.Trying to make-do with the wrong tools willhurt the quality of your project, and couldhurt you.
• What’s the real cost of doing it myself? It’sabout more than just the supplies on a projectlist. Take into consideration things like gloves,safety goggles, tools you don’t own and yourtime. You may also want to figure in the dam-age factor – what it costs to do things over orrepair damage done in the process. Will it re-ally save you money?
• Is it safe for me to do this? Lack of knowl-edge, experience and the right safety equip-ment can raise the risk of injury. If your homeis older, it might contain hazardous materialslike asbestos or lead-based paint. You shouldalways have a professional do that kind of re-moval work.

fall interior
design ideas
Fall’s Colorful BountyArticle Resource Association
When you think of the colors asso-ciated with fall, green doesn’t neces-sarily come to mind. Environmentallyspeaking, however, it should. There’sno better time than now to lessenyour home’s impact on the environ-ment and change the way you deco-rate and live. So, why not go greenthis fall? It’s not nearly as difficult tobecome earth-friendly as you mightthink.
“From products that contribute togood indoor air quality to ones thattruly reflect the reduce, reuse, recyclemantra, the number of affordablegreen interior decorating products hasliterally exploded within the past fiveyears,” says Donna Schroeder, DutchBoy color marketing and design man-a g e r.
These days, you can find stylish,eco-friendly design elements for everyroom in the house. And, contrary topopular belief, going green doesn’tmean you have to sacrifice style forsustainability. The two can coexist
quite effortlessly.You can start simple by dressing
your bed in luxurious sheets, throwsand comforters made from fabricssuch as rich, renewable bamboo orsoft, organic cotton. Cover your floorswith formaldehyde-free carpets con-structed of recycled fibers or select anatural material, like stone, slate oreven concrete. Then, hang energy-effi-cient window treatments with highinsulation and shading properties.
Don’t stop there. Spice up your tiredsofa with a design-forward slipcoverand throw pillows crafted from 100percent recycled materials. Add brightrecycled glass plates and servingpieces to your china cabinet. Buy fur-niture made from sustainably harvest-ed wood or, better yet, visit local sec-ondhand shops and repurpose. Or,look around your own home and seewhat you already have that can beadapted for a new use. You’d be sur-prised what a little creativity and somegood old-fashioned elbow grease cando.
If you’re looking to add bold, funcolor, paint fits perfectly into thisoverall green scheme. It’s an inexpen-sive, effective and, most importantly,environmentally-minded way tochange the look and feel of an entireroom. Many paint manufacturers nowoffer coatings that contain few, if any,volatile organic compounds (VOCs),or vapors that are released from paintas it dries.
Using paints formulated withoutVOCs, such as Dutch Boy’s new Re-fresh interior paint with exclusiveodor-eliminating Arm & Hammertechnology, takes your home one stepcloser to reducing your environmentalimpact while leaving your interiorlooking fresh, modern and filled withp e r s o n a l i t y.
Keep in mind that greening yourhome, inside or out, doesn’t happen ina matter of minutes or even overnight.It’s an ongoing process. The limit tohow green your home can be is up tohow willing you are to adjust yourlifestyle. The choice is yours.

The frigid winter months cantake a toll on your home. Heatingbills go up, pipes may freeze andmore time spent indoors canmean higher energy usage. Lucki-ly, upgrades and simple do-it-yourself projects can reduce win-ter energy costs and get yourhome ready for whatever the coldmay bring.
Before rushing to the nearesthome or appliance store, home-owners should start by getting ahome energy audit or analysis –this can be a do-it-yourself pro-ject or through a professional au-ditor. These tools help to deter-mine the energy performance ofthe home, recommend ways toincrease energy efficiency and es-timate the potential savings withenergy efficient upgrades.
James Evig, sales manager atBudget Home Center in Long-mont, recommends some quickand easy things you can do.“These are all things that anyhomeowner should be able todo,” Evig says.
First, weather strip doors tokeep the cool air out and the hotair in can reduce heating costs.Re-caulking doors and windowsor using plastic coverings can al-so help to seal any cracks fromwear and tear throughout the
year. According to the U.S. De-partment of Energy, reducingdrafts can mean 5 to 30 percentin potential energy savings a year.
Also, remember to replace yourfurnace filter. “You should re-place your furnace filter at leasttwice a year,” Evig says. Whenfurnace filters become dirty theyreduce the energy efficiency ofthe home’s heating and air condi-tioning system.
To help reduce heating bills,Evig suggests insulation. “Addinginsulation to the attic is probablythe easiest to do.” Insulation isalso one of the most cost effectiveways to improve home energy ef-f i c i e n c y.
A pre-winter home checklistcould also include replacingsome of those old appliances. In atypical home, appliances andhome electronics account forabout 20 percent of the bills.
Chris Ramirez, who works insales at Lynn Cunningham Appli-ance in Longmont, says EnergyStar appliances are the way to goto reduce energy costs. EnergyStar refrigerators, clothes washersand dishwashers help the envi-ronment and the bills. The Cityof Longmont Power and Commu-nications and United Power offerrebates for Energy Star appliancesand a new cash for clunkers styleprogram on appliances will begin
late this fall. And don’t forget, us-ing Energy Star qualified compactfluorescent light bulbs save onenergy costs and last 10 timeslonger than incandescent bulbs.
For some extra energy andtime savings, homeowners can al-so clean their dryer vents to getrid of lint buildup which increas-es dry time and presents a poten-tial fire hazard. “Some customershave told us it cuts the dry timeby almost half, even with a loadof towels,” Ramirez says. Clothes
dryers are usually the second-largest electricity consumer afterrefrigerators and reducing theirannual operating costs could saveenergy and money during thewinter months.
As energy prices continue torise, being smart and efficientabout energy usage pays in moreways than one. Winter may nothave officially started yet, but it’snever too early to get energy-effi-cient ready for the chilly monthsahead.

Chandeliers add drama Staging yourhome for sale
Staging is the buzzword these days. Whenselling a home, it is suggested the home bestaged for a better or quicker sale. The ideabehind staging is to make the home look un-cluttered and as professionally decorated aspossible so it appears fresh and inviting topotential buyers. If the home is vacant, aprofessional stager will put furniture and ac-cessories in to make the home more inviting.If the home is occupied, a stager can comeclean up, straighten, add accessories and re-arrange furniture to make the rooms openand appealing.
Having a home professionally staged cancost a lot of money, but there are ways youcan do it yourself. Let’s explore the possibili-ties. Start by “window shopping” modelhomes. Visit homes professionally decoratedthat are up for sale to see how the profes-sionals do it. Check out the bathrooms andsee how clean and inviting they are. Look atthe kitchen to see what is being displayed,such as plants and homey cookbooks; andwhat generally isn’t displayed, such as smallappliances and cutting boards.
Notice how most model homes are neu-trally colored and decorated. Neutral tonessuch as beige and tan are naturally appealingto the general public. If bold colors appeal tosome people, pastels might appeal more toothers. The bold aficionados will be turnedoff by the pastel colors and visa versa –hence, the neutral theme.
When de-cluttering, be sure to removesome personal items such as extra familyphotos. An overabundance of photos on flatsurfaces, shelves and walls can be over thetop with buyers. Grooming supplies in thebathrooms also must go. Instead, display un-used scented or fancy soaps, towels tiedwith ribbon, perhaps two or three candleson the edge of the tub.
Place a variety of greens/plants in a fewrooms; natural ones are best. If there areflowers growing in your yard, cut and displaysome in the house.
The outside of your home is obviously thefirst thing people see. Check to be sure thehouse paint is in good condition. Also, thefront door is essential when it comes to pre-senting a welcome facade, so be sure it iswell painted and in good condition. Perhapsplace a pot of yellow flowers by the door.Lastly, clean and well-manicured landscapingis essential.
Be sure the house, both inside and out, isclean. Hire a professional cleaning companyif necessary. The windows should besparkling, the baseboards should be free ofdust, and the shelves meticulously cleaned. Ifnecessary, hire a cleaner to spiff up yourhouse weekly to be sure that every openhouse is well received.
These ideas might cost you a bit, but awell-staged home has been proven to sellquicker and get a better selling price than ahome that is left in an unprofessional clutter.

Chandeliers aren’t just for grandballrooms or even formal diningrooms anymore. They come in somany styles and sizes that they canadd a touch of drama to any room inthe house.
Size matters when selecting a chan-delier, according to Mary Beth Gotti,a lighting expert with GE Consumer& Industrial. She points out there is asimple way to make sure the fixture isnot too large or too small for yourroom. Just measure the length andwidth of the room, in feet. Add thetwo numbers together and the sumshould equal the diameter of thechandelier, in inches.
In the dining room, however, achandelier should be scaled to thesize of the table, not the room. Itshould be no greater than the widthof the table minus 12 to 20 inches, toprevent anyone from bumping into it.How high off the table should a chan-delier be hung? “Typically, you’ll findthem 30 to 36 inches above the top ofthe table, depending on the ceilingheight,” Gotti says.
Gotti suggests that lighting from achandelier that beams directly downon your guests from above can castunflattering shadows. The heat frombulbs directly overhead should alsobe considered. She offered these tips:
• Avoid high wattage bulbs as theywill increase the heat and can in-crease the potential for glare.
• Consider decorative compact flu-orescent decorative lamps to reducewatts and extend lamp life.
• Try adding shades to chandeliercandelabra bulbs or a wall dimmer tohelp control the light and set a com-fortable mood.
• For extra sparkle, consider in-stalling small recessed downlights oneither side of the chandelier.
The right light in the right fixturewill create the look you really want.
Use decorative bulbs in chandeliers,sconces, bathroom fixtures – any-where the bulb is visible. With deco-rative bulbs, the bulb is just as daz-zling as the light it creates. Superiorhalogen technology allows GE bulbsto deliver the highest quality of lightthat’s long-lasting and energy-effi-cient.
Clear bulbs can provide glitter, butcan also be sources of glare if ex-posed. Dimming can reduce glare andprovide lighting flexibility or“scenes” for various events. Coatedbulbs or coated compact fluorescentbulbs provide more diffused light, re-
ducing harsh shadows.Now that you have the measure-
ment details and proper bulb selec-tion mastered, the biggest challengewill be selecting among the dazzlingfixtures available.
Whether it’s a Mission-style fixturehanging in the den surrounded byquarter-sawn oak bookcases, achrome fixture with geometric glasselements hanging in a modern masterbedroom, or simply a junk-store findadding a splash of whimsy to a shab-by chic apartment – chandeliers canbe the crowning star of a room’sd é c o r.
Control formaldehyde and other volatile organiccompounds (VOCs) are chemicals that evaporate at roomtemperature, giving off irritating fumes that cause asthmaflare-ups. “Everything from the furniture you buy tocleaning solvents to paint may have formaldehyde andother kinds of VOCs with these off-gassing properties,”says Mike Tringale, director of external affairs at the Asth-ma and Allergy Foundation of America. “Particle board orpressed wood is often finished or treated with some kind
of formaldehyde preservative.”
These fumes dissipate throughout time, so don’t hesi-tate to ask furniture, carpet or flooring dealers to allow aproduct to off-gas for a couple of weeks or so before deliv-ery. Consider storing it in your garage before bringing itinto the house, and provide good ventilation in yourhome at all times.

Foreclosure. It seems like halfthe country is in it and the otherhalf is trying to make a killing onit.
The number of foreclosedhomes staggers the imaginationand with more adjustable-rateloans about to reset, the end isnowhere in sight. The crisis,however, provides the opportu-nity to purchase a house that wasall but impossible for many to af-ford in the boom years.
But there are many pitfalls anda hasty buyer can end up in aq u a g m i re .
With investors flocking to cap-italize on discounted properties,good deals usually go fast. It’sunrealistic to think you’re goingto get a pristine property in aprime location for 50 percent lessthan area comparables. But 20percent under the neighborhoodmarket is possible. If you’re a po-tential foreclosure buyer, the ob-vious place to start is price andcondition. But there’s far more toit. Consider these tips to get yourbest deal.
“This can happen twodifferent ways,” says SeanO’Toole, founder and CEO ofF o re c l o s u re R a d a r. c o m .
“The underpriced propertiesget a ton of activity and goquickly, but you can really get abetter deal on an overpricedp ro p e rt y, ” he says.
An overpriced property willgenerally get little interest andmay sit on the market for a yearor more. Therefore, when some-one actually makes an offer, thebank may act on it quickly.
“For the home buyer who’s upfor the challenge, it can meangetting a property at less thanmarket value,” says Aaron Lewis,broker/owner of The Lewis Teamat Prudential California Realty inTurlock, Calif.
He offers this example: “If thehome is listed at $170,000 andneeds $10,000 worth of repairs,take a look at comparable prop-erties in the area. If the housewould be worth $200,000 withthe repairs done, then you’re get-ting a $200,000 property for$180,000 and that’s a great deal.”
To move properties more
quickly, says F.F. “Chappy”Adams, president of IllustratedProperties, in Palm Beach Gar-dens, Fla., “lenders are oftenmaking significant repairs, re-placing major items or offeringrepair assistance.” That alonemay make the home, once re-paired, a good investment downthe road.
“A good neighborhood sup-ports your home value overtime,” Lewis says.
How do you determine that?
In addition to scouring theneighborhoods for well-keptyards, easy access to shoppingand short work commute times,look at school scores, says Lewis.“A good school district will usu-ally help housing hold its valueover the years.”
Check out the number of fore-closures in the neighborhood aswell. “If there are a lot of homesin one neighborhood that are inforeclosure, be wary,” says JimMazziotti, broker/owner of EXITRealty Bend in Bend, Ore. “Va l -ues may still be declining there.”
Adams, whose company has adepartment that handles onlybank-owned properties, says“Some lenders are favoring cashtransactions over finance pur-chases and taking deeper dis-counts to sell the property.”
If cash is not an option foryou, it’s important to get pre-qualified for a loan so you can
“If you can purchasehomes needing rehabwork at significantlylower prices (than thosehomes that don’t needwork), complete thework yourself and buildinstant equity, thenyou’re ahead of thegame.”
– F.F. “Chappy” Adams,president of Illustrated
Properties, in Palm BeachGardens, Fla.
react quickly once you find ahome.
You can look for the best inter-est rate by searching Bankrate’smortgage rate tables, then con-tact the lender to get pre-ap-p ro v e d .
Particularly for a cash buyer,this strategy makes a lot of sense.
“Make your offer at the end ofa month, quarter or year,” saysO’Toole. “Many times, banks willwant to get deals closed and offthe books.
So, consider making a Novem-ber or December offer and high-light the fact that you can closeby Dec. 31,” he says. You can geta lower price simply because itworks for the bank’s timing.
Many times listing agents –who often get 20 or more proper-ties from the bank to list at onetime – simply don’t have the timeor manpower to include everydetail about every house in theironline marketing.
“An REO (real estate-owned)broker may run out to the house,take a look around the inside andsnap a few photos of the outside,but they may not mention in theonline listing that the home has abeautiful backyard and upgradedlandscaping,” O’Toole says. Itpays to do more than simplycheck out the property online. Ifthe property meets your criteriafor size, number of bedroomsand neighborhood, go see it inperson. And, says Adams, “Al-ways have a licensed home in-spector check out the home.”
With REO properties, go di-rectly to the listing agent, whohas the relationship with thebank asset manager, who ap-proves or denies the sale. Or, finda real estate professional whoworks extensively in the foreclo-sure arena who will have moreexperience in bank-owned prop-erties. The bottom line: When itcomes to buying a foreclosure,home buyers need to throw emo-tion out the window and thinklike an investor.
“If you can purchase homesneeding rehab work at signifi-cantly lower prices (than thosehomes that don’t need work),complete the work yourself andbuild instant equity, then you’reahead of the game,” Adams says.

Punch bowl set worth plentyBy Helaine Fendelman
and Joe Rosson
Scripps Howard News
Service
Dear Helaine and Joe:Enclosed are pictures of a14-piece punch bowl set. Itis in perfect condition. Iknow it has been in myfamily since at least 1923and perhaps before that. Iplan to pass it on to mydaughter and would likefor her to know the insur-ance replacement value.Can you help me? Sincere-ly, G. H., Durham
Dear G. H.: We receive alot of questions about Nip-pon porcelain each year, butmost of the items are ratherordinary, and in a decliningmarket for this type of ware,not very valuable. However,the set in today’s question isquite beautiful and rather ex-traordinar y.
This set – and it is amazingthat the entire set still existsin excellent condition – ismarked with the letter “M”in a wreath with the words“Hand Painted” above and“Nippon” underneath.
The story of Nippon porce-lain starts in the U.S.Congress when the McKinleyTariff Act was passed in1890. It required that allitems exported to the UnitedStates be marked with thecountry of origin.
The law went into effect in1891 and at that time goodsmade in England weremarked England, those made
in France were markedFrance, those made in Ger-many were marked Germanyand so on. The Japanesechose to mark their exportitems with the name of theircountry – Nippon, and from1891 to 1921 their porcelainwares were so marked. Afterthat it became Japan or Madein Japan.
The company we now callNoritake can trace its originsback to a trading companynamed Morimura-Kumi,founded in Tokyo in 1876.But it was not until 1904 thatthe Nippon Toki Kaisha Ltdfirm was registered in Nori-take, Japan.
The 14 pieces mentionedin the letter are the two han-dled punch bowl, the base onwhich the punch bowl rests,and 12 cups without handlesthat are shaped somethinglike saucer champagne glass-es. Looking at the photo-graph, we do not see anywear whatsoever to the gold(which is remarkable) andthe painted areas seem toshow no signs of abrasion.
There may have been a la-dle at one time, but we doubtit. It is rare to find a NipponNoritake punch bowl setcompletely intact, and wefeel that the insurance re-placement value is between$1,500 and $2,000.

Ta c k l eallergens
in thehome
Article Resource Association
If sneezing, sniffling and coughing are fre-quent sounds in your house, don’t worry, you’renot alone in trying to find ways to stop them.
An estimated 50 million people suffer from in-door and outdoor allergies in the United States,costing Americans nearly seven billion dollarsannually, according to the Asthma and AllergyFoundation of America.
Asthma and allergy triggers – called allergens– accumulate in unexpected places throughoutyour home. Furniture, bedding, curtains, drapesand carpeting can each house dust mites, petdander and outside allergens entering throughthe windows.
Here are some tips from appliance manufac-turer LG Electronics to reduce the number of al-l e rg e n s .
• Use washable floor mats, and run themthrough the laundry once a week to removesmall food particles.
• Don’t let damp towels pile up as mold andmites can spread quickly.
• Pet beds hold a lot of dander. Give them
their own sleeping area somewhere in the housethat isn’t a bedroom.
• Make sure your wash cycle removes aller-gens.
• Replace your mattresses every 10 years, andvacuum them regularly.
• Use washable slipcovers on couches if youhave pets to help control pet dander.
• Consider purchasing more products, includ-ing kids’ toys and table linens, that are machinewashable.
• Draperies can also harbor allergens. Use ver-tical blinds or other easy-to-clean window treat-ments instead.
“While removing allergens like dust mites andpet dander in your house won’t cure your aller-gies, it certainly will help you protect your fami-ly by reducing their exposure to these asthmaand allergy triggers,” says Mike Tringale, directorof external affairs for AAFA. “By designing a spe-cial wash cycle that meets our standards, LG hascreated a tool that can help Americans in theirefforts to reduce their exposure to allergensthroughout the home.”
Trends that will make your kitchen cookDo you feel drab when dishing
up dinner? Bored during break-fast? Here are some hot trends tospice up your kitchen.
• Freestyle. Because we’respending more time in ourkitchens, there is a move awayfrom the all-or-nothing “fitted”look of continuous counters.Look for more freestandingpieces of furniture or featureswith furniture-like qualities,such as a cabriole leg holding up
a kitchen counter.
• Artistic upgrades. In the on-going effort to customizekitchens, almost anything goes.Now range hoods are works ofart, literally. Already beautiful aswell as functional, hoods cannow be customized with panelsyou choose.
• Going green. Eco-friendlyproducts aren’t going to go out ofstyle anytime soon. And nowthere are more ways that you can
go green in the kitchen, too,from energy-efficient dishwash-ers to environmentally soundflooring options.
• Asian fusion. With interna-tional style so popular at home,it’s no wonder that the Asian in-fluence is still going strong.
• refrigerator drawers and dish-washer drawers, and say hello tothe microwave drawer.

It looks like the $8,000 betmany existing homeowners madeis going to pay off. Senate negotia-tors announced during the lastweek of October that they hadcome to an agreement on extend-ing and slightly expanding the ex-tremely popular $8,000 first timehome buyer tax credit. The exist-ing $8,000 credit will be extendeduntil June 30, 2010, for contractsthat are finalized by April 30.Homeowners who lived in theirhomes for five consecutive yearsthroughout the past eight years,will get a tax credit of up to $6,500as long as they finalize their homepurchase contract by April 30 andclose by June 30.
Members of the Armed Forceswho are on active duty for at least90 days in 2008 or 2009 have untilApril 30, 2011 to claim the taxcredit as either first-time buyers ortrade-up buyers.

buyer because her parents alreadyowned a home), and a HUD-1 set-tlement statement must be at-tached to the tax filing. Finally, theIRS will have greater oversightduring the processing of forms,rather than waiting to audit them.
The income limits for the taxcredit have been raised to$125,000 for individuals and up to$225,000 for married couples.
The $8,000 first time home buy-er tax credit was due to expire onNov. 30, 2009. Originally, theWhite House said it would be infavor of simply extending the taxcredit for first-time buyers throughthe winter selling season, which istypically slower than the rest ofthe year.
But the latest new home salesfigures from the Commerce De-partment caught everyone by sur-prise: New home sales for Septem-ber dropped a surprising 3.5 per-cent, to an annualized 402,000sales for 2009.
Economists were expecting newhome sales to rise about 5 percent.
The new annualized sales figure isabout the lowest on record.
Up until the Commerce Depart-ment report, senators were arguingabout whether an extension or ex-pansion of the tax credit was need-ed. The cost, about $17 billion, isunpopular with some taxpayerswho believe the federal deficitshouldn’t be inflated any morethan it already is.
But the Realtor, mortgage bankerand home builder trade groupshave been pushing Congress andthe White House for months, argu-ing that without an extension andexpansion of the $8,000 tax credit,existing and new home sales weredestined to fall flat. The new homesales number seems to be the “mag -ic bullet” senators and lobbyistswere hoping to find. The deal,which had been in negotiation forweeks, came together quickly.
In a press conference, TreasurySecretary Tim Geithner and HUDSecretary Shaun Donovan saidthey “welcome efforts taken byCongress to extend the first time
home buyers tax credit for a limit-ed period. This credit has broughtnew families into the housing mar-ket and contributed to three con-secutive months of rising homeprices nationwide.”
Mindful that the IRS has testi-fied that as many as 100,000 tax-payers have fraudulently appliedfor the credit, Geithner and Dono-van urged Congress “to includestrict measures to combat taxfraud and protect responsiblehomeowners.”
While everyone is celebratingthe extension and expansion of the$8,000 tax credit, don’t forgetwhat it says about the U.S. housingmarket: It’s fragile and weak.

Squirrel control is achallenge for gardens
T h e re ’s a squirrel in my yard that’sseen too much of the Food Network,turning into a four-footed foodie withkleptomaniac urges. We discovered thisas odd things began happening, such asour tomatoes getting stolen. This isn’tso unusual; after all, squirrels love ap-ples as much as humans do.
Then my spouse called me out to theyard, and I knew we had a problem.There, deposited on a landscaping tim-ber at least 20 feet from the garden, wasa huge beefsteak tomato, partiallygnawed and discarded. “What kind of a
squirrel could liftthat, much lesscarry it this far?”my spouse whis-pered, alarmed.
“Just look at thesize of that toma-to, it has to weighat least twopounds,” he said,eyes scanning thefence line for aGodzilla-sizedsquirrel to appear,
“I wouldn’t want to meet that animal ona dark night.” Worry tickled my mindas, for the next month, we discoveredtomatoes strewn through the yard likeeggs at Easter.
Had the problem stopped there thingswould have been fine; there were plentyof tomatoes to share. But as the summerwore on the squash and melons fell vic-tim to the rodent’s desire. Apparentlythe animal couldn’t tell when the fruitswere ripe, so it nibbled on each and ev-ery one to see if it was ready – none es-caped this dental delving.
As the fruits grew they became battlescarred; skin closing over the earlywounds. We convinced ourselves thateating squirrel-chomped squash wasOK, if you didn’t look at the toothmarks on the rind.
The search for squirrel control turnedup suggestions for repellants, with ei-ther hot pepper or predator urine. Bothneed to be reapplied after every rain orirrigation, and hot pepper might causethe fuzzy thief pain; I didn’t want tohurt the critter or commit to such atime-intensive means for control. Wetried to wait it out, but things turnedu g l y.
The pumpkins were the hardest hit,possibly due to their growing in a differ-
ent spot of the yard where they weren’tdisturbed. Joy turned to horror whenharvesting the first to ripen – it hadbeen attacked from behind. Savaged be-yond repair, the gourd had been com-pletely hollowed out, as if the squirrelplanned to use it for a diorama.
Protection was needed and I opted forthe second type of squirrel control:cages of small mesh wire. These workedwell, the 1-inch mesh keeping thepumpkins whole. I grew complacent,believing the squirrel was thwarted. Butthe lull was just the rodent changinggears, popping up where I least expect-ed it: in the garlic.
Squirrels are known for their lovebulbs. To protect them, we lay chickenwire on the ground under the mulch sothe marauding mammals can’t dig themup. Squirrels and their ilk aren’t sup-posed to like garlic or any of the alliumclan; this is why they’re recommendedfor areas where rodents are a problem.
Chicken wire works in a bulb bed,but on a raised bed where other edibleplants need room meant getting newideas about management. I turned tothe experts whose suggestion was:“place crushed garlic in the area to repels q u i r re l s . ”
How helpful. We have a bushy-tailedRatatouille pulling up garlic like it’scooking an Italian meal, and the expertswant me to peel and crush the cloves forit. Instead, I’m back to chicken wire, buttemporarily. Stapled over the top of thebed walls, it will keep the thief from thegarlic over winter, and be easy to re-move in spring, when planting season –and round two of our struggle – contin-ues.

Lower energy costs with an insulated garage doorArticle Resource Association
A leaky, un-insulated garage doormay not be an obvious culprit in ris-ing monthly utility bills, but it’sworth a second look if you have anattached garage.
Replacing an older garage doorwith a new, energy-efficient modelcan reduce energy loss through thegarage door by up to 71 percent, ac-cording to a comparison study con-ducted by Clopay engineers.
“Since attached garages typicallyshare one or two common walls withthe house, any hot or cold that trav-els through a door will ultimately af-fect the adjacent living areas,” saysMark Westerfield, director of productdevelopment for garage door manu-facturer Clopay Building Products.“An insulated garage door can helpstabilize temperatures in the garageto reduce heat losses or gains fromcommon house walls.”
Depending on the specifics of yourhome and attached garage construc-tion, a well-insulated door can helpkeep your unheated garage 10 to 20
degrees warmer on a cold winter day.“That can have a significant impacton the comfort of family rooms orbedrooms located above or next tothe garage,” Westerfield says.
Homeowners who purchase an en-ergy-efficient garage door nowthrough Dec. 31, 2010, will not onlysave on their heating and coolingbills, they may qualify for up to$1,500 in federal tax credits, thanksto the new stimulus legislation. Cer-tain criteria apply.

Financially savvy custom kitchensArticle Resource Association
One of the greatest qualities of customcabinetry is that it is built to your exactspecifications – finish, door style and woodspecies, with no detail overlooked. Usingtime-honored construction techniques suchas mortise and tenon, each cabinet is hand-made, allowing you to maximize storagespace so every square inch of your kitchenis utilized properly and beautifully.
With custom cabinetry, the possibilitiesare truly endless – take, for example, thedifferent style options: traditional, transi-tional, contemporary, country, colorful,small and everything in between. Whenchoosing a custom cabinetry line, it is im-portant to work with a professional kitchenand bath designer who will be sure no detailis forgotten.
Kitchen cabinets are available in threeconfigurations – stock, semi-custom andcustom. Stock cabinetry is referred to as “o ffthe rack;” the cabinets are mass-producedand many components are pre-assembled.The advantages of stock cabinetry are thelow costs and low lead time requirements.The disadvantage of stock cabinetry is thelimited number of style and design offer-
ings, making it the least flexible option.
Semi-custom cabinets are manufacturer-built to fit your kitchen’s specifications.There are more options such as finishes anddoor styles compared to stock cabinetry;however, it is slightly more costly and thelead time is a bit longer. Custom cabinetryis “made to order” and is meant for you andyou alone. Custom cabinetry offers superiorquality and many finishes are applied byhand, ensuring consistency. Dovetaileddrawers and hardwood components that arescrewed and glued make for a sturdy, reli-able cabinet. Custom cabinetry can also ac-commodate unusual spaces and floor plans.
In comparison to stock and semi-custom,custom cabinetry is generally more expen-sive; however, often the price difference canbe negligible. “Some consumers are notaware that they can achieve their dreamkitchen, using custom cabinetry, for only 5to 10 percent more than semi-custom,” saysGeorge (Butch) Achey, president of Plain &Fancy Custom Cabinetry. “We recommendthat consumers work with an authorizedcustom cabinetry dealer in order to maxi-mize their budget and get fully-functionalcabinetry with exceptional design.”
