“P

eople should love where they live,” says Adam Kaufman, whose passion is real estate and who loves where he lives.

Unlike most young adults, Kaufman, 35, never moved into an apartment after graduating from college. “Straight out of school, I lived with my parents, went into business, and in eight months saved up enough money to buy my first house,” he recalls. “I like living in houses. And I’m in the real estate business, so I’d never rent.”

Kaufman’s first house was a tradi-

tional bachelor pad. “I had black leather furniture, and a pool table in the dining room,” he says. “I had fun.

I was 23. But when I decided to move, I had something else in mind.”

Kaufman wanted to build his home, tailored to his specific interests and wishes. He and a couple who are close friends of his were looking at lots in Orange Hill with the idea of building near each other.

Events took a serendipitous turn when a Beachwood property Kaufman had previously sold came on the market again. The buyer had razed the existing home but never

built on the land.

Kaufman proposed buying the land so he and his friends could build homes next to each other.

In retrospect, Kaufman thinks he probably should have had his head examined. “I was 28 when we broke ground on the house, and it took two years to build.” The design and planning soon turned into a major undertaking.

Originally, he pictured a house of around 3500 square feet. The architect’s plan for what he envisioned came in at 7100 square feet. “At that point, I said to myself, ‘I don’t need a 7100-sq.-ft. house.’ So we scaled back, and the house ended up at 6100 square feet.”

Kaufman sees houses 24/7, so he had a good idea of the floor plan he

ing to the second floor and double doors to the master suite. Floors throughout this area of the house are random-width white oak planks.

With its soaring ceilings and large rooms, the house could feel like a vacuous space. Kaufman avoided that pitfall by incorporating lots of dark woods in trim and cabinets. The effect is masculine but not oppressive. It’s a warm look that complements the country French furniture

and accessories.

Although Kaufman said he’s good at visualizing things, he did have help decorating the house. “My original designer was Paul Hamlin Interiors, and I finished the house up with Libby Palmieri. I wanted a warm, Mediterranean, country French feel.

It’s a timeless design. There’s nothing about the house that pinpoints it as being done in the late ‘90s or 2000.”

A focal point of the great room is a

free-standing, two-sided fireplace.

The other side faces the kitchen.

Country French style bergére chairs (double-wide seat armchairs) and lamps arranged around the hearth make this a perfect place to relax and read or watch the cooking action.

“That spot in the kitchen is one of my favorite places in the whole house,” Kaufman notes.

The kitchen has an abundance of dark wood cabinets for storage, gran-

A built-in, open shelf unit in one corner holds dozens of cow figurines, from the serious to the whimsical.

“My grandfather owned dairies

and an ice cream factory,” Kaufman explains. He had this cow collection for years, and I always thought it was cool. When my grandparents were moving from their house, he gave me part of his collection, and I’ve continued to add more cows.”

She’d been to an art show, met this artist, and had the chair made for me. She told me if I didn’t like it, I could put it in the basement. I loved it.”

At the opposite side of the house is the master suite. An unusual design aspect of this area is its entry foyer. “In a lot of homes, you walk directly into the bedroom. That’s a pet peeve of mine,” he explains. Entry to Kaufman’s master suite is through a large foyer. Double doors can completely close off the suite from the rest of the downstairs. But

even when those doors are open, you only see the foyer, not the bedroom, closets or bathroom.

Upstairs, an intriguing arched and curved hallway, copied from a Ritz hotel in California, leads to four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom.

Although he sees numerous gorgeous homes during his workday, Kaufman says he’s never been tempted to trade this house for another. “When I walk into this house, I’m home; it feels good,” he says. “Will I stay here forever? Nope. I’m being honest.

Eventually I might want something else.” But until that time, he’ll really love his house.

ou might remember it as the den, the study or the library.

It’s that room where dad would read the newspaper and unwind after a hard day at the office.

Technology and the dynamics of today’s economy have changed the employment landscape, and as a result, more and more people are working at home. Along the way, the classic concept of “Dad’s Den” has given way to the home office.

While the label may have changed, Solon interior designer Libby Palmieri explains that the home office is similar to Dad’s Den in at

50

CLEVELAND JEWISH NEWS JSTYLE SPRING 2006

least one way: For many, the home office is their sanctum sanctorum.

“Nowadays, floor plans are very open in homes. As a result, there’s a lack of intimacy,” Palmieri says.

“When you go into that home office, you’re creating this personal space.

You can close the door; you can do something functional. It’s cozy and intimate.”

What you need to know When transforming a room into a home office, the first question you must answer is: How are you going to use the office?

“If you’re going to be using it every day, you want to think differently than someone who’s just going to pay bills once a month,” explains Trudie Wilkins, owner of houseworks in Bedford Heights.

“I’m a firm believer in form follows function, particularly with offices,” says Beachwood interior designer Leonard Gilbert.

Another consideration to keep in mind during the planning stage is who is going to be using the space.

“Often, in a family, there’s more than one person using the office,” Gilbert notes: the husband, the wife and the entire family.

Determine your budget Budget is going to be a big factor in the design of your home office.

“As with anything else, there’s a huge range,” Palmieri notes. “You could go somewhere like Office Max – where you’re buying commercialgrade furniture – or to a higher-end retail store. Or you could go completely custom.”

3/9/06

3:32 PM

All three designers point out that there are options for the budget-conscious.

For instance, if paneling – which could run in the tens of thousands of dollars, depending on the type of wood – isn’t in your budget, says Palmieri, a trim carpenter could add shoe molding or wainscoting to the walls to give your home office some visual interest .

“That’s a relatively inexpensive thing to do, especially if you use a wood like poplar,” she says. “It doesn’t have a gorgeous ring on it, but it can be relatively low-cost, and it can be painted or stained to mimic more expensive wood.”

One approach for the budget-conscious is to build your home office piecemeal, adding items over time as you can afford them, Wilkins explains. But she also cautions that you still need to do all the necessary measuring and planning; otherwise, your home office will look like a “hodgepodge.”

While Wilkins generally cautions

Page 3

against skimping too much, she does have one piece of advice for those who must watch their dollars.

“If you buy something that’s standard at a low price, the quality always is going to be low quality,” she says. “If you buy a clearance item of a better product, you get better quality at a lesser A place for everything and everything in its place is the hallmark of this light, bright, enviable home office setup. price.”

ergonomically correct, perhaps the most important – and easiest – thing you can do is purchase an adjustable chair with adequate back support.

Since the standard height for most desks is about 29 inches, an adjustable chair allows users to change their relationship to the desk and computer so they’re working at a comfortable angle.

“One chair I recommend for my clients kind of shapes to your body,” Palmieri points out. “You can adjust everything on it, from the arms to the back to the height. A 5-foot-tall woman or a 6-foot-5 man can sit in it, and each can still be comfortable.” ❑

c ideas is home texture epair measure just wind hoosing the right colors when painting a room for the first time can be a daunting task. But, just like learning how to cook a great meal, creating the perfect room can be achieved with the right ingredients and a good recipe.

“Spicing up the home with color is a great way to brighten the indoors, but the actual color selection often can be quite overwhelming,” said Barbara Richardson, director of color marketing for ICI Paints and a licensed interior designer. “Follow these simple, sensible tips, and you’ll create a colorful new home and have fun in the process.”

Consult a color “cookbook” You wouldn’t attempt to whip up a gourmet meal without consulting a cookbook or an experienced chef. Similarly, take advantage of the design assistance available to you. For computer-savvy do-it-yourselfers, free design advice is available with the simple click of a computer mouse.

Color chips of shades can be ordered online and sent free of charge. Since it’s preferable to make paint

selections surrounded by the furniture, lighting and accessories of a room, reviewing color chips in the comfort of your home provides the extra confidence needed to proceed with a paint project.

Don’t leave out essentials For the best topcoat results, most projects will require a coat of primer first. A primer called Gripper Grey, for example, was specifically developed for use under dark or vibrant paints.

These primers use shades of grey to create a better foundation that enhances the true richness of popular topcoat colors while saving time and money.

“Most do-it-yourselfers don’t think twice about applying deep colors, such as dark reds, greens or blues, over a white primer,” said Richardson. “Only after the paint has dried, do they realize that the primer affects the intensity of the topcoat. As a result, more time and money are spent on applying additional layers to achieve the desired color.”

By following a recipe for painting success, do-it-yourselfers can create a room that will be savored for years to come. ❑ Courtesy of NAPS Content

Wall coverings on the cutting edge

BY ARLENE FINE hen Sarah and Ron Greenbloo m moved into their 60-year- old vintage bungalow in Cleveland Heights, one of the first things they did was strip off four layers of well-worn dining room wallpaper.

“As we revealed each wallpaper layer, the personality of the former owners and the decorating trends of the times appeared,” notes Sarah. “The paper design ranged from cabbage roses to plumed peacocks and told us a lot about who sat under our dining room chandelier over the years.”

Using wallpaper to reflect personal tastes, set a mood, update a tired room, or hide wall imperfections are the reasons people choose this enduring decorating option.

Pepper Pike decorator Laura Friedman almost waxes poetic

when she describes the beauty found in today’s wide array of wallpapers.

She is especially fond of subtly textured papers whose nuances and beauty are particularly effective in the kitchen, powder rooms and foyer.

“These rooms often need the kind of punch provided by decorative wallcovering,” she notes. “Many powder rooms often do not have windows or architectural interest, so wallcovering can give them an extra spark.

Even a small amount of washable wallpaper can do wonders in highfunctioning kitchens that are broken up with appliances and cabinetry.”

Appropriate paper in the foyer, she adds, “makes a strong, welcoming statement and sets a home’s decorating signature.”

Textured wallpaper that resembles granite, stone, natural fibers, leather, suede or exotic wood patterns either in earth tones or rich hues ranks high on Friedman’s preferred list.

“Today’s wallpaper incorporates an earthy, naturally soothing feel to the

home,” she notes. “Unlike flat paint, wallcovering reflects the light in the room and gives it an added dimension.”

Do-it-yourselfers will delight in the revolutionary wallpaper available at Sherwin-Williams. Called Easy-Change, it allows the homeowner to easily strip the prepasted vinyl wallcovering off the wall and if desired, reapply it in another room at any time, even years after it was initially hung.

“This paper peels off without chemical strippers and comes in a variety of patterns like faux finishes, geometric shapes and traditional designs,” says Tony Post, marketing manager for Sherwin-Williams. EasyChange ranges from $17 to $40 per roll.

Beachwood interior designer Jane Frankel says the days of “ditzy” little wallpaper designs or cutesy country images are long gone. “We are seeing bigger, contemporary designs, whimsical patterns, bright colors, and a

whole range of handpainted papers,” she explains. “Wallpaper provides a softer, warmer, more luxurious look than a painted wall.”

Frankel offers some points to consider when selecting wallpaper. “It should complement your furniture, the room size, the amount of light in the room and your personal taste,” she says. When purchasing wallpaper, Frankel advises checking if it is an American or a European roll. “European rolls have more yardage, but are narrower than American rolls by as much as 7 inches,” she notes. “Wallpaper is hard to return, and if you have to buy more, you must get it from the same dye lot; otherwise the color and pattern may vary.”

Wallpaper is the touch that pulls a room together and gives it personality. It offers something for everybody from traditional to contemporary to retro to classic. Decorators agree it is far from being the ultimate “hang-up” and is a great design tool. ❑ Planning on covering your walls?

Hardwood floors, like those throughout the homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main rooms, are stained walnut. An elegant Murano glass chandelier lights the room.

Skirted, high-backed chairs surround the huge mahogany dining table. Practical as well as pretty, these chairs are upholstered in a persimmon and caramel tweed fabric with seats of caramel-colored faux leather that can be wiped clean. The couple frequently invites other families to join them for Shabbat and holiday dinners.

The roomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s large front window is dressed with persimmon silk tie-back drapes over butterscotch sheers. Custom-made dark wood cabinets with ribbed doors are accented with a caramel-colored onyx serving

counter. The wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collection of silver Judaica is displayed on lighted glass shelves above. An impressionistic oil painting in cool blues runs nearly the whole length of the only unbroken wall.

Behind the dining room is the large, high-ceilinged living room. Two Palladian windows and a set of French doors provide ample light and access to the patio and backyard. The virtually monochromatic room is wallpapered in champagne silk and has an area rug with a subtle white-on-white vine pattern.

A black lacquered baby grand piano and black marble surrounding the traditional fireplace offset the pale décor.

and orange upholstered club chairs and a rectangular cocktail table arranged on a grass-green area rug. A pair of chairs with carved backs and green upholstered seats complete this relaxing setting. The arched window/French door combination along the rear wall bathes the space in natural light. Colorful abstract paintings hang in two brown-painted wall niches, and a large print of Don Quixote hangs near the bar.

An expansive, four-room master suite occupies the opposite side of the first floor. Facing the street is a clubby office with walnut paneling, creamy patterned carpeting, and a working fireplace. Matte silver paper mimicking a vintage tin ceiling adds texture and shine.

The room is furnished with a traditional mahogany desk and a leather lounge chair. The husband, an attorney, finds this a quiet place to work.

French doors lead to a sitting room and the adjoining master bedroom. This restful retreat has a raised oval in the ceiling, providing architectural drama. A contemporary four-poster bed is draped in gauzy vine-patterned fabric.

Flanking the bed are a mixed-wood chest and a painted and carved round pedestal table. Each holds a graceful mother-of-pearl lamp. Velvet benches in taupe and seafoam green echo the colors of the silk bedding.

Basement arts and crafts area is decorated in bright primary colors.

The children’s bedroom walls have clever faux painting – pink and green “fabric” on the girls’, top; an old “parchment map” on the boy’s.

look like they are covered in pink and green fabric trimmed with fuschia ribbon. The older daughter has a white iron canopy bed with toile bedding. A wrought iron dress form in the corner holds her numerous ribbons and awards.

The girls share a bath located between their bedrooms. This pink and white “spa” has double sinks and a (new) old-fashioned clawfooted tub.

At the end of the hall is a tworoom suite that’s all boy. The anteroom has a blue and white striped couch, a large desk for studying, and ample shelving for toys and books. Because their son is interested in travel and exploration, the couple decorated his bedroom around that theme. A feature wall is painted to look like an ancient map of the world, a large globe sits in the corner, and the window cor-

nices are done in a map-printed fabric. The remaining walls are ocean blue. The bronze tone of the carpet is echoed in the striped bedding.

There is no shortage of play space in this house. The finished basement has plenty of room for running around. A special arts and crafts area has a chalkboard wall, numerous shelves for storing materials, a sturdy worktable, and a big bulletin board on which to hang finished art. Painted in bright primary colors, the room has a spill-proof bright blue vinyl floor. The adults have a play area, too, complete with exercise equipment and a sauna.

A spacious layout, delicious color scheme, and sophisticated yet practical décor, supply all the ingredients for a welcoming family-friendly environment. ❑

Closet redesign no longer applies to just bedroom closets. Master closets adjoining bathrooms, walk-in pantries, and garage organization systems have become desirable options for many homeowners.

Juan Antunez, president of California Closets’ northern Ohio branch, sites another creative closet trend he’s seen recently.

“People receiving medical care in their homes have had closets designed to accommodate equipment like oxygen supplies and blood pressure monitors,” he says.

The advent of more hardware and accessories has also become a trend in closet design. Tie and belt racks that slide in and out, mini shoe bins, and valet rods where an outfit can be hung separately while getting

dressed are some newer features.

Don Cufari, president and owner of Closettec, has seen the scope of closet design broaden over the years.

Basic closet systems he has designed and installed range from approximately $500 for a 4-ft. wall closet to $35,000 for a deluxe closet featuring cherry veneers, stained crown molding, and granite tops on islands.

The next step up is a closet using more finish choices, like wood grains or colors and closing in some of the open shelves in favor of cabinets or drawers.

Inventory First Stop to Organization Cufari uses a step-by-step plan for closet redesign.

The first step is completing a wardrobe inventory to determine how many short hang, long hang and medium hang items need to be stored. He also counts the number of pairs of shoes and measures their width.

“This is a business of inches,” he explains, emphasizing that the end result is that everything will have its own place and that the closet will look like a store when it’s finished.

After the inventory, a scale design is drawn up so the client can see how everything will fit. Once a design is agreed upon, everything for the customized reorganization system is cut, manufactured and installed.

Once installed, clients may wonder how they’ll keep their closet looking neat. Cufari has a solution.

“It’s called enforced organization‚” he explains. “If you try to make a mess, you can’t because everything has its own place. It forces you to put things back where they belong.”

Do-it-yourselfers can save money by purchasing closet materials at big box stores like Lowe’s or Home Depot.

Another alternative is to hire an installation company to design a closet, then purchase the materials and install everything yourself.

Antunez of California Closets emphasizes that quality products and customer support are advantages to hiring a custom installation service.

“Compared with wardrobe components you would purchase, a custominstalled closet is more cost effective,” he says.

The cost factor should be considered with any home project. Abrams of Cabinet En-Counters encourages homeowners to ask themselves two questions: What is our budget, and how much are we willing to invest to best suit our needs? ❑ For closets to crow about, meet: • California Closets, 216-741-9000 • Closettec, 216-464-0042 • Renaissance Building, Inc., 440-567-3579

At the large white desk, a computer game with a realistic steering wheel and pedals lets Timna practice her future driving skills. Another spare steering wheel attached to her bed frame is just for fun.

Boursier-Smith of Design Prescriptions, Beachwood, has encouraged clients to change their dĂŠcor and to use objects in a way they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t initially invented for. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Decorating kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rooms starts with listening to what each child is into,â&#x20AC;? explains Boursier-Smith.

When Zoe wanted to transform her room into an early 1900s French garden, Debra began by painting the bottom half of the walls a deep, grassy green and the top half a neutral tone. She nailed thin garden wire fencing just above the chair rail along two walls and entwined artificial daisies, hiding wall defects with spackling compound.

Several flower boxes bursting with fake flowers, black and white photos of famous French scenes, a large â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parisâ&#x20AC;? lettering sculpture, and decorative shelves laden with knickknacks fill the wall space above.

Framed mirrors are placed high for light reflection from the ceiling fan light, while a black metal Eiffel Tower lamp dominates the nightstand. CafĂŠ curtains and mini-floral bedding complement the garden motif.

Baskets, boxes, and hooks keep treasured childhood collections contained and organized. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In decorating, there has to be a sense of order and a sense of the interesting,â&#x20AC;? says Boursier-Smith.

“Clean, contemporary looks are currently sought after in children’s bedrooms,” notes Leonard J. Gilbert, of Leonard J. Gilbert & Associates Inc. of Beachwood. “Kids have their own opinions about what their rooms should look like, but parents have the final say.” Depending on the child’s age, the room has to function and fill all of today’s needs, including space for a computer.

When youngsters’ bedrooms are decorated with creativity and flair, the time-honored parental admonition to “Go to your room” probably loses its original sting. ❑

Building a home wine collection

BY CLIFF CRAVENS

I 82

CLEVELAND JEWISH NEWS JSTYLE SPRING 2006

If you’re building a wine collection, there are some questions you need to consider: First, you need to determine what type of wine collection you would like to have. Do you want five to ten bottles in a wine rack to enjoy when unexpected guests drop by? Or do you want many bottles that you can age and enjoy later?

Whether or not you choose to have a number of everyday wines for drinking now or a range of wines for aging, you have some enjoyable research ahead. Most wines are made to be enjoyed within a year, but fuller-bodied wines may age and develop complex flavors.

These wines are usually more expensive.

Now it’s time for research. Wine tastings allow you to try several different wines and compare them. Such

comparisons can quickly guide you toward the styles of wine that you like, not what the experts say you should like.

Once you start to know your own palate, you can start your collection.

For example, you may want to store some dry, light whites. These wines are nice as a starter or with light hors d’oeuvres. Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand or Saint M Riesling from Germany are great, reasonably priced examples.

Everyday, easy drinking red wines could include Penfolds Shiraz from South Australia and Sterling Merlot from Napa Valley. All these wines are great for last-minute dinners at your neighbor’s or pouring yourself a glass during a casual evening at home.

The wines you will store for a few,

082-083_st03_craven-wine

3/7/06

5:35 PM

Page 3

or maybe 10, years are for special occasions. These wines improve with age. They start off dark and bold but mellow and get more complex with time. Pio Cesare Barolo and Antinori Tignanello, both from northern Italy, Ferrari-Carano Zinfandel and Stags’ Leap Winery Petite Syrah from Napa Valley, and Chateauneuf-du-Pape and Côte Rôtie from the south of France are excellent choices in this category.

Or try better Burgundies and Bordeaux from France, or Rioja from Spain. Some great Cabernet Sauvignons from Napa or Sonoma will be able to age for more than five years.

After you have decided on the type of collection you want, the next step is determining where you will store it. A wine rack is sufficient for a dozen bottles or so, but if you want a more extensive collection, you need to know that wines like dark, cool, and humid conditions. Also look for a spot that will have little or no vibrations.

An area of the basement is ideal, but a cool closet that you rarely use will also be suitable for wine storage.

Around 55 degrees is the ideal temperature for storage and aging with around 50-60% humidity.

The recommended temperature for drinking red wine is 60 to 68 degrees.

White wine, on the other hand, should be served slightly cooler at 45 to 50 degrees. Whether you’re drinking great French Bordeaux or Charles Shaw Merlot from Trader Joe’s, the correct temperature allows you to enjoy your wine more.

A great temperature tip is to place your bottle of red wine in the refrigerator for 20 minutes before you pour a glass. If you have stored it in your basement, you just have to pop the cork! For white wine, store it in your refrigerator first and then take it out for twenty minutes, before serving.

Whatever your inspiration to begin a home collection, your experience should only be pleasurable.

Having a personalized home collection gives you the confidence to order wine when dining out and the opportunity to serve delicious libations at home.

Wine’s popularity has grown tremendously in recent years, especially in light of its touted health benefits. Learning to appreciate wines and building a personal wine collection is a new pastime for many people.

Proper care and storage of wine is essential, and new technology in cooling units makes it easy to have the right equipment in your home.

Wine storage units for the kitchen can hold anywhere from 20-100 bottles and are easy to install. “In the last five to ten years, as kitchens have become larger, with more amenities, homeowners have been requesting these units more often,” says Al Abrams of Cabinet En-Counters. “All you really need to install one is cabinet space and an outlet.”

Manufacturers like U-Line and SubZero design wine storage units that are beautiful and as big as refrigerators, says Rob Myers of Wine Cellar Technologies. These larger units often have pullout drawers for storing other beverages.

“Some coolers have different temperature zones, so different kinds of wines can be held at their ideal temperature,” says Linda Somrak of Somrak Kitchens. These units cost from $700 to $5,000.

Price depends on size as well as design and capability of the unit. A standard-size cooler that sits under the counter top, with a tinted-glass front and wood paneling, runs about $3,000.

An alternative to wine storage units is a full-blown wine cellar.

(Cellar is just the term for describing the area, not necessarily the location.)

“Wine cellars are being included on the first floor of many homes,” notes Pat Perrino, builder of custom wine cellars.

Sliding trays in refrigerated coolers preserve wine quality and organize your wine collection for easy access.

This allows maximum storage for wine aficionados in a convenient location. It also offers a focal point for entertaining. “People with hectic lives can stay at home and entertain rather than sit in a loud, smoky bar,” says Chuck Creatura of Creatura Corporation.

A true wine cellar is equipped with appropriate temperature controls that preserve the wine and allow it to age.

Cellars range in price from $9,000 to $60,000. ❑ Investigate these purveyors of wine storage units: • Thomas Brick Company, 216-831-9116 • Cabinet En-Counters, 216-839-1100 • Creatura Corporation, 800-887-5064 • Faralli Custom Kitchen & Baths, 440-944-4499 • P.

Clevelanders ‘dig’ spring

Clevelanders may joke (or complain) about the weather, but we do have something many cities don’t have – seasons. And one of the best, albeit brief, is spring.

After a long winter, everyone gets a lift seeing leaves unfurl and flowers bloom. If you are a homeowner, however, you know that it takes work to achieve those welcome, colorful blooms. Some of that work should have been done last fall, but it still is not too late for gardeners to enhance the beauty of their yards.

Wayne Impulletti, of Impulletti Landscaping, advocates doing some pruning early in the spring when plants and shrubbery are dormant.

Dan Weintraub, owner of Daisy Hill Greenhouses, suggests pruning roses if they weren’t taken care of last fall. “You need to evaluate the roses, cut out dead growth, and prune them back to 8 or 10 inches.”

Although some bulbs popped through early because of a spell of

mild winter weather, they are pretty hardy and shouldn’t suffer because of their early start.

Tom Santos, manager of Lyndhurst Florist, suggests planting pansies or violets for early color. “Plant them in April, and they can tolerate the cooler temperatures,” he says. “They will give you color until about mid-summer.”

Flower beds need to be properly prepared before you plant annuals.

Weintraub advises first adding peat moss, manure or humus to the soil.

Plants also need to be fertilized.

Impulletti likes to use a 100% slow-release granular product that provides three to four months of a time-released feeding. He advises using a triple 14 with micronutrients. The numbers reflect the percentage of nitrogen, phosphate and potash in the fertilizer.

Mid-May – between the 15th and 30th – is a good time to start planting annuals for the summer. Till those areas, incorporating peat moss and dehydrated cow manure.

Create a spot in your garden to get away from it all. Cozy up around a fire pit, far left, on cool spring evenings.

Rake it smooth, and then prior to planting, use a granular slow-release fertilizer.

This is also a great time to edge beds, creating nice definition of the landscape, and to do any mulching.

Impulletti advises using about 2 inches of mulch. He has seen beds where the mulch is so thick it won’t break down and make organic matter. In those cases, he just tills the soil and lets it sit for a year before adding a

thin layer of mulch. “It might not look as nice this year,” he says, “but it will help get organic matter into the soil.”

Cleveland gardeners need to keep deer and other animals in mind when

planting. “My best advice: Research plants to see if they are deer resistant,” says Impulletti. “People love Stella D’Oro daylilies and so do deer.

You can deal with the problem by spraying with repellant or by using fencing.”

Deer also love hostas and will eat them to the ground. This doesn’t mean you can’t have them, but they require more maintenance.

Geraniums, impatiens and begonias, while not 100% deer resistant, seem to have a better track record than other plants.

Gardeners also need to pay attention to which plants are disease resistant.

“When my father started this busi-

ness in 1952, there were certain things that were a given,” explains Impulletti. “Everyone grew rhododendrons, but today they are getting harder and harder to grow because of root rot and other diseases. Nurseries can control the environment much better than an individual can.

Consequently, when you put them in your yard, you are putting them in a clay soil, which is almost like a bathtub. It sits in water and rots. “The same thing is true for hemlock. The old standbys are changing.” ❑

amethyst ambitions Two Cleveland entrepreneurs give up cash for quartz

W Formations, a decorative stone art gallery in Beachwood Place, sells amethysts as jewelry, bookends, and other accessories.

hen a client offers you an amethyst mine in the back country of Brazil instead of monetary payment, you might consider the pros and cons of that offer. Yes, Rio is pretty, but so are parts of Miami and other places closer to home. They speak Portuguese in Brazil, and you don’t even know Spanish. Their seasons are the opposite of ours, but why bother updating your passport just for a little sunshine?

In short, you’re likely to pass on that deal.

Not Andrew Deutsch.

Instead, the 40-year-old Moreland Hills resident took that amethyst “gold mine” and, with the help of a partner, developed several businesses around its bounty. One of them is Formations, a store selling amethysts as jewelry, bookends, coasters, wind chimes and other decorative items.

The store, located in Beachwood Place mall, also stocks items made from other semi-precious stones such as agate, rose quartz, citrine and hematite. Since opening in August in the Saks Fifth Avenue wing, the displays have caused passersby to “rubberneck like never before,” Deutsch reports.

Just to be clear, co-owner Steve Karklin of Solon notes that the store is a “decorative stone art gallery, not a rock shop.” But they sell loose rocks, too, some for as little as a dollar.

Given his background as a trade consultant specializing in the Central and South American markets, Deutsch originally fig-

ured he would turn around and sell the mine. Except he changed his mind.

He invested in improvements to make the mine more profitable so he could recover greater dividends in its resale. Then he realized it was a terrific business opportunity. He quickly brought in Karklin, 50, who has an extensive entrepreneurial background, as a partner.

Together, they run a vertically integrated business which supplies its own raw material, processes it, and ships directly to consumers worldwide.

Brazil is one of the few places on the planet where amethyst can be found, and they have a generous source of high quality material. But it takes some Indiana Jones-caliber maneuvering to get to and from the mine. Karklin learned this during his first trip to Brazil, which began with a flight to Brazil’s capital São Paulo.

From São Paulo, he and Deutsch hopped in a Jeep along with a mineworker to get out of town. All

went well until the return trip. It was 10 p.m., there were no streetlights, and the poorly maintained roads sport potholes deep enough to be mined themselves. Their Jeep got a flat tire.

With banditos roaming roads at night to prey on people in this very predicament, the situation looked grim. They didn’t even have a flashlight. But they did have a digital camera whose screen lit up, so that became their source of illumination.

They managed a rapid repair without incident, but it was with their hearts in their throats.

Amethysts, however, are worth it.

One customer claims that after failing for 10 years to buy a great gift for his wife, he finally succeeded when he purchased a piece of amethyst jewelry for her.

The key to this stone is “finding the perfect flaw, the thing that makes it unique,” says Deutsch. Items such as necklaces, rings and bracelets generally cost less than $100. Coffee tables and other decorative pieces

Amethysts, explains Deutsch, aren’t just pulled out of the ground.

It’s a painstaking process, beginning with the thunderous sound of dynamite.

“I’ll show you bass,” Deutsch jokes. “The inexperienced jump in fear when they hear it.”

lava. The pockets were filled with extremely hot water that dissolved minerals under tremendous pressure. Thousands of years later, the geodes cooled and precipitated crystals of quartz. Surrounding rocks simultaneously emitted low-level radiation that caused the iron in the quartz to align and result in the familiar purple color.

While Deutsch returns to Brazil every few months to visit his operation, he stays in touch daily and knows exactly what’s going to be

delivered. It helps, he adds, that his workers are honest and ethical and are paid based on what comes out of the mine. In addition, the sheer weight of an amethyst hunk serves as a major theft deterrent.

Back in Beachwood, those known as “rock hounds” are surprised to see such an impressive collection on display, with new pieces continually arriving. In truth, it’s like going to a museum, except that, for a price, you can take something home with you. ❑

It’s no act

BY MARGI HERWALD

J

eff Grover is going to be a psychopathic murderer.

Not really.

The 49-year-old Hunting Valley resident is an actor. He’s gearing up to play a crazy killer in an independent film and to play Bruno Hauptmann, the Lindbergh baby kidnapper, in a staged reading.

“I tend to get cast typically as a proper gentleman or a straightforward control freak,” Grover sighs. “The fact is, I’m very vulnerable, and I’m looking forward to a chance to act that out in a character with lots of edges whose choices aren’t always acceptable.”

Grover has trod the boards at the (now defunct) Jewish Community Center Halle Theatre, Dobama, the Ensemble Theatre, Cleveland Public Theatre, and the Charenton theater company. Currently, he’s rehearsing “Mrs. Warren’s Profession” by George Bernard Shaw at The Beck Center. The show, which opens March 31, will mark the first time Grover’s gotten to share the stage with Cleveland theater legends Dorothy and Reuben Silver.

“People say (acting’s) a nice hobby. It’s not a hobby,” Grover says emphatically. “Even if you don’t do it full-time, when you’re working on a show, it’s a full-time commitment.”

Dressed casually in jeans and a black leather jacket, Grover leans back in his chair at Fairmount Circle Arabica, his leg up on the chair next to him. The coffee shop has been serving as his virtual office for his newest non-acting venture: Northstar Films, a documentary production company he started with filmmaker Michael Kirk.

The pair formed the company after Kirk directed

Grover in a dramatization segment for a previous documentary. The men got to talking about business ideas while on the set, and now their company is producing its first film, “America’s Iliad: The Siege of Charleston.”

Kirk is in South Carolina filming the Civil War documentary, while Grover works on raising capital up North.

“Ideally, as we build the company, my intention is to balance my time with the business and still do a few

live theater shows a year. I don’t want to lose that,” Grover says.

Cleveland’s vibrant and varied theatrical offerings remain undiscovered by many locals who don’t realize “there’s a lot more than Playhouse Square,” Grover notes. “If you only go to (commercial theater), you don’t get to penetrate a lot of edgy, difficult material. Our local theater is accessible and inexpensive. The problem is just having enough time to see it all.”

Grover credits the richness of the Cleveland theater scene to the artistic directors and visionaries who keep the smaller, local theaters like Beck Center, Dobama and Charenton going.

“They’re the folks really on the edge all the time financially. They put their personal finances on the line and are dedicated to their mission.

That’s what I’m attracted to. It makes me want to help their theaters become stronger.”

One theater Grover fought to help was the JCC Halle Theatre. It closed its doors in 2005 after financial strains and reorganization at the JCC forced it to suspend operations on a one-year hiatus in 2003. The JCC relaunched a new Arts & Culture program whose seasons include, but are not solely comprised of, plays and musicals. While the arts in general are back, the physical theater was demolished with the Mayfield JCC building in 2005. Current productions run at various locations in the community that partner with the “J.” “Being Jewish, I was nestled into the JCC theater at first,” says Grover, who appeared in such Halle shows as “Never the Sinner” and “Conversations With My Father.” “I felt comfortable with the Jewish audience. I owe my desire and love for theater to the JCC.” Grover served on the task force that examined ways to save the Halle. While he’s happy that an arts program still exists at the agency, he feels strongly that the JCC needs a permanent theater space of its own. “I see the Maltz Museum, and I think, why can’t we find similar funding from a philanthropist to create a Jewish theater?”

Nonetheless, Grover stresses that the most important thing

is that the JCC arts program keeps going in any form. “We have a big enough Jewish community, we should be able to support and perpetuate this. It needs to be more than two shows a year. It needs to be several plays a year and readings.”

When the Halle closed, Grover was asked to co-host its farewell gala performance. During the “bittersweet” show, he also performed a scene from the comedy “Beau Jeste” in which he had to eat a giant mound of horseradish at a Passover seder. He had originally planned to ingest only a small portion of the maror, but in the moment, knowing it would be his last performance on the Halle stage, he went for realism and ate it all.

“It brought tears to my eyes literally and figuratively and set the tone for the ending,” he recalls. *** Grover’s interest in theater, he confesses, began as “a lark.” While a student at Orange High School, Grover was acquainted with another student, theater diehard Fred Sternfeld, who would eventually grow up to become a prominent director in Cleveland theater and artistic director of the JCC Arts & Culture program.

“Fred heard me hamming it up in the library, singing a song,” Grover recalls. “He said, ‘Hey, we need some guys for a play at the JCC.’” At Sternfeld’s invitation, Grover auditioned for “Holy Moses” at the Halle.

He got the part of Moses, opposite Sternfeld playing God, and was instantly bit by the acting bug.

At the University of Michigan, he was surrounded by theater majors who had been acting all their lives, and Grover felt he was a little behind his classmates. He transferred to Case Western Reserve University’s smaller theater department, ultimately earning a subsidy to continue on to Case’s graduate theater program.

But in 1978, just as he was about to enter graduate school, the 22-year-old received a call from his brother, who posed that important question all aspiring actors are asked: How

094-097_st20_herwald-grover

3/9/06

3:45 PM

will you support yourself and some day, a family?

So, rather than attend grad school, Grover decided to enter the family business, National Paper and Packaging. He still auditioned and performed on the side when he could, until his first child was born in 1983.

“I stopped theater altogether. Cold turkey,” he says.

But in 1996, the curtain rose on act two of Grover’s theatrical career when Fred Sternfeld “surfaced again.”

Sternfeld was directing “God of Isaac” at the JCC, and he asked Grover to audition. Although Grover did try out, Sternfeld cast someone else in the role. An angry Grover began searching for other roles and other theaters to work at after his JCC rejection; then an actor dropped out of “God of Isaac,” and he ended up taking over the part.

“I really enjoyed the scene,” Grover says of his return to theater.

“The professionals I was working with and the environment were more disciplined than I remembered. I worked with very giving artists who enabled me to learn more.”

In 1999, Grover sold his family business, which “allowed me to have some freedom.” He threw himself whole-heartedly into his acting career and has worked consistently at local professional theaters ever since.

In addition to his acting work, Grover has served on the board of Dobama and currently is on the board of The Cleveland Play House.

Page 5

One of Grover’s most memorable roles was as the writer Trigorin who cheats on his wealthy lover Arkadina (Tracee Patterson) in Chekhov’s “The Seagull” at Beck Center.

These positions have enabled him to work closely with prominent arts supporters in the community, among them Bob Gries, Vic Gelb, Norm Wain, and Grover’s aunt Natalie Epstein, all of whom he calls his mentors.

“They see the value of the arts in the context of their nonprofit work.

They show vibrancy. I hope that’s the way I’ll evolve.”

One way Grover is evolving is into a film producer. His Northstar Films has more documentary projects lined up to follow “America’s Iliad.” Grover and his business partner Kirk are also creating third-, eighth- and

The Jeff Grover Résumé Favorite Lead Role: Malvolio in “Twelfth Night” as a college student at Case or Flan in “Six Degrees of Separation” at Charenton.

Favorite Supporting Role: Playing multiple roles in the “The Exonerated” at Dobama, a play with “social value” about the death penalty.

Worst Costume Ever: Period costumes and wigs in the Oscar Wilde bio play “Gross Indecency” at Cleveland Public Theatre. “It was the middle of the summer, and we all lost weight from sweating. I’ve never been so uncomfortable in my life!”

Dream Role: “If I were 20 years younger, I’d revisit (Chekhov’s) ‘Three Sisters’ as Vershinin or Tuzenbach. Or Jamie in (Eugene O’Neil’s) ‘Long Day’s Journey into Night.’”

Favorite Green Room: Upstairs at the Mayfield JCC, above the former Halle Theatre, near the boilers and air conditioning units. “I’d go there to prepare before a show.”

eleventh-grade curricula that combine a five- to ten-minute portion of the film with study guides to teach a history lesson.

“It’s hard to make money doing documentaries,” Grover concedes.

“But, if you pair it with a curriculum, it becomes a revenue stream.”

Although film business and theater rehearsals can keep Grover on the move, he’s proud that his family supports his efforts, especially his wife Ann Thompson, an interior designer who is also training to be a yoga instructor. The couple has three sons: Andrew, 22, pursuing a career in sports broadcasting at Indiana University; Jeremy, 18, a freshman also at IU; and Brian, 10, who “wants to play football every day and remind me of what kind of shape I’m not in.”

Daughter Megan, 12, is following in her father’s theatrical footsteps, studying at Fairmount Performing Arts Camp and performing at Chagrin Valley Little Theatre. “It’s fun to watch her be so passionate,” Grover says.

“There’s not a moment at rehearsal when I don’t miss being home; it’s a real sacrifice,” he admits. “But when I’m at the theater, at the same time, there’s nowhere else I’d rather be.” ❑

Rubbing shoulders with the stars Former Clevelander turns celebrity fashion designer

BY ELLEN HARRIS he storyline reads like a made-for-TV sitcom: Nice Jewish girl from Cleveland Heights goes to Manhattan to work as a business analyst; on a whim, she takes sewing lessons in the garment district and winds up designing clothes for A-list celebrities.

In Naomi Strauss’s case, it’s all true.

Fashion design was the furthest thing from Strauss’s mind when she left Cleveland for the Big Apple after graduating from the University of Rochester with a degree in history. After a few years of working for a start-up Internet company and then a financial services firm, Strauss

landed a buying job at Macy’s.

Always intrigued by fashion, she helped launch a sophisticated new clothing line. After deciding to experiment with some designs of her own, Strauss signed up for a four-week sewing machine class.

She was immediately hooked. “At first, I was sewing for myself when I wanted something special,” says the Hawken graduate. “I spent countless hours draping fabric over my body, then figured out how to actually put the piece together.” Before long, Strauss recalls, “People would stop me and ask, ‘Where did you get it?’”

About two years ago, Strauss decided to strike out on her own. Drawing on her marketing and financial savvy as well as her fashion instincts, she opened NAO, a studio based in her West Village apartment. She began with a one-of-a-kind couture collection, emphasizing fine fabrics and soft draping, and she showcased her work at boutiques and private trunk shows.

Fate intervened when the future mother-in-law of supermodel/ actress Catherine McCord (“Derailed,” “Raising Helen”) purchased two pieces for the prospective bride and accompanied her to Strauss’s studio for fittings.

“The two had been shopping for wedding dresses all day without finding anything they loved,” recalls Strauss. As she pinned and draped fabric around the actress, McCord asked her, “Do you think you could make my wedding dress?”

The result, says Strauss, was an exquisite, backless

gown fashioned from layers of silk charmeuse, scalloped along one side, and featuring a halter neckline draped to resemble leaves. Strauss also designed McCord’s rehearsal dinner dress and six other couture pieces for her trousseau, each prompting attention and orders from celebrities on the East and West coasts.

Spurred on by her success, Strauss has just launched a ready-to-wear collection consisting of ten elegantly draped garments, ranging from interchangeable tops, skirts and slacks to drop-dead evening wear. Fashioned from soft, Tencel Lycra, each is available in a variety of colors and sizes, priced from $95 to $395.

“The drape is flattering to all body sizes and ages, and it’s chic and sexy at the same time,” says Strauss, pointing out that her designs expose a woman’s shoulders, collarbones, and neck, “all great body parts.”

One of the hallmarks of the new collection is its versatility, she adds. For example, the “Nora” top (each garment is named after a special woman in Strauss’s life) features a cowl neck and batwing sleeves which can be worn upside down, with the hood of the cowl forming the skirt of a dress.

The response has been phenomenal, says Strauss, who spoke to the CJN from Los Angeles, where she had just presided over a trunk show at the home of McCord and her new husband, Jon Gordon, president of production at Universal Studios. Among her new customers is actor Summer Phoenix, a member of the

famed rock-music family.

Despite her rapid rise to success, Strauss still maintains complete control over her designs, draping fabrics over her 5-ft. 8-in. body first and sewing the garment herself, before taking it to a pattern maker to duplicate. All the apparel is made in New York with Strauss and her only employee, a veteran production manager, closely monitoring the process.

Strauss, 29, acknowledges that her career has taken on “a bit of a jet set” persona, but she also notes that she frequently works 16-hour days. Even so, she maintains an active social life and enjoys attending Shabbat services at Central Synagogue.

“When you love what you’re doing, you manage to fit it all in,” observes the young designer, who anticipates visiting her hometown and her parents Eugenia and Ronald Strauss soon, when her line is available in local boutiques.

Shoes, glorious shoes!

BY JANET DERY ex and the City’s” Carrie Bradshaw once pleaded with a mugger on the mean streets of New York City. “Please sir,” she begged. “You can take my Fendi baguette; you can take my ring and my watch, but don’t take my Manolo Blahniks.”

Few women take shoes as seriously as Carrie does, but most of us have obsessed over a sexy sandal or a pair of thongs we live in all season long.

Let’s face it. That flirty, feminine dress you bought in anticipation of those hot summer nights just isn’t an outfit until you accessorize it with the perfect pair of shoes.

So what’s hot for spring? What’s not?

Expect to see a lot of platforms, gladiator sandals, espadrilles and wedge heels this season, say local retailers. Ballet flats and flip-flops will continue their fashion-forward strut down the catwalk … and the sidewalk.

But lest you think you can dig out those platforms you wore to the Bee Gees concert in the ’70s, beware.

“These are not shoes we’ve seen before,” explains Dixie Lee Davis, director of the Fifth Avenue Club at Saks. “Platforms have new details, such as Mary Jane buckles, T-straps and ankle interest.”

The latest word in color for shoes? Metallic. With all the gold, silver and bronze adorning ladies’ feet this spring, who needs Fort Knox?

Of course, the perennial black-and-white motif will

continue to win popularity contests, and this year, a nautical trend in red, navy and white will be added to the mix.

These days, shoes come with their own accessories. “There is a big trend in metal hardware on footwear,” says Sherry Bryan, owner of Knuth’s in Pepper Pike. Studs and grommets, mostly in antique brass and gold will be strong sellers, as will jewels, shells and beading, notes Bryan.

Bonnie Chernikoff, owner of Bonnie’s Goubaud at Eton Chagrin Boulevard, will be showing iridescent metallic sandals from Bernardo – bronze thongs, and silver ones with a big toe ring. For women who crave color, there are also faux python flat sandals in shades of metallic pink and green. And denim slide sandals with a little wedge heel are as “cute as can be,” says Chernikoff.

Saks’s Davis explains that most shoes are designed to complement one of the three fashion “stories,” or trends, you’ll see in ready-to-wear this spring. The romantic “English garden” look will take a lighter, softer shoe. The modern “chic restraint” style, in which clothes are worn close to the body, requires very “clean” shoes, such as a version of a pump, says Davis. And finally, freespirited fashionistas may be happiest with the ethnic “destination

BY RAE PHILLIPS inter had barely begun, and I was already sorting through spring looks from the U.S., in addition to those from Paris and Milan, where many important trends are born. Nothing like getting a jump on the season.

Couture serves as inspiration for more affordable clothing. I consider couture a blueprint for wise and chic purchases –– or how to look au courant on a realistic budget.

Once upon a time, it took well over a year for fashion to “trickle down” from a department store’s haute couture specialty area to the moderate price section. With the advent of the

computer age and cell phone cameras, however, it’s very likely a look by Versace will be in Target about the same time it arrives in the specialty shops and boutiques. It won’t be as well constructed, or fashioned from as precious a textile, but the essence and look will be there.

White is the one important color for spring 2006. It’s being shown with desert tones and the perennial black.

(My personal wardrobe for travel at this season will be/is white, beige and black, which can be mixed or matched in a variety of ways.)

Versace has shown less flash and more constraint, resulting in a more elegant look that still dazzles. Touches of blue keep those muted colors from being boring. Still using that

restrained palette, Versace retains his “slashed” eveningwear, with a more refined look than usual.

Gucci’s collection is outstanding, truly giving Oscar de la Renta and Badgley Mischka real competition.

Gianfranco Ferré shows white, fresh from Mexico –– think peasant blouses, eyelet, and subdued looks for daywear. Dolce and Gabbana do bustiers and cotton dresses, dresses and suits with lace insets, and full prairie-look skirts.

Milan has produced many trendsetters from couture collections over the years. Explore Saks’s or Nordstrom’s couture sections to see these designs. Check out Miu Miu (I still don’t like empire waists and they show them, in white, of course).

Armani did some lovely things in pale gray; Missoni showed the usual looks in bold stripes, zigzags, and some baby-doll, sherbet-tone dresses (not one of my favorite looks either).

Alberta Ferretti was the lone standout, using lots of embellishment on almost everything.

Paris’s spring looks are lovely!

From Chanel and its all-important suits, to Louis Vuitton, whose clothing looks terrific, to all those important handbags. Valentino uses black and white in combination, as well as separately, and his kimono jackets are clean-cut and chic.

After the collection was shown and applauded, Chloe’s designer, Phoebe Philo, left to have more time with her family. She shows lots of

white linen and organza –– some simple, some embellished.

Stella McCartney employs prints and shows strapless dresses topped with a blazer. I like her very sophisticated looks, including a sharp shirtwaist dress, cocktail attire, and pants.

Other Paris designers worth noting are Christian Lacroix, Givenchy, and Jean Paul Gaultier.

That brings us to the good old U.S.A. –– because we live here, not in Europe, and our fashion “ahs” have always been geared to a more casual lifestyle. For great fashion looks, you don’t get better than Oscar de la Renta. His day wear isn’t something a great many of us would consider, depending on our lifestyles, but his

evening wear is SPECIAL! It’s hard not to be seduced by his exquisite formal gowns.

Two years ago in Paris, I found a terrific skirt with a zigzag hem and slashes where the skirt’s four points were –– before that look was copied everywhere.

This season, at Ralph Lauren, I got a satin shirt –– elegant and simple –– and I wore it with that skirt, and I will continue to do so because I love the look. Ralph Lauren’s things are made with great attention to detail, and almost everything he touches has a long life because it is so classic.

His spring collection is elegant and stunning!

where he does a few pieces at bargain prices.

“Cheap Chic” is a term we can all learn. Calvin Klein has retired, and that label has a new designer. The look is pretty faithful to the original –– still minimal and yes, lots of white.

Donna Karan does a number of empire-cut dresses and a few abstract prints, neither of which appealed to me. Badgley Mischka just makes gorgeous dressy clothes, and they’re not as pricey as Oscar’s gowns. I think they’re very special. Carolina Herrera (a line I used to buy) has a very circumspect, traditional look, always in style and never trendy.

Then there is Diane von Furstenberg. For readers who shopped at Rae Phillips Inc., we had the privilege of being the store that gave her her first order.

Benevolence the boutique She did trunk shows for us and her wrap dress (after she showed me how to tie it so it hugged the bust) was a real favorite with Clevelanders. She still makes that look and has reinvented the line. While prices are considerably higher than they once were (what isn’t?), the looks are good.

Spring coats just don’t exist any more; however, raincoats have replaced that category, and Max Mara’s creamy white trench coat is a winner.

Now that I’ve gone over the important looks for this season, a word about denim, the wonder of the fashion industry! No matter our age or size, jeans are important.

I’m not sure I would race right out and invest $200 in a pair, but a good-fitting jean is a necessity. I haven’t tried a dressy top with jeans yet; age gets in the way. But I do wear jeans, my favorite pair being just trim slacks made of denim.

I hope this gives you some input into some wise and wonderful purchases. Happy retail therapy! ❑

style spies trends in eyewear that are good looking and help you look good!

Barely there New technology in eyewear translates to titanium alloy frames that are so flexible they can wrap around your finger and so strong they snap right back every time. Thin metal frames can soften angular features and balance your face.

Try rimless frames for a no-nonsense, natural look, suggests Lance Snar of Thoma & Sutton Eye Care. “Very minimalist.”

Big and bold Designers and young fashionistas are driving a move to heavier, thicker, darker plastic frames or “shields.”

They’re calling it “the Jackie O. look.”

But beware: shields are great for sunglasses, but they may lose that young sporty look mixed with thick prescription lenses. Some new frames work best as sunglasses.

Bright color Fuchsia pink, teal blue, red or green. Advances in plastic and anodized metals allows frame designers to experiment with vibrant colors and new shapes in lenses big and small.

“Tortoiseshell is the old standby, but why not express yourself ?” says Kathy Leoni co-owner of Eyewear at the Hamptons.

Consider your hair color and skin tone when trying on colors. Darker colors can weigh your face down and make you look heavier. Lighter, brighter colors give a little lift.

Color is especially flattering on a mature face with white or gray hair, says Bob Saiger, owner of Park OpticianS. Build a collection “You wouldn’t go to a wedding wearing the same pair of shoes you wore to clean the kitchen floor,” observes Saiger.

“You should have as many pairs of glasses as you have shoes.”

Glasses sit on the end of your nose where everybody sees them. They should shout your personality. You don’t have to pay a lot to be stylish — frames range from under $100 to upwards of $1000.

Look for frames the opposite shape of your face for harmony and balance.

• Oval — Most styles look good on oval faces, so try either geometric or rounded frames.

• Oblong — Pick a curved or rounded style to emphasize the width of your face rather than the depth.

• Round — Squared or angled frames will help sharpen your features — avoid round frames.

• Triangular — Aviator and geometric styles can add width to the lower part of the face.

• Square — Look for rounded, cat-eyed, or oval styles to soften the shape of your face. Thin metal and rimless styles will be flattering.

• Rectangular — Curved or rounded styles will make your face appear wider.

• Heart-Shape — For balance, look for asymmetrical frames that are wider at the bottom than at the top.

• Diamond — Small frames in oval or horizontal shapes are best.

When choosing frames, consider their overall size, which should be in proportion to the size of your face. Frames that are too large on a small face will make you look like an owl; frames too small for your face will make you look heavy and tired, no matter what style they are. Make sure the frames fit properly.

Your pupils should fall in the center of the lenses, and frames shouldn’t move around on your face when you smile. Your eyebrows should align with the top of the frames.

Above all, choose a frame that you like and that reflects your style and personality.

Accessories to design

N

atural materials – wood, bamboo, crocheted cotton, lace and leathers – are transforming accessories this spring, adding an element of artsy, casual femininity to jewelry, belts and handbags.

This trend is exemplified by the popularity of long, beaded necklaces. Large beads of wood, glass, metal and plastic are being strung in long, plentiful loops, in combination with softer material like crocheted beads, lace and ribbons.

“One of the most popular trends with beads is the layered look, says Ellyn Wayne of owner Ellyn’s in Shaker Hts. “Customers are wearing a series of necklaces in different lengths, with corresponding beads in all of them.

They’re wearing a mixture of crystal and stones beads as well as gold and silver.”

Wayne says the look starts short and goes long, often reaching reaching down to the navel.

Some jewelry incorporates the crocheted lace, appliqué and pompoms which ornament spring clothing and handbags.

These handmade pieces – necklaces with complementing bangles and earrings to match – add a bohemian flair to spring outfits.

Although chandelier earrings haven’t gone away, they’ve yielded some of their popularity to dangling lines of beads.

Spring’s freshest accessory may be big bangles in an astonishing variety of materials and textures. Wide bands of leather, wood and fabric are being embellished with rhinestones, mother-of-pearl and beading.

Bangles are a lot like miniature versions of the wide, ornate belts, which are again in style. Some belts are bright slashes of colored leather, bedecked with studs, beads or jewels.

Sporting large, ornate belt buckles, the belts are being worn over longer tops and tunics, says Jennifer Wadas, owner of Jennahbella’s Clothing Boutique in Mentor.

Handbags, unlike belts, don’t require any gym-time to look good on you.

This spring, handbags will be larger and softer, with the gathered

ends and external pockets characteristic of satchels and hobo bags. White is a big color for handbags this spring, with soft metallics – silver, gold, and bronze – a close second.

Referring to a purple Versace bag she likes, Wadas notes that the purple hues fashionable in clothing are also making inroads into handbags.

Materials and textures play a defining role in handbags, more so than shape. Woven wood, tooled leather, straw, beaded cloth, crocheted metal, and gilded or bronzed leather are all being used in simply-shaped totes as well are ornately decorated hand and shoulder bags.

Appliqué, crocheted cotton, beading, fringe and even pompoms add to the glamour and interest in spring bags – sometimes too much so. Conventional fashion wisdom suggests that ornately decorated bags are best paired with simple outfits; otherwise your bag and your clothes – not to mention your shoes, jewelry, and makeup – will all be competing for attention. ❑

raduation is right around the corner, and so are dozens of graduation parties. If you are the parent of a high school senior, now is the time to start planning your graduate’s party. A few simple tips from local partyplanning experts guarantee a celebration that both teenagers and adults on your guest list will enjoy.

“A graduation party should be fun, not elaborate,” says Pam Holliday, owner of Eventmasters Ltd. “It should be a reflection of the child’s p e r s o n a l i t y, accomplishments, and future goals.”

But before you start buying decorations, set a budget. This will help you decide where to hold the party, how many guests you invite, what type of food you serve, and if you will be hiring a DJ for enterG tainment. And TY R don’t forget to PA ask the graduate what he or she wants – e! planning a du party will be a lot a r g for the input. easier with your child’s “The majority of people hold graduation parties at their homes,” says Ginny Sukenik, owner of G.S. Special Events.

“Backyard barbecues are popular, but make sure you have a backup space available in case it rains!”

f you’re going to be serving alcohol at your child’s graduation party, be sensitive to your underage guests! If you are unable to hire a bartender, set up two bars – one for soda pop and water and the other for beer and wine. That way, says Holliday, you can monitor your guests responsibly.

Once you pick your venue, it’s time to plan the party’s menu. Both Holliday and Sukenik say graduation fare can range from the very simple – pizza, hotdogs, and hamburgers – to more upscale and catered selections.

Don’t forget graduation parties often overlap, and guests may attend several in one day. It’s important not to overestimate your guests’ appetites when ordering food.

“One of the easiest ways to make your party stand out is to tailor the menu to a certain theme,” Holliday says. “If your child is going to be studying abroad, serve food from the country he or she will be visiting.”

Holliday also suggests creating decorations to match the food’s theme. For example, if your graduate will be spending a year in Japan, use Kanji-style lettering to create festive banners or paper lanterns as inexpensive centerpieces. Smooth, polished rocks and simple candles could also lend exotic flair to the party.

Balloons and banners are standard decorations at most graduation parties, but it is possible to add a unique twist to these time-honored favorites by using the graduate’s school colors for accents. You can also personalize party banners with embellishments that celebrate your child’s accomplishments, such as the school mascot for athletes or the NHS logo for serious scholars.

If your budget doesn’t include a DJ, plan activities that will keep your guests busy and entertained.

“Volleyball, badminton, and bocce ball are great ways to get people to interact with each other,” Holliday says. “Plus, people will stick around longer if they have something to do.”

Another way to make your party stand out is to plan it for later in the summer, when all the other graduation parties are over. Or, have a “goodbye” party right before your child leaves for college, rather than a traditional graduation party in June.

But the most important thing to remember is that you don’t have to spend a ton of money to have a great party.

And, adds Sukenik, “Don’t make things so difficult that you can’t enjoy the party with your child!” ❑ For help celebrating your graduate’s achievement, call: • Aladdin’s Eatery, 440-684-1168 • Executive Caterers at Landerhaven, 440-449-0700 • Fire, 216-921-3473 • Flemings Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar, 216-896-9000 • La Casa Bella, 440-439-0097 • The Melting Pot, 216-381-2700 • Mitchell’s Homemade Ice Cream, 216-831-2722 & 440-542-0023 • Roseland Lanes, 440-232-5444 • Sensational Celebrations, 216-292-1836 • Sobella Paper Boutique, 216-229-1333 • Taza Café, 216-464-4000

Learning tsedakah are the Adato siblings, from left, Heather, Isabelle, Kaleb and Joram.

s parents, we often rely on outside sources to teach our children things we can’t teach them ourselves. We send them to school to learn their 3 Rs. We ferry them to dance classes, piano lessons, swim lessons, art lessons and Hebrew school.

While all of these subjects require homework or practice to enhance their performance, it can sometimes be difficult to know what kind of “practice” our children need to enhance their Jewish education.

Susan Wyner, religious school director at B’nai Jeshurun, encourages parents to take things that are part of the rhythm of life and add a Jewish component to them. Many parents read to their children, so why not read a Jewish bedtime story? Sometimes parents are looking for special outings on Sunday. How about a trip to the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage?

Inject some Judaism into family time. If busy families can only sit down together for dinner just one night a week, says Wyner, “Why not make it Shabbat dinner

and add blessings so it becomes a holy time?”

Barbara Rosenfeld, coordinator of family education at B’nai Jeshurun, teaches her very young students to make an edible cornucopia for Thanksgiving. The children then learn the Hebrew blessings for the different foods.

She suggests posting the blessings in the kitchen or dining room, so the family can say them at each mealtime.

Alan Goldman, an Orthodox Jew, has found ways to bring the lesser-known aspects of Judaism to his children’s attention. The University Heights resident researched the custom of holding a Tu b’Shevat seder by tracking down a manuscript on the custom, which began in Sfat in the 1500s. This “New Year of the Trees” often passes with little fanfare. Many people may eat carob, a fruit native to Israel, or plant a tree, but Goldman really wanted to have a chance to participate in its environmental and aesthetic aspects.

“In a nutshell – quite literally – we eat different kinds of fruit as a way of saying thanks at a very simple level,” explains Goldman. “But the kabbalistic symbols refer to different aspects in our personality.” His family and guests learn from different biblical texts about the fruits and the land of Israel.

In addition to exposing their children to religious cus-

toms, the Adato family also works to familiarize them with Jewish values. Debbie and Leon Adato regularly get together with a large group of friends for Shabbat dinner and holidays. As the group grew, the “grown-ups” dispensed with buying Chanukah presents that, for most of the children, would be just another toy. Instead, they instituted a yearlong tsedakah project that culminates on Chanukah. “Someone brought in an old pickle jar, so now every Shabbat we put money in the jar,” notes Leon. “It’s a real reminder to everyone that tsedakah is an everyday commandment.”

According to Leon, Naomi Friddle (one of the Shabbat dinner regulars) started the tradition that on the Shabbat of Chanukah everyone gets together to advocate for causes important to them. After the kids hear about these causes, they decide which organizations or beneficiaries will get the money they have collected over the year.”

When Hurricane Katrina hit last August, the Adatos and their friends were discussing the weekly Torah portion, which talked about giving without restraint or judgment. “Someone said, passionately, that there are people who need this money now.” They emptied the jar and made the donation for the survivors through the Jewish Community Federation. ❑

In addition to religious customs, familiarize children with Jewish values.

hen you think about home health care, do you automatically assume it’s a service for the elderly? If you do, you’re not alone. But today’s home health care agencies provide specialized services to individuals of any age who are recovering from a surgical procedure, undergoing physical therapy, or need help managing a chronic condition. They even help new moms with the extra stress of multiple births.

Home health care agencies provide two types of services: skilled and unskilled. Skilled services include nursing assessment and observation; disease-specific training; medication management; physical, occupational, and speech therapies; and counseling. Unskilled services are provided by certified home health aides, who perform such nonmedical tasks as bathing, grooming, and dressing a patient; meal preparation; and light housekeeping.

The majority of home health care agencies provide both skilled and unskilled services to their clients.

For example, the Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) is a full-service, community-driven home care agency with more than 800 employees, including physicians; nurses; physical, occupational, and behavioral therapists; social workers; home health aides; spiritual counselors; and bereavement coordinators.

“We provide everything from medical or surgical care to end-of-life services,” says Erin Wells, manager of marketing and public relations for the VNA. “Our services vary on a case-by-case basis and may include short-term care for a patient recovering from an accident or a more exten-

sive arrangement that involves ongoing care.”

In addition, the VNA has partnered with MetroHealth Hospital to provide post-partum women with short-term assistance after they leave the hospital. Sally Moennich, the executive director of the VNA CarePlus program, says that it is

mainly geared toward women who have given birth to twins or triplets.

CarePlus aides are trained to care for infants and help new mothers with household chores as they recover from the birth of their children.

“While it’s true that the majority of our patients are senior citizens, we also take care of people with long-

term disabilities or behavioral health issues,” says Lee Cook, an administrator for home health services at Menorah Park Center for Senior Living. “Many of our patients, regardless of age, require follow-up care after an illness or surgery, while others need our help because they suffer from chronic or progressive conditions.”

“Our patients may vary in age, but they all have a disability or need for companionship because their families feel that they are not safe at home by themselves,” says Connie Hill-Johnson, managing director of Visiting Angels Senior Home Care, a Cleveland-based agency that provides non-medical assistance to its patients.

Many of Hill-Johnson’s clients are referred to Visiting Angels Senior Home Care by a visiting nurse or other skilled worker. In fact, Hill-Johnson’s aides often work with a skilled agency to devise individualized and comprehensive home health care plans that include medication reminders or the implementation of certain safety measures.

Norma Goodman, the owner and administrator of Infinity Health Services, says that home health care is about more than a patient’s medical needs. Instead, it’s about the health, well-being, and welfare of patients and their caregivers. “One of the most important services we provide is respite care for caregivers,” Goodman says.

“Often, a caregiver is so busy taking care of a sick individual that they forget to take care of themselves. Home

Infinity Health Services delivers care that provides clients with the highest quality of life, the greatest amount of independence and human dignity in the most efficient manner possible.

health aides offer caregivers the opportunity to take a break and still provide their loved ones with competent care.”

Another important aspect of home health care is patient education. Lisa Kristosik, director of home health care at Montefiore at Home, says that patient education is designed to help an individual become independent. “Our job is to help patients understand their condition and learn how to manage it by themselves, with only occasional visits by a nurse to monitor their progress.”

Menorah Park’s Kulber agrees with her colleague, adding: “Patients tend to do better at home. They’re more comfortable in a familiar environment, so our ultimate goal is to teach them the skills they need to remain in their home for as long as possible.” ❑

You enjoy lunch at one of the little eateries in town, then attend a pottery class. Or perhaps you prefer working off that lunch with a game of tennis or a round of golf.

than 130 years, Chautauqua has drawn visitors looking for renewal of the mind, body and spirit to its bucolic lakeshore community.

The original intent of its founders, Northeast Ohio industrialist Lewis Miller and Methodist minister John Heyl Vincent, was to offer religious enhancement and reflection for Sunday School teachers during the summer. The founders’ experiment led to the “Chautauqua Movement.” Rural communities across the country in the early 20th century set up mini-Chautauquas. In New York, the original concept quickly broadened to include academic subjects, music, art and physical education.

Today, people of all faiths, including various Jewish congregations, come to the quaint Victorian village on the shores of Lake Chautauqua to relax and

notes Sullivan, the increased enrollments year after year in the popular children’s clubs indicate that more young families are making Chautauqua their vacation choice, too.

The sense of security on the grounds is welcoming to families. “When the grandchildren come, they can run free,” said Iris November. The institute strives for a car-free campus, which makes the streets safer for young ones to roam. Electric carts, bicycles and feet are the preferred modes of transportation.

Placid, mile-wide Chautauqua Lake is home to the institute’s four beaches, including one children’s beach with shallower water. The Chautauqua sailing department offers a one-week curriculum of lessons for all ages and a variety of boat rentals.

The bounty of programs offered at the institute, of course, does not come free. A one-week gate pass costs $290 ($300 after June 1) per person. A minor pass (ages 13-17) costs $120 for the first minor and $80 for each additional minor. Children 12 and under are free.

Discounted gate fees are offered for each additional week purchased. A weekly parking pass costs $42.

The gate fee includes all lectures and Amphitheater events (orchestra, popular entertainers, etc.) and use of the grounds, including beaches.

Beyond the institute’s grounds, Chautauqua County offers a smorgasbord of recreational activities. They range from the 20-mile Chautauqua Wine Trail to miles of antiques shopping; from fishing, boating, hunting and hiking to spas and art galleries.

“There is something for everyone at Chautauqua,” says Gelb. “It gives you the opportunity to expand your mind.”

Chautauqua offers its visitors a variety of accommodations. Quaint inns, full-service hotels, luxury condominiums, single-family homes and old-style rooming houses are among the choices.

he 2006 Commander is the latest in Jeep’s line of civilian sport utility vehicles.

Ironically, the newest model has been crafted to look like it’s the oldest.

With its sharp-edged lines, upright windshield, bold front grille and overall boxiness, the Commander (starting MSRP $27,290) is designed to pay homage to classic Jeeps such as the popular Grand Cherokee. Indeed, the Commander is essentially a Grand Cherokee that’s been stretched into the company’s firstever seven-passenger SUV. Like all Jeeps, the Commander is made to handle serious off-road use; it has nearly nine inches of ground clearance and front and rear overhangs designed for climbing and descending steep grades.

The vehicle is perfect for tackling rugged off-road terrain or towing heavy equipment. If you never plan to go off-road, however, the Commander is a bit overwhelming for smooth pavement driving and should not be expected to offer a carlike ride.The vehicle is better-suited for Cleveland’s inclement weather and potholed roads.

The Commander rides on a suspension system like that of the Grand Cherokee: independent setup in the front and a live axle and five-link suspension in the rear. While this is the most modern suspension setup in Jeep history, it offers a truck-like ride and handling,

which means it’s less comfortable and stable on pavement than a car.

The base model comes standard with a 210-horsepower, 3.7-liter V-6 engine. A larger 4.8-liter V-8 that generates 235 hp is optional on the base model and standard on the Limited version. A more potent 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 with 330 hp is an option only on four-wheel-drive Limited models.

The Hemi V-8 gets 13 miles per gallon in city driving and an estimated 18 mpg on the highway. Fuel consumption for the base V-6 motor is estimated at 16 mpg city and 19 mpg

highway. The mid-level 4.8-liter gets 14 mpg city and 19 mpg highway.

All three engines are mated to fivespeed automatic transmissions that include manual-shift capability. Base models tow up to 3,500 pounds.

Commanders with the mid-level V-8 can tow 6,500 pounds, and Hemiequipped models can tow a whopping 7,200 pounds.

Inside, the Commander sports a two-tone instrument panel featuring large, round gauges that are extremely intuitive and easy to use.

Options for this otherwise well-

equipped vehicle include rain-sensing wipers, SmartBeam adaptive headlamps, heated power seats, a wireless hands-free cell phone communication system, and a Boston Acoustics stereo with Sirius Satellite Radio. The top Limited model includes a conventional sunroof and twin skylights over second row seats.

Four adults can ride in comfort in the first two rows of seats. The Commander’s smaller third-row seats can accommodate children.

Both the second- and third-row seats can be folded down when not in use.

Rugged SUV perfect for navigating steep mountain passes.

But when the third-row seats are in place, only a portion of the rear winshield is visible.

An important safety feature unique to the Commander is its electronic roll mitigation, which uses multiple sensors to selectively deploy optional side-curtain airbags in both single-vehicle rollover collisions and side-impact crashes. Other safety features include the standard Electronic Stability Program, traction control, and antilock brakes, all of which work in tandem to maintain traction in varying conditions.

If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for a retro-styled, full-sized vehicle to navigate a bumpy back road or to climb a steep mountain pass, the Commander certainly fits the bill. â?&#x2018; To find out more about the Jeep Commander, call: â&#x20AC;˘ Crestmont Chrysler Jeep, 216-831-2100

ant to know the secret of how Jack’s Deli manages to make its delicious matzah-ball soup or its melt-in-your mouth blintzes?

“There’s a trick to make them right, but I can’t tell you what it is, or I’d have to kill you,” says the playful Alvie Markowitz with a wink. He is partnered with Gary Lebowitz of the newly named Alvie & Gary’s Jack’s Deli.

Markowitz, son of the delicatessen’s namesake, and his partner are as proud of their deli as new parents of their offspring. In fact, they say, their new location, around the corner from their original site at Cedar and South Green Roads, offers customers a great many more amenities.

Construction was completed eight months ago, and the two partners claim that the design is a radical departure for a delicatessen. “All other deli businesses have the counter in the front and the kitchen in the back,” says Lebowitz. “We brought the kitchen out to the deli counter.” Adds Markowitz: “This was my dream: an open kitchen to show people the cleanliness of the restaurant.”

The biggest draw, agree both partners, is the homestyle cooking. All of their soups, salads, blintzes and potato pancakes are prepared fresh on site.

An expediter makes it possible for a bowl of hot soup to arrive at the table at the same time as a cold sandwich. “Alvie’s wife (Kathy) is the expediter,” says Lebowitz, “and my wife (Andrea) is the bookkeeper.”

Both partners bring more than their spouses to their business. They have both amassed a sizable amount of deli business acumen since their youth, when they began their careers.

“I worked at Corky & Lenny’s and got my training there,” explains Markowitz, who is married to Lenny’s daughter.

Lebowitz gained experience at Irv’s Deli on Coventry and was the deli manager at Sand’s Deli. A certified journeyman with the local baker’s union, he also worked with Orlando Bakery and came to Jack’s Deli as a counterman.

When Jack Markowitz elected to retire, his son sought out a partner to help him with his enterprise.

His obvious selection was Lebowitz, who became a partner in 1996.
