DIY Ideas to Increase Your Home’s Value

Select a TRIM STYLE to Match Your HOME STYLE

The right style of trim can transform a room into a whole new space. A good rule of thumb is to keep the style of trim consistent with your home style and from room to room.

Craftsman

The craftsman home style pairs well with simple, tailored and purposeful doors and minimally ornamented window casings while white, light beige and cream-colored crown molding can create roomier spaces.

Colonial

This home style’s rustic simplicity and rich detail call for interior trim that lends a touch of stately courtliness. Choose multi-piece trim and wider baseboards, wainscoting and crown molding to adorn family room floors, walls and ceilings.

Cape Cod

This practical and quaintly unassuming design can be accented by subtle interior trim such as transom windows and sidelights that surround multi-paneled entry doors, casings for double-hung windows, picture rails and frame walls.

Modern

The clean expansiveness of this home style lends itself to unadorned window and door casings as well as baseboards. You can go minimalist and use trim merely to protect walls and floors. Alternatively, you could rely on trim to create an appealing contrast with the wall colors.

Ranch

Open, informal and inviting, this style needs trim work that flows from room to room. Many styles work, from simple baseboards to more formal trimmed windows and cabinetry in the kitchen, fireplace mantels in the family room and passageway casings.

THE TOP 10 GLAMPING & CAMPING SPOTS AT GEORGIA STATE PARK CAMPGROUNDS

by Cindy Reid

Summer is just around the corner and it’s time to get outside! Why stay in a hotel when you can pitch a tent or enjoy a cozy cabin? Campsites, cabins, lodges and now yurts are found at many of Georgia’s beautiful state parks. The campsites range from tent, trailer, and RV campsites to the more primitive “Pioneer” sites as well as several backcountry campsites that must be reached by hiking.

Single cabins are available at nearly 30 state parks. Ranging from functional to historic, all cabins have heat and air conditioning, and most are equipped with stoves and refrigerators. Far from primitive, many have televisions, screened porches or decks and wood burning fireplaces or stoves. Lodges—with hotel like accommodations—can be found at five different Georgia State Parks. (Visit gastateparks.org/Reservations for availability.)

Glamping in Yurts & Premier Cabins

Camping plus Glamour= Glamping! Glamping has become very popular and bridges the gap between traditional camping and the comforts of home. Balancing comfort with adventure, it’s a fun way to enjoy the great outdoors without roughing it too much.

The Georgia State Park system has embraced the idea and has added the glampers accommodation of choice—the exotic yurt—to six different state parks.

Yurts are the newest addition to the state park system. An enclosed circular structure made of wood and canvas, they have rigid walls, large, screened windows and locking doors. The yurts at the state parks sleep six and are equipped with furniture, electrical outlets, ceiling fans and a small heater. Some even have air conditioning. At the park campgrounds, they feature a deck, picnic table, water spigot and a grill/fire ring outside—a perfect setting for a glamping trip.

In addition to yurts, many parks have “Premier Cabins” and can be considered glamping destinations as well.

With one exception, the campgrounds listed below are all Georgia State Parks, and the distance to each is calculated from Pooler.

So load up the sleeping bags and s’mores and go enjoy the great outdoors!
