TESTIMONIAL

We met Nutan at an open house while searching for a home in Toronto. While the house was not exactly what we were looking for, we knew that Nutan was the right person to help us find our new home! Nutan’s extensive knowledge of Toronto and the housing market was just what we needed to help us make an informed decision about our home purchase. She was very patient and really listened and understood what we were looking for. We are very thankful for Nutan’s hard work in helping us find the perfect place in a neighbourhood we love! We would recommend Nutan to anyone looking to buy or sell in Toronto!

When the dishwasher cycle is done, do you have to reach for a towel to dry your dishes? While most dishwashers leave drips on dishes and puddles on your plasticware, GE Appliances is changing the game with industry-first Dry Boost™ technology that provides up to three times better drying performance.

“Dry Boost makes dishes cabinet-ready as soon as the cycle completes, taking some of the chore out of doing the dishes,” says Mike Nerdig, senior commercial director, dishwasher, GE Appliances. “At last, dishes are table or cabinet ready without the hassle of using a dish towel or having drips on the floor.”

IT’S NOT DONE UNTIL IT’S DRY Striking the balance between energy efficiency and perfectly clean and dry results has been a challenge for the dishwasher industry. To solve this problem, the engineers at GE Appliances designed innovative new features, including a dual-wattage heating element and smart algorithms that adjust the heat and time to operate in the drying “sweet spot” for greater efficiency and consistency. Depending on the model, the dishwasher may be vented out via natural convection airflow or incorporate a fan to enhance the drying process. Dry Boost technology is great for items like stadium cups, plasticware, sippy cups or other family favourites. ◆

Life

By CASEY ELOGIO

Tidying Up with Marie Kondo recently debuted its first season on Netflix and within days, it was the topic of every conversation.

In the series, Marie helps families get their homes back in order by teaching them The KonMari Method™, designed to optimize joy. Within the first 10 minutes of watching, you are instantly inspired to apply this method to your entire home.

THE KONMARI METHOD™ SUPPORTS TIDYING BY CATEGORY AND NOT LOCATION. MARIE’S DECLUTTERING CATEGORIES INCLUDES: 1 2 3 4 5

LIFE TRULY BEGINS AFTER YOU HAVE PUT YOUR HOUSE IN ORDER. - MARIE KONDO

Demonstrated multiple times throughout the show, Marie is very patient and never makes anyone feel bad for keeping something or for getting rid of it. She encourages you to hold each item and feel if it sparks joy. If it does, you keep it and if it doesn’t, you donate it and thank it for what it’s brought to your life, even if it taught you that you don’t like items like those.

The tidying process is about checking your priorities and deciding if those items are something you need in your life or not.

Shortly after the show went viral, Thrift stores and various Goodwill locations noticed a large hike in donations.

Although the process of taking everything out and going through each item one by one may seem stressful and overwhelming, you feel lighter and more relaxed once the process is complete. Being able to see everything in your drawer at one quick glance, makes finding things much easier and saves a lot more space. There’s a very therapeutic feeling about taking something no longer being used that takes up space and getting rid of it.

Your home is your shelter from the world and where you can be your truest self. Marie reminds us that tidying is not the final destination, but a tool used to establish the lifestyle you want to live. ◆

ADVANTAGES OF AN ELECTRIC FIREPLACE BELOW A TV: ONE: They come in broader sizes than gas units, meaning that it's easier to balance the size of your fireplace with the size of your TV above. A design tip is to consider the fireplace unit to be a little wider than the TV above, so that your feature wall doesn’t feel top-heavy.

T WO: They are much slimmer than gas fireplaces, so the fireplace wall won’t take up valuable floor space, helpful for smaller sitting rooms.

THREE: The flames operate with or without heat, so you will always be comfortable while watching many hours of TV.

295 Garden Avenue First, find the perfect fireplace. The intense heat of a gas fireplace can damage our electronics and TVs. The alternative is to go with an electric fireplace. Since there's no combustion inside an electric fireplace, they don't heat up the wall around or above the fireplace.

So you can mount the TV much closer to the top of the fireplace with no worries of damage.

FOUR: They typically offer much quieter fans than many gas counterparts. This means that you can run the heater and hear the TV in comfort without turning up volume.

Once you've selected the fireplace and TV, you're onto finishing the overall wall design. Today, Stone is a very popular finish for many fireplace walls. To incorporate that with a TV can be challenging, due to the uneven surface. A quick installation tip is to have a cabinet-maker create a box for the TV, then bring the stone up over the edges of that box. This keeps the focus on the beautiful stone, while also leaving a smooth surface to mount the TV. ◆
