WINTERIZE YOUR HOME BEFORE YOU LEAVE FOR SUNNY WINTERS

Creative Living 93 Digestsize.indd 3

10/21/22 1:21 AM


A

s more and more baby boomers retire, many of them flock south for winters. Often called snowbirds, they like flying to a sunny, warm climate where they won’t need to shovel the snow off the sidewalk or face a car battery than won’t crank. However, before taking off for your winter destination, ensuring your home is properly winterized will make sure your return in the spring doesn’t bring any unpleasant surprises.

PROTECTION FIRST The most important thing to do before packing your sunhat and swimsuit is to ensure your home is safe and that all the doors and windows are locked. You may also want to inform neighbors that you will be gone, leave a set of keys with a trusted friend or relative in case there are problems that arise, and periodically check on your home. If you live in a suburb or have a homeowner’s association, letting someone know your home will be vacant will keep them from sending in the fire department to check on your safety. It’s also a good idea to place timers on lamps at various locations so it looks like someone is still home. For extra peace of mind, put valuables into a safe deposit box and install a video system that helps you keep an eye on your house using your smartphone.

PREVENT WATER DAMAGE After that, protecting your home from the cold is paramount. The concern is always around pipes that can freeze or break and do thousands in damage. Turning water off at the main line or at your utility box is a good way to ensure that pipes don’t have water running. Once the water has been shut off, turn on all the water faucets both indoors and out to drain all the water remaining in the lines. Don’t overlook the washing machine. Turn the faucet off and be sure to drain any residual water in the washer’s water lines.

DISENGAGE Indoors, set your thermostat to a temperature that will prevent the house from freezing so that your belongings don’t get too cold or damp. It’s also a good idea to unplug the hot water heater or to turn the gas off. If you have time, drain the water from your water heater. Be sure to call a plumber if any of these tasks are unclear or you are unsure about how to turn the water off or to cut the electric or gas off to your water heater. Go through the house and unplug your appliances so they won’t be damaged if there is a power outage, storm or power surge while you are way. Be sure to clean out your pantry of any packaged items and clear out the refrigerator. Clean the refrigerator thoroughly and prop the door open so it doesn’t develop mold while you’re away. Check and seal all the flues and openings, like the dryer vent, attic vents and the fireplace. Look for any holes in the roof or siding to prevent rodents from taking up residence while you’re away. With all this behind you, you’ll come home refreshed and ready to enjoy your spring and summer in your home that’s in the same shape you left it.

HOW TO

SELECT EXTERIOR HOUSE PAINT COLORS

Creative Living 93 Digestsize.indd 1

10/21/22 1:21 AM


G

iving your home a new coat of paint can make it look refreshed and renewed, but the problem is never deciding to paint, it’s usually around trying to decide which colors to go with. Following a few guidelines will help you select an exterior paint color that looks terrific for your home. COORDINATED When selecting colors, it’s always best to try to find colors that will work well with your home using the home as your guide. Starting points will include colors that are already in the house, such as from the brick or stone if you have any on your house, or from the roof. A home’s roof color, especially if it’s a composite type roof, it will have a variety of colors that make it read like one solid color, such as taupe, but you may be able to draw off of the variations in the roofing to help you define your color palette. HOUSE STYLE Yet another option for selecting colors is to choose based on the style of home. There are certain color standards for various styles of homes, such as a Colonial or Craftsman. Victorian and modern homes also have their own color styles, so looking online at homes that are similar to your home’s style is a helpful way for choosing a paint palette. You may also want to select your house color using regional influences. If your home is located near the shore or the coast, colors that reflect a seaside feel will look

appropriate. A house in the desert Southwest will always look better with a color palette that looks right for the region versus the palette for a house on Cape Cod. Most paint manufacturers have paint color palettes that can be used by region or by style of home that help with your color selection. WHICH COLORS? Start your color search by determining your main house color, which is called the field color. If you want your home to draw you in, or if you feel the house sits too close to the street, try a field color that is darker so that the house recedes. If the house feels too far away or it’s surrounded by trees, a lighter shade will help brighten it up and keeping it from fading into the background. By the same token, small houses will look smaller with dark colors and will seem larger and have more presence with a lighter shade.

A large home can handle dark colors more easily than a small one. Once the field color is chosen, then the trim and accent colors come next. COLOR COMMITMENT Before making your color selections, be sure to check color palettes from your local paint dealer. They often have a variety of options, and some have smartphone apps that will let you see how your house would look with various colors. If you can’t leave your home, check your local store’s website for paint samples and supplies. Places such as Lowe’s and Home Depot even have painting tutorial videos for novice painters. Once you’ve done all the research and narrowed down your choices, it’s still a good idea to order those samples and paint a small section of your home first to ensure that the colors are exactly right before making the investment in paint.

GIVE YOUR HOME A

THANKSGIVING MAKEOVER

A

fter the Halloween decorations have come down, but before the Christmas ones are up, think about dressing up your home for Thanksgiving. Although it’s a “tweener” holiday, there’s no reason it can’t create a warm, inviting mood that puts guests at ease before Hanukkah, Christmas and New Year’s Eve roll around. Better still, it shows your guests how grateful you are to have them at your house this Thanksgiving.

INVOLVE EVERYONE By getting the whole family into Thanksgiving decorating, you’ll get everyone into the mood of the holiday before the turkey hits the table. Pull kids into the mix by having them craft some pinecone turkeys. Gather or purchase pinecones and pick out your favorite turkey pattern online for kids to create as place card holders for the table. Have guests go outside to gather branches to place in a vase, then hang simple leaves from the branches with their messages of gratitude. It gets everyone into the thankful spirit – and out of the kitchen while you’re busy.

ALL AROUND

NATURALLY THANKSGIVING

Although guests may tend to hover in the kitchen while you’re the busiest, set up a wine bar in the dining or living room to draw guests out into the rest of the house. Set out a punch bowl for the younger crowd or create a mix-your- owndrink bar with a few select recipes for your guests to make and enjoy themselves. Be sure to add festive touches such as acorns or a small bundle of wheat on the bar. In the living room, set out pumpkins by the hearth as a reminder of the pie you’ll be serving later.

Because the meal takes center stage, play it up by creating a beautiful table setting. Simple gathered bunches of shrubs, natural grasses, sticks and twigs when combined together can transform a plain table to one symbolizing nature’s abundance. If you have a magnolia tree, tuck leaves under plates and write in a gold marker to create simple, yet elegant place cards or messages of thanks.

To get everyone in the mood for the dinner ahead, place a chalkboard with a description of the meal on the kitchen counter or in the entryway foyer. If you don’t have a chalkboard, try a simple framed mirror with a stand. Write in the names of all your dishes in erasable marker to make show guests the delights they’ll be enjoying. In the guest bathroom, add some paper guest towels so guests don’t have to re-use a damp towel. Be sure, too, to add a candle with a spicy scent such as cinnamon to create a cozy atmosphere and manage all the heavy use of the bathroom.

Don’t forget the front door. This is the first place your guests see when they come for dinner, so pop in an urn of colorful moms and maybe a pumpkin or two to greet guests.

You can't always do this in an existing home, especially if the ceilings in the room are finished with drywall or plaster. As you tilt the wall up, it binds against the ceiling.

After the gutters are clean, do a water test with a garden hose. Test to see if there are any leaks in the system. There are special caulks meant to seal the seams in aluminum gutters; they’re available online. Be sure the water from downspouts is piped to the lowest part of your yard or, in urban areas, connected to approved storm drains. Water dumping out on the ground next to your foundation on splash blocks is a very bad thing, as the water simply enters the soil next to your home.
