ADVICE | MAKE YOUR MOVE

PREPARE FOR THE UNEXPECTED you know how to pack delicate items? What if the truck breaks down or gets into an accident halfway to your new home?

Training is a great preventative measure – when you shop for a mover, find out if and how the drivers and moving people are trained. Ask whether they have a “Plan B” in case of vehicle problems, and what you can do to be prepared as possible when the packing/moving begins.

Of course, there are specialty items that require an unusual level of care – pianos, pool tables, grandfather clocks, artwork, antiques and the like. The money you may save by not hiring a professional mover may end up being spent on repairs if these

CHUCK RESNICK Moving your worldly possessions involves a lot of organization, so it’s smart to expect the unexpected. Some DIY moves go well; others end up stressful because those doing the work don’t anticipate potential glitches.

For example, if you move in the winter and it’s a snowy, slushy day, how do you protect the floors from water/salt damage at both ends? What about getting large items around hard-to-maneuver corners without marking walls?

What if someone gets hurt? Do

large and valuable pieces are not handled correctly. Irreplaceable items may be lost forever.

If you decide to move yourself, give some thought to what might happen along the way and make contingency plans. Be realistic – hiring a professional mover can offer tremendous peace of mind and is money well spent.

HOUSE

by SARA DUCK

Mainstream furniture design has taken an exciting turn lately. Maybe you have noticed it, too. From sculptural lighting and Brutalist-inspired tables to Rothkoinspired designs, decor is getting artsy.

More specifically, Museum of Modern Art worthy! And I must admit I am a huge fan. I think we can all agree that it’s not just about furniture’s function; we want the form to be equally appealing. With art galleries and museums closed, for now, our need to physically connect with art has really changed. Along with adorning our space with literal paintings and pictures, it’s interesting to see that furniture can play a pivotal role, too – the rooms in our homes can become mini art exhibits. We can be the curator of our own spaces, choosing unique furniture and decor pieces that reflect our style and needs, and bring us unending inspiration every time we enter the room.

Sweet r e b m u sl INSPIRATION |

by SARA DUCK

A

ccording to a recent survey by Bed, Bath & Beyond called The Way We Nest, 81 per cent of Canadians who

2

responded said their bed is their happy place, while 73 per cent viewed their bedroom as a sanctuary. Whether your style is cool and colourful or

1

contemporary country, create an inspiring bedroom that will have you pushing the snooze button every morning.

3

Contemporary country “This bedroom is a place you can retreat to for serenity and calm. Now more than ever, people are looking for retreats within their home to find a quiet escape.”

– Designer Jo Alcorn 28 Renters Guide | Aug. 27–Sept. 10, 2021

Furniture:Renard bed. From $2,699. crateandbarrel.ca

“A place where luxury is in the details – sink into soft textures, colour-washed hues and welcoming silhouettes. This bedroom is balanced, personal and blissfully relaxed.”

– Melissa Frail, assistant marketing manager, Crate & Barrel Canada

DR. SHELBY HARRIS

ls eep tips 1. Make sure that the pillows you choose for your bed are conducive to your sleep style. For example, a flatter pillow if you sleep on your stomach, or a more supportive one for your neck if you sleep on your side.

Eclectic and tranquil 4

1

2. Unplugging 30-60 minutes before bed helps your brain set the stage for sleep, thereby enhancing your ability to fall asleep. If you can, make use of your phone’s “do not disturb” function for the night, which will allow for only VIP people in your life to call in case of an emergency.

3. Keep in mind that a cool bedroom is best, ideally in the mid-17s C up to 22 C maximum. It takes a bit of practice to figure out what temperature works best for you and anyone else in your house – a room that’s too warm at night makes it harder for your body to fall and stay asleep. drshelbyharris.com

don’t let your stuff own you Hellen Buttigieg The closets are full. Do you really need to create more storage space or do you need to pare down your stuff?

Top ExcusEs for holding on To cloThing you don’T wEar 1 It will come back in style. Yes, it

will, but the fabric and cut will be slightly different and everyone will be able to tell you have been holding on to it since 1978!

2 It will fit once I lose weight. You may lose weight in different places and it may still not fit. Reward

yourself by buying new clothes instead of wearing your old things.

3 I paid a lot of money for it. And it makes you feel guilty every time you look into your closet and see it hanging there. Let go of the reminder, and the shame.

4 I wore it on my first date, the day I got promoted, etc. Don’t let sentimental items take up valuable space in your closet.

Take a picture and let it go.

5 Someone bought it for me.

They’ll never know, and even if they find out, they’ll understand.

6 It needs repairs. Put a deadline on it and let it go if you miss it.

7 I need it just in case. This is probably the top excuse I hear.

Unless there is a specific reason to hold on to something, let it go.

Hellen Buttigieg, is a Certified Professional Organizer, life coach, TV Host and owner of We Organize U. To contact Hellen or for information on hiring a We Organize U organizing specialist, call 905.829.2219 or e-mail info@WeOrganizeU.com

How is your

elevator EtiquEttE? Jane Herman

You need to take the elevator in your apartment building every day, and there are some huge pet peeves that come along for the ride. Here’s an elevator etiquette refresher.

1. Exit thEn EntEr. Let passengers off before boarding the elevator.

2. whEn to takE thE stairs.

One flight up or two flights down – use the stairs when

5. BE nEighBourly. Generally,

able. This isn’t a hard and fast rule, but it helps keep the flow on a busy elevator.

3. hold thE door! Your neighbours will remember you watching the doors close on them – and not in a good way. Hold the door for others who are running to catch the elevator.

4. kids. If they’re old enough, let them push the button, but don’t let your children play with the panel or light up all the floors like a Christmas tree. That’s no way to impress the neighbours or make friends.

the people on the elevator are your neighbours. There’s no need for awkward silence – but there’s also no need for awkward questions. Don’t confuse friendliness with nosiness.

Now, enjoy the ride!

ADVICE | RENTAL PRO

RENTING VERSUS OWNING FIVE REASONS RENTING IS BETTER ANNE MARSHALL

5. LOWER UTILITY COSTS. Heating

3. ACCESS TO AMENITIES.

Pools, gyms, party rooms and libraries are all fairly common features of upscale modern apartment buildings. In addition, high-density housing is often situated in the heart of the city, close to entertainment and shopping.

Here are five good reasons why renting is preferable to owning.

1. PROPERTY MAINTENANCE.

Shovelling snow, raking autumn leaves, mowing the lawn – outdoor tasks are your landlord, superintendent or management company’s responsibility, unless your lease dictates otherwise.

4. CHEAPER INSURANCE.

2. FIXTURE REPAIR. If your

shower stops running properly, it’s your landlord’s responsibility to call and pay for a plumber.

Unlike homeowners, renters do not have to insure the property – only the contents.

When you get your renters’ insurance, expect to be paying approximately half of what you would if you owned your home.

(or cooling) a larger space than that which you actually occupy is one of the downsides of home ownership. Rental units have more compact floorplans, and in the winter you may even benefit from ambient heat from the apartments around you.

Anne Marshall has lived in New York City, Glasgow (Scotland), Greensboro (NC), Toronto, and somehow ended up back in the fabulous small city of Guelph, where she grew up.

LIfEtImE renter it’s a LIfEstyLE

Kathryn Kusyszyn

To buy or to rent? You may not think it’s anybody’s plan, but being a lifetime renter is actually a great choice. It’s one that’s already a common experience in cities like New York, Miami, Boston and LA, where owning property is beyond most people’s income level and location is more important that homeownership. It’s also catching on with a generation that doesn’t want to be tied down with financial responsibility instead of the financial freedom to move and pursue different opportunities.

It’s hard to fathom for some people. The media is constantly making ownership the most desirable goal, but the reality is, home ownership isn’t for everyone. Conventional wisdom says buy if you can, especially with the current low interest rates, because you build equity. And if you’re young, you need a place to live and to house your children.

When you sell, you’ll be able to afford a nicer home or make a profit and downsize. It all sounds great in theory, however, that theory assumes that you will buy at the best time and sell at the best time, thus maximizing your profits.

Nor does it factor in the costs of inflation, renovations, maintenance and upkeep, property taxes and so on. In some cases, being a lifetime renter is the preferred option. Here are some scenarios where those who could afford to buy still opt to rent, and why.

46 Renters Guide | Aug. 27–Sept. 10, 2021

Young professionals more interested in travel than yard work.

Couples without children who travel a lot often prefer to ditch the gardening obligations, bills and headaches associated with owning a home. Footloose and fancy free, they would rather put their money into an investment portfolio. Let the landlord deal with utilities and upkeep. They’re off on adventures!

Entrepreneurs running a business. They frequently work long hours and struggle to find time for family and friends, never mind house repairs or tenants. Any extra funds they have are being put into building the business, therefore owning a home is not a priority.

People in careers that are planning to transition in the next three to five years. If they own a home they may be stuck selling during a down market but have little choice in the matter since it their time to move on. Being a renter makes it easier to pick up and leave when they need to, and practically speaking, their time and energy are focused on their careers.

Families with small children or

caring for elderly family members may simply not have the time that home-owning requires. They are choosing the priority of family, and that is certainly a full-time job in and of itself. Giving a rent check and then forgetting about it for 30 days is infinitely easier to manage than the responsibility of home-owning.

One of the added benefits of being a lifetime renter in provinces with rent control – your cost of living doesn’t rise at the same rate as inflation. If you keep the same apartment, your rent can only go up by small increments, after 10, 15, 20 years, you’ll find your rent will be greatly under the market rent values in a high-demand area.

If you match any of these scenarios, you will likely enjoy being a lifetime renter.

Use a damp cloth or wet pillowcase (reuse old pillowcases!) to wipe ceiling fans that have accumulated cobwebs and dust during the winter. If you’re unable to reach the blades this way, try using a microfibre duster with a large extension pole for hard-to- reach places.

Bring area rugs outside on a dry day and beat them with a broom to remove dirt, lint and debris.

Spray the rugs outside with a natural carpet deodorizer to refresh them and let them air dry.

After bringing them back inside, vacuum rugs thoroughly.

Hack #4 - Linens and curtains

Hack #2 - chandelier and ceiling fan lights

Take the glass light bulb covers off ceiling fans and chandeliers and stick them in the dishwasher.

They come out sparkling clean, and it’s less work for your tired hands.

It’s a good idea to freshen up pillows, blankets, comforters and even curtains as they have likely accumulated dust and odours. For a quick refresh, gather and hang linens and curtains outside on a clothesline. For a deeper clean, you may want to throw them into

the washing machine if the tag indicates it’s safe to do so, then hang them outside. This is both eco-friendly and economical.

Hack #5 - Walls

Fill your sink with a natural, general purpose cleaner such as water and vinegar. Dip your very clean mop into the sink, remove all excess solution, and then mop your walls.

This will remove most stains with ease! No rinsing is required, if you keep the mop dry enough.
