  • Get any picture frame ready to hang: super glue a soda-can tab to the back of a picture frame.
  • Mess-proof recipe cards: put your handwritten recipe cards under a glass pot lid to easily view the recipe while keeping it clean.
  • What's a speedy way to fill holes in a wall? Dab a bit of white (non-gel) toothpaste in the hole. It will harden and dry.
  • Fix a "sticky" can opener: run your can opener over a piece of wax paper as if you were opening a can.
  • No more cloudy glasses: pour 2 tbs. of white vinegar into your dishwasher along with the dishwasher detergent.

Picking Colors For Your Home

by Cindy Wood Realty Group

Picking a color palette for your home isn't always easy. There is a lot of work that goes into moving furniture and then painting every wall. Kerrie Kelly wrote an article titled, "Ask These 7 Questions to Create a Whole House Color Palette," filled with helpful advice that will guide you toward picking the right color palette. Kelly writes,

1. What do you like, and how do you want to feel?

2. What are the elements you can't control?

3. Which rooms can you see from other rooms?

4. Are you ready to commit?

5. Can your choices pass a test?

6. Do you want a different look between upstairs and downstairs?

7. Do you have any neutral nooks?

Spring-Cleaning

by Cindy Wood Realty Group

It's that time of the year...again. It's time to bust out your cleaning supplies, declutter, rearrange your furniture and spruce up your home. Reader's Digest offered some great advice on making spring-cleaning a faster process.

1. Make doormats welcoming - shake, wash and swat them!

2. Clean carpets and upholstery.

3. Finish your floors.

4. Wash walls, cabinets, baseboards and woodwork.

5. Vacuum with intelligence - move big furniture slightly out of the way to get the tough-to-reach spots.

6. Clean ceiling fixtures.

7. Clean your light fixtures.

8. Check your coils.
