Greetings!

As the school year ends and we head into summer, each family can look forward to new and old traditions. With graduations, holidays and birthdays there are always plenty of celebrations.

Summer entertaining brings lots of visitors and overnight guests. Maybe grandparents are visiting, or a sibling's family who lives far away. This year I (Tina) have a high school reunion but I won't tell you how many years it's been. When you need a reason to finish up projects around the home, or update that bathroom ... why not use an upcoming event like company, to give yourself a deadline?

We've got some great tips for updating your bathroom, both functionally and how to make it look more spacious (hint: use a mirror). Maybe it's time to replace your single door with a new, sliding patio door and you'll enjoy the added sunlight all year long. We've also got safety tips to keep you safe and ideas for how you can prepare for the inevitable storms that seem to be happening a lot more frequently. 

Wishing you great weather and a Happy 4th of July.

PS After giving out several hundred bottles of water to guests on the Bedford NH, Kitchen Tour last weekend, the owner gave me the okay to take photos. Here's my very first video of a gorgeous and inspiring kitchen.

Affordable Small Bathroom Updates


Every home owner has a bathroom that is too small, for one or more reasons. When time and budget permit you to update this room, you'll benefit by taking time to plan out the space in order to create a bathroom that is more functional, with the look and feel you want to create.

Read our tips on updating a small bathroom ...


Bathroom Mirrors, Medicine Cabinets and More

Bathrooms are probably the most complicated room in our homes. They're the smallest rooms yet they pack a lot of punch with functional features we take for granted every day. The name bathroom began with the bathtub although today the definition is used more loosely to embrace bathrooms with showers or half baths that only contain a toilet and sink.

Patio Doors to Special Places

We're lucky to live today with massive amounts of glass that let us enjoy the outdoors year round. Patio doors are unique in the multiple roles they serve. They lead to decks and patios, now commonly called outdoor living space, we can enjoy when the weather permits. Patio doors let us enjoy the same views from indoors and bring lots of sunlight into our homes year round.

Have fun playing exploring different patio door styles ...

Are You Ready for an Emergency at Home?Are You Ready for an Emergency at Home?

These last few years we've had incredibly destructive storms. Depending on where you live, there's been flooding, ice storms, wind storms and more. We never know what challenges we'll face as home owners so it's wise to assemble your "home support team" ahead of time. You'll feel reassured when you know the person you're calling, and home professionals always respond faster to calls from existing customers.
