Top 10 Trees

May14

Leave a Comment Written by Alicia

maple tree

If you own a home with a large yard, consider planting new trees. The advantages of having an array of trees in your yard are abundant. They reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air while producing oxygen and clean air, they provide homes for songbirds and other types of wildlife, they cool your home and yard by blocking sun and they warm your home by blocking harsh winds, and according to Management Information Services, mature trees can increase your property value by up to 20 percent! The beauty of it is, even if you don’t want to be digging in dirt, pulling weeds and watering gardens every other day, with trees, you plant and you’re done! Sure, they might need your watering assistance at first and during dry sprouts, but usually the rain will be adequate enough once the tree grows long roots. Therefore, planting trees is pretty much a win-win situation.

The type of tree you choose to grow in your yard will also decide the care it needs, the appearance it’ll display, the maturity level it’ll reach and more. Here are 10 standard types of trees to get you started on choosing the right tree for your yard:

• Maple trees come in huge variety of options, but they all grow fast and are tolerant in most soils. Eventually, the maples will grow 40 to 75 feet high and spread out 40 to 50 feet, making these ideal shade trees. They also spruce up your yard year-round with spring flower buds, lush summer leaves and bright fall colors.

• Oak trees are available in possibly more types than any other tree, but no matter what type you choose, the tree will grow tall and wide and will make an ideal shade tree. These long-lived trees tend to grow slowly, but that depends on the type you choose. Most grow 60 to 70 feet high and 60 to 70 feet wide. They too portray white flower buds in the spring and bright yellow colors in the fall.

• Dogwood trees are either small and rounded, looking more like a bush, or they are skinny and somewhat tall. They provide flowers and glossy-red fruit popular with birds, they grow in most soils, they portray deep fall colors and they only reach 10 to 25 feet in height and width. These trees work well in smaller yards.

• Crabapple trees radiate eye-catching beauty year-round with abundant clusters of spring flowers buds, and dark green, dense foliage with bright red berries in summer. Wildlife loves these trees, which prefer moist soils but will grow in dry soils. These trees grow six to 20 feet high and wide at a medium speed.

• Cherry trees not only provide abundant shade and colorful spring blossoms, but they also supply you with an abundance of ripe cherries to enjoy all summer long! These trees reach 12 to 35 feet high, and 12 to 25 feet wide. The type of cherries you will consume depends on the type of cherry tree you choose. These grow at a medium speed and in various types of soil.

• Apple trees also provide you with an abundance of ripe, juicy fruit in the early or late autumn months. These trees need plentiful sunshine and water, and they grow quickly. They grow from 10 to 25 feet high and wide, depending on the type you choose. When choosing a type, decide what kind of apple is your favorite!

• Cypress trees are ideal for the southern and western regions, because they are very tolerant to high heat and drought. The yearlong, soft gray-green foliage is ideal for stopping wind and erosion, and they can also be decorated at Christmas time because of their pyramidal, evergreen shape.

• Fir trees are also in the evergreen family, which are ideal trees for yearlong color since they never lose their foliage! These pyramid-shaped trees grow up to 100 feet high and 20 feet wide, depending on the type you choose. They portray silvery blue-green foliage and are tolerant to most soils and drought areas.

• Because pine trees come in so many varieties, you could definitely find one ideal for your location! These evergreen trees are more full and oval-shaped than other types of evergreen, and they grow up to 80 feet high and 40 feet wide, depending on the type you choose. These hardy trees will grow in almost any climate or soil.

• Spruce trees grow more quickly than other types of evergreens, and these pyramidal shaped trees show off long, graceful branches full of dark green needles year-round. They mature up to 75 feet high and 25 feet wide, making them great windbreakers. Spruces are also tolerant to most soils and locations.

For more assistance in choosing a tree that is right for your location, your type of soil and your size yard, visit the Arbor Day Foundation website. After you plant your new trees, on special occasions, you can snap photos next to the blossoming buds or the deep fall colors. In the winter, you can decorate your trees for the holidays. Every day, you can admire the seasonal changes and the increased wildlife from your window or from your outdoor patio. Enjoy!

To get you started, here are a few decorating tips:

  • Mix it up: Today’s decorating isn’t matchy-matchy. You want to mix textures and patterns in similar color schemes to create more visual interest. For examples of how to do this well, check out rooms like this and this!
  • Think of scale: Small pictures on huge walls is a definite don’t. Think about what goes with the size of the space when you’re trying to decorate.

Sure, they can use their imaginations, but you can make it easier for them by depersonalizing. Get rid of the knick-knacks that make your home scream you. Take down your framed degrees. More ideas on depersonalizing are available here.

Prepare Your Yard for Spring

Mar29
2010
1 Comment Written by Alicia

In springtime, while it’s easy to excuse yourself from yard work because of constant rainfalls or annoying allergies, you really should prepare your yard for the season, and for the one to follow, summer. If you wait too long, it could take longer for your grass to appear lush and weed-free, for your gardens to redevelop and for your fruit trees to produce.

And this is never more true than when you’re trying to sell. Now is the time to make your home—and its surroundings—look its best.

Here are steps to keep in mind:

  • Remove anything in your yard that doesn’t belong. That means raking dead, crumbled leaves that reappeared from under melted snow, picking up twigs and branches that snapped off of nearby trees, and disposing of any litter that blew into your yard from unknown sources.
  • Dethatch your lawn by using a rake to get rid of the layer of dead grass that has taken residency over your lawn. This is vital for your grass to receive the natural nutrients needed to grow. Also, if you use fertilizer or weed killer, it will not reach the lawn unless you remove this layer of thatch.
  • Lay a slow-release fertilizer on your lawn. This type of fertilizer will slowly release nutrients in your yard that will not cause the grass to grow before it’s ready. This way, even if Mother Nature decides to cover us with an April snowfall, your lawn will still be slowly working its way toward a green June.
  • Dig your lawn mower out of the shed or the corner of the garage and test it. Check for wear on the spark plugs, sharpen the blade, change the oil if needed, clean out old grass clippings and fill up the gas. If the mower is in need of repair, you have plenty of time to fix it. If not, it’ll be all ready for the first cut.
  • Scale back trees and bushes by trimming back limbs that are damaged or have grown beyond the rest. This will make room for the tree to grow faster and healthier. Keep branches out of your walkway and patio/porch area. Evenly trim bushes to look neatly manicured.
  • Now is the time to plant new foliage in the yard. Spring rain creates soft soil that makes digging as simple as ever. Plant new rose bushes, berry bushes or fruit trees now so that they have time to begin their spring growth.
  • While you should wait to plant and decorate with new perennials, you should pick them out now. Research the types of perennials available, find out which will grow in the sunlight and type of soil available in your yard, and plan a layout.

Spring Clean Your Way to a Sale, Part 2

Mar22
2010
Leave a Comment Written by Alicia

Spring means spring cleaning, especially when you’re selling a home.

Welcome to Part 2 of our series on spring-cleaning suggestions!

  • Depersonalize every room. The winter holidays tend to leave our home’s looking like a giant scrapbook. Enough time has passed to now recycle your saved stash of Hallmark cards, to organize the family photos into a photo album for the shelf and to store the newly framed photos into a box for your next house. You want the house to appear homey, but you also want the potential homebuyers to imagine themselves living there. That’s hard to do when your family and friend’s faces are smiling back at them. Instead, substitute your personal attributes with pictures of your house in other seasons, or with neutral photography or artwork.
  • Clear your kitchen counters of everything and give them a thorough cleaning with eco-friendly cleaners or just vinegar and water. Our kitchens tend to overfill with comfort foods during the winter months that most of us probably wouldn’t mind tossing now that tank top and shorts season is right around the corner! After you clean the counters, clean each individual appliance as you place them back where they belong back. Toss the stale cookies or leftover fruitcake that you just aren’t going to ever eat.
  • Disinfect everything. Using an eco-friendly spray cleaner or anti-bacterial wipes, clean all door handles, sink faucets, light switches, and any object that multiple hands grasp on an average day. Though this isn’t a visually obvious change, it’ll keep you and your family healthier during this potentially stressful time, and it won’t spread the germs of potential homebuyers that walk through your house.
  • Rid your home of all odors. Using a scentless cleaner, spray all of your carpeting, furniture, toys, throw rugs, pillows or anywhere that an odor could easily linger. Give your pets a thorough cleaning, wash all of your bedding and switch all of your towels for new, clean towels. Start taking the garbage out more often. Consider adding air fresheners as long as they don’t cause allergies and are not an overbearing scent.
  • Now that the seasonal work is complete, it’s time to return to the routine of dusting and vacuuming. Keep up with these chores on a weekly basis so that your house looks ready for whenever a potential homebuyer decides to pop in. Lift objects off of shelves and counters instead of dusting around them. Vacuum under objects too. Dust the top of fans and the blinds. Clean surfaces with eco-friendly cleaners. Scrub showers and toilets free of stains, even if they are just water spots. Wash the kitchen table after every meal. Make your house look as spotless as ever!

Not only will these spring cleaning suggestions help to make a positive impression on potential homebuyers, but they will also make your day-to-day living healthier and more pleasant while you wait for a sale. If you’re the type to need an excuse to clean, here it is.

10 Tips for Spring Decorating

Mar19
2010
Leave a Comment Written by Alicia

It’s spring! What does that mean for your decorating?

Out with the old, dark, heavy and dreary, and in with the new, bright, light and cheery!

New seasonal decorating ideas are available every year, but the rule of thumb seems to stay the same, which is that home décor trends tend to follow those of clothing fashion. Therefore, for quick, trendy ideas, visit your favorite clothing shop to spot the fabrics, colors and patterns of this year’s spring line. Or, take advantage of these 10 ideas already laid out for you:

  1. The general idea behind decorating for spring is to rid your interior of access blankets, rugs, wintery decorations and heavy curtains that block the wind. Substitute these items with ample hardwood or tile flooring, vases filled with bright flowers and light, lacey curtains.
  2. Add brightness to every room with at least one pastel-colored accessory. This could include real or artificial flowers, a bright vase, a slipcover, pillow shams, curtains, tablecloths, artwork, picture frames, rugs or anything you prefer!
  3. Incorporate spring scents into your house. While one option is to just open the windows and let the aromas of rain and renewed grass float in, allergies might cause you to choose a different option, such as scented candles and air fresheners. Choose scents like rain, honeysuckle, lilac or lavender.
  4. To avoid allergic reactions to flowers, decorate your stairway railing or fireplace mantel with bundles or tissue paper flowers. These are easy to make, emit an artsy ambiance, come in any color and cause no allergic reactions!
  5. Choose a color scheme for your décor, such as aqua and peach, or yellow, orange and lime green, and then decorate with an abundance of different patterns that match your choice of colors. This Bohemian-style of décor adds visual interest.
  6. Start saving empty water bottles, soda cans or milk cartons to use as planting pots. Stylize these containers with brightly colored stickers, paint or lace. Fill them with dirt and add an assortment of herbs, vegetables or flowers. Place them on windowsills until it is warm enough to replant them outside.
  7. Decorate the outdoors by hanging a colorful spring wreath, an Easter bunny or a brightly colored bow to the outside of your front door. Dig the outdoor furniture out of the shed, clean and place back on the porch. Hang attractive bird houses and feeders in the trees. Hang a spring flag, such as the logo of a baseball team.
  8. Purchase some spring magazines with themes such as gardening, spring cleaning, healthy eating and getting into shape. These magazines tend to display bright, cheery colors that every guest will want to pick up and read.
  9. According to fashion experts, the color for 2010 is turquoise. Use this color liberally to decorate your interior. It pairs well with yellows, browns and pinks. Looking ahead to summer 2010, start decorating now with gold, bronze and other warm, metallic colors.
  10. As far as patterns, fashion experts boldly state that patterns are in, whether they are floral, striped or abstract. Other fashion statements to be seen this spring include oversized bows, sheer and see-through fabrics, futuristic/metallic accessories, leather, metal, military and tribal patterns and more. Basically, anything goes this spring.

According to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, the forecast for real estate this spring is not a bleak one:

“After polling builder communities in North Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Texas and California’s Inland Empire, Ticonderoga Securities Analyst Stephen East says the spring home-selling scene is coming along nicely.

‘The season is indeed under way despite being delayed a bit by bad weather,’ he writes in a client note. What’s more, ‘while the market is benefiting from the tax credit, it is also showing distinct signs of normalizing.‘”

Spring Events: Tampa

tampa

There is no better time to tool around Tampa than during the spring! As always, Buy Owner has the inside scoop on the happenings around town.

• OUTDOOR EVENTS allow you to get out in the sunshine and experience all that Tampa has to offer!

Island Fest: The theme of Island Fest is called “Land, Air & Sea!” Bring everyone together for free airplane rides, youth sailing demonstrations, live entertainment and art/vendor exhibitions! There are also plenty of food and drink stands to keep you going throughout the day. This event takes place on Saturday, April 18.

Taste of New Tampa: The 16th Annual Taste of New Tampa is being held on Sunday, April 19, from 1 to 4 p.m. It’s a Health and Business Expo coupled with the Taste of Local Area Restaurants to raise money for local charities. Local area restaurants come together with the local business and medical professionals to raise money for local children’s charities. On the day of the event, adults pay $15, children over the age of five pay $10 and those five and under are free. Visit NewTampa.org for more info.

Arthritis Walk: There is plenty of time to frolic around Tampa during the spring. But how about participating in a fun event that raises awareness? The Arthritis Walk is taking place at Al Lopez Park in Tampa on Sunday, May 2. Registration begins at 8 a.m. and the walk starts at 9 a.m. You can choose between a one-mile or three-mile walk route. If you can’t make out to the walk, you can still donate to the cause!

• TAMPA SPORTS begin with a bang! Baseball is back! The Tampa Bay Rays had a winning season last year and made it all the way to the World Series. Their upsetting fall to the Philadelphia Phillies should fuel their desire to play hard and get back to the big game this October. The 2008 Rookie of the Year, Evan Longoria, hopes to lead the AL in homeruns and take his team to victory this time around.

And just because the hockey season is over for the Tampa Bay Lightning, it doesn’t mean that the fans have to stop supporting the team! You can always volunteer for the organization or buy some of the latest merchandise.

• CONCERTS abound in Tampa. But this time around, stay out of the huge indoor venues. Get outside and enjoy the music under starry skies. Here are a few shows taking place at outdoor venues in the Tampa area.

Some upcoming concerts include:

  • Katy Perry, April 28, Jannus Landing
  • Tribal Style (reggae), May 6, Skipper’s Smokehouse
  • Gavin Rossdale, May 18, Jannus Landing
  • Grateful Dead Night (tribute band), May 21, Skipper’s Smokehouse

Celebrate spring in Tampa! Get out there and enjoy some fun in the sun.

Incorporate Spring into Your Decor

Apr03

decorating-patio

The drab days of winter are headed out to make room for the bright, green days of spring! Celebrate this time of nature’s rebirth by sprucing up your home’s décor. Even on rainy days you can still enjoy the beauty that is erupting around you. Incorporate the sights and scents of flowers, trees and freshly cut grass by bringing them inside! These new features will lift your spirits and remind you that summer is right around the corner. Here are some decorating ideas to get your creative juices flowing!

Before the redecorating process, participate in a quick spring cleaning. Brush away the winter dust and cobwebs to make the interior brighter and fresher! De-clutter by forming a pile of unneeded items to give to charity or to sell in a future garage sale!

Attempt to create a room with a feng shui personality. A feng shui room displays an open, uncluttered space with balance, positive energies and soft colors. For more information, click here.

Color reappears in the form of blossoming trees, fresh green grass and lush flower petals. Bring this happy energy inside by painting an accent wall in a citrus color or by adding bright throw pillows or a throw rug. Or store your area rug away during the spring and just show off your hardwood or ceramic floor! Hang floral patterns inside frames for the wall or swap a neutral lampshade with a bold patterned shade!

If your outdoor furniture has been stashed away all winter and isn’t quite ready to reaffirm its outdoor placement, bring it inside for now. It’ll add new texture to a room and remind you of upcoming barbecues or pool parties to look forward to!

Spring fills the warm outdoor air with an abundance of fresh scents! Bring these smells indoors with candles or scented plug-ins that remind you of spring. Fall asleep to the calming scent of rain, get ready in the morning to the scent of jasmine and throw together a healthy salad to the scent of lilac or lily of the valley!

Integrate spring into your interior by adding nature accessories. Hang a bird house on your wall, accent house plants with bird feathers, line a mantel with a green vine or keep a vase of vibrant flowers on the dining table. If using fake flowers, fill the vase with colorful pebbles or grass.

Bring the natural elements of the outdoors as close to your interior as possible! If you don’t already have screens on your doors and windows, add them! This will allow you to open your interior to fresh air even during rainstorms and bug disruptions. For the sound of chirping birds, throw some bird seed onto your patio or front porch.

Replace window blinds with thin, pastel-patterned curtains. These curtains still block the light when needed, can easily be opened and will always remind you that the sun is making a comeback!

Introduce crystal and glass vases or silverware to any area for style that attracts the sun! Replace the heavy winter blanket that’s been draped over your couch with a soft, satin sheet and switch the old tablecloth with sheer linen.

Instead of buying new accessories, just move around what you have! Moving a decoration from one room to the other or switching the layout of the furniture can appear as significant as buying a new item. Store some of your furnishings away for a more open, brighter environment.

If you decide to only add one spring attribute, opt to turn a regular mirror into a room’s audacious showpiece! Purchase a mirror with a flat frame and then cover this frame with a vivid, artistic pattern! Every time you look into the mirror, the pattern’s dazzling energy will absorb into you.

Spring into Green!

Apr02
2009
Leave a Comment Written by Alicia

Green for Spring

Warm weather allows the opportunity to make small, inexpensive but significant green changes to your lifestyle. Gladly welcome the spring season by incorporating these green contributions into your everyday living!

Freshen up your interior by opening the windows. This allows fresh air to fill your rooms and, more importantly, it allows the built-up germs and toxins to leave your air. Cleaning supplies, laundry detergents and even bed sheets cans release chemicals that you’re unaware of! Let your interior air out as often as possible.

Spring presents us with longer hours of daylight! Use this gift to its fullest by opening all of the blinds on your windows and doors. Allow natural light to brighten your interior for as long as possible to help save energy.

Spring weather usually remains at an ideal, constant temperature while winter diminishes and summer prepares. It allows us to remain comfortable without needing heat or air. Turn your heat and air-conditioning off. There is no better way to decrease energy usage than by using natural temperatures whenever possible.

When you begin your spring “de-clutter” cleaning, don’t just toss your unwanted goods. Hand items off to charities or plan a garage sale. Better yet, plan a neighborhood garage sale! Socialize with neighbors while putting your unwanted items to good use. This will save landfill waste, help a charity or put a few extra dollars in your pocket.

When it comes time to clean the surfaces of your interior, opt to try green or homemade cleansers that don’t contain dangerous toxins and chemicals. For more information, learn what the top 10 green cleaning supplies are here.

Fully enjoy the sensation of seeing the first tree bud or the first flower bloom. Add more foliage to your yard by planting trees and flowers or creating a vegetable garden (link)! Plants cleanse the air and should also be incorporated into your interior. To find easy-care plants for the outside or inside, click here.

On warm and sunny days, opt to walk or ride a bike instead of driving. Cars emit an obscene amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, making the air we breathe dangerous. Not only is walking and bicycling better for our air quality, but it’s healthy exercise for our bodies!

While you’re walking, head over to your local farmers markets to purchase fresh, locally grown produce! This food naturally contains fewer chemicals than store bought options, and purchasing locally will save the energy of transporting food.

Prepare nutrients for your new and old outdoor foliage by creating a compost pile with your food wastes! Compost piles naturally fertilize and condition the soil with an abundance of nutrients! Do some quick research on the simple steps of composting.

If you haven’t made the change yet, now is a better time than ever. Recycle. Organize a company to pick up your recycled goods or take the materials to a local recycle bin. If a company already picks up recycled goods in your neighborhood, all you need to do is put the right items in the right bins! It’s simpler than ever.

Add a Carport to Your Home

Mar13
2009
3 Comments Written by Alicia

carport

We all know the saying “April showers bring May flowers.” This means that April—spring—can bring severe and unexpected weather, preparing us for the beautiful month of May. In the midst of this season of rainstorms, if you want to protect your car/boat and don’t have the money or expertise to build a garage, opt for a carport that is cheaper and less hassle! A carport still adds extra space and can keep your car or storage material safe from sun, wind, snow, etc. Carports feature multiple building options! Connect the carport to your house to create a new immediate entrance to your home. Build the carport high enough to fit boats, RVs or trucks. Use it as a place for storage, a washer/dryer, a covered patio or anything you desire. The options are endless, and the setup is simple enough for almost any homeowner. Here are some general steps you will need to follow when constructing a carport:

 Check with your local municipality building department for possible regulations, though carports contain less regulations than most additions because they are outdoors. Also, check with a utility company to see if you can dig where wires or pipes might exist.

 Measure the space that you want to build in to help you decide on a design, to make sure it’s compatible with what you want and to determine how much building supplies you’ll need.

 Choose your design from the many available options. It could be as simple as a roof laid over four posts or it could be a fully enclosed space with walls. Decide how tall to make it and if/how to connect it to your house. Also, consider weather conditions for your area. Add more slop to the roof, for example, if it snows.

 Choose building materials to suit that design. Metal or wood are the most popular choices. Advantages of metal are that it’s secure and strong, it’s fire-resistant, it’s easier to install and is easier to maintain. Advantages of wood are that it blends in with the rest of the house and it can incorporate shelving, workbenches, pegboards or anything you want to add.

 Narrow it down even more. If you choose metal, will you use steel or aluminum? What type of wood? The more familiar you are with your options and with what you prefer, the better off you’ll be. Take the time to shop around and watch videos that are available online.

 Purchase a carport kit. With these easy-to-assemble kits, you should have no problem constructing it yourself or with a little help from family, friends or neighbors. From beginning to end, the average construction period is from one day to three days. However, if you are also paving a driveway, that will obviously need to happen first and will take extra time.
