Selling the Holiday Spirit
By Alana Lauren
D ecorating sale can be a festive way to enhance its appeal while allowing prospective buyers to envision themselves celebrating in the space. Here are some tips for creating a warm, inviting atmosphere without overwhelming the rooms or obscuring your home’s best features. your home for Christmas when it’s listed for Instead of going overboard with holiday decorations, opt for a minimalistic, elegant approach. Use classic, neutral colours—whites, golds, and silvers—instead of bold reds and greens, which may
distract buyers. A simple wreath on the front door, a tasteful garland on the mantel, or a few strategically placed candles can create a festive feeling without overwhelming the space. Accentuate your home’s best features, like the fireplace or a staircase, with subtle holiday decorations. Avoid blocking windows or important architectural details. If you set up a Christmas tree, make sure it’s proportional to the room size. A smaller tree in a living area might work best so as not to overpower the space, helping potential buyers see the room’s full layout. Soft lighting and cozy scents can help make your home feel warm and inviting. Use a few
battery-operated candles for a gentle glow and consider a holiday scent, such as pine or cinnamon, which can evoke a cozy, nostalgic feeling. Avoid overpowering fragrances, as some buyers may have sensitivities. Steer clear of overly personalized or religious decorations. Aim for a universal, welcoming appeal so that buyers can see themselves celebrating their own traditions in the space. Following these steps can enhance your home’s appeal during the holiday season while maintaining its accessibility to all buyers.

Quick and Easy Bathroom Upgrades By Alana Lauren
R efreshing your renovation. With a few simple updates, you can enhance both its functionality and aesthetics. Here are some quick and easy bathroom upgrades to elevate your space: bathroom doesn’t have to involve a costly or time-consuming
settings, such as massage, full spray, and shampoo rinse, to accommodate every preference. Showerheads with cleaning sprays can also help tackle soap scum and other buildup with ease. For an added touch of luxury, consider a shower filter attachment to reduce impurities like chlorine, leaving skin and hair feeling softer and healthier.
Floating shelves, over-the-toilet racks, or sleek cabinets provide extra space for toiletries and towels without crowding the room. Choose neutral or stylish finishes to blend seamlessly with your bathroom’s design.
Incorporate Accessories
Small details make a big difference. Refresh your space with plush towels, a patterned shower curtain, or decorative soap dispensers. Rugs and mats in complementary colours can tie the look together while adding comfort. These easy upgrades can be completed in just a few hours and require minimal tools or expertise. By focusing on small, impactful changes, you’ll create a polished, functional bathroom that your family and guests will appreciate.
Upgrade Your Faucet
Upgrade Lighting and Mirrors
A sleek, modern faucet instantly improves your bathroom’s look. Choose options with features like pull-down spray wands for easier sink cleaning and spot-resistant finishes to keep your faucet gleaming with minimal maintenance. Faucets and models with built-in drain catchers can add both convenience and accessibility.
Good lighting can make your bathroom feel larger and more inviting. Swap outdated fixtures for modern LED options, which are energy-efficient and provide better illumination. Pair the lighting upgrade with a stylish mirror—options with built-in LED lighting or anti-fog features are both practical and attractive.
Revitalize Your Shower
Add Storage Solutions
Transform your shower experience by installing a multi- functional showerhead. Look for models with multiple spray
Declutter your bathroom with smart storage upgrades.

MAKING A MOVE By Alana Lauren
M oving to a new home is an a daunting task. With proper preparation and organization, you can make the process more manageable and stress- free. Here are some practical tips to help you prepare for a successful move: exciting milestone, but it can also be
PACKING SUPPLIES
UPDATE YOUR INFORMATION
Stock up on boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap, and labels. Use sturdy boxes for heavy items and protective materials for fragile belongings. Don’t forget markers to label boxes clearly with their contents and destination room.
Notify important contacts and service providers of your new address. This includes banks, insurance providers, schools, and the post office. Don’t forget to transfer or cancel utilities, subscriptions, and memberships as needed.
START PACKING EARLY
CREATE A PLAN
CONDUCT A FINAL WALKTHROUGH
Begin packing non-essential items weeks before your move. Pack room by room, and keep related items together to simplify unpacking. Create an “essentials box” with toiletries, snacks, chargers, and important documents for easy access during the transition.
Start by setting a moving date and creating a checklist of tasks to complete. This should include sorting and packing belongings, arranging for movers or rental trucks, and transferring utilities. Having a timeline ensures you stay on track and avoid last-minute stress.
Before leaving your old home, do a final walkthrough to ensure nothing is left behind. Check closets, cabinets, and outdoor spaces for overlooked items. By planning ahead and staying organized, you’ll make your move a seamless and positive experience, setting the stage for a fresh start in your new home.
HIRE PROFESSIONAL MOVERS OR RECRUIT HELP
DECLUTTER
If hiring movers, book them well in advance. Compare quotes and reviews to find a reliable service. Alternatively, enlist family and friends to help, ensuring you have the necessary equipment, like dollies and furniture blankets.
Moving is the perfect opportunity to declutter. Sort your items into categories: keep, donate, sell, or discard. Letting go of items you no longer need can save time and money on packing and reduce clutter in your new home.

ENTRYWAYS AND HALLWAYS
In entryways, the rug should be large enough to accommodate the door opening without obstruction. In hallways, runners should leave a few inches of exposed flooring on all sides for a balanced appearance.
How to Choose the Right Area Rug Size By Alana Lauren
GENERAL TIPS
•Measure First: Always measure your room and furniture placement before purchasing a rug. • Shape Matters: Consider the room’s shape and furniture layout. A rectangular rug suits most spaces, but round or oval rugs work well in unique setups.
S electing the perfect area rug size is crucial for enhancing a room’s aesthetics and functionality. A well- chosen rug anchors your furniture, defines the space, and ties the room together. Here’s a guide to help you make the right choice: LIVING ROOM The size of your rug should complement your seating arrangement. For larger living rooms, a rug that fits all furniture legs creates a cohesive

Sweet and creamy mini peppermint cheesecakes full of holiday flavour. The perfect festive treat to bring to your next Christmas party!
24 / OTM / DEC 2024 24 / OTM / DEC 2024
INGREDIENTS
CRUST: 1-1/2 cups crushed chocolate cookie crumbs or graham cracker crumbs
3 tablespoons butter , melted 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
FILLING: 3/4 cup granulated sugar 16 ounces cream cheese , at room temperature 2 large eggs 1/4 cup sour cream 3 tablespoons heavy cream 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon peppermint extract 20 Hershey’s candy cane kiss candies , chopped
TOPPING: 1 cup heavy cream 2 tablespoons powdered sugar 12 Hershey’s candy cane kiss candies
METHOD
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a cupcake tin by lining with paper liners or a mini cheesecake pan by spraying with cooking spray. In a small bowl, whisk together the cookie crumbs, melted butter and 1 tablespoon sugar. Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of the crumb mixture into each well of the cupcake tin and press down to form a crust. Bake five minutes in the preheated oven, then remove. While the crust is baking, in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the sugar and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, sour cream, three tablespoons of heavy cream, vanilla and peppermint extract until smooth. Gently fold in the chopped candies. Spoon the cheesecake filling into the wells of the muffin tin, filling nearly full. Bake 20-25 minutes, or until they only jiggle slightly when you move the pan. The cheesecakes will dome while cooking and then flatten as they cool. Allow the cheesecakes to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate one hour until chilled. Once they are chilled, beat the heavy cream until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and beat until smooth. Top each cheesecake with a dollop of whipped cream, then place a candy cane kiss on top. Enjoy!

EASY DIY
HOW TO FIX HOLES IN DRYWALL
Repairing holes in drywall is a straightforward task that can restore the smooth, clean look of your walls. Whether you’re dealing with small dents or larger holes, here’s how to tackle the job efficiently:
Small Holes (Nail or Screw Holes)
3. Apply Joint Compound: Spread a thin layer of joint compound over the patch, feathering the edges for a smooth transition. 4. Repeat and Sand: After drying, add additional layers if needed, sanding between applications. Finish with paint.
For minor imperfections like nail or screw holes, you’ll need spackling paste and a putty knife. 1. Clean the Area: Remove any loose debris or paint around the hole. 2. Apply Spackling Paste: Scoop a small amount of paste onto the putty knife and press it into the hole. Smooth it out, ensuring the surface is level with the wall. 3. Let It Dry: Allow the paste to dry completely (refer to the product instructions). 4. Sand and Paint: Lightly sand the area until smooth, then apply matching paint for a seamless finish.
Large Holes (Over 2 Inches)
Larger holes require more robust repairs using a drywall patch or replacement. 1. Cut a Patch: Cut a piece of drywall slightly larger than the hole. 2. Secure the Patch: Attach the patch to wooden support strips inside the hole or use adhesive patches. 3. Apply Joint Compound: Cover the seams with joint tape and apply joint compound. 4. Sand and Paint: Once dry, sand smooth, and finish with paint. By following these steps and using the right materials, you can easily fix drywall holes and restore the look of your walls in no time.
Medium Holes (1-2 Inches)
For slightly larger holes, such as those caused by door handles, you’ll need a patch kit or mesh tape. 1. Prepare the Surface: Clean the edges of the hole and sand away loose materials. 2. Apply Patch or Tape: Cover the hole with a self-adhesive mesh tape or patch.
