A Supplement to

February 2010

Dramatically update your kitchen in six hours or less with six projects
With the amount of time you spend in
your kitchen, why settle for out-of-date fea-
tures and decor - especially since it is easy
to give your kitchen a 180-degree make-
over? Try these six simple projects, and in
no time at all you’ll have a kitchen where
you will want to spend more time.
Home sweet kitchen
One of the easiest ways to make your
kitchen feel warm and inviting is with up-
dated lighting. And, luckily it can be an
easy and quick project with the many con-
version kits and lighting fixtures available
today. Start by swapping any cold and un-
stylish fluorescent tube lighting with more
decorative chandeliers or flush-mount light-
ing to flood your kitchen with ambient light.
Next, fill in shadowy areas - or highlight
objects you admire - with spot lights, such
as recessed cans or dangling pendant lamps.
Soon your kitchen - and your mood - will
be glowing.
Time: Two to six hours depending on the
number of fixtures.
Update your sink with an eco-friendly
faucet
When it comes to your kitchen faucet,
you may think - it’s not broke, why fix it?
But as a workhorse and focal point of your
kitchen, that shouldn’t be the case. Instead,
update your faucet with a functional, styl-
ish and environmentally friendly model.
Available at Lowe’s, options such as Ana-
belle or Dorsey Eco-Performance kitchen
faucets from Moen offer pullout/pulldown
functionality with three unique settings -
eco-performance stream or spray for tasks
like washing dishes that require a constant,
yet low-water flow, or a full-flow option
when filling a pot or pitcher. This simple
kitchen update can yield up to a 32 percent
water savings - while also adding exqui-
site styling in to your kitchen. For more
information about the Anabelle or Dorsey
Eco-Performance faucets from Moen, visit
moen.com or call (800) BUY-MOEN (800-
289-6636).
Time: Ninety minutes.
Shortage of storage
With so many gadgets, appliances and,
don’t forget food, kitchen storage can
quickly become sparse. Start by organizing
your current storage, purging any items that
you haven’t used in years. Next, if you have
room, add a kitchen island or additional
cabinets to provide more storage and work
room. Or, if space or cash is limited, search
your local flea market or online at Craig-
slist.com for alternative options, like a vin-
tage china cabinet or an antique overhead
pot rack to house all your necessities and
reduce clutter.
Time: Six hours.
Add sass with a backsplash
Tired of cleaning food or grease splashes
from your kitchen walls? Spruce up drab or
dirty-looking kitchen walls with a dynamic
backsplash on walls near the sink or stove
top. Hundreds of styles, textures and pat-
terns can increase the sophistication in your
kitchen and make it easier to clean. Plus,
with step-by-step video instructions on how
to apply the tiles available at Lowe’s Cre-
ative Ideas Web site it’s as easy as one, two,
three.
Time: Six hours.
Getting a new grip on cabinets
Over time, cabinets made of wood or
metal materials can deteriorate if they’re
not properly maintained, making your
kitchen look run-down or aged. Cleaning
your cabinets with soap and water, then pol-
ishing, is the best way to make them look
new again. To combat grime, fingerprints
and other messy substances, apply cabinet
cleaner such as Liquid Gold to a cloth and
buff cabinets until they shine. Replacing old
handles and hardware on your cabinets with
a new stylish design and finish to match
your new faucet will add the final polished
look to your kitchen.
Time: Two to five hours depending on
the number of cabinets.
Advance the technology
Don’t limit your technology to your
phone and your TV - transform your kitch-
en with innovative appliances. Whether it’s
a microwave that fits in a drawer, a refrig-
erator with a TV, an oven that you can pro-
gram or a customized wine and beverage
cooler, adding new upscale appliances can
take enjoyment in your kitchen to a whole
new level. However, if these high-end ap-
pliances are out of your budget, upgrade
your current appliances with new energy-
efficient models in the latest finishes.
Time: Two hours shopping plus waiting
on deliveries.
In no time at all you can easily turn your
kitchen from drab to fab with just a few
simple projects.

Top 10 kitchen and bath trends for 2010
Does your kitchen or bathroom look
like it’s stuck in a time warp? Then it
might be time to update the most-used
rooms in your home. For inspiration,
look no further than the National Kitch-
en and Bath Association (NKBA), which
recently shared its top 2010 kitchen and
bath trends.
To compile the findings and deter-
mine the latest kitchen and bath trends,
the organization surveyed those mem-
bers who designed a kitchen or bath-
room during the last quarter of 2009.
According to NKBA, the top 10 trends
for 2010 are:
1. Shaker style kitchen design
2. Maple and alder cabinetry finishes
3. Quartz countertops
4. Pull-down/pull-out kitchen
faucets
5. Polished chrome finishes
6. Under-counter refrigerator
drawers
7. Dishwasher drawers for
small loads
8. Marble vanity tops

9. Integrated sink tops, drop-in

10. Bronze and stainless steel

Making a big statement throughout
the kitchen in 2010 is the addition of
functional drawer appliances. One such
example, which has been specified by
nearly a third of NKBA’s kitchen de-
signers, is modern refrigeration technol-

The land of make-believe:

Creating playful kids’ rooms on a budget
(ARA) - Most parents can relate: Redecorating your
child’s room often turns out to be far more challenging than
freshening up the decor in other areas of your home. After
all, kids have their own personalities and tastes - and what
you like might not mesh with their ideas of the world’s cool-
est bedrooms.
Obviously, as parents, we want the best for our kids but
we also need to be budget-conscious these days. And, redec-
orating projects often spiral into endeavors that gobble up not
only your budget but also your sanity. Often, what started out
as a fun redecorating project can quickly turn into an over-
whelming task that everyone in the family dreads finishing.
But, if you do it right and with some thoughtful pre-plan-
ning, redecorating kid spaces doesn’t have to be draining to
your bank account or your patience, notes Donna Schroeder,
Dutch Boy color marketing and design manager.
“There are a few basic decorating foundations that can
have a huge impact on a child’s room, with color being at
the forefront,” Schroeder says. “Aside from floors and win-
dow treatments, the largest area where color is used is on the
walls. Luckily for parents, painting their child’s room is a
fun, easy and very inexpensive way to update a living space.
It’s also a great way to involve your child in the decision
process so they can help create a memorable space to call
their own.”
When choosing paint, a little forethought and some fun-
damental knowledge on color selection are all that’s need-

2010 color decor and design trends:
influenced by life’s richness
Indicators are implying that the U.S.
economy is finally showing some signs of
improvement. The markets are rising, and
overall consumer confidence goes up every
day. To the relief of people across the coun-
try, one area that is at last seeing some light at
the end of the tunnel is the housing market.
As the economy stabilizes, homeowners
are expected to begin investing more money
into their homes, particularly the aesthetics
of their homes. But the recession did have
a profound impact on the manner in which
people approach design and decor.
In economically prosperous times, design
and color trends tend to be heavily influenced
by tangible, worldly items that are created
or manufactured by people and businesses.
These items represent the more affluent life-
styles we enjoy during those times.
Correspondingly, during more difficult
time periods, design influence returns to ho-
listic, spiritual and simplistic elements that
represent the richness of life that abounds in
nature, relationships and spirituality.
This year’s color trends are rooted in that
richness, says Dutch Boy Color Marketing
and Design Manager Donna Schroeder.

... brought indoors. Purists are concerned
about their impact on the world and care
deeply about finding balance. Purist colors
are natural shades of herbal teas, the stones
in the river as the water rushes over them,
and the yellow-green of buds as they push
up through the springtime earth.
Colors in the Purist palette include: Ur-
ban Nature, Naturalist Stone, Lemon Balm,
Gingered Root, Catalyst Steel, Natural Can-
vas, Repurposed and Budding Fern.
Seeker
Seeker goes beyond the ordinary to
showcase shades brought forth by history
and architecture. Rich, complex hues give
this color personality rooms that have a care-
fully curated, beautifully symbolic touch.
What matters to a Seeker is creating mean-
ing, spirituality and beauty in life. Colorful
objects made of precise, hexagonal tiles to
stylized, architectural furniture are quintes-
sential to the Seeker.
Colors in the Seeker palette include: An-
tique Rosewood, Medieval Cloverleaf, Olde
Stone, Soul-Quenching, Alabaster Frame,
Kimono Red, Crossing Midnight and Ca-
thedral Gray.
Muse
Muse is a palette that’s all about feel-
ing and experiencing. These are colors that
swaddle and soothe the soul. It’s a color
style that reflects the need for sanctuary.
Attention to design detail and just the right
sensory colors bring Muse to life. This pal-
ette is infused with, and inspires, rich de-
tails, fine fabrics and soft twilight shades of
blush pinks, rosy peach and lilac.
Colors in the Muse palette include: Quiet
Drizzle, Aroma Garden, Melodious Peach,
Silken Raspberry, Blossomed Lilac, Composed
Bloom, Nightingale’s Song and Meadow Pear.
Storyteller
The Storyteller collection shows off
color that reflects a life well-lived through
traveling and varied interests. Furniture and
colors from afar add a vibrant touch to the
home and bring life to tales from foreign
lands. Everything a Storyteller sees in her
travels inspires her home design and color
choices. The Storyteller is an experiential

Colors in the Storyteller palette include:

�ere’s a reason KSI has

remodeled over 250,000 homes...
When we started getting quotes for our kitchen, we
found the process to be very frustrating. We went to
some of the "bigger" stores, and found it hard to find a
worker to help us or a worker who would listen to what
we wanted. We had driven by KSI several times, but
assumed the "bigger stores" would be cheaper. We were
wrong!! We went to KSI on a Saturday morning and
met with Chris McVicker. We were sold on KSI the
minute we walked out the door. Chris was so easy to
work with. His suggestions on the design of the kitchen
were great! I cannot say enough good things about him.
