By Megan BuergerSpecial to The Washington Post

When designers say, “Bring the outdoors in!” they’re usually referring to plants. But while leafy greens are one way to freshen up a room, they’re not Mother Nature’s only children.

Indoor-outdoor furniture isn’t often recommended to apart-ment dwellers, probably because few apartments can claim an outdoor space. But perhaps it should be. Transitional pieces that can take a beating and work in a variety of spaces are often exactly what urbanites need. “It’s like clothing,” says Nancy M. Colbert,

who works for Design Partners in McLean, Virginia. “When you invest in it, you expect it to weather a few moves.”

And thanks to improved technology, durable materials such as polypropylene or Sunbrella are no longer stiff and waxy. Natural materials such as reclaimed wood have seen a renaissance, and materials such as sea grass and wicker, which were long taboo indoors, are welcome under the right circumstances.

That’s great news for apartment renters, because these materials are nothing if not versatile. If you’re having a last-minute gathering and need extra seating, or fi nd yourself moving into an apartment with a balcony, you won’t have to buy all-new furniture.

Mark Jupiter, a furniture designer in Brooklyn who specializes in working with wood, encourages homeowners to em-brace natural materials interiors. “They make a home feel less stuffy,” he says.

Scents of spring

On one of the recent tem-perate spring evenings, following an enjoyable dinner, I was directed

to the vegetable garden to harvest snow peas, which were hanging heavy on their vines. As I pro-ceeded through the backyard to the garden a cool evening breeze suddenly carried the wonderful

aroma of blooming gardenias. As I took in the agreeable scent I was reminded that at about that spot of the yard a couple weeks earlier I had paused to enjoy the fragrance of blooming ligustrum. Though not nearly as powerful as the gardenia, at that certain spot the smell of the ligustrum had been very notable. As my mind wondered I thought back to the very early part of spring when the fi rst blooms of the Sweet Almond announced the arrival of warmer days to come. Soon after, it was the aroma of Simpson’s Stopper that complimented the small white blooms that fi lled the bush. Next, confederate jasmine, as usual, more than did its part to produce a sweet smell that lasted over a period of a couple weeks.

As I thought back on this I was impressed that these scents, though all slightly different, occurred in such an order as to overlap only slightly, and that almost continually from mid-March to late May something was blooming and giving pleasant scent to celebrate spring’s arrival. Some of these were selected for this very reason — Simpson’s stopper, jasmine and gardenia. For others, like sweet almond that was selected to attract pollinators or

Q:I have a painting I obtained from Anclote Manor, north of Tarpon

Springs. Pictures are attached. Please let me know any details you may have.

C., Internet

A:It appears the signa-ture on your painting

is Ferrante. However, without a fi rst name or initial, it is not possible to identify the artist. Have you examined the back of the picture for notations? Assuming there are no other notations, potential dollar value is in the

decorative or catch-as-catch-can range.

Q:My wife listens to your show here in Ocala and suggested I contact you

regarding this piece of pottery. It was passed down to me, and the family acquired it I believe in the early 1900s. I do not have any background, but in my research and looking on the bottom, there is a faint stamp that says “Weller.” I cannot fi nd another comparable piece of

pottery online. It appears to be a fl ower-pot, maybe 10 inches tall and 12 inches in diameter. I would love to know more. Thanks for any help. K., Internet

A:Weller Pottery is a specifi c category of collector interest. The company

opened in 1872 and was located in

Fultonham, Ohio. They moved to Zanes-ville, Ohio, in 1882 where they continued in business until 1948. The company produced large quantities of decorative pottery in numerous patterns. I was not able to determine the pattern of your jardinière. If the pattern is rare it will affect potential dollar value. I suggest you contact art pottery expert David Rago. The website is www.ragoarts.com. Let us know what you discover.

Q:I have this picture in what looks to be its original frame. It is sealed tight

and as you may be able to see, there is no entrance without destroying the back-side’s seal to get inside. My stepfather died at age 90 in December 2013. I read your column every Saturday and hope you can identify this item or at least direct me to learn how to fi gure it out. Oh, it measures 9 inches high by 10 inches wide, not including the handles.

J.C., Ocala

A:In your photograph, it appears the picture is in a serving tray with

handles at each end. The picture looks

like a print of some type. It should be opened carefully in order to tell what you have. If you like send a photo of what you fi nd and I can fi nish the story.

Q:I have a Singer system, power groom brush, full wide-edge vacuum

cleaner that runs very good. It has a twin turbo power headlight but it is not working. Is this a collectible and do you have any idea how much it is worth? Thank you for your time in this matter.

B.F., Internet

Q:Curiously, there is a narrow window of interest in Singer vacuums in the

secondary market. In order to help you I need a couple of good clear photographs including the model number, etceteras.

“My whole business is based on modern interpre-tations of that raw, natural look.”

A wooden bench, for example, is one piece that comes in handy almost anywhere you stick it. Slide it up next to the foot of a bed or the back of a sofa to use as a makeshift table, or by an entryway as a catch-all piece for bags. Many retailers offer storage benches to keep boots, hats and gloves out of sight. Or, for a more modern look, try Crate and Barrel’s Fiji bench. Although it’s not a true outdoor piece, it’s made from natural materials (handwoven lampakanay rope) and a wooden frame fi nished in matte lacquer, giving it an outdoor feel.

“Reclaimed wood has

been big for a few years now, the newer trend is to mix it with metals, marbles, things that add dimension and surprise,” says April Force Pardoe, of AFP Interiors in Elkridge, Maryland, who says the trend was in full effect at the spring High Point Market. “It’s like nothing is one material anymore.”

The one material Pardoe is not sure about using indoors? Wicker. There are two camps on wicker, she says, and she sides with those who think it can look too traditional, and thus out of place in an apart-ment. She steers clients toward the thick, woven variety. “It’s unexpected, but warm,” she says. Another way to keep the look modern is to look for wicker pieces in clean, stylish silhouettes. The brown Giesel PE wicker

outdoor chairs are a modern spin on the Louis chair that, at just 12 pounds, can easily be moved indoors or outdoors based on the occasion.

Speaking of unexpected, one of Pardoe’s handiest design items for spicing up an interior is a garden stool. The traditional ones — often shaped like plump barrel drums, lacquer-fi n-ished with little cutouts — are rather country-chic, and almost conjure up a grandmother’s home. But garden stools actually hail from ancient China, where they were fashioned out of tree stumps. Today, they’re a go-to accent piece for designers who want to add a heavy dose of color and texture to a stale room, and what’s more, they’re highly functional.

“They’re the opposite of frivolous,” says Jonathan

Yaraghi, who is the creative director of Safavieh, a national furniture store headquar-tered in New York that offers modern interpreta-tions on the traditional piece such as metallic fi nishes. “They can be used almost anywhere as a table or extra seat, and they’re a high-impact design piece. And what I mean by that is they’re a little piece that packs a lot of style.”

Pardoe is also on the garden-stool bandwagon. “I can’t resist them,” she says. “They’re like throw pillows but more function-al, you know? People say if you want to add fl air to your apartment, do so with fun throw pillows, but you can do that with garden stools, too. They have a presence without scream-ing.”

Bret Michaels packs up guitars and bandannasBy Lauren BealeLos Angeles Times (TNS)

Singer-songwriter Bret Michaels has listed his place in a gated Calabasas

community for $3.649 million.

Although the 6,797 square feet of light and bright interiors come across as a family home rather than a hangout for a rock star, the accents include guitars, a grand piano and religious iconography. Built in 2006, the Mediterranean-inspired two-story features vaulted ceilings, formal living and dining rooms, a media room, an offi ce and a family room.

The master suite

contains a sitting area, dual walk-in closets, a balcony, dual bathrooms and a gym for a total of fi ve bedrooms and seven bathrooms.

Michaels, 52, made his mark fronting for the big-hair metal band Poison starting in the early 1980s, and he also has several solo albums. The bandanna-wearing singer and reality actor recently released the song “Girls on Bars” and announced an upcoming solo album, “True Grit.”

He inked the deal on the third of an acre property last year for $3.05 million. Michaels plans to stay in the area, but wanted a bigger spread.

According to DS News, FHFA Director Mel Watt announced the government’s Home Affordable

Refinance Program (HARP) and Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) will be extended

until the end of 2016. HAMP and HARP were first launched in 2009. HARP is a program intended

to help save money by lowering monthly payments for borrowers who are underwater but

are regularly making mortgage payments, while HAMP is targeted toward borrowers who are

delinquent and possibly facing foreclosure by providing them a modification with significantly

reduced monthly payments tied to their income. The participation rates for both programs have

been declining, partly because many borrowers are already participating in one program or

the other, and partly because of recovering house prices. Lenders and sevicers will continue to

approve modifications through HAMP and refinances through HARP until December 31, 2016.

Extending HAMP and HARP through the end of 2016 will provide real relief for borrowers who

continue to face challenges either paying their mortgage or refinancing their loan. According to

Watt, this will be the final extension for FHFA’s participation in HAMP and he anticipates that this

will be the final extension for HARP, adding that neither program was intended to be permanent.

For more information, contact a local Realtor.

Have a safe Memorial Day Weekend and remember our military for “All Gave Some & Some Gave

All”.

Tribune News Service

Years ago I wrote a column about crit-ters like reptiles and rodents climbing

into drain piping systems and ending up in toilets. After that I received lots of letters from homeowners sharing similar experi-ences. I recently stumbled across that long lost pile of letters and thought it would be fun to occasion-ally run some of these sto-ries. So please enjoy Ed’s “Tails from the toilet.”

Dear Ed: Our family had a critter/toilet experience when we lived in the South. Our 4-year-old son

was laughing in the bath-room and yelling that there was a frog in the toilet. Playing along, I entered the

bathroom and to my surprise, there was a real frog in the toilet! My fi rst reaction was to fl ush, but the little suction cups on his feet kept him stuck to the bowl. I fi nally had to catch him with my hands, and I put him outside, screaming all the way! No

doubt its sticky feet could let him easily climb down through the vent pipes.

Ed’s comment: Glad the frog had a happy ending and proved when it comes to toilets, what goes up doesn’t always go down!

Contact master con-tractor/plumber Ed Del Grandeat [email protected]. Always consult local con-tractors and codes.

ligustrum that was selected as a screen material, the scent of bloom was merely an added benefi t.

Thinking ahead, there are more good scents to come as summer ap-proaches. Soon the tea olive will contribute its part to the aroma of the evening breeze. This one is not as powerful as some of the others, so it has been located in close proximity to the patio to take advantage of the scent it offers. As June approaches, the Great Southern Magnolias will come into bloom and with them another great scent will permeate the late spring evening air.

As I mulled over this parade of scents I found it interesting that most of these blooms are white

fl owers, some quite small. In addition to annual fl owers, we have a lot of plants in our yard that contribute color over the seasons, but very little scent. How interesting that in large part it is the plain, white fl owers that carry with them the wonderful aromas that give ambiance to spring and summer evenings.

There are many factors that enter into selection criteria for plants. Land-scape designers often recommend grouping plants into masses to unify design while maximizing visual appeal. Trees planted in groups provide greater cooling than the same number of evenly spaced, isolated trees and are much better protected in high winds. Plants have different water and maintenance needs and should be grouped

appropriately to conserve water and ease mainte-nance needs. Soils, sun/shade, wind protection and maintenance require-ments are all factors that should be considered in plant selection. Many guides on plant selection do not provide much information on scent, yet what a great addition to the yard is a plant that produc-es fragrance in its season.

The layout of a landscape offers a lot to consider and requires some careful thought to arrive at a plant-ing design that maximizes goals while adapting to site conditions. The University of Florida has developed a guide to plant selection and landscape design through the Florida Friendly Landscape Program. Contact your local extension offi ce for details on how you may obtain a copy.

As the close of spring approaches and the heat of the day is retained well

into the evening, it will be a pleasure to remember the cool spring evenings

and the wonderful scents that accompany the arrival of the growing season.

With the weather getting balmy and warm in most parts of the

country, it’s time to fi nally lift up the windows and

let the fresh air in!To create an appealing

environment, one of the key aspects is appealing to the senses. And one of the key senses that can provide long-lasting appeal at home is smell.

Here are my top fi ve scents:1. FRESH LAVENDER: Lavender is a wonderful scent for the home. Place it in gauze spice bags or in open jars.2. EUCALYPTUS: This is a natural plant that packs a powerful aroma.3. ROSEMARY AND MINT: These traditional herbs are wonderful when placed around the home in creative ways.4. FRESH LEMON OR LIME: Citrus scents are fresh, clean and crisp and a wonderful way to add an appealing aroma. Squeeze fresh lemon or lime in water for fl oating candles or freshly cut fl owers, or have them on display.5. SCENTS OF CLEAN BURNING SOY-BASED CANDLES: Soy-based candles are natural, they smell great and come in sumptuous varieties.
