I was impressed by Chip Wade’s butler’s pantry, which you featured in September’s “Chip Off Duty” house tour. The blue cabinets and walnut backsplash make a fabulous combination, and that herringbone pattern is so cool! I love everything about this space. —Kelli Fowler, Tampa, FL Thanks for the moving tips in your July/August issue [“Trade Secrets From the Pros: Movers Tell All”]. It brought back memories of the times I’ve moved over the years. An extra piece of advice: Put chargers and good-to-have-handy tools, like pliers, in a box. Make that box the last thing on the truck so it can be taken off first at your new home since it holds stuff you’ll probably need right away. —Charlie Kohl, Pen Argyl, PA . What a fun idea to turn…

I’m not tin! Foil for cigarette and some candy packaging used to be made of tin, and the name tinfoil stuck. But by the time household foil debuted in 1947, most foil was made of aluminum, a lighter, less expensive material. . You can recycle me. Like aluminum cans, aluminum foil is fully recyclable. To make sure your local recycling center accepts it (some don’t), check iwanttoberecycled.org. If yours does, rinse off any food, then toss the foil in your recycling bin— but keep in mind some centers prefer it flat, not crumpled in a ball. . Unroll me easier. On most boxes of foil, both ends have perforated tabs, which you can push in toward the center of the box to hold the roll in place as you rip…

impatient pink BY SHERWIN-WILLIAMS . “Hot pink and soft pinks don’t do it for me, but this bubble gum shade totally hits the sweet spot. Anything I put on the shelves instantly pops, and it plays up the chair’s pink piping.” . —Avery Roberts, homeowner, Raleigh, NC . night tide BY RUST-OLEUM “This chameleon color shifts from midnight blue to cornflower as the light changes. It turned a $25 thrift store find into the star of my guest room.

love that cabinet color! Shenandoah Valley by Glidden “Originally the plan was to glaze these maple cabinets. When that turned out to be too pricey, we decided to paint them this watery green.

exterior Tall oak trees shade the 1950s post-and-beam house, which is clad in old-growth redwood. For hits of color, Isa hung metal barn stars spray-painted blue (Lagoon by Rust-Oleum) on the balcony, and painted the front door tart lime (Eccentric Lime by Benjamin Moore). “Painting your front door is supposedly the fastest way to transform the look of your house—and I believe it,” says Isa. “It only took me an hour!” nestled on a secluded street lined with decades-old sycamore and oak trees, Isa and Darryl Eaton’s 1958 creekside home in Santa Barbara, CA, seems more forest-y than suburban. That tucked-away, storybook feel is what sold the couple on the 3,250-square-foot house back in 2012, despite its trapped-in-time interior. “There was dark redwood paneling in every room,” says Isa. “It…

reader poll results! . Your houseguest unexpectedly arrives with her pet. Do you ask her to take it to a kennel? . 84% No . 16% Yes .
