Brenda LyonBack and Better Than Ever

3641 White Mountain Highway, north Conway, nH 03860

Brenda Lyon603-356-7200 x19 • 603-986-1144

[email protected] • JTRealty.com

Brenda Lyon is back with Joy Tarbell Realty after spending five years working on her entrepreneurial skills. Previously a broker with the firm specializing in luxury vacation properties, she has used her expertise to successfully navigate the up and down markets, learning the ins and outs of marketing and selling as a business owner.

On her first day back at Joy Tarbell Realty, Brenda met a couple from Athol, Massachusetts who stopped by the office to inquire about a house for sale. Two days later, Brenda successfully negotiated a contract on their behalf for their dream vacation home. “Brenda’s ability to identify her client’s needs, her VIP service and expertise makes the difference in helping her clients find just the right property and close the transaction in a short amount of time,” commented agency owner, Joy Tarbell.

“After 5 years of being out on my own,” said Lyon, “I can really appreciate the added benefits of having the support of a company like Joy Tarbell Realty—from the high-tech hardware and software support, the co-workers who are real team-players, and the innovative real estate website exposure. I am happy to be back and look forward to putting these tools to work for my clients.” The established Hale’s Location Country Club expert, Lyon plans to branch out to represent other developments with the same level of skill and expertise that’s she brought to her work with Hale’s Location. “Real estate is my life and I want to raise the standards for representing buyers and sellers in our industry. Being #1 in sales would be great, but at the end of the day, getting a referral from a past client is the best.”

Lyon concluded, “There’s just no better place to build a real estate brokerage business than with Joy Tarbell Realty. Joy is an endless source of real estate knowledge and her ranking as a top broker in the Mt Washington Valley makes her a terrific mentor. Many leading agents and brokers have had their start with her. Her agents have moved on to start their own businesses, stayed with her, or—like me—they return!”

Warm up your kitchen with COzY COLORS

continued on page 26

(ARA) - Whether you’re an aspiring top chef, a novice cookie maker or anything in between, the kitchen can serve as the central meeting place for family and friends. Using warm wood colors and accents, while opting for the newest styles, instantly creates a more inviting look for your kitchen. Here are some ways to warm up your kitchen with color.

DeLiCioUS KitCHen CoLorS

So many delicious colors are

available to help you create an inviting mood in your kitchen.

Many of today’s hottest hues are inspired by favorite foods and

pleasant kitchen experiences such as cooking, baking and

entertaining. Examples include today’s popular paprika and cinnamon colors; soothing neutrals such as tarragon and sage; and the deep, rich tones of wine or cherry. These colors, when used in wall coverings, flooring or accessories, can provide a backdrop that sets the tone in your kitchen.

real wood to add a comforting feel to any room. And, since cabinetry is often one of the biggest visual elements in a kitchen, consider cabinetry in a warm color to make a high-impact statement. Many on-trend wood types are available in surprisingly affordable styles from manufacturers of semi-custom cabinetry.

“Today’s semi-custom cabinetry gives homeowners access to some of the most desired wood types including cherry, known for its deep reddish tones, and alder, which can lend a rustic or casual feel to a kitchen,” says Cathy Hitz, brand manager for Diamond Cabinets. “It’s easy to combine these woods with special cabinetry touches, such as turnings and moldings, to create a very comfortable and personalized look for a kitchen.”

Recently Diamond made some of its most popular door styles available in new wood types. For example, the Shiloh door style features a simplistic look and is available in cherry, alder and rustic alder. Another warm look can be created with Montgomery, a venerable favorite shaker/cottage style door, in alder and

rustic alder. These wood types not only provide a cozy look, but their transitional styles can complement a variety of design themes.

REFLECTiVE aCCENTSOffset the warm tones of the wood with the gleam of reflective

accents. One way to add both style and light to the space is to choose decorative glass inserts for the cabinet doors. You can create just about any look you want with glass designs ranging from clear reeded glass with copper metal, to clear antique glass with zinc black patina metal. Textured glass styles are also available with shimmering special effects such as bronzed fabric. And with the popularity of mixed metals, feel free to introduce additional metallic elements such as a copper hood over the range or decorative hardware in contrasting metals.

TEXTuRES aND SPECiaL TOuCHES

Complement the warm design theme by treating the eye to textured surfaces. Use woven

baskets for storage or decorative purposes, add comfy textured pillows to the bar stools and bring in other textured elements in the form of rattan, fabric or pottery. Don’t be afraid to sprinkle in elements of color surprise here and there to keep the space interesting, whether it’s the splash of a lipstick red vase or a family photo framed in a vivid shade of electric blue.

Let your kitchen be a personal palette that reflects your true personality. Warm it up with color, and no one will ever want to leave the room.
