5 Tips to Get Your Home Ready For Fall

With the start of autumn less than a week away… here are a few tips to help you prepare.

  1. Checking that windows and doors aren’t producing leaks and drafts is a must for this time of year. You can look for the draft yourself or get your home inspected by a professional. This can make all the difference in creating a cozy home once the temperature drops.
  2. Inspect the roof and clean the gutters. Take a close look at the roof and see if there are any damaged tiles and cracks as well as leaves or debris. Fix what needs to be fixed, and clean your roof in its entirety. And don’t forget to clean the gutters while you’re up there!
  3. Trim, trim, trim. Trees grow and grow during summer, as do the bushes, shrubs, and other plants in your garden. Check them all, and if necessary trim them back — especially trees, since they could be getting too close to power lines or your roof and could damage either of them.
  4. Get ready for power outages. Autumn and winter can bring power outages in certain areas, so it’s better to start preparing now. It’s a good idea to invest in an emergency generator for these situations. If you have one already, check that it’s working properly to avoid any surprises.
  5. Make sure to test home safety devices. Autumn is the time when we start turning on the heating and lighting the fireplace with increasing frequency. So it’s a good idea to replace the batteries in all smoke detectors and carbon monoxide devices you have at home. Test them to make sure they’re working properly.

Health Tip!

If you’re allergic to your cat, dog, budgie or pet piglet, stop suffering the ravages of animal dander: Install an air filter in your home. Keep your pet outside as much as possible and brush him outside of the home to remove loose hair and other allergens. Better yet, ask someone else to do so.


DIY Pumpkin Terracotta Pots

These litlle pots are adorable for your fall decor, or fill them with candy corns and give them away as sweet gifts!

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Terracotta pot and corresponding lid
  • Acrylic paint in cream, orange and brown
  • Adhesive (such as Weldbond)
  • Wooden knobs
  • Coiled floral wire
  • Wire cutters
  • Paint brush
  • Sand paper

And the steps:

  1. Paint your terracotta pots and lids with a rough layer of cream paint. You don’t have to make sure there is complete coverage as you’ll be painting over the cream…this is just for layering for later on in the process!
  2. Once dry, paint your terracotta pots and lids with your orange acrylic paint. You might have to paint a few layers (allowing them to dry in between) to get the coverage you’re looking for.
  3. While your pots are drying, paint your small wooden knobs with brown acrylic paint and let dry.
  4. Once lids, pots and knobs are dry, you’ll want to glue your wooden knob in the middle of the “bottom” of the lid. For this craft we’ll be inverting the terracotta lids to act as actual jar lids. Let that glue dry.
  5. Now comes the fun part! Just like our Distressed Mason Jar Vase, you’re going to want to “rough up” the jar with a little piece of sand paper. I think distressing painted jars always adds fun and character! And because we painted on a cream base first, you’ll see those edges and areas really highlighted.
  6. Last but not least, once the knob is firmly affixed to the top of the lid, cut a length of coiled floral wire and twist around your finger to add a little curly stem to the top of your jar. I simply wrapped the wire around the knob to hold in place.

Chicken Cordon Bleu II

Ingredients:

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
6 slices Swiss cheese
6 slices ham
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon paprika
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup heavy whipping cream


Directions:

  1. Pound chicken breasts if they are too thick. Place a cheese and ham slice on each breast within 1/2 inch of the edges. Fold the edges of the chicken over the filling, and secure with toothpicks. Mix the flour and paprika in a small bowl, and coat the chicken pieces.
  2. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook the chicken until browned on all sides. Add the wine and bouillon. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
  3. Remove the toothpicks, and transfer the breasts to a warm platter. Blend the cornstarch with the cream in a small bowl, and whisk slowly into the skillet. Cook, stirring until thickened, and pour over the chicken. Serve warm.
