Give Your Garbage Disposal Some TLC Why: Waste particles collecting on your blades and inside the drain can get stinky or even clog your disposal. How: Pour a cup of vinegar into an ice cube tray and freeze it, then throw all the vinegar cubes into the disposal and turn it on. The cubes scrub the blades and drain, while the vinegar dissolves the scum. When: Two or three times a year.
In upstairs hallway... Basic steps: Decide where you want your photo wall. “Because they do tend to look busy, I like to locate them in more private spaces, such as a hallway or bedroom,” says Mughannam. Next decide whether you want a grid or an asymmetrical display. No matter which you choose, Mughannam says uniting the pictures through a common element will give them a sense of order. That common element could be photograph color, frame color or image size. For example, you could have a lot of photos of different sizes together on a wall if they are all black and white.
Project: Create a family photo wall. Why: Crookedly hanging a haphazard collection of random family photos is akin to spreading the contents of your junk drawer across the wall. A little thought can make a photo wall a work of art. Who to hire: Although it’s a project that could lend itself to a DIY weekend, you can get a polished look with the help of an interior designer or a professional art hanger. If you want to resize, reprint or change the color of a large number of photographs, a photography lab can make quick work of it. You might also consider using the services of a professional framer.

Clear clutter in the mudroom. Winter mittens, hats, and boots tend to get forgotten in the mudroom, even after the weather warms. Go through every shelf, cubby and drawer, and put away the things you are no longer using. Clean and polish boots before putting them away, and find your umbrella so it’s handy for those spring showers.
While we’re on the subject of children, kids’ art is some of the most joyous, unconstrained, charming and heartwarming work on the planet. (And it’s really cheap!) It does not have to be framed; just hang it on the wall and enjoy. Your little ones will be absolutely delighted, and will probably deluge you with enough material to keep your walls ever changing and ever vital.
Gladiator also includes options for laundry areas that expand the possibilities of what utilitarian spaces can look like. Its cabinets and other accessories can be installed quickly, using a wall-mounted hanging system, and can be moved easily to other locations where the hanging system is installed. Lower cabinets are on casters, so they can be rolled to new areas. It’s good to see a well-thought-out system that addresses a specific need.
Tired of clogging up counters with devices and marring backsplashes with outlets every few feet? Legrand’s undercabinet system puts outlets, speakers and an iPad holder in arm’s reach under upper cabinets. It’s a thoughtful solution to managing technology.
