Inflation makes vinyl siding

look like hero to homeowner:

Tired of the old home-

stead, but tied to it by the’

high cost of today’s new
homes? ‘There is a way you
can have a new-looking
home, but avoid high inter-
est rates and inflated hous. -
ing prices. Don’t move, re-
novate! A smart way to start
is with vinyl siding,

Vinyl siding is one of the
quickest ways to make an
old, wood-sided home look
new. Why vinyl? Because
unlike wood siding, which
requires substantial upkeep,
vinyl is virtually mainte-
nance-free. And, while
aluminum siding initially
costs about the same as

OF course, you want any- .

thing you put on your home
to be as safe as possible,
Metal siding will conduct
electricity and must be
grounded by an electrician
in some areas of the coun-
try. It also magnifies therat-
a-tat sounds of rain and
hail. But, vinyl siding does
not transmit sound nor ¢on-
duct electricity, '

Vinyl siding is alsoa non-
conductor of heat ad cold,

To set off a small dining

in apartments that have that

Decorate with area rugs"

Area rugs are like punctu-
ation marks, only more gla-

mourous. Just as commas BORER RGSS SRREREE BSR

and periods work in senten-
ces, rugs help define and
make sense of furniture ar-
rangements, However, in
addition to their practical
usefulness, they should be-
come excitingly interesting
as well,

Today’s area rugs are all

over the place, creating -

islands of soft comfort on
vinyl, tile or wood floors, or
on top of plain wall-to-wall
carpeting.

Whatever floor you have,
itcan be emphasized with an
accent rug. A stroke of
boldness heightens the ap-
peal of the entryway or foy-
er. A large shagay circle of
color in the center of a con-
versation grouping sets il
apart from thejrest of the
room. When every inch
within a room must count,
as in many round-the-clock
rooms, one small but bril-
liant show of rug color will

define dining, music or

study area. Beside the bed,
Tugs can provide soothing
comfort under bare feet.
And, of course, hearths and
rugs were really made for
each other.

The colors, textures and
designs of area rugs today
make them truly small
gems. Without a rug, a
room can fall very flat.
