Spruce Up Each Room For Spring

Home furnishings expert Eleanor Kandel suggests a spring refresh without major redecorating. Update windows with lighter continental venetians, repaint doors, and brighten bathrooms with new towels and a colorful shower curtain. Line closet walls with wallpaper, replace mats, lamp shades, and add new book-ends and fixtures. Use cool colors like blue, green, gray, ivory, cream, and oyster to create a space giving a cooler feeling this summer.

In comparing two cities, McGill notes Pittsfield’s advantage as it builds a massive civic and housing program. A new post office, fire and police stations, offices, stores, and 144 two to three bedroom apartments rent around 120 dollars monthly.
