If youre a cooking enthusiast, you might agree that theres nothing more enjoyable than combining your favorite activity with the beautiful summer weather. This year, all that running back and forth between the house and the barbecue could be a thing of the past if you follow the trend and treat yourself to a summer kitchen.

START SMALLAn outdoor kitchen can easily evolve into an investment of several thousand dollars, but it doesnt necessarily have to be that way. With a few essential items, you can create the summer kitchen youve always dreamed of without your wallet suffering.

Start with a good barbecue and a worktop. You can then add other items gradually, depending on your priorities, such as a sink, storage cabinets, refrigerator and pizza oventhe possibilities are endless. Just plan to leave enough space to allow

your outdoor kitchen to grow over the next few summers.

SOME GOLDEN RULES Leave yourself enough

room to move around and to eat. If youre working with a limited amount of space, its best to decrease the dimensions of the kitchen rather than restricting sitting and dining areas. A linear kitchen rather than an L-shaped one is the best way to maximize on space.

Keep in mind that your outdoor kitchen will be exposed to the elements. Prioritize long-lasting materials, which are resistant to sunlight and water, and which are easy to clean. Stone and stainless steel are great options for withstanding the forces of nature.

Before starting your project, make sure you

have easy access to water and electricity, even if you dont plan on using them for the time being.

And once youve planned and built your kitchen, youll be chomping at the bit to gather family and friends together for a cozy homemade outdoor feast!

Summer KitchenMake way for a

This year, turn your dream into reality by building a summer kitchen.

Fidalgo & Whidbey Islands

Does the outside of your home look a little tired and worn out? Here are some really simple tips that will help you give your home a whole new look.

1. Paint your front door a bright color. Nothing is more eye-catching and inviting.

2. Replace the hardware around your front entrance: doorbell, mailbox, locks, etc.

3. Install a door knocker. They come in all sizes and shapes these days and can add a touch of style or whimsy to your door.

4. Give your street number a more up-to-date look. Gone are the days of those ugly metallic stickers on the mailbox.

5. If your house has wooden shutters or moldings around the windows, theres a good chance the paint is peeling. Get out the paintbrushes and think about using this opportunity to change the color.

6. Clean your gutters and replace them if necessary.

7. Buy a new door mat to add style to your home.

8. Replace an old doorstep. In addition to being visually unattractive, dilapidated doorsteps can cause insulation problems.

9. Clean! Use a pressure washer to clean the siding and then wash your windows.

10. Be creative with your decorative lighting. Put up some lanterns, strings of mini-lights (clear Christmas lights) or recessed lights under the steps. Youll be the envy of the neighborhood.

Youll be amazed at how easy it can be to improve the appearance of your home. Who knows, maybe your efforts will inspire your neighbors!

Its Summer! Take advantage of the good weather to beautify your home.
