Size for starters Theyre small They fit most anywhere Add in design versatility relatively low maintenance a reasonable cost and a range of styles that runs in home decor from lighted crystal versions for new agers to sleek Asian models that drip tranquillity and you should be getting the picture Theres a soothing quality associated with the sound of running water says Derrick Mrozinski Gibsons general manager Creeks waterfalls the ocean its the same thing You know how soothing it is to take a bath? Well its like that without having to go through all the hassle of getting undressed drawing the water and getting into it Mauras fountains begin with high-fire- d stoneware bowls with rich handsome glazes The water softly trickles over seafoam green copper and black slate terraces surrounded by arrangements of Mexican beach pebbles river stones and turquoise-colore- d rocks from India She calls her fountains Zen Rock Water Gardens I think of them as miniature Tibetan mountain waterfalls she says They are very earthy and Zen The (sound of the) water is so soothing and meditative So Zenitative Some of the more innovative fountains are outfitted so that they can bum essential oils Water meets fire Call it aroma therapy Call it a good way to rev down I bum my essential oils to change my mood from work to relaxing says Roxanna Nisson of Flowerdale Nurseries which carries models that bum the oils It helps lift the work mood It helps me leave it behind some are circular othTabletop fountains ers rectangular or square come in just about any style and then some Bowls might be stone ceramic copper brass sculpted concrete or glass Decorations range from ceramic tiles etched glass and sculpted figures to geodes crystals pebbles bamboo coral slate and shells Some hold candles and bum essential oils or are lighted from within to provide an attractive night light Others come with pedestals providing a variety of decorating options New on the market is a hanging antique-styl- e Roman jug fountain A wall of the jug has been artfully removed revealing the fountain ($249 at Gibsons) Simple Asian styles are increasingly popular with buyers and sell for $200 Interior designer Lori Hankins of Elegant Environments in Laguna Niguel Calif points to the bath as one of the more unusual places to put one of the fountains Team it with a little music she says and settling into the tub will never be the same Rate Mmirii OUR TOP PRODUCERS FOR 1997 Continued from Page FI can save you both time and money Interest rates can change quickly Your broker should be flexible and should have good access to the better lenders You also want to work with a broker who stays on top of whats going on in the finance markets You may have one lender in mind when you complete your loan application But by the time die appraisal and all your supporting documentation is in maiket conditions may have changed You want a mortgage broker who has the flexibility and vision to move you into a better loan program if it becomes available The closing: Dont hold out too long for a lower rate Theres no way to know that rates have hit rock bottom until theyre on their way up again WERE A SMALL OFFICE ON PURPOSE!

Arent these showhouses all filled with items that people $10000 chairs and witn average jobs cant afford? Yes and no The major furniture pieces that designers borrow for the event and return are usually very expensive A $10000 bed and $5000 chairs are not considered out of the ordinary But items the designers cannot borrow have to come out of their own pocket And this means they get pretty creative They often find inexpensive solutions for window treatments and wall hangings Or they find new ways to use old things Here are some ideas you can steal from the American Society of Interior Designers Show House in Boca Raton Fla in modem housStacking the deck: es ciy for large-scal- e furnishings but we all know by know that its obviously uncool to use matching side tables on each side of a bed Dale Miller of Daring By Design in Boca Raton and Maura Taft of Maura Taft & Associates in Delray Beach Fla gave the master bedroom creative panache by stacking two Indonesian chests on top of each other to make an end table big enough to balance the size of the bombe chest on the other side of the bed The stacking trick also was used with storage chests from Pier I by Douglas Feldman of Feldman Design Group in Miami in the office Checkmate: Dying for a chess set without spending big bucks? Take a tip from Mary Jane Reeves of MJR Interiors in Boca Raton Her chess pieces are glass vases from Pier 1 Imports silk flowers in different colors represent the varying chesspieces Reeves whipped board herself with particle up the board paint and Contac paper Hip to be square: Feldman created an interesting and inexpensive display above the desk in the home office He alternated cork squares from Home Depot with small black frames from Pottery Bam This is a great way to show off family photos without looking like a cliche treatment Climbing the ladder: Ladders are becoming the trendy way to display magazines and bathroom towels In the bathroom off Feldmans office he used a bamboo ladder ($150) from East Lee Gallery in DCOTA to display towels Reeves also used a ladder to store magazines in the family room A metal version with wheels comes from the Pottery Bam catalog ($6999) Or you can alter the idea by using a wooden ladder and painting it to match the bathroom or family room decor Old filing trick: Hate the look of office filing cabinets? Feldman found a solution by stacking three antique Chinese chests In each he put a metal contraption for holding hanging folders r Vaiancing act: Instead of having a fancy (read expensive) valance fabricated Kevin Loy of Kevin Interiors in Boca Raton used a hemmed strip of matching fabric and attached it with medallions You cant get simpler than that and it works Medallions by the way were everywhere in the showhouse 1 gs High-ceilin- black-and-whi- te ' Ofg - - oy Each Office Is Independently Owned and Operated (801) YEARS)mt 566-441- 1 (Mtfj The professional REALTORS of REMAX ASSOCIATES would like to say THANK YOU to the 826 families we helped relocate and serve in 1997 Through these transactions we raised over $5460 for Childrens Miracle Network and The Primary Childrens Medical Center by individual agent contributions OPEN SATURDAY I1 HOMES FOR SALE WEN fHfrfcM ISM L HARRISON (1170 SO) Choice locoiioni Charming ham ram new roof updated tnuaut Irg mdi bd wletrlfic do el space ne ba 2 cor gar 1199700 Rhoda WEN 130 SOUTH Ibd Troley Regent In 000 IASI U 2bagmalloca-tlo- 1151900 Rebecca dmctop 4044110 TIM ALEXANDER LARRY BAILFSS ANN BALSTERHOLT OKN 003 EM7 1700 SOUTH 1115000 A rare find 7 itory Sugar Houie w2 remodeled bathi 3 bd hoc greoioHeyoccerihgidl low Ihli home Nanette EVA BATH 0KN SATOSUN 2 004-0- CAmGtHU Reduced! 594 No Columbui (1 pami hrdwd Ik me ktt 1 bthi 2 cor gar S4M900 Price East) Fnh 2 bdimi Rama OPEN SAT 2 39430 SUN 12002-0- IMS SO GARY CANNON KEVIN COLE DYVOWSWRE DR ila OWN SO TRACY M (2020 E) 1299999 Use on a go course!
