Mammograms in Scottsdale Saturday, June 25, 2011!

Good afternoon to all our friends out there.  I just forwarded an email we received from the Home & Design Idea Center in Scottsdale to our mailing list, but I know there are people who out there who are not part of the list. (Surprise, surprise!) Please note that time is of the essence so, for those who are interested or for those who know people who are in need of a mammogram, the mobile mammogram will be at the HDIC on Saturday.     Appointments must be scheduled today!

If you end up going over to the Home  & Design Idea Center on Saturday, take a walk through the building and look at all the neat vignettes set up there. If you're looking to do some sort of home improvement or remodel, you're bound to get some ideas. Make sure to stop by vignette 2068 and ZAP our barcode. We will call you to see how we can help you with your project, AND your name will also be entered in our monthly drawing.

Email We Received From HDIC Is As Follows:  

Home & Design Idea Center visitors and vendors, don't miss the opportunity to care for yourself. A mammogram mobile unit will be at the Home & Design Idea Center on Saturday, June 25 from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. providing mammograms. Most doctors feel that early detection tests for breast cancer save thousands of lives each year, and that many more lives could be saved if more women took advantage of these tests.    

For more information and to book your appointment, call 1-888-233-6121. Mobile mammograms will be provided by the Breast Assured mobile unit. ALL insurance companies are accepted, and should you not have insurance, the fee is only $150.00.   

Please take a moment and forward this to all the women in your life, their lives are worth it.    

You must register by Thursday, June 23, 2011.

Thank You,
Home & Design Idea Center Staff

And the Winner Is....

Randy B. of Glendale is the lucky winner of our Norwex rag this month. He "zapped" the barcode in our vignette at the Home & Design Idea Center last weekend in order to have his name entered into the drawing. Randy, look for the rag in your mailbox within the next couple days.

This past weekend was really active at the HDIC. It makes me think that they've been doing some good advertising because there certainly was no shortage of people. Maybe the people have been passing the word, who knows! Anyhow, we sure enjoyed meeting all kinds of new people and even saw some of our previous customers as well. As always, it was a pleasure.

Mark your calendars for July 9. That's the next MEET THE EXPERTS weekend at HDIC. (In case you don't know, MEET THE EXPERTS is the second weekend of every month.)

Have a super day! Remember, for all your home improvement needs, whether it be kitchen or bath remodel, whole house remodels, additions, landscaping, interior/exterior painting, waterscapes or other, TraVek is only a phone call away (480-367-1171). We look forward to hearing from you. 

What Makes A House A Home?

They say that kitchens and bathrooms are the biggest determining factors in selling a home. Well, if you are staying in your home you need not worry about the features for re-sale. Instead you need to concern yourself with, "Does this kitchen fit my lifestyle?"

Granite countertops alone will not make a kitchen a great. Consider the layout. If you enjoy baking and cooking, are the oven/stove, refrigerator and baking cupboards in close proximity to each other so there is nice work flow? How about the mixer? Do you have room on the counter to pull it out? Where do you roll out pie crusts?

Think of your family. If you have children, is there a place for them to sit and do homework while you putter in the kitchen? Or is there a spot for your spouse to pull up a chair in the corner and visit or read? Is there room for more than one in the kitchen?

How about the bathroom? Do you want it strictly functional, as a place where you can run in and out of the shower? Or would you rather have it as a place you can go to relax in the tub?

There is all this and much more to consider when making your house a home.  Of course we know that when it comes right down to it, a house is made of four walls, and a home is made of love alone, but if you can, why not have a beautiful house to make your home?
