Remodeling? Shop First at the Habitat for Humanity Restore

February 11, 2017 by Richard Callahan Leave a Comment

Raleigh’s Habitat for Humanity Restore still seems to be a bit of a secret most days.  But there are some days when it’s very crowded and there’s a long line at the checkout with shoppers waiting to pay for things I wish I had discovered first.

The inventory changes daily, so I personally like to shop there several times a week, often leaving empty-handed, but frequently hauling home treasures that add to the beauty and value of my own home.

You can buy new and gently used building materials, home appliances, furniture, light fixtures, cabinetry, flooring, ceiling fans, doors, windows, tile, hinges, doorknobs, windows, all at a fraction of the retail price.  Shopping at a Habitat Restore is rewarding when you happen upon a bargain, but it’s also satisfying knowing that your purchase supports the Habitat for Humanity mission of helping people find decent places to live.

Take a peek at what the Habitat Restore on Raleigh Boulevard has to offer:

My 5 Most Popular Pinterest Pins for January 2017

February 2, 2017 by Richard Callahan Leave a Comment

My 5 most popular pins on Pinterest for January are an interesting combination of real estate, life, and death.

4317 Johnston Busbee Wynd, Raleigh, N.C.No. 1.  My top Pin for January is Olde Raleigh Real Estate’s listing at 4317 Johnston Busbee Wynd in Raleigh, N.C. It’s a beautiful home that is currently under contract. Original source is here at lifeinraleigh.com.

 

 

No. 2  is an article by Karen M. Wyatt, M.D., entitled “How to Have Everyday Conversations About Death and Dying,” originally published in The Huffington Post February 10, 2016. I  believe death is something we need to be more open to talking about as a regular part of living and this is a great article.  Original source here at huffingtonpost.com.

115 Lacoste Lane, Cary, N.C.No. 3 is my listing at 115 Lacoste Lane in Cary, N.C., that sold very shortly after hitting the market.  The real estate market in this area continues to be a hot one! Original source is here at lifeinraleigh.com.

 

 

 

No. 4 is my listing at 602 E. Lane St. in Raleigh, N.C., which was sold, and pinned, many months ago. But Downtown Raleigh and Historic Oakwood are very popular places to live in Raleigh, so it’s no surprise that the Pin of this beautiful historic home remains a favorite. Original source is here at lifeinraleigh.com. 602 E. Lane St., Raleigh, N.C.

No. 5 is a Pin on my “Funny” board showing what our lives are like now that we let ourselves be ruled by our smartphones. “These 40 Cartoons Perfectly Illustrate How Smartphones Have Taken Over Our Lives” is funny! Original source is here at pulptastic.com.
