mugs and notebooks at Station 62.
A small rotating storage bin holds useful and
decorative items.
Rustic is the main style at Roan.
Organize. Decorate. Relax.

Blue Mountain Eagle
he sun is shining, flowers are
blooming and the bees are
buzzing.
All the telltale signs of the
changing seasons may cause one to
open the curtains and launch into
some spring cleaning.
Whether you need home or-
ganizing tips or ideas for a fresh
look, home design experts from
Canyon City and Prairie City have
some ideas to make the chore a
delight.
Debi Hueckman of Station 62
in Canyon City, and Judy Jacobs
and Diane Clingman of Roan Out-
west, Interiors and Design in Prai-
rie City shared several solutions for
brightening the living space.
Jacobs shared a quote from Wil-
liam Morris: “Have nothing in your
house that you do not know to be
useful or believe to be beautiful.”
She said one of her favorite
ways to begin sprucing up a room
is to “start with a blank canvas.”
Clutter can be overwhelming, she
said, and as tastes change, people
may find themselves stuck with
useless knick-knacks and other
once-loved items.
Clingman added, “If you hav-
en’t used it in two years, throw it
out — unless it’s the toilet plung-
er!”
Here are more ideas from the
ladies at Roan:
