How to Prep for Your July 4th Party

Putting together a July 4th celebration can seem chaotic, but it really should be a fun time! Plan your most entertaining and creative party yet with these simple steps:


Create a Menu
Surprise your guests with a spread of mouth-watering entrees, thirst-quenching drinks, and delicious desserts. Grilled Pork Tenderloin with corn on the cob makes a great alternative to traditional burgers and is sure to set your party apart from the rest! You can also try an American flag printed cake to show your patriotism and get your guests in the July 4th spirit! It may look like a white cake on the outside, but guests will love the red white and blue print when you cut into the cake.

Get Your Patio Ready
Step one to getting your patio ready: power wash it. We recommend presoaking the surface with a detergent to cut down on wash time. Secondly, don’t forget to wipe down your tables with a natural, chemical-free, DIY cleaner. Before you’re done, remember to water your plants to keep them looking fresh for the special event!

Decorate
It’s Independence Day, so don’t be afraid to go a little overboard with the stars and stripes. This means adding mini flags to your flower pots, placing down table runners, hanging up garland, and setting out red white and blue plates.

Residents at Copper Square benefit from maintenance free living to allow more time to decorate to their heart’s content for the holiday. Our Models, Design Studio & Sales Center are now open. Call today at (203)778-4800 or visit our website for more information.

Summer Colors for Your Home

If we could put summer decor into one word, it would be “colorful”. Summer is the perfect time to make a splash in your home using bright and cheery hues. That being said, here are the top five interior design colors in this year’s forecast:

summer home decor colors

Cobalt Blue
Blue reminds us of the ocean. It can make a statement in any home simply by adding a new lampshade, area rug, or pillow cover. It’s the little things that make such a statement without going overboard.

Exotic Orange
Energize your space by adding punches of vibrant orange in your home. Switch up your wallpaper for an orange geo pattern, create an assortment of Asiatic lilies, or go big by purchasing a new sofa or cushion cover.

Sunny Yellow
Nothing says, “Hello, Summer” more than the color yellow. Yellow can brighten your room and your boost your mood. It resembles the sun and pairs great with navy, gray, and white.

Crisp White
Breathe new life into your home by making everything white. That fresh and clean monochromatic look is classic but looks especially great when the natural sunlight shines into your home. Try this design in your bedroom or in the master bath.

Warm Gray
Gray with yellow undertones can make your space feel neutral without feeling too basic. It goes well with metallics, wood textures, as well as pastels.

4 Things to Do Before Buying a Home

So you’ve decided to invest in a home, but you’re not sure where to start. Buying a home can be a long and tedious process, so making a to-do list will help ease your stress. Here are four tips to get you started:


1. Make a priorities list
First things first - make a list of what’s important to you (location, budget, type of home). If you’re moving in with someone for the first time, it’s important to compromise what’s important - what are you willing to give up and what are you not.

2.Get pre-approved
Be sure to contact the bank for pre-approval. The bank with request all the information that’s needed so you can know how much mortgage you are qualified for. IT might be one of the more mundane things to do before buying a home, but it’s one of the most essential!

3. Search together
Search for houses and neighborhoods to get a feel for where you most desire to live. To gain a better understanding, meet with a realtor. They have several resources and connections that can educate you better on the market and tell you step by step how to go about the buying process.

4. Look for availability
Search online for housing availability in your desired location. See which houses, townhomes, and duplexes are available to gain a better understanding of the market. 

Your future home is waiting for your at Coppers Square! Come check out our luxurious, affordable townhomes and amenities. We are located in the heart of Bethel, CT - a growing community that offers a blend of urban convenience and New England charm. Our Models, Design Studio & Sales Center are now open.

Benefits of Having a Pool at Home

When considering whether or not to invest in a home with a swimming pool, you might be torn about a few things: the upkeep, the real need for it, the value. At Copper Square, we believe there are many benefits (for both mind and body) to owning a little piece of summer fun on your property:


Fitness
The health benefits alone are worth having a swimming pool. Swimming works your entire body, including your arms, legs, and core - even just 15 to 30 minutes at a time can significantly increase your muscle strength and improve your flexibility. 

Family Time

Pool time also calls for family time. What we mean is, you can create an annual tradition - maybe a "Sunday Fun-day" routine where you all agree that summer weekends are for swimming. However you decide to plan, being able to gather outdoors with those closest to you can strengthen your bond and give you a more exciting option than Family Game Night.

Stress Relief
Going for a casual swim is one of the most effective and natural relaxers for both the body and the mind. Picture this: coming home from a long 9-5 work day and being able to kick off your shoes and splash your worries away - it’s a major benefit to those who own a pool.

A Reason to Stay Home
There’s no place like home - especially if you can take a relaxing dip in your swimming pool on a hot summer afternoon! Having a swimming pool on your own property means you don’t need to pack the car and take a trip to the community pool - just take a quick walk out back for some fun in the sun! Think of it as your very own “staycation”.

At Copper Square, our residents look forward to our Elements Pool Deck & Bar where they can take a dip in a heated swimming pool and lounge in a luxurious cabana with a cool drink in hand! The best part is that residents get to enjoy the many benefits while not having to worry about the maintenance - that’s up to us!

Your very own luxury home and swimming pool is waiting for you at Copper Square! Our Models, Design Studio & Sales Center are now open. Call today at (203)778-4800 or visit our website for more information.

How to Throw the Perfect Memorial Day Party

Memorial Day is a time for us to remember and thank those who risk their lives fighting for our country, It’s also considered the annual kickoff of summer. If you’re celebrating Memorial Day this year by hosting a party for friends and family, here are a few preparations to consider:


Decorations - Show your patriotism this holiday by going red, white, and blue! Inside the home, switch up the color of your candles and pillows, and set red and white carnation flowers on the dining room table. On your outdoor patio, place tiny flags in a mason jar filled with patriotic flowers and hang a large American-themed ribbon on your front door (the first thing guests will see when you greet them).

Rearrange seating - Create a more cozy setting for your Memorial Day party moving your indoor and outdoor furniture around. For example, if you have a love seat and a large arm chair, turn them inwards towards each other to make it easy for guests to converse.

Buffet style setup - Memorial Day parties should be casual. So set up a buffet style food arrangement where your guests can come back for seconds and thirds!

Tidy up - Last but not least, remember to tidy up the home before your event - guests will feel much more welcome. Plus, you’ll open up more space for all your party necessities.

At Copper Square, we make preparing for summer parties easy for our residents by taking care of the yard work. Take a sneak peek of our townhome and duplex models by visiting our gallery »

Reasons the Suburbs Beat City Living

Whether you’re downsizing or looking for your first home, you might be torn between city and suburban living. Although there’s no denying that the city has plenty to offer, here is why suburban living is the better option:


More Space 
Unlike city living, the suburbs offer plenty of more space. Your home will be larger, you’ll have easier access to parking, and you won’t have to handle large crowds. You also have the option for a backyard pool and luxurious patio or deck.

More Greenery
Yearning for a healthier lifestyle? If so, then suburban living is the perfect solution for you. The city is surrounded by tall buildings and smoke stacks, but the suburbs will make you feel happier and more connected to nature. When you visit states, like Connecticut, you’ll know exactly what we mean!

Still Close to City Fun
Just because you live in the suburbs, doesn’t mean you still can’t enjoy the city! When you live in the suburbs, you get the best of both worlds - you can live in a larger home yet still take a short commute to the more urban areas around you.

At Copper Square, we are located in the heart of the growing suburban town of Bethel. We offer plenty of space and beautiful outdoor grounds for the summer, including our Elements Pool Deck and Bar. Copper Square is also conveniently located close to New York City - close enough for commuting and weekend trips.

Our Models, Design Studio & Sales Center are now open. Call today at (203)778-4800 or visit our website for more information.

Kitchen Color Trends That Can't Go Wrong

Building a dream kitchen is a big commitment that should last. We all hear about trends that come and go, but did you know there are many classic trends that you can stick with for decades? Here are top three options:


All white
White is timeless and perfect for the kitchen. You can’t go wrong with one of the most popular colors in interior design, especially when you keep it monochromatic. If an all-white kitchen sounds like your style, focus on layering white on white and emphasizing different textures from your wood cabinets, to your glossy countertops, to your tile floors - ideal for contemporary and transitional style homes. 

Neutral Gray

If white is a bit too bright for your taste, opt for gray. Designing a gray kitchen can be tricky, but is a sophisticated color you can’t go wrong with. The best part about going gray is that you can keep your staple interiors neutral but still add hot colors, like reds and yellows. 

Mix and Match
Want a more colorful kitchen? Don’t be afraid to mix and match! Salt and pepper is a popular style that is also classic due to its neutral undertones. Black and white are both classic colors that can be mixed together to create a contrasting, luxurious style. Try pairing black (or dark brown) cabinets and drawers with white countertops.

You classic, dream kitchen is waiting for your at Copper Square! We design both modern and classic designs to fit each lifestyle and personal interior design taste.

Arranging Your Patio Garden

Arbor Day is around the corner! It makes us wonder: could you imagine a home without plants? Plants breathe live into our homes and make us feel more connected with our beautiful environment. Spring is all about growing new life in our outdoor spaces - even on our backyard patios! Here are five containers you need for your patio garden this season:


Ceramic PotCeramic pots reflect in the sunlight and add a pop of color to your outdoor space. Try complementary colors such as a blue pot dedicated to a lemon tree (which, by the way, smell delicious).

Clementine Box
Eat your way through a juicy box of clementines, and when you’re finished, recycle the box for your patio. Not only are clementine boxes a perfect fit for flowers, but they also add a rustic appeal to your space. Plant hyacinths or sunflowers, which thrive best with lots of sun and water.

Tall Containers
Tall containers made of glass create an elegant appeal for your patio area. They’re ideal for tall bloom such as tulips and can be set as a centerpiece on your outdoor table or along the ledge of your patio.

Terrarium
A terrarium allows for a self-sufficient environment and is great for succulents and tropical plants.

Pitcher
Pitchers weren’t just made for lemonade - they also make great plant holders! Add dark colored plants for contrast, such as purple shamrock, and don’t forget to add drainage holes for watering.

When you choose a home at Copper Square, you’ll have the luxury of setting up your very own patio garden. Are you ready to take an inside peek at what Copper Square has to offer? Visit our gallery »

The Best Time to Find Your Dream Home

Buying a home is one of the greatest achievements and milestones in your life. It doesn’t matter whether it’s your first home or your third - finding a new place to call yours leaves you with a good feeling and a sense of security.

Knowing you’re ready to move is one thing, but finding the right time is another. Although experts might suggest one of time the year over another, you might have a better experience around summer. Here’s why:


Pleasant weather
Imagine traveling through snow and ice for an open house - might not be the most enjoyable! Now picture yourself strolling from one home to another on a sunny afternoon. Sounds more enjoyable doesn’t it? When summer rolls around, not only does the search for a new home become easier, but it also gives you the opportunity to check out the neighborhood and become acquainted.

Beat the rush
Whether it be Spring Break or summer vacation, we’re coming closer to that time of year when many people are out of town, which means more opportunity for you. With many people on vacation this season, you’ll be able to beat the rush and focus on your needs without too much anxiety or competition.

Move in before winter
One of the biggest benefits of finding your dream home in summer? Moving in before the chilly weather! That’s right - finding your dream home even during the hottest time of the year means you’ll be able to enjoy the beautiful weather and fall foliage when October arrives - before the cold winter settles in.

If you’re thinking about finding your new dream home but aren’t sure when to begin, why not start now? At Copper Square, our maintenance-free living community offers townhomes and duplexes that homeowners can purchase. Our residents love the beautiful summer ambiance and breathtaking fall foliage right outside their windows!

Earth Day: Green Cleaning Your Home

Today is Earth Day! If you’re on a mission to tidy up your home over the weekend, now is the perfect time to be mindful of how we can do so in a way that not only keeps things clean, but also helps give back to the environment. Here are three green cleaning methods we recommend:


Eco-Friendly Products
Did you know that household poisonings are one of the greatest threats to our health? The biggest culprit of these poisonings is your household cleaners. So look under your sink, grab all the chemical cleaners you have, and read each label. You want to avoid bleach and other dangerous chemicals. A telltale sign that these products are full of chemicals is that they will display the words poison, danger, caution, or warning. Replace these products with non-toxic cleaners or natural ingredients such as white distilled vinegar, baking soda, and lemon.

Recycling
From morning newspapers to glass, take a moment to consider all the products in your home that can be recycled. Establish a bin for plastic items and dispose of them separately from other waste products. 

Donate
Once spring cleaning is complete, create a box for donations. There are many clothing, kitchen, and home decor items that could find a second life somewhere else, with someone who needs it. Drop off your donations at a local Salvation Army or Goodwill. You could also try Craigslist or drop your items off with an artist who can reuse them. Not only will your home look less cluttered, but you’ll be doing your community a favor.

Copper Square is here to make spring cleaning easier for you. While you’re busy green cleaning the home, let us take care of the rest! Our outdoor cleaning and repairing means you’ll have more time for outdoor fun. If you haven’t checked out Copper Square yet, don’t wait!

Spring Cleaning: Organizing Your Closet

If getting ready in the morning is stressing you out, then you’re probably due for spring cleaning your closet! But we know that digging into the abyss of your closet can seem daunting. That’s why we’ve answered these two crucial questions - just to take some weight off your shoulders!


How do I make cleaning up easier?
  1. Create a playlist of your favorite tunes so zone into cleaning and out of distracting background noise
  2. Looking at everything you need to clean up all at once can be overwhelming and discouraging, so divide and conquer. By that, we mean organize everything into categories and work group by group.
  3. Make three piles: keep, toss, and donate. Toss into these boxes so you can fold and organize later.
  4. If one method of organizing didn't work for you in the past, don't feel restricted by old habits. Instead, find a new way to organize. Ask friends, neighbors, or do a quick Google search - one method will stand out!
What should I empty out?
These questions can help you determine which items to keep and which to either toss away or donate:
  1. Does it fit?
  2. Have I worn it in the last 12 months?
  3. Does this currently represent my style?
  4. Is this a “staple” item?
  5. If I was shopping now, would I purchase this?
  6. Do I feel good wearing it?
  7. Will I likely ever wear it again?
Feel like your closet is still bursting at the seams? At Copper Square, we offer spacious closets to make organizing easier! The best part is that our spacious, luxurious townhomes and duplexes come at an affordable price!

Our Models, Design Studio & Sales Center are now open. Call today at (203)778-4800 or visit our website for more information.

Decorating Your Patio for Summer

May is just a few weeks away, which means we’ll be spending more time outdoors! Decorating your outdoor space doesn’t have to cost you an arm and a leg! Decorate your porch or patio with these simple and affordable DIY ideas:
 
Setting Up Furniture

When it comes to creating a seating area for you and your guests, it’s important to think about how you want the space to be used. For example, if it’s just two of you, you might want to keep things simple: set up two wicker chairs and a cozy coffee table. If you’re big on hosting, swap out chairs for love seats and angle them towards each other. This will help create a spot for casual conversation.


Arranging Plants
Adding greenery to your outdoor patio is one of the more obvious ways of saying “hello, summer!” But there are many ways to accomplish this. We suggest freshening up your outdoor place with potted plants - easy to setup and easy to shift around. Add texture by switching up pots with small wagons. Spruce up the space with ferns, lavender, hydrangeas, sunflowers, and other colorful greens!

 Adding Light
Light up the night in these simple ways: stick tiny tiki torches in your potted plants, create an arrangement of lantern candles on your coffee table, or set up canopy string lights. For further inspiration and simple DIY projects for outdoor lighting, we turn to Pinterest!

Current Window Treatment Must-Dos

Windows are without a doubt a place for you to get creative in your home. Whether your intention is to disguise your window or enhance it, there are a few rules to consider:


Allow lots of light
Natural sunlight as all the rage nowadays. Everyone is trying to make their homes feel bigger and better. If you have large windows, this is the perfect opportunity to maximize the amount of existing natural light. Choose light colors and airy textures, while shying away from heavy window treatments. The light glow from outside will enter your home will soften and reflect off the adjacent walls.

Play with color
Vibrant colors will always be trending. If “bright and airy” doesn’t speak to you, then try bringing bright tones into the room. Your home is a canvas for you to use, so think outside the box. Select a color palette that will complement your wall colors and…

Change it up

Keep it seasonally appropriate. No one wants black curtain in the middle of summer - swap out for white or yellow! Change things up when you redecorate as well.

Why Connecticut Is the Best Place to Live

Picture this: You drive up the northeast coast, away from the chaos of a busy workday in New York City. The air is clean - fresh. Driving up, the color on the trees comes back, the traffic calms down - you’re finally home.

This is why Connecticut is the best place to live. Not to mention…



Great Education
You have Yale University, Quinnipiac University, University of Hartford - the list goes on. You will also find some of the best school districts with excellent classrooms from grades K-12.

This is why Connecticut is the best place to live.


Balance
New England charm mixed with urban convenience and nature. It’s all compacted into one state. Drive to the nearby lakes for a taste of serenity; drive into the city for entertainment, food, and drinks (foodies galore!); cruise around the neighborhood and see those colonial home and luxurious mansions - it’s all there.

This is why. Because you can have…

The Best of Both Worlds
Close proximity to your city job. You can come back to your (much more) affordable home, in a place more quiet, where you still have everything you need just minutes away. 

This is why Connecticut is the best place to live.


But don’t take our word for it - come stop by! Up the coast, in the beautiful city of Danbury lies the luxurious community of Copper Square. This maintenance-free living community offers townhomes and duplexes that homeowners can purchase. The best part is that you can enjoy the luxury of owning your own home and let someone else take care of the yard work.
