“Two gallons for three giant rooms? Is she joking?” “I’m a painter, not a mover.” “There’s nothing painters hate more than walking into a room full of stuff,” says Jeff Hester of Hester Painting and Decorating in Chicago, IL. “It means valuable painting time gets wasted while I clear out the space.” Before your painter arrives, empty bookshelves, and take mirrors and art off the walls. You’ll also be doing him a solid by rolling up area rugs that aren’t pinned under heavy furniture. The good news: Your painter is on the hook for moving large pieces into the center of the room and covering them with protective drop cloths. “Keep your dog out of my hair.” It doesn’t matter how well-behaved your Jinxsy is. When the painter comes, dogs—and…

Hard to believe, but for 21 years, HGTV has been designing (and giving away) Dream Homes all around the country. This year designer Brian Patrick Flynn took on one of the biggest challenges yet: renovating a shabby house a few miles from the Atlantic Ocean on St. Simons Island, GA. It might look dreamy now, but when Brian laid eyes on it, he knew the project would be a doozy. “It was 1980s all the way,” he says. “The exterior was ugly stucco, and the rooms were small, closed off, and decorated in yellow…

Whenever I fall in love with a new lamp (this happens often), I always want to take home two so I’ll have a matching set. It’s probably because in our living room growing up, my mom always had matching lamps on the matching end tables on either side of the sofa. Come to think of it, my grandma Ann also had a stylish pair of matching living room lamps flanking her sofa, and so did my grandma Helen—though she called her sofa a davenport, which my sisters and I thought was the funniest thing ever. For me—and apparently for my mom and grandmas too—a striking pair of lamps in the living room is the ultimate finishing touch. Little things like lamps are what give a home spark and personality. That’s…

…to take your dog out in winter without a coat? As long as your dog isn’t a hairless breed, like a Chinese crested, it’s usually fine for him to go au naturel in the cold, says Ann Hohenhaus, D.V.M., staff doctor at New York City’s Animal Medical Center. Because many canines have a built-in coat, they don’t normally need another one, nor will they get sick going out without a jacket. But that’s not to say your pup won’t be uncomfortable, especially if it’s below freezing. If you notice him shivering or pulling to go inside, you may want to bundle him up. Same goes for a dog who’s used to warm weather if he takes a trip up north: He may need an extra layer until he acclimates to…

Readers share their thoughts and tell us which stories inspired them most. The set of dinette chairs you made over in your October issue [“Would You Let These Chairs in Your House?”] really spoke to me. Last year I found similar ones, covered in plasticky 1970s-era material, and revived them with white paint and funky retro fabric. I was thrilled to see you did something similar to the set you found. Love the magazine! —Brenda Scott, Lake Mary, FL Thank you for the October story “The Actually Useful Junk Drawer.” My boyfriend loves gadgets and helpers like the items you featured. Your story was a one-stop shopping guide for his stocking stuffers. —Amanda Finin, Lexington, KY I can hardly wait for your magazine to arrive in the mail each month.…

I’m small but mighty. Dryers with at least 1,800 watts of power are ideal for a quick blowout. For extra-thick hair, look for one with 2,000 watts. If those numbers seem high, well, they are: By comparison, many upright vacs use less than 1,500 watts. Hair dryers need the boost to produce a strong airflow and high heat. I work on more than hair. Use the cool-air feature to dry your toothbrush before packing it for a trip, helping to prevent bacteria growth. The warm setting can stretch too-tight leather shoes. Put on thick socks, slip on the shoes, and heat them up for a couple minutes. To easily remove price tags from new dishware, blast them with hot air to soften the adhesive. Careful with my cord. Always unplug…

tucson coral BY BENJAMIN MOORE “These thick mahogany builtins felt better suited for an old-fashioned library than for a young family’s reading room. But once the bookshelves were painted this pink grapefruit shade, the room became everyone’s favorite.” —Kimberlee Gorsline, Kimberlee Marie Interior Design, Seattle, WA salute BY SHERWIN-WILLIAMS “I designed this mudroom for a newlywed couple. She loves red. Him? Not so much. The compromise: stripes! Each stripe is 15 inches tall, so the pomegranate is tempered with lots of white.” —Elizabeth Benedict, Elizabeth Benedict Home Decor & Design, Chestnut Hill, MA raindrop BY SHERWIN-WILLIAMS “I can’t think of a room that’s a bad match for this blue. It’s a bold hue that seems serene at the same time. I’ve been told guests who stay in this bedroom don’t…

You could say I had fallen out of love with my house,” says Teresa Kelleher of the 3,600-squarefoot Palo Alto, CA, home that she and her husband, Brian, bought back in 2002. It wasn’t the structure itself Teresa was weary of—it was the way she had decorated it 15 years ago. “My style back then was heavy, bulky furniture and lots of deep reds, greens, and golds,” she recalls. After living with that look for more than a decade, Teresa decided she had gotten tired of the dark, dramatic decor. “The house doesn’t get a lot of natural light, and the color scheme was just depressing,” she says. Moving was out of the question, so in 2012, she gave the home an energy boost with help from designers Tiffany Mansfield…
