PROJECT #1: PAINT AN ENTRYWAY To tackle a bench with lots of spindles, use a roller to paint the seat, then an angled brush to coat the rest. Apply two coats, letting the paint dry in between. Bright accents add a pop of color. PROJECT #2: PAINT A NIGHTSTAND Remove the drawers and unscrew the hardware. Use a straight brush to paint the drawer fronts, sides, back and top of the nightstand, then an angled brush for any detail work. Apply two coats, letting the paint dry in between. When the second coat is dry, reattach the hardware and insert the drawers. PROJECT #3: PAINT A BASKET Apply a strip of painter’s tape around the middle of the basket, pressing it into the grooves as you go. Add another layer…

florida keys blue “This watery teal makes washing up fun—exactly what the homeowner wanted in her kids’ bathroom. The color could look intense on four full walls, but it’s perfect as an accent.” —Sharon McKenzie, Sharon McKenzie Architect, Toronto, Ontario pondscape BY BEHR “The walls in my bedroom were stark white before I painted them this soft minty green.

1 Karen and Mina live right next to each other in Indianapolis, IN. “I had my house first!” says Mina. “Mom moved in next door so we could be close.” Their reno career began when Mina enlisted Karen’s help to redo her home in 2007. Once the fix-up was complete, the two were hooked on restoring old houses. 2 With Mina’s reno under their (tool) belts, the women decided to start their own company, Two Chicks and a Hammer, rehabbing dilapidated houses in Indianapolis. They’ve restored more than 40 so far, working on nine at once at their busiest point. “We love our city because of the patient, kind, and considerate people who live here,” says Karen. “And it has food, music, arts, and a sports scene that rivals any…

I once emptied a chilled rose into one of these on a 100-degree afternoon at the pool, and it stayed perfectly crisp even in the sun.” —Andrey Ivanov, beverage…

Check my tag. Look for a swimsuit made of a blend of polyester or nylon (80 to 90 percent) and spandex (10 to 20 percent). Avoid cotton, which is more appropriate for lounging than swimming. Also good to know: Suits with ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) are less likely to fade in the sun. Wash me before you wear me. A suit straight off the rack can carry germs from everyone who tried it on before you—and, no, that little paper liner doesn’t do much to protect you. Make sure to wash your suit by hand with cool water and gentle detergent prior to the first wear. Keep me hydrated. Rinse your suit after wearing it—even if you haven’t gotten wet—to wash away salt and sunscreen residue. All it takes is…

Most of us have some. Here’s what to do with it. Buy Right Once you’ve picked out the color, how do you know how much paint to buy? The best way to buy the right amount is to measure the width and height of the walls, then ask your paint retailer for advice. Be sure to tell them about the current color, wall texture and condition, and whether the walls have been primed or previously painted. They’ll help you figure out how much paint you need. Pass It On Have good paint leftover but have no use for it? Pass it on to someone who can use it! You never know who may want it. Odds are a friend or family member needs paint for a project they want to…

sara peterson: You’ve played such an important role in creating this issue—thank you! Many people will say it’s your best work yet. You focused primarily on painting old furniture.

…to let your dog swim in a pool? There’s no reason why a pup who loves swimming can’t go for a dip, but owners should take a few safety precautions first. Most important: “Swimming dogs should never be left unattended due to drowning risk,” says Jerry Klein, D.V.M., chief veterinary officer at the American Kennel Club. He also recommends keeping a bowl of fresh water nearby in case your dog gets thirsty, because your pup is liable to get an upset stomach if he drinks chemically treated or saline pool water. Dr. Klein says that ideally the pool should have easily scalable steps so the dog can get out on his own when he’s tired. Like humans, dogs can experience mild irritation of the eyes from chlorine or salt water,…

A crisp color combo Adding a citrus shade is one of the easiest ways to make a bedroom feel ripe for summer. In this room, tangerine-hued bedding (in thick cabana stripes, another warm-weather signature) is paired with equal parts navy blue—a spot-on palette. A few flower picks A whole lot of white (white walls, white headboard, white duvet cover) is fresh and summery on its own. Pop in pink—especially via patterns with big blooms— and the room immediately looks beat-the-heat chic. Shades of strawberry sherbet make their way to the curtain panels, art, and nightstand accessories, too.

after a few years of living in a nice but charmless new-construction home in Dallas, TX, Katie and Phillip Graham were itching to move into a house with a soul. On their regular walks around the neighborhood, they’d pass by a stately 1940s wood and stone home beyond its better days—faded paint, overgrown shrubs, and a too-small portico. Even though it wasn’t for sale, the Grahams excitedly planned how they’d renovate it to suit their growing family. “We hadn’t seen the inside,” Katie says, “but you could tell it had great bones.” After months of daydreaming, they worked up the courage to knock on the door and make an offer. It was declined, but the Grahams didn’t give up hope. The next year the house went on the market, and…

when Caroline O’Meara and Matt Traub started talking about the renovations they wanted in their Austin, TX, kitchen, they didn’t make a list of all the things they hated about their current space. Instead they rattled off the things they liked. “The floors were great,” says Caroline. “We’ve always loved that retro look. And the appliances were all fairly new, so why get rid of them?” The overall layout suited the couple too. “Once we decided not to mess with those major investments, we focused our ideas—and our budget—on what really mattered,” Caroline says, including upping the counter space and cabinets, and adding a customized bar/desk area with barstool seating. To help them carve out the kitchen they envisioned, the couple turned to local designer and friend Amity Worrel, who…
