PRESENTED BY HOW TO CHOOSE THE PERFECT MATTRESS You spend one-third of your life in bed, why not make it wonderful? MAKE IT PERSONAL Scale the size to your space and match the firmness to your sleep style. Map out your bedroom to determine whether a king or a queen would be the best fit. If you sleep with a partner (or pets!), it may be worth sizing up. Find the right feel—Firm, Plush, or Ultra Plush—based on your usual sleep position. THINK LONG TERM A high-quality mattress should last up to 10 years, so invest in comfort, durability, and support. Research how it’s made—the materials used for the interior and the exterior can have a major impact on comfort and durability over time. TRUST THE LEGACY Seek out a…

envy BY SHERWIN-WILLIAMS “Painting this secondhand cabinet brought out its cool bamboo, wicker, and brass details. The color was inspired by the homeowner’s lush yard—it reminds me of a four-leaf clover.” —Austin Black, @styled.byaustin, Denver, CO hague blue BY FARROW & BALL “A single mom owns this house, so I wanted the kitchen nook to be a glamorous color that could transition from breakfasts to dinner parties. This dark blue is perfect! Teal undertones show when the sun hits, and at night this shade is perfectly moody.” —Cecilia Casagrande, @ceciliainteriors, Brookline, MA yellow groove BY BEHR “The wood built-ins in my home office were dark and uninventive—the total opposite of my bold, colorful style. To make them more me, I went with the most vibrant yellow I could find. You…

all hooked up Designer Tracy Bennett needed a home for her family’s sports gear, and the garage of her Irving, TX, house was the perfect solution. She chose farmhouse-inspired wainscoting to dress up a blank wall and included lots of hooks and baskets for storage. “No more searching for equipment as we’re heading to a game,” she says. An art ledge and a bright blue door (Acapulco Cliffs by Glidden) add a little flair. small but mighty Tired of tripping on shoes and backpacks as she walked into her Charlotte, NC, home, blogger Christina Marcellino had an epiphany: “Put it all in the garage!” The family parks two cars here, so only a sliver of space was up for grabs. She had shelves installed as high as possible but put…

the details ← NAVY PAINT gives this traditional side hall Colonial a modern twist. The house style is named for its layout: The hall and staircase are on one side of the house rather than in the middle. ← A BOLD DOUBLE DOOR pops against the dark exterior. Homeowners Cathy and Ben Clammer painted it lime green after moving in. “We’re a fun, energetic family, and I wanted a bright color to reflect that,” says Cathy. ← CEDAR SHAKE SIDING brings some beachiness to the suburbs. “It reminds me of houses you see on the Jersey shore,” Cathy says. ← THE ROCK WALL is made from stone dug out of the yard. This feature separates the grass from a garden path and is planted with flowers and shrubs meant to…

bright idea “My children spread their school stuff all over the kitchen,” says blogger Jordan Maconachy (@jordan.and.co). To corral the mess, she installed desks in a small room near her pantry. Spotted wallpaper from Katie Kime, funky Sazerac Stitches sconces, and rainbow-bright accessories keep everyone smiling, even during test prep. counter intelligence Builders and designers Brendan and Jillian Bader (@modern_nest) created this spot for the kids of a former teacher—no pressure! “The desk is in a living space that’s mostly white, so we used a butcher block countertop to warm it up,” says Jillian. Brass sconces from Schoolhouse and plush pink West Elm chairs are sophisticated enough that grown-ups love them, too. schoolhouse rocks Painter’s tape and a can of green chalkboard paint were all designer Xin Lu (@athomewithxin) needed…

NOT BAD AT ALL! NOT SO BAD! KINDA BAD! PRETTY BAD! REALLY BAD! SUPER BAD! how bad is it to burn catalogs in a firepit? Using a few pieces of newspaper to get your flames going is OK, but don’t add those colorful, glossy inserts to the fire. “Burning colored paper may release toxic fumes, so we absolutely advise against it,” says Susan McKelvey, a spokesperson for the National Fire Protection Association. To protect yourself—and the environment—recycle catalogs and stick to burning wood. (P.S. The same rule applies to your fireplace!) SUPER BAD! how bad is it to discipline someone else’s dog? Just like with children, this is a touchy subject—and it’s best not to engage. “Unless you’re personally in danger, it’s safer for everyone involved to let owners be…

Whenever Nedra Davis has free time, she spends it decorating—and redecorating—her house. “I’m constantly swapping things out,” says the nonprofit marketing and communications director and mom of two. “We’re talking every few weeks I’ll change the art or the pillows or the rugs!” She’s making up for lost time, because before she bought this 1,400-square-foot brick townhouse in Bowie, MD, she was a renter. “I was in my last rental for six years and didn’t even experiment with paint because in my head, it wasn’t mine,” she says. When this 1991 Colonial hit the market, she found the perfect place to embrace her obsession with color and DIY projects. The owner had kept the house in meticulous shape, but the style was “uninviting and very, very dark,” Nedra says. “All…

cabinets Walnut uppers deliver on the mid-century look the couple wanted, while lowers painted Extra White by Sherwin-Williams keep the space bright. “We watch a lot of HGTV and love when designers do mixed cabinetry,” says Wendy. “Normally the darker color is on the bottom, but Ashley suggested the reverse, and we really like it.” backsplash The shapes on the Fireclay tiles are a nod to the couple’s home state: “They remind me of the irrigation circles you see when you fly over Colorado,” says Wendy. The window and island are trimmed in matching mint subway tile. island Wendy and Scott made better use of the space with a multilevel island that serves as a dining table (the wraparound butcher block counter seats four) and prep area. “We have just…
