Plant aficionado Hilton Carter breaks down the dos and don'ts of light exposure for indoor houseplants.

You want the furniture you love—and spent good money on—to go the distance. These smart strategies will ensure that your MVPs (most-valued pieces) look and feel beautiful for a lifetime.

Star light, star bright! Create a magical set of glowing lanterns using craft paint, lights, and little mason jars. They'll cast an enchanting spell on your kids' imaginations.

Some superheroes have X-ray vision. You're more of an X-ray visionary, creating ominous ambience in minutes flat. Who else would have thought to slip anatomy cards into apothecary jars, then drop in a flameless candle to illuminate the malevolent collection?

We're taking notes.

Trust your judgement, don't feel pressured to make decisions, and enjoy the process of creating a beautiful home.

We’ll take one of each.

There's more to it than just laying one down on the floor.
