The second episode of Design(ish), my new show for the Design Network, is ready for you. This one tackles a tough question: how much renovation can you do on a rental? Watch it here and leet me know what you think!

In case you missed it, I was on Rachael Ray’s show yesterday talking about one of my favorite things… paint. I shared three DIY paint tricks that you can use, including how to turn any paint into spray paint. Click here to check out the videos.

Overwhelmed by clutter? We tapped those in the know to learn the clever ways they keep their homes orderly.

I used to spend 25 days a month on the road, but when [my daughter] Bebelle was born four years ago, I made a rule that I’d rarely travel for work. That means cooking dinner together, playing dress up, and tweeting in my pajamas. I like my domestic side!

Genevieve is one of the happiest people I’ve ever met and her love of design is utterly infectious. She infuses everything she does with character, a personal story and meaning – elements that you cannot buy or have made by someone else. She quite simply has a knack for figuring out what makes someone feel at home and how to bring that to life. In today’s show we talk about how her own style has evolved, what she learned from a truly difficult renovation process (like how quickly budgets go overboard!) and how she’s staying inspired by the digital design world online right now. If you have 30 minutes to sit and be inspired, please check out this show. It’s hard to listen to Genevieve and not walk away feeling lighter, happier and motivated to make the world a more beautiful place. Thanks so much to Gen and Melissa for joining me today!
