EDITOR'S PAGE
Serial Renovator
The other day I was watching a slow-moving BBC drama with my father when one of the characters began rummaging through her closet in search of something for her friend to wear to a big event. I knew what was coming. I turned to my father and jokingly said, "It's time for a makeover, Dad!" And from that point on, we were both glued to the TV. After a whirlwind transformation that involved several dramatic wardrobe changes, the friend wound up looking amazing and was, of course, the belle of the ball.
One of my favourite makeovers is in The Devil Wears Prada, when Anne Hathaway evolves from plain Jane to supreme fashionista. It's just so exciting to watch someone or something change from everyday to extra special. When I look at the dramatic before and afters on our pages this month, I feel the same way — so much potential realized! This is why I think I'm a serial renovator. When I'm not in the midst of a project I feel out of sorts. But when I'm mid reno, I'm alive with anticipation. Truth be told, it's been a while — and I'm starting to get the itch, looking around the house at what I can get my hands on. My plan is a few quick fixes to tide me over until we're ready to move.
For a year now, I've been dying to update my cherry kitchen cabinets (which were in the house when we moved in six years ago) with a coat of matte charcoal grey paint and stainless steel pulls. Of course, Arriz is totally against it (given the choice, don't most men choose natural wood over paint?). In my living room, replacing the orange striped drapes with a new set in either blue or grey velvet or linen will completely transform the space. Sometimes, strategic redecorating like this can give almost as much of a lift as renovating. I was so excited when our newest design editor, Kathryn Bala, found the textured wall tiles below, which I may use for our ensuite bath — they're a fresh take on white subway tiles, and can be installed right on top of old tile. And for the quickest fix of all, check out Ikea's Dimma plug (below). It puts any regular lamp on a dimmer — a must-have for setting the perfect mood. You can get similar dimmers at other hardware and lighting stores, but of course, I love the name of this one!
In the end, renovating is all about change, and sometimes change is exactly what we need to get us excited about our homes all over again.
FRESHEN UP
Here are a few of the quick fixes on my to-do list.
Instantly renovate a lamp and your mood with a plug-in dimmer switch. Dimma switch, Ikea.
A coat of matte charcoal paint for my kitchen cabinets, and new sleek metal pulls. Paint

WHAT RENOVATIONS WOULD YOU LOVE TO DO?
SABRINA LINN "I recently finished a major reno [featured in H&H, August 2009], so now I'm just redecorating. Simply rearranging furniture can transform a space...and it's free!" A sought-after designer, Sabrina works for private clients, magazines and several HGTV design shows. Born in Montreal, she decamped to Toronto 10 years ago where she now designs a line of colourful vintage-inspired fabrics and pillows, as she did for this issue's "Weekend Decorating" (page 72).
NANCY TONG: "I'd love to knock down the wall in our kitchen. My husband has a real green thumb — it would be great to open up the space to the garden." A great job perk for veteran photographer Nancy, who shot one of the bathrooms in this issue's "The Spa Effect" (page 66), is seeing into people's houses, as she has long been fascinated by design and how others live. She lives with her husband and two small children in Toronto, and spends her down time in the studio experimenting with ceramics.
EMILY NORRIS "My husband and I are adding a beautiful, simple boxy space onto our house. It has polished concrete floors and floor-to-ceiling windows." After 12 years working in the magazine world (including here at H&H), Toronto-based Emily decided to switch gears. For the past few years she has been a full-time real-estate agent, freelance writer and prop stylist, as well as mom to three children under the age of five. For this issue, she wrote "The Spa Effect" (page 66).

I have always lived out of boxes. I come from a family that couldn't stay put, so my house has always been messy and disorganized. I've spent my adult life investing in my family and my career, but not in my home, and I came to realize not too long ago that everyone needs not just a house, but a home. So I have set out to create a cosy, welcoming nest, one room at a time, and H&H has been by my side every step of the way.

I feel compelled to tell you that I think your December cover [above] was awful. It's your Entertaining issue, for goodness sake! The photograph is bland, white, one-dimensional and unbalanced. What's to "enjoy!"?
