Planning on redecorating or renovating your home in 2010?

We're here to take you where you want to go with the reno and décor challenges you face in the months ahead. In this issue, our team has scoured the marketplace and consulted with the experts to ensure you have one of the best resources available in the GTA in which to find the products you need.

As we look forward to the new decade ahead, we are planning a full roster of interesting features and topics to help keep you in-the-know on the subject of DIY projects, décor and renovations ideas.

I finally got around to doing my own DIY project last month - restoring a cabinet my dad picked up for me at a contents sale several months ago.

Inspired to take on the challenge by an Olympic Paint sample called Smoke Grey, the colour was perfect for creating the "distressed" denim chambray look I was going for as a finish. Even with no glass, I think it turned out great! These sample-size paints can be mixed in any colour and are an inexpensive way to see the final shade you'll end up with. Olympic Paint is available at Lowe's.

Have a wonderful new year!
