Hilary’s acting as her own client as she works to transform the quaint cottage into her dream home. But she quickly runs into problems when she discovers a rotting foundation and termites eating through the subfloor. Naturally, her co-host David is on hand to convince Hilary that she should trade the outdated bungalow for a move-in-ready place that better fits her needs. But will he be able to find the place that ticks off all the items on her wish list and convinces her to list her home?

As an interior designer, Hilary is committed to helping people make the most of their space. What’s her advice for those who are embarking on a renovation or redecorating project? Stay true to yourself. 

“The most important thing is to understand what gives you pleasure,” she said in an interview with Realtor.com. “If it’s orange, paint it orange. Bring in orange, whatever that is. Don’t allow yourself to be completely influenced by whatever is so-called on-trend. Don’t be influenced beyond what you are drawn to.”

While it’s important to be open to new things and not get stuck in a rut, “you need to understand what makes you feel comfortable within your home,” she added. ”Once you’ve established that, then you can move from there and start layering and bringing in other colors or other textures or other objects, if you like, that are slightly out of your comfort zone, because just as in any area of our lives, you do need to be open to change and embrace that as well.”
