Planting Roots

Is this the year you plant that garden or re-do your kitchen or maybe just clean out the garage?

No matter where you fall on the home project continuum, the Cincinnati Home + Garden (which re-opens today, btw) will meet you where you are.

“I’ve seen an increased interest in pools and pergolas, for exterior projects,” says Kelly Scott, the show’s manager. “Interior trends we’ve seen a lot of interest in paint colors and wallpaper options, since those smaller projects are less daunting but have a big impact.”

From plumbers to flooring and tile, the bath of your dreams can become a reality when you talk to an on-site expert.

Kitchen renovations are a huge undertaking – take your firsts steps at the Cincinnati Home + Garden Show.

Feature Gardens are a great way to learn more about landscaping, including the use of native plants, hardscapes, and design.

Whether it’s for a “she shed,” yard barn, or garage, find custom storage options from builders.

Elevate your home with the charm of fresh flowers from Daisy Jane’s and small plants, succulents, and ferns by Egbert’s Landscaping, available for sale at the show.

Need advice? Ask a Designer presented by Sacksteder's Interiors can help you sort out the latest trends and answer all your home décor questions.

If a room refresh or small repair is beyond your abilities, don’t worry. From contractors to plumbers, the show has people who can do the work for your.

“You’re able to meet these companies face to face,” says Scott. “That personal interaction will help guide you through any projects you have in mind.”

A walk through the show can inspire lots of ideas, but maybe you just need a little bit of Spring before you commit to a project. The show has a few “instant gratification” options.

“You can take home from flowers from Daisy Jane’s Flower Truck and plants from Egbert’s Landscaping, or items from the marketplace, including food, pottery, and jewelry,” Scott says.
