Home Honey-dos: What's new, what's hot at the Tri-State Home Show

Kitchen designs will feature the latest in cabinetry, countertops, flooring, appliances and built-ins at the Tri-State Home Show, which opens Friday.

This outdoor living space designed by Grass and More of Dalton, Ga., won Best of Show at the 2013 Tri-State Home Show.

A growing trend in home renovation is "aging in place," the buzzword for safety renovations that allow the aging baby boomer population to remain independent and in their homes longer. This bath design by Independent Lifestyle Solutions allows a homeowner in a wheelchair to roll up to the sink or into the shower, where a built-in bench offers seating while bathing.

Faux treatments make a comeback on cabinets.
