Is a recession a good time to give homes a new look?

CTV.ca NewsToronto — Mark and Lisa Abernethy have an older, detached Victorian-style house in Toronto. Lisa, who is pregnant with the couple's second child, says it's the right home for their growing family.But "we've got to do something about our kitchen," she told CTV.ca during a visit to the Interior Design Show (IDS) in Toronto in the first weekend of February.

She and Mark were there hoping to get some decorating and interior design ideas. But like many of the people at the IDS and other Canadians from coast to coast, they say they're "certainly aware" of the tough economic times.
