Benjamin Moore Natura Semigloss Interior paint in Mexicali Turquoise ($50 per gallon). This modern hue is perfect for furniture makeovers—and the no-VOC formula means it's super-"green."

Use the Daisy Print Tool Kit by Wild and Wolf ($32)—with a hammer, slip-joint pliers, and a six-in-one screwdriver—when you’re back home sprucing up those flea market finds.

Place Hammocks and High Tea Organic Cotton Sachets ($20 for pair) inside old dresser drawers to replace musty smells with the rejuvenating scent of organic lavender or lemon verbena.
