Derek Davis sees an array of products at the Brighter Homes Exhibition in the RDS, Dublin.

The Brighter Homes Exhibition featured everything for the home including painting reproductions, gym equipment, power tools, bedroom furniture, kitchen fittings, a display of front door fittings from the company 'Knobs and Knockers', executive toys, and food.

It's as much an exhibition for the dedicated handyman and do-it-yourself fanatic as a day out for the curious and ham-fisted incompetent, who just wants to brighten up the home the easy way.
