Evette Ríos is a craft and design expert, and all around home enthusiast. As Content Buddy for the Rachael Ray Show, she's known for fabulous hands-on advice, innovative crafts, and dramatic room revisions – wowing Rachael and the audience with budget friendly projects that look like a million bucks.

Most recently, Evette brought her can-do attitude and off beat sense of humor to Planet Green's flagship show, The G-Word, which debuted in June 2008. In the role of field correspondent, Evette presents her segment Salvage – creating amazing furniture from curbside junk... sparing the environment and spotlighting green art and sustainable solutions everywhere.

Previously, Evette was co-host and designer for Freestyle (HGTV), TLC's home repair show In A Fix, and host for 100 Days of Holidays for Better Homes & Garden's and Better.Tv. Evette writes Kitchen Fix for Everyday with Rachael Ray and Cosas De Diseño for Siempre Mujer magazine. Her Puerto Rican roots, love of travel, and years apprenticing under some of NYC's finest architects and designers, have both inspired and influenced her work. However, nothing sparked Evette's design interests more than watching her parents work on homes as a child. A life-long New Yorker, she lives downtown with her dog Baloo and cats Henwin and Miss Kitty.
