My pet peeve is houses that remind of lunch meat. For some reason, people around here tend to paint their houses in the exact pinkish tone of bologna. I don’t think it’s intentional who looks at their house and says “I want to put a lot of work & money into my house so it can look like bologna for the next 20 years”. One of the best things we did when redoing the exterior our house was to buy a paint program where we could test different textures & colors. This helped us pick out 2-3 good colors to test and then we could see what it looked like on the outside of our house. I’m not affiliated with this company I just am a big fan of things that are free, and trying to save people from lunchmeat paint colors. This is my favorite free program to use, pick a house that looks like yours & go crazy. It’s coloring books for grown ups. Works for me!

One of my favorite shows on HGTV is “House Hunters”. The show follows people all over the country, & now world trying to find a home. You get to see how much apartments, condo’s, townhouses, & homes are, what is important to people, & even how they decorate the apartment after. It seems the only common dominator is every other real estate agent welcomes people into their office to sign the offer with “Ready to sign your life away?”. You just spent weeks trying to convince this people that hideous wallpaper is an “easy fix”, and that they can always expand to add the second bath they wanted, and now you are mocking them? Smooth, very smooth. I guess this is supposed to be funny, or the real estate equivalent of how are you?  It just seems like poor salesman ship, if a real estate agent even says that to me, I am just going to say “Nope, I’m not” & walk away.

Tonight’s episode of “Design Star” had Alice & David decorating glass houses in New York City. I was torn this episode, it’s like choosing between your children. I thought David was the better designer, but as a host I love Alice. Bottom line I need more information, what show are they going to be hosting? Are they going to be a minor or major character, will they be making up all the ideas ala Martha Stewart, or simply be a host like Clive Pierce? I love Alice, I want to be her friend. However, I thought David had the better house, the screen idea was brilliant. I was yelling at the TV, Don’t put in any color, don’ t you put in a decorative throw pillow don’t you do it David, because I wanted Alice to have a chance. I didn’t even put this much thought into voting for President. So you can cast your vote for the next design star here. I really just want them to host a show together. I loved that they weren’t at each others throats like most reality series, they seem like they genuinely want the best for each other. Heck, HGTV give them both a show!
