Not me. But I'm thinking of moving to Toronto so I can be on Candice Olsen's.

I hope her design style is better than her fashion style.

I love how they need YOUR photo ... I guess to make sure you're not to hideous for TV. ;-)

Tempting, but a friend's houseboat was done up for Designed to Sell (and it wasn't really going to be sold) and they did a crappy job with the details. It looked good on TV but up close the paint was streaky and uneven.
They did score free furniture and bedding though.

CMU--

Perhaps the paintjob wasn't that great - but considering what they had to work with, it sure looks alot cleaner to me:

I don't want decorative flowers painted all over. Isn't this what she does...they call her the "artist"

As a designer, I'm interested to see what HGTV's newly annointed "experts" have to say, so I'm looking forward to Jennifer's show. But especially to you design devotees who live in the Washington, DC area, you don't necessarily need to get your tips by way of HGTV.

Spacelift Staging and (re)Design is locally-based but we also do virtual makeovers anywhere and pretty much everywhere. Spacelift was featured in a Washington Post "House Calls" in August. We also offer staging services to help a house look great when buyers come to see it. You may have visited a for sale property staged by Spacelift in the DC area already.

Having an accessible designer working with and for you that you can be in touch with regularly is a great advantage. Give us a call at 202.368.9200 and check us out at http://www.spaceliftstaging.com.

I'm Ed Rudock and I look forward to making your space more beautiful too. Sometimes a house just needs a Spacelift to get the wrinkles out.
