I see my red door and I want it painted black
Ok, something must be wrong -- because not only have I watched two Oprah shows in two weeks -- I've also blogged about both of them. But I'm so glad I caught today's show! Paint guru and redesign expert Debbie Travis is back on again for "One Day Home Makeovers". If you're not familiar with the ways this woman can transform blah and dull rooms, just check out a few of her past projects! (Here is an old blog entry I've made about her show in the past, with my two favorite designs.) Oh to have access to an unlimited paint supply...



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



As i recall,she does amazing things with paint.Too labor intensive for me though.Is Todd going to regret this?

I loved watching her show when it was on PBS. She always comes up with really neat ideas. I wish I was that creative! :)

In Canada, on the Women's Television Network, she has a show called 'The Painted House', which I think is on several hundred times a week (it might just seem that way). I do like some of her ideas, but once in a while she's a little too over-the-top.

Ouch, you caught me! Not long ago they had that show on PBS here, but Mike hated it, I loved it.

He pisses and moans as much as I do about this place, but jeez, if we CAN'T move, can't we at least do something to make this place nicer? What is wrong with that???

I hesitate to even bring this up...I used to do this for a living. :)

Oh cool, thanks for those links! I have never seen that site, or her show.

In today's "Call For Help" shownotes, Cat has a really good article on selecting house paint colors and calculators to estimate how much you'll need. Good timing!
