Boy, it’s been a long road to get here to the “Design Star” finale, hasn’t it? Surely they’ll reward us for our loyalty, right?
Well, it turns out what we get for our trouble is a previously recorded show stuffed with montages, Lumber Liquidator endorsements, and a not-so-live audience. This crowd is so stale I [...]
It’s only a few more hours now until we learn who HGTV’s Next Design Star is going to be. Click here to see who got more votes in our poll. It’ll be interesting to see if the rest of America voted the same way.
While we wait, I thought we’d take a look back at [...]
Not to sound braggy or anything, but I’m Famous now. Okay, I can see that you’re a little skeptical, but it’s true!
So get this. I was reading a newspaper interview with Jennifer Bertrand, one of the top two contestants left on HGTV’s “Design Star” (look up–that’s her). Jen mentioned that she’s been reading design blogs [...]
Oh, boy, you guys. We’ve been through a lot together these past 8 weeks, haven’t we?
Let’s see. We witnessed fake-out challenges (”Build a house by the lake”–just kidding!), fake hair, and fake travel (”Pack your bags and come to the airport”–then design a room inside the hangar to look like Mexico!). There were missing sofas, [...]
Well, guys, here I am, broadcasting from my vacation because I just couldn’t stand to miss the second-to-last recap of the Design Star season. I’m not sure how well I can pull this off with “live TV” (I usually use my DVR to pause the show and take photos and write notes). But for you [...]
I realize that this has nothing to do with real estate, houses, or decorating, but I just have to mention that one of my favorite TV addictions, Project Runway, starts a new season tomorrow night on Bravo (Wednesday, July 16). This is a photo of the new cast. Have you missed Heidi Klum, Tim Gunn [...]
Well, now that I have your attention with this screen shot of Mikey V, let’s start this week’s recap. In episode 6, our Designtestants must face The Dreaded Kitchen Challenge.
If you watched the first two seasons of Design Star, then you know that no team has ever completed a kitchen challenge in the time allotted. [...]
Another week has flown right by, which means it’s time for another Design Star recap! Are you ready? Grab a bowl of popcorn and settle in.
Tonight’s episode starts with Clive making his entrance through a regular set of doors inside the house, which is kind of disappointing after seeing him arrive on boats and planes [...]
Okay. So lots of you wrote in last week and insisted that you are still watching “Design Star” with me and faithfully reading my weekly recaps. You know what that means, right? I will keep recapping and you have to keep reading.
Tonight’s episode was the fourth one of the season and it started out with [...]
Well, you guys, I was totally going to skip this week’s recap because I’ve been working all day on this week’s Fantasy Open House series (coming up next!), and I was just too tired to write another post tonight.
But then I watched the episode and couldn’t stand NOT to talk about it. It was all [...]
