How cool!!! It's Iron Chef for designers! Who's going to judge their efforts?
I love Vern Yip- he's hands down my favorite, real-person designer on HGTV. I can watch him all day.
Alright! Sparkle Josh is a judge!!!!!!! But the homeowners don't really get a new room - these are mock-ups on a sound stage. :{ I'm there! Julie
OK, I only saw one episode of Design Stars - it was the one where they did the white room. Some of them were a hot mess. I am really looking forward to Project Runway though. Love that one.
Thanks for the heads-up Melissa. I won't miss it. Those are some interesting combinations! Is it true that Sparkle Josh is a judge??? Oh my, talk about adding some personality.
Yeah, I saw the preview. It looks like a lot of good fun. If I had to guess I would reckon that a non-designer like Lisa LaPorta will actually do a lot better than one might think. It'll be fun to see th hunky carpenter guys take on one another.
Are you a Matt or Jen fan? I can't decide. Matt is so sweet but awfully like Angelo Surmelis, what do you think?
Not only is Sparkle Josh a judge, but so is 'Tootie'!! Here they are:

The Judges
Juliet - I'm a Jen fan! I love her wall art. She can come and do mine anytime!
I saw the previews and thought it was a great idea, I can't wait to see their work.
I admire Vern Yip and David Bromstad's work, glad they're part of the program. Can't wait to see Cynthia Rowley, love her clothes.

That's great! I've never seen that commercial.
It will a fun blog on Monday mornings!!
