Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Was the Freestyle conceit (didn't read link, am lazy) that it was all done with stuff found around the house already?
Yup. Except it turns out that the sooper-seekrit conceit is that it's all stuff found around the house already plus whatever one large item of furniture the householder agrees to buy at his/her own expense on the designer's orders, and if the householder doesn't want to play along then, presumably, the householder doesn't get to do the show. Humph.
Plus a sooper-seekrit $200 budget for incidentals like votive candles and extra pillows and stuff that the designer then just happens to find lying around your place. @@
Totally @@.
msbelle around? DUDE. I'm watching the BB from last night, and you can go vote for who you want on the show!!!!!
There's a show on A&E called "Find & Design" where they go to flea markets and yardsales and such to redesign a room. During one of yardsales, they approached us to "buy" something from our yardsale. They had really just purchased it from Pier1 and wanted to plant it in our piles of stuff and then "buy it" from us.

And then you can feel like a Ginourmous Dork when you realize that you voted for Chicken George.
Not that I would know or anything.
Fucking Chicken George. I swear to god, if it's Chicken George and Cowboy and Mike Boogie, I'm boycotting. Oh, or Allison.

Would you get the money? I mean, they should be buying your silence.
I'd be interested to see what they could do with what I have. I might even agree to replace/add one piece of furniture. Maybe. If I were feeling flush. The $200 extra budget is CHEATING.

Eh -- the whole point of going on TV is for the free stuff!
I kind of like Chicken George.
He's named after a Chicken!!
