Heh. If it didn't get destroyed, it's in for some SERIOUS rehab. Trading Spaces wouldn't touch it with a 10-foot measuring tape.
Hildi would. Hell, she probably did the set.
Well, Hildy is the devil. So yeah, she probably *would* rehab the Hellmouth. A few throw pillows, reupholster an old chair, staple some LPs to the walls, and you're good to go.
And straw. Mustn't forget the straw.
Straw would burn up in a Hellmouth, though. Even the (new) Globe theatre in London had to fireproof the thatched roof to avoid the fate of its predecessor.

Not to mention the bas relief of her ass made from the bones of the dead.
And the hot pink spray paint for the rugs and upholstery. And the thick black curtains to block out all of that nasty natural light. And the shards of glass for the kids' area ("Just tell them not to touch it!")
Maybe she can get Kia to contribute a Hellmouth-shaped fountain.
Do they make demonic-themed wallpaper borders?
Hey! And don't forget Hildi's "staple fake flowers to the walls of a bathroom in a humid region of the United States, overlooking all questions about cleanability and the fact that you've just created the most wonderful habitat for every insect known to man, as well it looking like an acid trip gone very bad."
It's just a shame there's no architectural detail left to take a sledgehammer to.
Just thinking about this. Everytime I catch a Buffy rerun on FX and stop and watch it and someone asks me to either turn it or leave the house I still balk. They say something like "it's not like you haven't seen it 5 times already". I usually reply, "no, I haven't seen this one yet, in a joking manner." When in all actuality it is probably more than 5 times. There is only one episode that I have watched only once "Selfless" (still keeping it in mint condition for a rainy day) and only one from S-6 that I have just seen twice(Halloween), just always works out that I never catch that one on reruns.
