I told you all about HGTV’s Restored by the Fords show a while back in a post here. Brother and sister team who renovate homes in Pennsylvania. She has a sassy style and he executes her fabulous signature. Great ideas on re-purposing, refinishing, redoing, remodeling, you get the jig…Very much worth your time to watch it if you haven’t already.
Here is her Project 62 lighting line for Target. I love the look in very small doses.
Your design inspiration assignment for the week is to watch this show. A few of us Stager Girls are loving it.
HAPPY WEEKEND!

I just watched an episode of Restored by the Ford's and loved it! It is a sister and brother team remodeling their way through Pittsburgh. She dreams up creative design ideas and he makes it happen. She reuses and re-purposes pieces from the home or even has floors patched up. Which is a look all on it's own. Her vibe is a "modern yet lived in" look. And white is her favorite "go-to" color.
“We search out Pittsburgh for the coolest homes, the stranger, the weirder, the more unique, the better,” Steve said. “And then Leanne comes in and puts her spin on it, and I go to work.” By: Jessica Galliart for HGTV

Give it a watch and prepare to be inspired.
We are in luck! We all have a chance to enter the HGTV Dream Home Sweepstakes that is here in Washington. It is a beautiful getaway for us city dwellers in Gig Harbor Washington. Voted one of the best small towns in America. I AM IN!
The spaces in and outside of the home were designed by Brian Patrick Flynn. And everything was purchased online!
Enter daily to win this incredible home. Visit their site to purchase any of the items in the home. How easy is that? I am planning to win so look in the mail for your invitation to my new home. Ha!
So many of us have been fans of Chip & Joanna's show Fixer Upper for 5 years (or 5 seasons that is). I even got the husband to sit down with me and watch it and actually enjoy it. Their new show Behind the Design goes into more design detail and staging! The woodworker that they use, Clint Harp, even got his own show.
These shows are important to us Stager Girls because it's what our clients see. Home Buyers and Sellers see the transformation of homes on these shows and want to "wow" and be "wowed" when buying & selling homes as well. We staged a home for a client and she said "just do it like JoJo would". I think it was one of our top 10 favorite projects because we had the challenge of infusing her style in our work.
There is also, Erin & Ben Napier who fix up homes in the South. Their show is called Home Town.
But the show I am most excited about is a designer, blogger, author, Lauren Liess who I have been following for years. I love her style, love that she works so hard and is pregnant with her 5th child!
She has written a design book, moved several times, designed rooms in show houses, blogged and all the things designers do. The pilot has been approved and now we all just need to love it.
