Summary: In Some Ways- Better Than Trading Spaces!
Comment: Like many folks out there, I wrote a lot of checks to "professionals" before even thinking I could tackle any type of home improvement myself. Sure, Bob Villa and Norm were out there teaching folks, but they were the ultimate DIY geeks. Just look at the plaid shirts! I didn't even own anything flannel! How could I do it myself? Then Paige entered my life.
Trading Spaces showed me and my wife that we were capable of doing a lot around the house ourselves. If some of the chuckleheads they had on could help Ty or Amy-Wyn without losing digits then there was no reason for us to be afraid of power tools either. Then I discovered HGTV and Design on a Dime.
The projects are completed by professional designers and builders, but they walk the viewer through all steps of design and construction. While Frank may give a couple of hints to the home owners viewers mainly get to watch them rolling paint onto the walls or stuffing pillows. There are loads of great ideas, but no detailed, step by step instruction. (It's not that type of show) After watching an episode of Design on a Dime anyone with half a brain should be able to complete at least one of the projects competantly.
This book is a great companion to the series with detailed, step by step instrucitons on how to complete almost everything in each of the rooms showcased. Thoughts on the mechanics of planning the room are included and the photography is beautifuly done as well.
Check out the show, pick up the book and dust off the hammer and saw. Inspiration is right around the corner.

Summary: So good!
Comment: This book is so good! The TV show is one of my faves, but the book is even better because it has details on the projects the cast creates on the show. The show's cool, the book's cool, and I am definitely happy I got this.

Summary: My favorite Xmas gift
Comment: I bought this with a gift certificate, and I am so glad I did. I never miss Design on a Dime. The rooms are great and the cast is cool. I always want to see more of every episode. I always wish I could pause my TV and study what the designers have done to the rooms. This book lets me do that. In the book I can see more details of rooms from the show, and the book also has detailed information on how to create projects from the show which is a real plus to me. On the show they don't have enough time to show enough "how to" steps. But those steps are in this book. The book captures the fun of the show but offers more than the show itself. It's my favorite Xmas gift.
