Designer Spotlight - Magnolia by Chip and Joanna Gaines

So, it might seem strange, but I plan to spotlight OTHER designers on my blog.  I don't pretend to be the only one around with good ideas.  One of my favorite channels is HGTV.  If you're reading this, chances are you might like it too.  

I have a new favorite show on HGTV.  It's called Fixer Upper.  Have you seen it yet?  It's just great for so many reasons!  For one thing, the hosts, husband and wife team, Chip and Joanna Gaines, are just adorable.  Joanna does all the design and Chip does all the dirty work.  They are not only incredibly talented, but super cute together.  Second, they are based out of Waco, Texas.  I would not have thought this would be a good thing, but I'm telling you, IT IS!  Their clients buy these beautiful but often totally dilapidated historical homes for like $60,000.00.  You can't even get a trailer for that around here.  Then they put $100,000.00 or so into it and voila, gorgeousness ensues!!  Check out the project from episode 1.

There are even more beautiful rooms featured in this home.  And everything they do is just as good.  I love how they makeover the entire house, outside, inside, top to bottom.  I would describe her style as a bit shabby chic meets industrial farmhouse.  I love it.  All the episodes are available right now On Demand, if you have Comcast.  They also have an great website and blog.  Go check it out!
