Trading Spaces

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve got an empty family room in need of furniture and decorating, but lately my favorite show on television has been Trading Spaces — it’s actually a bit of a guilty pleasure for me. It’s one of the few things that make paying the high cost of cable tv almost worth it. In case you haven’t seen the show, two friends or neighbors (with the help of an interior designer and a carpenter) swap houses for two days and completely redo a room in their friend’s house. The fun part is the owners don’t get to see the design until all the work is done.

Okay it’s stupid, and some of the designers creations are a bit out there, but it sure looks like a lot of fun. Anyone want to trade spaces with me?
