GIVE US A LITTLE PREVIEW.
WHAT WAS THE ROOM LIKE?

OF CHALLENGES.
OF CHALLENGES. THERE'S CHALLENGES ANYWAY WITH
A BUDGET AND THE TIME, BUT I
HAD A PRETTY BIG ROOM.

TIP THAT YOU CAN OFFER OUR

VIEWERS. SO MANY OF US I MOVED INTO A
HOME A YEAR AGO AND I STILL
HAVE SO MANY THINGS TO DO, BUT
IT CAN BE SO OVERWHELMING.
>> IT CAN BE.
>> SO WHAT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND?
>> SO MY ONE GENERAL TIP IS TO
JUST PUSH YOURSELF A LITTLE BIT
FARTHER, PICK THE SHADE OF
PAINT THAT'S A LITTLE BIT
BOLDER THAN YOU MIGHT GO
BECAUSE RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR
COMFORT ZONE IS WHERE ALL THE
MAGIC HAPPENS.
MAGIC HAPPENS. >> I LOVE THAT.
>> AND YOU KNOW WHAT WE'VE
DONE, A LITTLE BIT OF THAT, AND
IT REALLY MAKES SUCH AN IMPACT.
LIKE YOU SAID, WHEN YOU'RE
THINKING ABOUT HAVING THIS ROOM
OR THIS LOOK FOR YEARS, WHY NOT
PUSH THAT ELEVATOR.
>> BE SAVAGE, NOT AVERAGE,
THAT'S WHAT I SAY.
>> I DIDN'T MAKE THAT UP.
I CAN'T TAKE CREDIT.
>> BUT I LOVE IT.
SO AS WE WERE SAYING, OF COURSE
YOUR CELEBRITY CLIENTS THEY DO
HAVE BIGGER BUDGETS.

TIPS DO YOU HAVE FOR PEOPLE WHO
REALLY CAN'T SPEND A LOT OF
MONEY.

UNDERSTAND.

TONS OF MONEY.
ON THE SHOW OUR BUDGET IS
$2000, WHICH STILL FOR A LOT OF
PEOPLE IS A LOT OF MONEY.

INSTEAD OF GETTING RID OF THEM,
THERE YOU GO, YOU CREATED A
LITTLE END TABLE.

YOUR HOUSE, IF YOU BOUGHT IT
YOUS MOST LIKELY LIKE IT FOR
WHATEVER REASON.
WHATEVER REASON. IF YOU HAVE A COLLECTION OF
HATS, SCARVES, WHAT HAVE YOU,

IT'S SO EASY TO DO.
AND AGAIN, IT'S FREE.

TRYING TO SAY.
THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX, AND
AGAIN, WHETHER IT'S GOING TO

CREATIVE, YOU KNOW.

HOUSE FOR SURE RIGHT NOW THAT
YOU COULD USE.
