Ok, I was looking around and didn't see any topics about the show Trading Spaces. Maybe I am just a freak but I LOVE that show! I don't know what it is (well maybe a lot of it is TY..heheh) but I watch it whenever I can (which sadly isn't too often). Does anyone else love that show?

 

[Erin_S2S]

I do! While you were out and Changing rooms are pretty nifty too. Plus how can you not love Ty?

 

[candycane02]

EXACTLY!!! Ty is just so darn sexy..hehehe..I like those other shows too...which i got to watch them more, but I am the only one in my family who likes them, though my mom doesnt mind (grr..need money to move out..anyone want to donate? hehehe)

 

[GhostUser]

I love all of the shows mentioned above. I haven't seen them for awhile because I've been gone a lot

But yeah, I love 'em.

I love Trading Spaces, too. I also love the British one, Changing Rooms. I like the Brit's Handy Andy more than I like Ty. I think it's cause Ty, though he's nice looking, seems to have this attitude. Has anyone ever noticed that Amy Wynn will work and work and work and do so without complaining? But...Ty seems like he's always complaining about some project that he's been given?

FYI: I live in the same town as Frank and I got to meet him in person, twice. The first time was in Office Depot and I acted like a total babbling idiot! The second time, I saw him at Starbucks. We actually sat (well, he sat, I stood) outside and drank our coffee together and had a very nice conversation. I discovered that in the history of his being on TS, he always goes to the Starbucks closest to my home to prepare for ALL the shows. That's what he was doing when I saw him there that day. I even know where he lives, etc. It's pretty cool!

I love Trading Spaces! Frank is my favorite. I love all his country designs. I have all this ideas now for my own home if I ever get to live someplace else besides apartment buildings.

 

[candycane02]

I don't think Ty's that bad at complaining. I have seen him do it a few times, but he only has two days to make the stuff, and usually the designers want it done by the first day, plus a lot of the stuff he says is meant to be humerous, and not taken seriously. I don't really like Amy Wynn that much. I don't think that her work is all that great and she messes up quite a bit of stuff, but hey that is just my opinion. hehehe

I LOVE Ty! I don't think he complains NEAR as much as Handy Andy from Changing Rooms, but I really dig Handy Andy, too.

I like Changing Rooms much better than Trading Spaces...I think I would let any of them except Michael Jewett decorate my room, but I wouldn't let Frank or Hildie or Doug come within 100 feet of my residence. I dig Vern, though.

As far as Amy Wynn goes--she does what she's told and not very well. Ty actually embellishes stuff if the designers tell him--he designed a very cool entertainment center for Vern.

For all you ladies who think Ty is sexy...hate to make you jealous, but I met him!! He's even sexier in person.

 

[candycane02]

if you go to www.tythehandyguy.com you can see stuff that he designed himself and makes, and you can actually buy it. THere is this really cool rope side table sofa thing that i love! And I agree with you about the designers. I would definetly want Vern!!! Although my second choice would probably be genevive (can't spell sorry). I would love to work with Frank though..he seems like a lot of fun..vern would be too, but I would rather have him doing my room.

I love Trading Spaces AND While You Were Out. ^____^

 

[GhostUser]

I LOVE trading spaces!!

 

[Verbivore]

Well, I'm glad nobody else likes Amy Wynn because she's *my* imaginary TV girlfriend.

 

[ceryna]

I like the girl who helps out on WYWO, not the hostess, but the one who does a lot of the sewing work (among other things).

 

[GhostUser]

Vern is the only one I would let loose on my house, but I like Frank as a person, and Ty does really good,inventive work.

 

[Erin_S2S]

I would want John Bruce to work on my house. I don't know if he does Trading Spaces, but I've seen him on While You Were Out. That tantric love temple he did was great. How did he come up with that idea for the barbie dolls?!

 

[aarealskei]

I would love to have Vern do my house or maybe even Edward. I don't think I have ever seen a room done by either one of these guys that I didn't like.

 

[candycane02]

There is one person that I really don't like the designs of ..i don't remember her name but she is the only black lady on there I believe, although I am not sure since I havn't kept up to well with the new shows. I have seen like 2 or 3 houses that she has done and I didn't like any of them! and the lady with the red hair, i should know her name but i have forgotten it, she can do some ok stuff, but I would not trust her, and her ideas are pretty bland and/or ugly most the time..just my opinion though..

 

[StvSpl]

I LOVE TRADING SPACES

i would have either vern or hilde design my room... or maybe genevieve! ooh yeah that would be cool!

 

[muppetcow]

I don't know her name either, candycane, but I like the black woman's designs. They're kind of funky and out there, but livable, whereas Doug and Hildie's designs are definitely NOT livable. Anybody see the one where Hildie glued straw to the walls? WTF was that? ! ?

 

[candycane02]

yeah..I am not too funky of a type of person, but if you like that kind of design then hers are great.....they arn't ugly or anything...that is just not my type of designs...i really like dark reds, camels, and colors like that..typical vern styles..lol..and I do like the modern look, but I also like the raw wood look...but no matter what I am pretty basic..so that is probably why I don't enjoy her designs..but she is fun on there.
