This is one of the first times I've clicked on their blog.

They suuuuuuure to have a knack for dragging out a post, huh? Holy crap.

[cville]

Is that white paint on an otherwise lovely table? That looks like the "snowflakes" I used to cut out of notebook paper and tape all over my parents' windows.

[pinkroses]

This is not a bitch eating crackers situation.  That "project" is horrific.  The table had so much potential and she doodled on it with a Sharpie.

But really. WTF is that?


Sharpied flower marker drawings on an old beat up nightstand? In a modern nursery with bike prints on the wall??



WHAT??

[Deleted]

No. That table is just bad.

I just feel like everything they do is like a failed project from that old design show where you swapped rooms with your neighbor and the insane designers did things like make your living room look like an authentic yurt, only with more fabulous textiles. Remember that show?

They always did shit like this, like stenciling up all the furniture and etc and it always looked on-the-fly and vaguely cheap.

Trading Spaces!

Trading Spaces!  I loveed that show and the random ass designs that came from it. I remember one where they hot glued hay to the walls.

That was Hildy, right? I used to love that show.  lolz

I like the table but I wish they just fixed it up and left it plain.

[cville]

That's SHARPIE?

Oh, hell no. Now I'm pissed. I love Sharpie. I knew Sharpie. And that, sir, is no good use of a Sharpie.

Haha yes! I think Hildy (sp?) was the designer on that one. Vern was my favorite on that show.

[chiclet]

It's hideous and goes with nothing in the nursery.

I make fun of them but I generally still like them. However, this is atrocious. I actually opened the blog this morning and thought "please let someone post this on ML". That table was an awesome find and had so much potential and then that happened.

They always talk about how John still networks so he can go back to work if the blog ends. Maybe Sheri needs to go back to work though. His projects are a lot less "WTF were you thinking" and helpful than hers.

That was my first thought.  I'd have killed everyone involved DEAD if they did that shit to my house.  DEAD DEAD DEAD.  I would love a "where are they now" on that episode.

[Deleted]

Lol. I thought it was white-out.

[nomad100]

If you are going to do a faux inlaid table, own it.  Like this DIY version by Kim Myles www.kimmyles.com/blog/categories/diy/indian-inlay-how  NMS but still pretty damn amazing, I think.



Don't use a paint pen to free hand it and use homemade craft craptastic stencils.

[rupertpenny]

This might be the worst yet. At least the other stuff the mess up wasn't good to begin with. That table was cute.

Yes!  Hildy had some horrible designs.

Awwwwwwwwwwww... C'mon now....

 OR  OR


Wasn't there an episode where the wife walked in and just started to cry? That was great TV. Like "change it baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!"

[angelaa73]

Hahah this is exactly the opposite of bitch eating crackers territory. And duh, it goes in the nursery by it looks like a 3 yr old did it!

Fug fug fug

I would have been DEAD DEAD DEAD.  Having horrible allergies has it's up side when you live on a farm - zero time spend hauling hay.

[KKD]

Why, Sherry, WHY?!

[angelaa73]

Somebody find the plaster hand casts for the mantle! And where is frank with a stencil above the door about food or something?

[demelza]

This is bad. Gas station egg bad.

What. The . Fuck. 

[kermit]

That table is seriously ugly now. I get that it might have been too far gone to just leave it, but at that point they should have just painted it a solid color. The lines of it don't go with the room anyway. Hideous.

[thebuddhagouda]

It looks like an 8th grader's doodle pad

[Kit]

They really need to just stop. Seriously. Just stop.

[Deleted]

I'm sort of offended by the table.
