15 Design Ideas So Good, HGTV Stars Use Them In Their Own Homes
It's no secret the stars of your fave HGTV shows are givers. It's why we love them! They design, renovate and decorate dream homes, no matter the clientele. But have you ever wondered which decorating ideas they save for their own living spaces? Naturally, we have — so we conducted some research and rounded up the best of 'em. Ahead, you'll find easy ways to fab up your own space, inspired by the homes of HGTV hosts themselves.
To fit the style of her colorful-meets-eclectic Huntington Beach home, Help! I Wrecked My House host Jasmine Roth pulled out a hodgepodge of chairs from her storage unit to sit at her simple dining table. The mismatched seating offers a casual ambiance for weeknight family dinners, but the look can be elevated for holiday entertaining when needed. A funky striped rug ties it all together.
A wasted cubby under the stairs became a cool play area for Jasmine's daughter, Hazel. Jasmine installed custom built-in shelving, which displays books as well as Hazel's prettier toys (like her dollhouse). The lower cabinetry hides clutterful items. With durable fabric on the sofa, easy-to-clean porcelain tile floors and a larger-than-life word search game on the wall, the rest of the room is kid-friendly, too.
There's a reason Jonathan Knight's HGTV show is called Farmhouse Fixer. It's because he does just that — fixes farmhouses. For one of his own personal projects, he moved his family's 100-year-old farmhouse to a plot of land down the street, then gave it the curb appeal makeover it deserved. Jon installed a herringbone brick walkway to welcome guests inside, while his designer partner in crime, Kristina Crestin, painted the front door marigold yellow to highlight the home's rich green siding and trim.
