Rating: - Trading Spaces - A Breath Of Fresh Air!
I'm a huge fan of TLC's "Trading Spaces". I love the concept (based on the fabulous BBC show "Changing Rooms") and I love the designers (they really are the ones that make this show a hit) and I love home design. BUT - if you are looking for a HOW TO book. This isn't for you.... this is a fun and gossipy book ABOUT the designers, carpenters and host Paige Davis. If you want HOW TO tips, wait until later this year when THAT book comes out. This book if full of profiles, home pictures, tales and reviews of each of the designers and their most famous rooms. It's a fun look inside their lives and recommendations. It's a marketing person's dream :) It's fluff --- but in a good way. It's a great soft sided book that takes your mind off more serious topics of the day. My favorite spotlights are Hildi (it really shows her softer and sweeter side) and my all time fav. groovy girl Genevieve. She's such a wonderful free spirit. BUT - without a doubt, my crush on Vern's talent is even greater after reading about him in this book. "Trading Spaces - Behind The Scenes" is just a great pick me up and I enjoyed every minute of it!
Rating: - The Stars of Trading Spaces
The book is an inside look at the designers and others who appear on the TV show. It is not meant to be a "How To" book. Within the scope of its purpose, it does well. It shows many pictures and gives a lot of information about the people. It's a sort of introduction to the show through its stars and does a good job of showing their personalities, quirks, & mess ups. It does show a little about the rooms that have been decorated on the show and has a list with comments about every show at the end of the book. It also does show a few tips about decorating. There are two more books scheduled to be published that will be more like decorating "How To".
Rating: - What a crew!
I love watching Trading Spaces -- especially because the hilarious, creative cast! This book gives each cast member a chapter to really shine! All the designers are covered, plus carpenters Ty and Amy Wynn, and host Paige Davis. There are a lot of facts, funny stories, and personal pictures (Doug Wilson's baby pic is a hoot!) for each cast member. While I wish there were more "tips and tricks" like the cover promises, I'm hopeful that the future books on decorating projects will take care of this.Also, the Episode Guide in the back of book is really cool. It covers EVERY single episode of the show through about halfway through the 3rd season-- plus is tells you when homeowners cry or the designers have a "diva fit". I thought I'd seen all the episodes, but it turns out I missed several in the 1st season that sound really funny.
