See all Episodes

Host Joan Steffend and Nadia Ramirez make over a little boy's bedroom into a pirate's paradise. They paint the plain white walls the color of the deep blue sea, then use a wallpaper border with a "lost treasure" theme. Even the bed has a charming pirate-ship look, with the duvet as the deck of the boat, a headboard that is shaped like the ship's bow and a footboard for the stern. In Trash to Treasure, Robb Whittlef shares how to create an oversized wood mirror out of dentil molding, a hanging chandelier out of a birdcage and an ottoman out of a cast-iron stove bottom. Then, Joan Steffend tours a home that is filled with a combination of beautiful pieces and thrift-store finds. Finally, Nadia Ramirez shows the basics for designing a game-themed rug.
