Design Star Season 4: Where Are They Now?

Jason makes up for his princess room disaster on Design Star with this beautifully pink makeover.

Did you participate in any events or get a specific job because of the show?
Yes, I was able to lend my celebrity to a charity close to my heart, Habitat for Humanity. I was able to secure funds from IKEA and Target to make one family's dreams come true.

A big supporter of Habitat for Humanity, Jason designs an inviting living room for a deserving family.

Have you kept in touch with fellow contestants?
Of course! Jen, Torie, Lonni, Nathan and Antonio. Jen and I have worked on a project in Sarasota. Nathan is showcasing my furniture in his new store, MESH. Torie has called in on a hospital visit I was making to a young girl name Maddy, a fan of Design Star, who has Cystic Fibrosis.

With help from Target and IKEA, Jason also creates a serene master bedroom retreat.
