We recently had the opportunity to chat with the hilarious Listed Sisters at our office. You won't believe what these ladies had to say.
1: They live within walking distance of each other.
Alana: I live like a mile from her, so I’m always like, "Hey sis, what are you doing? I’m coming over."
2: They’ve got music in their blood.
Alana: We come from a musical background from our dad. I play the flute. I’m not great, but I played for like 15 years.
Lex: But she just picked up guitar, and she is very good at it already!
Alana: Thanks sis, for saying I’m very good at it, but I am pretty good. I also sing in the car, not great, but I’m practicing.
Lex: Actually she’s a pretty good singer and just started writing songs. So it’s just a little thing she’s doing, but she’s good at it!

3: Alana claims she has no style.
Alana: I don’t have style. My apartment’s literally got a couch in it. And the fact that I call it a couch and not a sofa shows you how much I am not a designer.
4: Lex is an expert whistler!
Lex: I’m a really good whistler. My whistle is so good that I whistle while I work, and people are always like, "Wow!"
5: They weren’t popular in high school.

Alana: I used to be the shyest person in the world. I wouldn’t have been able to have a conversation with you. And we weren’t popular in school.
Lex: We were nerdy and dressed really poorly. We were the most unpopular kids in school.
6: Lex has an aversion to barn doors.

Lex: It’s just so trendy. It makes me a little bit crazy.
Alana: She’s very city. I’m more country.
Lex: Maybe if they called them sliding doors instead of sliding barn doors…
7: They both have major travel plans.
Lex: I want to go to Paris with my daughter. I need to eat French pastries with her. She’s obsessed lately. She’s six, and she said she wants to move to Paris to be a ballerina. And she might let her brother visit.
Alana: I want to travel to Peru — Machu Picchu. My son said there are more potatoes there than anywhere in the world!

8: They don’t mind being compared to the Property Brothers.
Alana: We happen to be born twins, and I guess we’re just trying to copy them! But really we love them and their shows. I actually started watching HGTV because of them.
Lex: And they inspired us to think about having a show together.
Alana: Inspired you. The show was her idea.
9: Alana always carries a knife.
Alana: It’s like a knife that you flip out to cut things — not people! Everyone’s always like, "What are you going to do with that knife?" And I’m like, "Watch."
10: Lex is obsessed with permanent markers.
Lex: I always have to have a Sharpie on me. Always. And they come in handy more often than you would think.
11: Sometimes they argue (they are sisters after all.)
Lex: Alana’s always trying to give me design ideas, and I’m like, "No, shhh."
Alana: Well, I have a designer twin sister, and she won’t come to my apartment.
Lex: My house is cute. Alana's house is so small. There's only one bathroom!
12: But really, they’re best friends.

Alana: We lived apart for 10 years actually, so it’s nice now that we live back together, and we get to work together.
Lex: The best part about being a twin is that we got to be born best friends.
13: And last but not least...They’re currently casting for season 2!
