How about the one where Hildie stapled multi colored silk flowers all over bathroom walls. I think she even painted the beautiful wood cabinets gold.

These fails remind me why I switched majors out of art. Weird for weirdness sake is ridiculous. Don’t inflict your imagination on others - phuck up your OWN space.

I'm always surprised people who sign up to do this show think they are going to get a basic remodel. I would NEVER let a designer in my house without showing me what they are going to do.

My 9 year old cousins could do all of these with 1 trip to Hobby Lobby

“It’s organic” That sent me into another dimension

Yeah the basic premise is the designers amuse themselves by destroying someone’s house and then walking away because it’s not their problem. The hay and the flowers on the walls are especially horrific because she’s literally left food for vermin all over the walls. The houses will quickly become infested with insects and mice but that’s the homeowners’ problem! I mean I have limited sympathy for the homeowners because they set themselves up for this just so they can get on television…but I still think it’s horrific that these designers intentionally do awful things that they would never do to themselves or any paying client.

From what I read, there is A LOT of peer pressure and misinformation going on. For example, in one show I remember the unhappy couple saying that they didn't want to do the show but their neighbors REALLY wanted to be on it and assured them they'd keep the designer from doing anything awful. Then, they'd further get pressured by the neighbors and producers not to have too many "hard and fast' rules about what couldn't be touched or you wouldn't get picked. And, finally, the intake interviewer talks to them like they'll have a lot of say in the design of their home by asking questions like what they like and don't like, what is their vision, what are they most afraid of, etc. The home owners felt like they'd be protected by their neighbors and the producers. HA!

I hope none of their friends or family are allergic to hay. Half my family wouldn't be able to visit if it were my house.

Now I know damn well she did not just eat that wall hay ….

There wasn't one nice room in the bunch. 🤢 Hildy was the worst. She was so self-absorbed that she would do the opposite of the homeowner's wishes. Paige used to drive me nuts, too. The way she would hold their hands and hang on them was cringy. I liked Vern and Laurie's designs the best. I'd be curious to see what I'd think now. I watched every single episode back then. That's because it was the only show of its kind at the time. Now there are so many design shows to choose from that are MUCH better.

"We don't want this" Too bad, once our designer gets inspired, they do what they want..... To YOUR house

I personally like the fireplace better afterwards, but it’s not mine. It’s theirs. That’s the point. They should have used the fireplace as inspiration for the rest of the room and left it alone. I distinctly remember this episode and came to KZread to find it.

Hay on the walls is crazyyyyyy😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀

They are missing, what I think was the worst episode of all. The homeowners had just put in new hardwood flooring. They were so proud of it and Doug decided to paint border all around the room in this new hardwood. The homeowners had been adamant about not touching the hardwood floors. I was so upset for them, at the reveal. Those floors cost thousands of dollars and Doug just *ruined* them for a flipping TV show! That wasn’t something that was easily dismantled or repaired after all the crew left. After that episode, I lost faith in both Doug and Hildy being good designers. I learned a lot watching the show over the years and tried to watch the remake of the show but when I found out Hildy was back for it, I just couldn’t do it. On a side note, I loved the older designer guy. He was funny, kind and tried his best to compassionate with everyone he worked with.

Been a long time since I've watched, are you talking about Frank? He was more of a country look designer. Very calm and a great listener. Seemed like a real nice guy

I'm certain Pixar based Joy from "Inside Out" on Paige Davis.

Omg yes lol

Never realized how terrible these rooms were

Hilda should have been fired from that show…she was a complete disaster. It was like she deliberately messed up rooms.

I remember the hay one when it was on. I felt bad for anyone who got Hildi

I remember watching this when I was a kid. My grandma and I would have actual visceral reactions to Hildy’s BS

WHY THE HAY 😣

If I found out Doug or Hildy were the designers of my room, that's an immediate NO! They had to of does stuff just for drama to keep show going

Hildy is one of the reasons to not go on Trading Spaces

Doug also

I hated this show. The designers were so disrespectful to the poor homeowners. And often the designs looked like garbage

The wild thing is, at one point they had this special where they showed you a bit of each designer's home. Hildi's was all white and completely boring. I know they obviously hired her and Doug to be like the villains of the show, but I still think some of the stuff they did was pretty cruel. It's not featured here, but other f*cked up sh*t they did included: making a circus tent room with sand on the floor, a room where everything was on the ceiling, a room that Doug made look like a prison cell, and finally one he called "White Whoa" where he painted everything white. It was especially sad because the couple who owned that house had been painstakingly restoring all the wood finishes.

I’m sure they are all ‘good’ friends now.

.... I gotta say, the hay on the wall shit was idiotic. It looks like shit and it's not even gonna last, I wouldn't be happy about that either. The rusted wall (wtf?!) was wack, it's gonna change color over time and it's gonna leave brown scuffs on your clothing when you brush up against it. Who the fuck wants an entire wall made of real rust. The fireplace... yeah, it looks good, but they SPECIFICALLY said to not touch that 1 thing, and they did it anyway. "You guys are gonna be fixin' that in a little bit" indeed, if they don't, that sounds like a lawsuit to me. It's especially ridiculous since I think the old fireplace would have looked perfectly good enough before the modification.

@stealthbeastgaming, the fireplace was reversible, according to what they said.

The crying in the background by Pam was hilarious.

I would have ended up getting sued for breach of contract because the minute I found out Hildi was doing my house, I'd have refused to go forward. She was ridiculous.. orange carpet, silk flowers covering an entire bathroom, a "circus" family room, broken vinyl records glued to the walls, HAY ON THE WALLS! It's someone's home, not an avant garde entry in an art school exhibit!

Hildy was a menace. Would be funny to see all those homeowners she terrorized go to her house and do all the same bad design ideas there. Same for Doug.
