Iam thinking of adding on to the entire house, to make every room 10 feet larger.thats how the house needed to be built in the first place. if i win , thats what we will do . thank you
as i said , i would add to the entire house, why, because its to small.
I love HGTV. I watch it often there are so many beautifully decorated rooms. I enjoy looking at houses being remodeled or refurbished. I can only imagine how wonderful my house could look if I can ever bring out the beauty in it. The curb qppeals are great on HGTV. I have learned a lot from watching HGTV. I am a little more knowledgeable when talking with a contractor or selecting materials. Going along for a ride with HGTV has boosted my pride. Watching HGTV is very relaxing and stress free for me. I enjoy traveling the US and foreign countries with HGTV. The houses rooms and gardens transformations are amazing on HGTV. Thanks for the great programs on HGTV.

HGTV is my very favorite site. I will use the money to redo dated kitchen and redo bath to accomadite my disabled veteran husband. HGTV is so much fun to watch and think how I would love doing the things that get done on different shows. Cable news is getting so mean and depressing that it is a great joy to have HGTV and watch the transformation done on the different shows. Thank you HGTV you are such a popular informative station.
I watch your show every day. It allows me to dream as well as be happy for all those you help to change living styles. I live in Michigan and it gets cold! I live in an old house so the original windows make my heat bill jump! Needless to say, an entire house of new windows would proivde a skip to my heart and a warm place for my son who lives with me. He is 35, has mental retardation and autism. To dream beyond windows of warmth would allow me to extend my living space to welcome his friends and other families with people who have disabilities. I learn from your show. Color is important, placement of things is important, but most of all the love that “lives” in the homes your wonderful design artists share when they work with families is a joy to watch! Thank you for the contest and all the other good work that comes from HGTV.
I love to watch HGTV (it is what I wathc the majority of the time) and often see so many things I would like to do to my home. Being a single mother and having two children in college, I don’t have the money or time to do most of the things I would like. I have often thought of things I would like to do–new wood floors, granite countertops, bathroom remodel, central air, and there are many repairs that are needed. I would have to prioritize if I won. But my dream would be to have Candice Olsen decorate my whole house.
Bathrooms in need of renovation.
I would like hardwood floors.
Finish replacing enegy saving windows.
Adding a room between the garage and the house.
I love everything on hgtv. I have absolutely no gift when it comes to decorating. That’s why I’m in such “awe” of all the designers. But like thousands of people, Candace Olsen just takes my breathe away, everytime I watch her do magic when she transforms a room. I’ve lived in my very small home for 35yrs. Every room is rundown. I use to love to have holidays here. But now, I’m too ashamed to have people over. Which makes me so sad. OH-what a dream it would be to have Candace come & do her magic at my house. Watching hgtv is such fun, because you get a chance to see so many people change their lives & be proud of where they live. Thank you for that. Barbara E. Williams
I entered for this and was hoping that maybe my name was here for a finalist. I didn’t know about it until October 2 and entered and it was and happened to be last day. Just my luck but did get in I can say that much.
I have absolutely no luck when entering these type of things. I purchsed my home about three years ago after moving from California to be closer to parents. My husband and I have had to repeatedly have my father come and stay with us do to his declining health. We had planned to paint our living room and then find out what going on with our upstairs bathroom and later on we would like to update and expand our kithen space. Currently we have our two son’s staying with us do do the economy and our daughter just had surgery and finally started back working, but is in need of financal assistance. Do not get me wrong, I have been blessed just to have acquired our house and even if I am not chosen I will remain focused and take care of my family
dear hgtv
I have dreamed of redoing my inlaws kitchen since we spent out honey moon in there newly bouse over 10 years ago. the kitchen is dated to some time in the 50’s and has done nothing but fall apart on them more and more each year. we resently moved in with them and sad to say that now we have 5 people who cant really cook iv always dreamed of being able to cook but never had a budget to pratice with. if we won i would up date my inlaw kitchen and the back yard for my 2 year old and make it kid safe since they have a pool. if any money is left i would adopt a baby girl that my husband and i dream about .
My husband has traveled for his job as a railroader all of our marriage. He has missed watching his children grow up and has made many sacrifices in order to provide for his family, sometimes traveling as far as 15 hours away from home. After working a 10-12 hour working day, he sometimes had to drive 15 hours just to spend one day with us before having to travel 15 hours back.
We are purchasing a 4 acre piece of land with a foreclosure on it. IT is in terrible shape, and needs to be completely gutted on the inside, and needs a new roof immediately. But it has always been his dream to have some land to raise bees on, and to have a small garden.
We are buying it for a pretty good price, but it will take every cent we have with no money left for repairs.
I would love to give my husband a nice home to retire in so that he can take a much deserved break from the very hard physical labor that he has endured for 34 years. One of the unsung heros of America, a railroader.
