I guess all this finishing of our basement, has gotten me excited about renovations, in general.
I was a fan of some of HGTV's offerings for years now, but lately:
Home & Garden Television(HGTV) has become my new "guilty pleasure".
Favorite shows:
"Bang For Your Buck", where different homeowners' houses are profiled, and recent renovations are compared, to see who got the (most) "bang", for their "buck".
This show is filmed in the lovely metro Atlanta area, as is another compelling series:
"Curb Appeal"--Starring designer John Giddings, he and his team work to create--as the title implies--more appeal, as seen from the curb. Several prominent Atlanta neighborhoods have been seen recently, including Inman Park, and the rising "East Atlanta Village" neighborhood. :)
If you're curious who's doing our own (complete basement finishing)renovations,it's the delightful team of A.B.C.:
Atlanta Basement Creations, headed up by Michael Humin, general contractor.Michael is a joy to work with, and his team is reliable, on time, courteous,meticulous, neat, and..... ahead of schedule!
Back to HGTV:
I also enjoy "Holmes on Homes". A Canadian production, Mr. Holmes corrects previous contractors' mistakes, and rescues homeowners, from their own homes!

Hope you are having a marvelous week!
Peace, kids.
