  • Exotic Retreat by Design
  • From "DIY to the Rescue"
    episode DTTR-307F


    With the cabinet refaced and a new floor in place, the DIY to the Rescue crew has even more exotic touches to add. The couple works on the painting the walls overnight and new crown moldings are added before a stenciled motif completes the walls. Next, an old pine dresser receives a coat of paint to match the moldings and a new pine top is installed. The crew installs a new ceiling fan, light fixtures and beaded window treatments to complete the look.
