Old & New

Toni is a single mom who mixes comedy and her legal practice in a business called "Fun with Law" which provides workshops, training and entertainment for lawyers. She's a very funny and energetic mother of an 11-year-old boy named Branch. She works out of her home (a 1930s Cape Cod style house) and since she spends so much time there, she'd love to update the kitchen. The original maple cabinets are great, but the peeling painted sub-floor, needs help. Her kitchen nook has been taken over by a makeshift recycling center and most meals are eaten at a tiny butcher-block cart in the center of the room. Plus, the range and refrigerator wall is in desperate need of cabinetry. A photo in a magazine inspired Toni, now we want to help her bring that look to her kitchen.

Rental Revival

When Leif got a new job in California, he decided to rent out his home while he tested the waters on the West Coast. After a year, he decided to return to home. Unfortunately, the place was an unrecognizable pigsty. His renters had trashed the place and he had to pick up the pieces. Elbow grease, drywall mud, paint and carpet fixed a lot, but the only thing that could really fix the already outdated kitchen was a sledgehammer. So Leif tore things apart and Paul Ryan is going to help him put it back together-all in a cool, contemporary style.
