FOR YOUR HOME XXV


Join TV’s most popular DIY duo, mother/daughter Vicki Payne and Sloan Rutter, for the 25th season of For Your Home (FYH)—and the most demanding one ever! For the first time, these do-it-yourself designers do it for a great cause—the 2008 Susan G. Komen Dream Home! Vicki and Sloan share their design expertise and experiences as they show you how to DIY with FYH. This season, however, there’s a catch—only 13 days to decorate and landscape this custom-built 4600-square foot house! In exciting, reality-show style, witness all the planning, coordination, setbacks and teamwork.
