Blog Cabin Season 7 Episode 4 Carolina in my Mega Den
- August 19, 2013
Blog Cabin season 7, Episode 4 takes us on a journey to Carolina where a mega den awaits transformation. This episode features the transformation of a den in a home in North Carolina. The den is situated on the top floor of a large home, and it is desperately in need of renovation.
The episode starts with a walk-through of the existing den as it stands. We see the old furniture, drapes, and decor in place. Next up we meet the hosts of the show. They introduce themselves and explain the objective of the show - to transform the den into a cozy, comfortable, modern living space that matches the homeowners' vision.
We then get to meet the homeowners, who take us through their vision for the space. They are a young couple, and their priority is creating a warm, cozy space that works perfectly for them but is also welcoming to their friends and family.
The team gets down to business, and the first step is clearing out all the existing furniture, drapes, and decor. The homeowners and the hosts work together to come up with a plan for the new layout, which involves demolishing some walls and creating new ones.
Next up, the team starts with the drywall and joins it with the existing structure. The ceilings are also being painted in new colors and patterns to match the new decor. After that, the insulation is added to ensure the room stays warm during winter months.
The next part of the project involves drywall work, which is completed followed by electrical work. The wiring is cut, designed and fixed for the lighting fixtures, location of outlets, and the new fireplace. Speaking of which, one of the major projects is installing a beautiful new fireplace that adds texture and life to the den.
After the electrical work is completed, the team starts on the flooring. The homeowners have chosen a beautiful hardwood floor, which is installed throughout the den. Hand-in-hand with this comes in the task of staining and polishing to give the flooring a smooth finish.
Next is the design phase. This is when the homeowners and hosts collaborate to select new furniture, drapes, and decor to match the new layout of this modern space. There are discussions to make the space more spacious for the couple and guests. The selected furniture and decor speaks to the wants and desires of the homeowners and guides the viewers on the use of transition pieces, statement pieces, and colors to bring out the desired mood.
Once the furniture and decor have been selected and shipped, the team starts putting everything into place. First up, the lighting fixtures are installed, including some stylish new lamps and wall sconces. The selected artwork decor pieces are also hanged, and a matching channel groove is created. This magically brings the room to life.
The next step is arranging the furniture, placing bumper channels, and wall-mounting the television at a perfect angle. The pieces are perfectly placed for a cozy chat, movie night, and a welcoming atmosphere.
After final touches on the decor and layout, a final walkthrough is done by the homeowners to check if everything is in place. After they are satisfied with everything, the project is declared complete, and the space is wonderfully transformed!
The episode ends with a beautiful reveal of the new space to the homeowners. The couple is thrilled and excited to make memories in the new space with family and friends. The transformation indeed exceeded their expectations. It was a successful and rewarding experience. The hosts and the entire crew are elated with the result too.
