Design TV Eve

Sep 12, 2011 By Layla

The team is all here in Suwanee…

…the iPads are all functional and connected…

…my secret weapon is ready to go if I wake up to dark circles tomorrow morning…

…and there’s a sweet, young (newly-married) couple with an outdated living room in their newly-purchased (foreclosure) home…just down the road from our hotel.

Tomorrow is day one of shooting and redoing, and we’re getting pretty excited/anxious to see how it all plays out. Here’s to hoping we can sleep tonight!

If not, I guess we’ll just use a little more secret camouflage than usual.
