		<description><![CDATA[HGTV Magazine always comes through for pages of cool DIY...]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>HGTV Magazine</em> always comes through for pages of cool DIY ideas, budget decorating buys and totally doable redos, but sometimes the greatest inspiration is born from eyeing some seriously stylish homes. We wouldn&#8217;t call it stealing (OK, maybe a little), but being a copycat has never looked better.</p>
<p>These families full of spare-time remodelers, DIY decorators, and everyday homeowners just like you opened their doors for <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv-magazine/package/index.html"><em>HGTV Magazine</em></a>&#8216;s June issue, and we&#8217;re giving you pre-newsstand access. Go ahead: Take these awe-inspiring ideas for your own home. After all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://blog.sndimg.com/hgtv/design/Alyssa/June-cover-blog.jpg" alt="June cover" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left">For most people, finding a vintage yellow stove in the basement of their new home would only pose the question of how to remove the massive appliance. The Stephens family, on the other hand, saw only possibilities in the 20-year-old La Cornue range. They <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/decorating-basics/find-design-inspiration-for-the-whole-house/pictures/index.html">designed their entire home around the piece</a>—<em>and</em> got it up and running again)!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://blog.sndimg.com/hgtv/design/Alyssa/yellow-stove-stephens.jpg" alt="vintage yellow stove" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p>Shannon Quimby&#8217;s home is both brand new and rather old. Before knocking down the existing structure to build their new home, she and her husband salvaged tons of recyclable items. Fast-forward (or travel backward) into her <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/kitchens/go-green-with-a-recycled-kitchen/pictures/index.html">new kitchen full of reused and repurposed DIY items</a> to get your creative juices flowing.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://blog.sndimg.com/hgtv/design/Alyssa/shannon-quimby-kitchen.jpg" alt="Shannon Quimby kitchen" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p>All of the <em>HGTV Magazine</em> house tours are fabulous in their own right, but this transformation from shack to breathtaking beach house just might take the cake. <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/outdoor-rooms/from-dump-to-dreamy-beach-house/pictures/index.html">Click through the entire photo gallery</a> to look at the amazing before-and-after images, and see how the Brooks family is enjoying their waterfront home now.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://blog.sndimg.com/hgtv/design/Alyssa/brooks-beach-house.jpg" alt="Brooks beach house" width="616" height="230" /></p>
<p>For all this and so much more (RE: expert advice on just what to buy, the right color to paint your house and a guide to get your home vacation-ready), pick up your copy when it hits stands on May 14, or <a href="https://subscribe.hearstmags.com/subscribe/splits/hgtvmagazine/hgtv_sub_mag_nav">become a subscriber here</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Junk Gypsies are back!</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://junkgypsyblog.com/tag/hgtv/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://blog.sndimg.com/hgtv/design/Sarah/junk-gypsies-garage-wars.jpg" alt="The Junky Gypsies Host Garage Sale Wars on HGTV." width="600" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>Here’s the scoop:<br />
<em>Two friendly neighbors with tons of stuff and die-hard competitive spirits go head to head in dueling garage sales. Experts Amie and Jolie Sikes give each family 48 hours to refurbish items, prep and price their &#8220;sales on steroids&#8221; underneath front yard circus tents. With crowds gathered around the block, the sales open at 8 a.m. sharp. The family with the highest earnings at noon wins the garage sale war and a $10k prize.</em></p>
<p><strong>Watch <a href="http://junkgypsyblog.com/tag/hgtv/" target="_blank"><em>Garage Sale Wars</em></a> this Friday, starting at 8/7c. </strong></p>
<p>Join the gypsies for a live <a href="https://twitter.com/hgtv" target="_blank">Twitter</a> party during the two episodes at 8 and 8:30 p.m. ET with hashtags <a href="https://twitter.com/junkgypsy" target="_blank">#garagesalewars and #junkgypsies</a>.</p>
