NAHB-Produced Programs on DIY, Fine Living and HGTV
The NAHB Production Group produces weekly television shows on DIY, Fine Living and HGTV for consumers. The following is the latest lineup:
"Rock Solid" on DIY
Episode: "Outdoor Bar and Grill"
Do-it-yourselfers can now install their own outdoor stone kitchen with the help of a unique stone kit. In this project, DIY's expert stone masons and hosts Dean Marsico and Derek Stearns turn a plain backyard barbecue into a distinctive outdoor kitchen.
"I Want That" on Fine Living
Episode: "Pleated Glass Walls, Chimney Pots, Musical Porch Swing"
Connecting the indoors and outdoors takes on a whole new meaning with Nana Walls — accordion-pleated walls of glass. For a design that's over the top, consider outfitting your home with a chimney pot — clay sculpture that comes in all shapes and sizes, including dragons and columns, and sits atop chimneys and improves draft and design. Ever heard of a blender that cooks? Check out a new blender with a blade that rotates at 240 miles per hour, creating enough heat to turn raw ingredients into cooked soup. Make beautiful music with furniture that doubles as a xylophone, allowing residents to hammer out a tune while rocking on a porch swing.
