Season 2, Episode 9: “Two Longtime Friends”
Decorating Date Night with Troy & Dina pushes well into season two! Originally posted on Facebook Live, taking your comments and questions for live responses, you can still watch it and comment on this website. Troy and Dina will happily respond to your thoughts and queries.
This episode capped an evening spent with two longtime friends, Bruce and Terri, during Mother’s Day weekend. Dina shares advice on flooring, cabinets, wall color, and counter tops. If that’s not a “Happy Mother’s Day” weekend event, what is?!
Season 2, Episode 8: “Shopping with the Newlyweds”
During Episode 6 of Season 2, Troy and Dina went to the home of newlyweds Scott and Caitlin to select wall colors and determine the best use of space. Then during Episode 7 of Season 2, existing furniture was relocated as the vision for the floor plan began to take shape.
Now, in Episode 8 of Season 2, IT’S TIME TO GO SHOPPING! A number of great finds were discovered for the home, including a big beautiful dinning table with eight chairs for only $250! As Dina likes to say, “You can’t make it for that!”
(Sneak peek ahead: Episode 11 of Season 2 brings Troy and Dina back to the newlywed’s house to check on the status of the home makeover.)
Season 2, Episode 7: “Still at the New House for Newlyweds”
During the previous episode Troy and Dina visited a couple named Scott and Caitlin (and their dog Urban) to determine furniture placement, wall color, and light fixtures for their dining room, kitchen, and family room. Well, once the episode was over the wine flowed, the conversation continued, and furniture was moved. Give Dina enough time in a home and there is little doubt furniture will end up being moved!
Anyway, because a number of high-impact changes were made, it was decided to do a very quick re-cap update episode… and so here it is! Episode 6 was one of Decorating Date Night’s longest videos (at nearly 67 minutes). Episode 7 is one of the shortest (at less than seven minutes).
Season 2, Episode 6: “New House for Newlyweds”
Troy and Dina visit a couple who live out in the woods! Scott and Caitlin recently moved from a much smaller home into a house nearly twice as big, so they need lots of furniture. But first, they want to get the walls painted, the light fixtures replaced (and relocated), and figure out how to best make use of what they already have.
This episode focuses on the dining room, kitchen, and family room. And if you like dogs (and who doesn’t?!), then you’ll love the adorable four-month old Airedale Terrier named Urban!
Season 2, Episode 5: “One Year Later!”
Troy and Dina revisit the Burnett’s home, after they took to heart Dina’s decorating advice way back in Season 1, Episode 6. Now it’s time for the big reveal to see how the remodeling project worked out for them. (Everything is beautiful and even more tips are shared for additional decorating changes down the road. Yay!)
Here’s the “promo” for this episode. Spoiler alert: Wait for the ending to see an accidental outtake when the camera keeps recording after Troy & Dina think the video has ended.
Season 2, Episode 4: “Less is More”
“Decorating Date Night with Troy and Dina” presents a particularly special episode for fans of 106.9 The Eagle! This show was shot live from the home of Shannon Lovewell (host of the weekday show that airs 10a-3p on WWEG).
Witness the beauty of less is more, as the Lovewell’s primary living space gets simplified and de-cluttered. A tremendous transformation without spending a single cent!
Season 2, Episode 3: “New Friends and a New Kitchen”
Decorating Date Night strikes again! Season two, episode three looks to redecorate a couple’s entire first floor (including the kitchen).
Color selection and counter tops are up for discussion, of course. Also up for consideration is a design overhaul, including the addition of a double oven, relocation of the refrigerator, raising of the cabinets, expansion of the island, replacement of the sink, and yes… knocking out some walls.
You get to be a fly on the wall as a married couple thinks out loud about their options and the reasons for the changes they’d like to see.
Season 2, Episode 2: “The Big Reveal”
Popcorn popped! A bottle of red and a bottle of white opened! And an exciting “Big Reveal” episode with John and Lynne, who are back again from Season One!
Troy and Dina took to Facebook Live to offer an initial design consultation to these homeowners last year. (Season 1, Episode 10: “You Floor Me”.) Now we get to see for the first time together how it all turned out. And what a transformation it is!
This episode is split into two pieces. Part 1 provides the set-up, warm welcome, exchange of gifts, and news about an award won by Decorating Date Night. Sadly, Facebook posted it sideways. If viewing the video on a mobile device, then turning your screen will likely be no trouble. If viewing the video on a fixed position screen, please accept our apology.
Part 2 is the remainder of the episode. And it’s right side up. Yea!
See you again soon!
Season 2, Episode 1: “Bed & Breakfast, Dogs & Cats”
