Designer Envy - Emily Henderson

I am an HGTV addict!  Secrets from a Stylist with Emily Henderson is my new favorite show.   I have been such a big fan of hers since she won Design Star.  If you havent seen her show, please do it.  She really personalizes each room to fit her clients tastes' TO A TEE. I just love her effortless sensibility and her rooms look as if they have been slowly collected for years and years.  If only I could come with her on one of her flea market trips... Her talent is mind boggling!  She's funny, cute as a button and her work is oh so good. Just look at her rooms...ooooo...ahhhhh!
