This week on House Rules it was Mel and Dave’s turn for a renovation. They wanted a Hamptons feel.
Mel & Dave’s rules:
- Transport us to The Hamptons
- Bring in blue with a twist of lemon
- Find a key vintage piece for every room
- Build in a handy dining nook
- Wrap our walls with wainscoting
I feel like the other team members really did try hard to bring all of these elements in to the home, but because it’s not a popular, modern and easy look to achieve, I think they made a dog’s breakfast of it. I did find it hard to look at all of these rooms. I will say the kitchen and main bathroom is bearable, but the rest isn’t great.
Come and check out the rooms below…
Josh and Brandon (Hallway, Ensuite and Sitting Room)
Jess and Jared (Powder room and lounge room)
Leigh and Kristie (Main bathroom and Billy’s bedroom)
Kim and Michelle (Mudroom and master bedroom)
Chiara and David (Laundry, hallway and dining room nook)
Toad and Mandy (Kitchen, Westin’s bedroom and bonus room)
What did you think??
Please don’t roll up towels, please don’t put clocks (or any artwork or anything decorative at all) in a toilet, please don’t use yellow grout, and don’t put stripes on a ceiling. 😉
You can see the previous reno here and meet the contestants here.
