Rhonda and Michael Jul 31, 2010 Jay and Stephanie have two young daughters with another child on the way. Luckily, Jay's parents come from out of town to help care for the girls a few days a week. Unluckily for Grandma and Grandpa, they have to stay in the family's guest room - a red, cluttered, mess that looks more like a flophouse then a bedroom! With six people in the home at any given time, it's very cramped, especially in the kitchen and living room. The team's first step is to declutter the main living spaces. The kitchen is so packed that the spillover gets housed in the living room closet, which Robbie wants to turn into an actual coat closet. Once the clutter and the family is gone, our team works overtime to make this home a welcoming and functional living space. Rib builds a desk and shelving unit to deal with the living room clutter. Leslie makes a proper guest room for the grandparents and organizer Robbie works to make the kitchen function.

Jay and Stephani Aug 7, 2010 Jen and Anthony's three-bedroom home is completely dysfunctional. Their young two kids have practically taken over the living room with toys and coats. Anthony loves to cook, but the small, cramped kitchen makes cooking pretty difficult, especially if you want to use more than one cooking surface. And then there's the master bedroom: there's hardly any floor space due to shoe racks, laundry and an ironing board. Once our team gets Jen and Anthony to pare down their clutter, they can get to work making this house beautiful and functional. Leslie has neat trick to cover up the dated kitchen cabinets using hardboard and grass wallpaper. Robbie works on rebuilding the closet organizers to work with the couple's remaining clothing and Rib retrofits two existing bookshelves with a newly built TV unit to create an amazing wall storage unit for books, toys and electronics.

Nick and Rachel Aug 21, 2010 Sharon and Michael live in a beautiful home, but have absolutely no design sense between the two of them. The entryway features their dining room table, the walls are painted bright crayon colors and there's absolutely no art on the blank walls. Mike and Sharon bump into each other constantly in the small and cluttered kitchen, and their breakfast nook has turned into an explosion of art projects done by their two children. Worst of all, their bedroom has become one massive laundry center. Leslie creates a modern, grown-up feel in the home, while organizer Robbie helps the family solve the laundry crisis. Rib turns the kitchen into a functional work space thanks to some amazing finds in the basement.
