I'm Christina.

You may know me
from flipping houses.

Every time I walk in,
I just can't get enough.

It's a sexy house.

That is just plain beautiful.

But there's a lot more sides
to me than that.

I'm am other of two
with a new business venture...

- We're embarrassed of this area.
- Okay, we're gonna change that.

...a new man.

It's perfect.
Whew!

- ...and a new point of view.
- We need help.

We will make it
so you both love it.

I'm helping people create
beautiful new spaces

to spend time
with their families...

- This is incredible.
- It's beautiful.

I love this.

...and branching out
into some new spaces of my own.

It's time that we're going
to sell the house.

I can imagine being
in the kitchen

and checking out the view.

Very Zen.

I know.
Hello, Bali.

♪ This is just the start ♪

There's something wonderful

about reinventing
someone's world.

- Oh, my God.
- Wow.

Christina, I love you.
This is amazing.

- Thank you so much.
- You're welcome.

♪ We've just begun ♪

And so far,
I'm loving the ride.

♪ Yeah ♪

♪ Get ready to run ♪

♪ Get ready to run ♪

Let's go, Mommy.

- Okay.
- Look.

- Christina?
- Hi.

- Hey.
- How are you?

- Hi. Good. How are you?
- Hi.

Nice to meet you.
Thanks for meeting up.

Yeah, of course.

As a working mom,
I've learned that the best way

to get things done
is to multitask.

I have Brayden today, and with
our crazy living situation

and our crowded rental,

my meeting with
a potential client

and mom turned into
a play date at the park.

Brayden, come say, "Hi,"
to James.

- No.
- Come say, "Hi."

Terrible 3s.
They call it terrible 2s,

but they're lying.

- When's your due date?
- About 2 1/2 months.

- A boy or a girl?
- This is a girl.

Oh. Uh-oh.

They're, like,
twinzies almost.

Uh-huh.
They look alike.

That's like
foreshadowing the future.

Totally.
He's a big boy, too.

- Yeah.
- Is your husband tall?

Yeah.

What does
he do for work?

He's in finance,
so he's very

buttoned up
during the week.

This is kind of more my project
that I wanted to get done

before we had
the second baby.

We've been together
about five years.

We've been married
just over two.

We were on vacation
one time, and I asked him

what he liked about me,
and he said,

"You're hot.
You're fun, and you're cool."

Yeah.

I run the ship at home.

I joke she's, you know,
in charge

of household operations,
where I'm in charge of finance.

So the problem is, the kitchen,

it has dark cherrywood.

- Yeah.
- There's been a few owners,

so it's just kind of
mix-and-match.

- Yeah.
- And nothing flows.

What are you
looking to spend?

Budget is between
$40,000 and $50,000.

I think that's a good enough
number to start with, hopefully.

Yep. I would love to work
on the project with you.

When are you guys looking
at actually getting started?

I'm cooking fast. Yep.

So as long as you can get it
done in the next 10 weeks,

that's my time line. Yeah.

That's definitely
cutting it very close,

but, I mean,
it can definitely be done

as long as nothing comes up
in the process.

We're onboard. So if you're
ready to start, we are.

All right.
I'll come out this week.

- You want to chase the boys down?
- Where are our children?

Right there.

Oh, okay.

- Hi.
- Morning.

- How are you?
- Come on in.

- Hi. I'm Eric.
- Hi. So nice to meet you.

Okay, so I'm loving the vibe
that you have going here.

I see
the mid-century details.

- Yes.
- So is that both of your styles?

I think she likes
a little bit more modern.

Yeah. I don't want to feel
like I'm living

in my grandparents' house.

So what do you
like in here?

What do you not like?

I just kind of want to feel out
as far as layouts, style.

We have, like,
a tile-wood-cement-carpet

situation happening
right here.

A lot of different
patterns, okay.

When we're trying
to cook dinner,

you basically
just have this space

to chop your vegetables.

Yeah, we tend to bunch up
right here chopping everything.

And we're just, like,
elbow to elbow.

With small children,
I feel like this is dangerous.

It should be moved.

I think we should shift
the refrigerator

to where the oven is,
and then we can put a nice

combination of a stove
and a cooktop right here,

and then we can shift
the pantry to this wall.

Oh!
You can have

the coffee set up,
your coffee machine.

You can use uppers to put

the coffees away
and everything else,

and it'd just be, like,
your little area.

And wine glasses.

- Yes.
- And wine.

Good.
Same page.

You're almost there.

You got 10 more weeks.

Eric and Sunshine have
about $50,000

to spend on this kitchen,
which I think is totally doable,

but since we don't have
a ton of time,

I want to get Mike
and his guys out here A.S.A.P.

Brayden, where are your
swim shorts?

They're at the beach.

Can't find anything.

Are we going
to the beach?

Yeah. We're going
to the beach.

I can't find your shorts,
though, dude.

The butt beach.

The butt beach?

Yeah.
Wow.

Life in the rental
has been chaotic.

I can't find anything,
and the kids are going crazy.

I never thought I'd say this,

but doing reno in other
people's homes

is actually less stressful than
my current living situation.

It's the tickle monster.

No!

Hey. All right.
All right.

No shoes on the bed. Hey.

Let's go to the beach.
Let's get out of here.

Hi. Hi.

I think Cash is
the only calm one.

Oh, Cash, what are we
going to do?

For my own sanity, I've got
to get more aggressive

with my own house search,

so I can find a place
and get out of here.

Come here.

Aaah!
Ow.

- How's it going?
- Good.

- Stressed?
- It's getting there.

A little bit.

Are you guys living here
right now?

No. We definitely had
to move out.

Mother-in-law and family
helped us.

It's good.

It's like
temporarily stressful,

but I think overall,
moving out is the best decision.

Babies can't eat
fast food every day.

Yes, exactly.

Living with
the mother-in-law

has been
better than expected,

but, you know, it comes with
a couple little trade-offs.

We're in separate rooms.

I'm in a twin bed
that I grew up in.

There's a dog that we have
to deal with on a daily basis.

It's keeping him away
from our bedroom,

so he's not peeing
on the carpet

and humping anything.

A very gentle,
very loving dog.

Just a bit romantic.

Romantic.

Okay.
So let the fun begin.

I brought
some design materials.

So I went with the really
mid-century-modern look

with also a little bit
of a modern flair.

Okay.

So I couldn't find the exact
cabinet I'm looking for,

but I'm thinking along the line
of this color but flat-panel.

Sounds great.
Love flat-panel look.

And I was thinking
a white quartz countertop.

Very durable for kids.

You can spill things on it.

You can do whatever you want,
and it lasts forever.

That was
my next question.

Glass of wine,
bottle of milk...

- Mm-hmm.
- Yep.

Lastly, to give
this kitchen some flair...

backsplash.

- The fun part.
- Wow.

- That's cool.
- It has that geometric

really '50s
mid-century look,

and I think it really ties
everything together.

Color looks perfect.

You can see other
design elements.

Looks awesome. Awesome.

- The flooring.
- Yeah.

The flooring is,
I mean, like...

I was so excited
when I saw this flooring.

Feel it.
It's very heavy.

Yeah.

It's porcelain,
very durable.

So we would put this
through the whole house?

What I was thinking is,
we could lay it

herringbone style
in the kitchen and dining room.

Then the rest of the house,

we could just lay it
the normal style.

I love it.
The black.

All the furniture
will pop.

- Right.
- So sexy and modern.

I do like it, I just
feel like it's going to be

a little dark throughout
the whole house.

But it looks so good.

- So this...
- The flooring.

It's porcelain,
very durable.

So we would put this
through the whole house?

I love it.
The black. Oh!

I do like it.
I just feel like

it's going to be
a little bit dark

throughout
the whole house.

But it looks so good.

Uh...

I love all
the design Christina laid out.

I think she's really
giving me what I want,

and I'm very excited
about that.

Sunshine is loving
this flooring,

but Eric just isn't feeling it.

I know it would look amazing,

but that's the thing
about designing for clients.

Sometimes, you get stuck
in the middle of them

not seeing eye-to-eye,

and it's my job
to find a compromise.

I have an idea.

How about
we definitely do it

in the dining room
and the kitchen,

and I can go pull
another sample or two

that will look amazing
with the combination of this

that we can do throughout
the rest of the house?

To split up
the flooring?

Yes. Luckily, there's
a very fine,

easy defined transition
across these two rooms,

so I think
it'll look totally nice,

especially when this one
is laid in herringbone.

It'll be very easy to do
the rest of the house.

As long as you think
it will transition well.

Totally.
The rest, we're good to go?

You love the combination?

- Yeah.
- I love it.

- It looks beautiful.
- Yeah.

♪ Hey ♪

♪ Ho ♪

♪ Right on the beat ♪

I'm headed to Eric
and Sunshine's house.

They have a big idea
for their home,

and they want
to run it by me.

You never know what you're going
to get in cases like this.

Sometimes, clients come up
with crazy ideas,

and I never know
what to expect.

We want to create
an open living space

with bi-fold doors
really running

the length
of this back wall.

- Wow.
- Just take the whole wall out.

What do you think?

I mean, I love where
your head is at,

and it would be very
mid-century modern,

but I've done this
in the past,

and it's
really expensive.

You're talking about
support beams and structure,

and, honestly, all in,
you're looking at, like,

$60,000.

$60,000?

Oh, I think I'm
getting contractions.

Don't go into labor.

I think
I have a solution.

Instead of doing
a giant set of doors,

to save money and not have to do
all the structural stuff

with the beams
and the support,

I think we can do
one big set here,

and then on this wall,
we can do a whole nother set.

And cost on that?

Closer to $25,000.

I think
we can live with that.

- Better than $60,000.
- It's better than $60,000.

Okay. All right.
I'll get it ordered.

It's really nice.
Three-car garage?

Love that.

With the kids and I going crazy
in the rental,

I've been spending all
my free time house-hunting,

and my friend Cassie
is along to help me out.

Oh, wow.
It's beautiful.

I like how all the walls
are white.

Me too. Oh, wow.
Look at the backyard.

This is gorgeous.

And there's a pool.

But my favorite part
is the doors.

I love it.
I love that so much.

We're actually doing
something really similar

in Sunshine
and Eric's house.

I love the kitchen.
I love the finishes.

I love the two-tone.

I think this color
is beautiful.

Yeah. Reminds me of your
kitchen with the two-tone.

Totally. Yeah.
It does.

I haven't seen the whole
downstairs yet,

but so far,
this place is so amazing.

This is the first house
I've actually toured

that I can really
envision us all living at.

- Oh, wow.
- It's beautiful.

This is really pretty.

- Oh, wow. Oh.
- Ah!

I can work with that.

This bathroom
is beautiful.

This would
be the kids' rooms.

Oh, yeah, because it has

a Jack-and-Jill bathroom,
you know?

Oh, that's perfect.
So cute.

Aw.

This is cool.
I would use this as, like,

a kids' media room, playroom.

Yeah.

Oh, wow.
Look at the patio.

This is a huge balcony.

- Oh, my gosh.
- This is so nice.

I mean,
this is incredible.

I mean, it checks off
a lot of boxes for me,

more than any house
I've seen.

- That's true.
- The decor is beautiful.

I absolutely
love the yard.

This place is beautiful.
It's big. It's bright.

And we could
literally move right in.

It almost feels too good
to be true,

so I'm going to hurry up
and make an offer on it.

- All right.
- It's gorgeous.

- Good morning.
- Morning.

How are you guys doing?
- Good, good.

You guys look so nice.
Where'd you come from?

- My mom's house in Cerritos.
- Oh, geez.

You know how much further that
is from the hospital?

Yeah. Okay.

Well, we're trying
to finish this up quick.

I know you guys want
to get back home.

- Yes, please.
- Let's go check it out.

The doors are in.

Yep.
They look great.

It's so pretty!

- What do you think?
- I like it.

It really
opened up the space.

- Yeah.
- It feels so much

bigger in here.

- Yeah.
- When can cabinets go in?

Cabinets are going
in Wednesday

and then templates Friday,
and then after that,

it's really just the backsplash
and floors and...

Just everything?

- Yeah, exactly.
- Mostly everything else.

Baby due in four weeks
as you know, so...

Yes.
We'll definitely--

I just want to
make it clear

that this is
not going away.

I'm only
getting bigger, and...

I'm thinking around three weeks
we should be out of here.

It'll all
work out, right?

I-- Let's hope.

Why did we
decide to do this?

Excited to
see the cabinets?

- I am.
- Hey.

- Hi.
- Wow.

- The color is so pretty.
- It looks beautiful.

The coffee bar,
it looks amazing.

That looks really
good. I'm happy with it.

I have some things
to talk to you about.

I have a little bit
of bad news,

which I feel so horrible
saying to you right now.

More bad news?

The backsplash that
we originally chose

is going to be delayed
three weeks.

The backsplash that
we originally chose

is going to be
delayed three weeks.

Of course, of all houses
to be working on,

it has to be the one
with the pregnant girl

that has the delay.

I don't even know what to say.
It's sucks.

I brought some
other options.

So, yeah.
What do you got?

We have these,
and these,

we could do like
a straight stack.

We could do a brick set.

Is it glass?
Yes.

Or there's these,
same type of thing,

different options of how
we lay it in different patterns,

or-- I love this.
This is a little bit different.

Different is good.
Mm-hmm.

This one is in stock.

Huh.
I personally...

I do like this one better
than that one.

I kind of do, too.

You know, we need
some kind of pop anyway.

Okay. And then also,
I brought flooring samples.

So because we're going
super dark,

I don't think
we should go too light

for the rest of the house.

I think this one
is really beautiful.

It's kind of natural,
and then I think this one...

Okay.

...next to this one
will look beautiful.

Yeah.
I like that color.

I kind of-- I like the scheme
that we have going here.

What do you think
Eric will think?

Well, he's not here.

So he doesn't really have
a choice, does he?

Nope.

So my offer on the house
didn't get accepted.

It turns out that
there was an offer

that came in about
the same time as mine,

and I didn't want to
get into a bidding war.

I'm really disappointed.

It was a great house.
I definitely need

some cheering up,
so I'm going to go visit Ant.

He and our friend Walter
are working at his garage today.

- Hi.
- Hey.

What is this?

- How's it going?
- I brought you boys

some smoothies... Wow.

...for the man
who introduced us.

Aw, Walter.

Walter is a mutual
friend of ours

and also a motor head
just like Ant.

He's also
a bit of a matchmaker.

He set us up on a blind date

and loves the chance to re-tell
the story any time he can.

Dinner, the winery,
had a great night of it.

Oh, our first date.

I think it was just a couple
days later that he said to me,

"I'm marrying
that girl, one day."

Yeah. You know, it was
a couple of days later

that me and him were
at Fashion Island

eating ice cream, and...

- Do you mind?
- Sorry.

He looked at me, and he's
like, "I love you."

- Walter, you should go now.
- And then he was like...

Okay.

Walter, you should
absolutely go now.

You know, this is way,
way, way too much.

- Bye, Walter.
- Have a great time...

- Have a fun day.
- ...and many, many more dates.

I'll finish this off.

Why? It's such
a sweet story.

- You're just mean.
- You're so sweet.

Are you going to take me out
in one of these things?

Go.

Oh, I have to pee.

Hold on.

Do you like it?

Yeah.
It's a great car.

We're making progress.

All right.
I love the floor.

Magical.

- Yeah.
- Transitions very nicely.

Looking good.

- All right. Hey, Mike.
- Backsplash.

What do you guys think?

Looks great, and I got
the mid-century design

that I was
looking for, so...

- Mm-hmm.
- ...very good.

Next up, we just have
to grout the floors,

put in the appliances,
finish up the fixtures,

paint, but we're, like,
we're homestretch.

Okay.

Probably at the end
of this week, we should be done.

Baby, stay put.

- Stay. Stay put.
- You have one more week.

- Hello?
- Hey, Sunshine.

I was wondering if you could
meet me at a lighting store

either today or tomorrow.

You're in labor?

I think it's the day.

Oh, my gosh.

Yeah.

We're early.

Is my house going
to be done soon?

You know what?
As soon as we hang up,

I will get on the phone
with Mike

and do everything I can.

- We'd appreciate it.
- Don't stress.

Good luck.
Keep me posted.

- We will.
- All right.

- Thank you.
- Congrats!

Thanks.

Hello, Christina?

Hey, Mike. What's going on?

Sunshine is in labor. Really?

So any chance the house
can be ready in two days?

The backsplash needs
to be grouted.

The appliances
need to go in.

The floor needs
to be sealed,

and we need to
install the baseboard,

and we need
to finish painting.

Yeah, and then
a big cleaning.

Then we got to
clean up everything.

Let's figure out a way to
make it happen if we can.

Okay. All right. Cool.

♪ Let's go ♪

How cute are these shelves?

- They're perfect.
- Let's deck them out.

Okay.

In addition to the kitchen,

I'm going ahead and staging
Sunshine and Eric's living room

with furniture that
they already had.

Sometimes, using someone else's
furniture can be a challenge,

but it's wonderful
when you take someone's things

and really make them work.

Everything they own
looks so great

with the flooring
and the sliders.

The space has really
come to life.

I think they're here.

Can't wait to see the baby.

Hi. Oh, my gosh.
I'm so excited.

- Good to see you.
- We're very excited, too.

Congrats, Dad.

Aw.
She's absolutely beautiful.

It's baby Layla.

She is perfect.

Oh, my gosh. Look at that
little face, very sweet.

Sunshine and Eric are back
from the hospital

and at his mom's house again.

I'm meeting them today
to make sure that everything

is just how they want it
so that they can move back in.

I can't wait for them to see it.

She's looking forward to being
in her bed in her house.

Yes. I bet.

Please.
I know.

Enough small talk.

Come on in.

Oh, my God.

♪ Whoa, oh, oh ♪

♪ You're just so beautiful ♪

- Wow.
- It's so much different.

- Right?
- Oh, my God.

The doors are everything.

They make the hugest
difference in here.

I mean, it transformed
the whole house.

I know they were $25,000,
which is a lot of money,

but so worth it,
so beautiful.

I love the fresh air
you get in here,

and come on in to your...

- All right.
- ...brand-new kitchen.

Oh, wow.

It's so pretty!

- Oh, my gosh.
- Incredible.

Yeah. I love how it feels
so much bigger in here.

- Mm-hmm.
- It does.

I think the backsplash really
worked out in our favor.

- Absolutely. Yeah.
- Oh, yeah.

I mean, this floor.
I can't get over the floor.

Like, I was excited when we
looked at it, but it's sexy.

It's modern.

I will 100% be using this

floor again
in another house.

No. No.

It's probably my favorite
I've ever done.

I'm sorry.
I have to.

Like, I fell I love.

- Yes.
- Moving the stove out of here...

is just such
a big difference.

Now you have
this huge workspace.

Like, I can just totally
picture you guys in here

and utilizing
the functionality of it.

Mm-hmm. I mean, it's
a great serving space.

You can hang out and sit
in those bar chairs.

It's incredibly functional.

And, of course,
the wine rack.

The wine rack
is great.

Thank you for
stocking that.

You're welcome.
And then coffee bar.

Coffee and wine.
We've got everything we need.

Exactly.
Necessities.

Exactly.

This is-- I couldn't
have pictured it any better.

- Thank you so much.
- We couldn't have done it

without you.
This is incredible.

- Yeah.
- Thank you so much.

Oh, you're so welcome.

James, you want
your cracker?

Shove that all
in your mouth, yeah.

It feels great to be done with
Sunshine and Eric's project.

Everything came together
really well.

On a personal front, though,

things are still
really up in the air.

I'm so disappointed I didn't get
the house in Newport Beach.

I really thought that
that could be the one.

I'm really just so ready
to get the kids and I settled.

This is really hard.
