Quick: What are your plans for Sunday night? (We're talking 10p/9c). If you're undecided, ShelterPop invites you to join our Twitter party with one of our favorite ShelterPop writers Jaime Derringer! (You also may know her from her amazing blog Design Milk. She'll be watching the new episode of Design Star on HGTV and piping up about everything from our favorite rooms to the contestants' cringe-worthy decisions...plus all the moments that make us go OMG, LOL or oh no they didn't! (That's ONTD for those new to Twitter's 140-character limit!)
Here's the scoop: Tune in to Design Star this Sunday, August 15 at 10p/9c on HGTV and keep your laptop or phone nearby for easy Twitter access. Follow us at Twitter.com/ShelterPop or see our opinions retweeted at Twitter.com/HGTV. We'll be gabbing with the hilarious Heather Armstrong of dooce.com so you know we'll bring our A-game... And we hope you do too! If you'd like to join in, use the hashtag #designstar and raise your voice (you know your comments are too good to only be shared with roommates and pets.)
If you're a newbie to the show, you still have time to catch up before Sunday -- you can watch past episodes, get expert tips, rate designs and learn more about the contestants at Design Star's site.
To help you get as pumped as we are, we're giving away the HGTV swag you see in the photo above -- umbrellas, tees, iPhone cases, beach towels, mugs and travel mugs. To win a prize pack with one of each of the goodies, leave us a comment about who you're rooting for (or if you haven't started watching -- what other HGTV shows you love.)
Hope to see -- err, tweet -- you there!
