Escape from Magazine Mountain

Overview

Irene and Kyle are trapped in the clutter that has come into their lives from the various comings and goings of their kids, not to mention some of their own. Their guest room also doubles as a storage room, but with a treadmill on top of a broken chair and poor lighting, it's hard to do any of that. The master bedroom definitely isn't a place to sleep, with its unused couch, sheets covering the windows, magazines, clothing, trophies and furniture. Peter Walsh is in to see that things are cut down to a reasonable level. For the most part, the purging goes well, although there are a few sentimental items that require some emotional discussion. Molly Luetkemeyer does the redesign of the rooms, focusing on getting them back to being workable for their purposes. The master bedroom is remade with fabric covering the mirrors, side cabinets for the large magazine collections and walls in the color of African violets - Irene's favorite. The guestroom / storage room is given new lantern lighting
