BTD Love for Eddie Ross

Eddie - you made it to the final four and along the way you've made a name for yourself. Some names haven't aways been the most positive, but your taste and style is clear. Your new blog became a must-read within the design blogosphere within a matter of weeks and your apartment has appeared in both Domino and The Washington Post. Pretty good!

BTD Love for Andrea Schroder

Andrea, you have been the epitome of elegance and maturity during this competition. You finally hit your breaking point this episode and realized that you had achieved what you set out to do and it was time to send yourself home to your family. It takes a lot of courage to know when to say when. We'll miss you all the same.

BTD Love for Wisit Prapong

Wisit, your sweet demeanor and killer countertenor voice made you a truly unique contestant. You did some truly standout work along the way - from your first episode Pop Design fashion sketches to your Parisian garden room that was a clear fan favorite. We'll miss you and wish you all the best.

BTD Love for Teresa Keegan

Teresa, you said yourself that you were perhaps not the strongest competitor on the show, but that doesn't mean that you are a weak designer. And we believe it. You were, after all, part of two winning teams - Episode 1 - the loft challenge and Episode 4 - the Bachelor challenge; and, you were safe on the other two challenges. So, we congratulate you for doing so well and wish you all the best!

BTD Love for Kerry Howard

Kerry Howard - aka Big Daddy - proved himself to be a true Southern Gentleman. A little sass and a lot of class. He took full responsibility for his team's loss without hesitation. We'll miss his funny quips and dedication to his craft.

BTD Love for Serge Van Lian

The first contestant to be sent home is always in the toughest position - you've not had a chance to really show what you can do and we the viewers haven't had a chance to really get to know you. But, someone has to be the first and we're sorry it's you. You were a trooper and a real team player all while trying to show your unique design aesthetic.

This post is only for positive words for Serge and his work. If you have anything else to say about other designers or this challenge, click here.

Send Some BTD Love to Carisa

You won an individual challenge with 'One Man's Trash' and you managed to best 10 designers on your way to the final two. This week the judges loved the architectural details of your loft (most notably your bed-pit) and thought that your kitchen was a terrific place to linger and work. You displayed that you already had a signature style that was mid-century influenced and funky, using vivid colors and liberal use of pillows and accessories. We have no doubt that the fun and fresh spaces that you create have enormous commercial appeal and that your career is headed in a phenomenal direction; we can't wait to hear about your future successes!

And, congratulations on your recent wedding!

Send Some BTD Love to Andrea

You won an individual challenge with 'Chef's Choice,' were selected as the leader in 'Garage Band' and your Team Tahiti won 'Life's a Beach.' You have the ability to communicate effectively with a client or tradespeople as well strong leadership skills and that made you the one to beat in this competition. You rose to the "mega star design trinity" level with your practiced eye in selecting materials and accouterments while adding signature architectural detail with your hands-on style. Your finesse with tools and calm attitude under pressure made you simply a pleasure to behold week after week.

Send Some BTD Love to Goil

You won the difficult first challenge and established yourself as a designer skilled in wit and innovation. Consistently you surprised the experienced judges with your touches of whimsy and your novel styling approaches. Your colors are always cheerful and your rooms were unmistakably your clever product. You aren't Jan Brady but you really are an adorable design Rock Star.

Send Some BTD Love to Michael

Twice you collaborated successfully and created a cabana and a party tent sure to encourage lingering and conversation. Your styling ran the gambit from sophisticated to kitschy and you proved that you had taste and range well beyond your years. Your retro references made us smile and we gratefully became your Minions. And, darn it, we're just aching for one of your therapeutic hugs.

Send Some BTD Love to Erik

You showed us that you always listened to the needs of your client and that lead to your win in the 'Child's Play' episode when you created a bedroom that would satisfy any kid's inner pirate. This week you owned your leadership role and that seems to be the only real reason you were eliminated. Your skills and aesthetic might be traditional but your wit and work ethic are equally timeless.

Send Some BTD Love to Ryan

You showed us that you were first and foremost an artist. This week you were a strong team player, following the directives of your leader and always working toward her vision. In the end, you didn't go because you created the least successful room; you left simply because someone had to go. You made bold statements with paint in 'Child's Play' and 'One Man's Trash' as well as audacious statements in the white room adding overall color to the show. And you did indeed demonstrate that you CAN design a room around a cat.

Send Some BTD Love to Felicia

You were part of last week's winning Team Tahiti, helping to create an ethereal Tahitian hut. This week, you gave your client a sophisticated-looking room, incorporating bold colors your client had asked for. But sadly, the afghan you picked up at the garage sale didn't sit well with the judges. We will miss your cheery attitude, your bright smile and your sharp sense of fashion.

Send Some BTD Love to Elizabeth

You were part of the first winning team and in this outing you proved again that you could work well with others. This week you stepped up to lead and it seemed that your only sin was that you picked strong colors that your team approved. We admired your professionalism and the quiet way you always got the job done, remaining serene no matter what twist was thrown your way.

Send Some BTD Love to John

You were battling some serious health issues and were thrown for a loop by the cost constraints. Your room showed the beginnings of a design with potential but sadly there wasn't enough time to take it as far as you would have liked. One of the best aspects of this episode was when you and Michael hugged, expressing forgiveness. Thanks for sharing your vision and showing your style.

Send Some BTD Love to Heather and Lisa

You were expected to design a room without ever meeting your client while collaborating for the first time. You managed to create a restful room with a clear point of view while avoiding conflict. In the end, it was simply a matter of opinion and someone had to go. You left with your dignity intact and we respect that.

Let's send some BTD love to Heather and Lisa. This post is only for positive comments.
