Remember that time that we were invited by that cutie Nate Berkus to be a part of one episode on his show?
Remember how we loved working with Nate and were so flattered when he invited us back for 3 more episodes?
Well those amazing experiences helped us realize a few things…
1- We love a good DIY challenge
2- We really enjoyed being part of a TV show
3- People said we’re not half bad at it
We are crazy, over the moon, still can’t believe it ourselves, excited to announce that starting July 2013 we’ll be the hosts of our very own DIY Show!!!
We’re so glad that we can finally tell all of you! This has been such a hard secret to keep!
So here’s the deal…
Our show is called, “Knock It Off” and we get to do exactly what we love… Get high end looks and amazing style without spending a fortune!! We’re going to help viewers “knock off” those pricey styles the DIY way! Being on a show is great, but having a network believe in you enough to create an entire show around you is beyond amazing!
We’ve noticed a bit of a trend in home shows… it’s all huge makeovers with enormous budgets- fun to watch, but not something most people (including us) can do in their own homes. Knock It Off is the home show for REAL people- people with a budget- people who want to have an amazing home, but not break the bank- people that love simple, creative ideas- people like YOU!!
We’ll have tons more details to share as our premiere gets closer, but for now, here are a few details
What: Knock It Off
Where: Live Well Network (ABC/Disney)
When: Starting July 7, 2013
Make sure to check your local listings for The Live Well Network- it’s a national network. If you’re not familiar with LWN, don’t worry, you will be soon!! The team behind LWN is amazing and they’re putting together so many cool, new shows! They just premiered a new vacation rental show called “Sweet Retreats” and we’re loving it!
As we get further into the show, we’ll be sure to fill you in on some fun behind the scenes peeks. We love our crew and it has been a blast to work with them!
Our official Knock It Off Facebook page is live we’re ready for followers!! Of course our regular EC2 page will still be active, but if you want sneak peeks, exclusive show content projects and more, be sure to LIKE our Knock It Off page!
Congrats!!! I cannot wait to see the premiere!

Yay! Hooray! I can’t wait for the first episode. You were “naturals” in front of the camera when you did the Nate Show and very entertaining. That combined with your creativity, laughs and cuteness made for a perfect pair. I’m glad someone took notice!!!!!
Congratulations!!!!!
THRILLED to see the blogsphere as a place where the next generation of home/diy leaders are being found.
Congratulations, best wishes, and I really hope this network is carried on my cable system. 🙂

What? This is very exciting! I will have to figure out where LWN is on my DirecTV. Congratulations!!
OMG!!!! OMG!!!!! OMG!!!!! This is so great, I knew you two looked familiar! I Looovvveee Nate and miss his show soooo much!!I remember when you were on and you did a great job. I am so jealous that you two got to meet him and work with him, too. I am so excited for you, I know your show will be great, but crapola, now I am going to have to finally breakdown and get cable, I have thus far refused to pay for TV but you guys, excuse me, GALS are worth it. I am sending my sister an email right now to set her DVR to record your series in case I can’t find a cable package I am willing to pay for-Thank God for DVR’s. I’ve also put off digging out my old FB info so I will do that today too so I can ‘like’ your FB page and keep up to date. You go girls, you will be fantastic!!! Send extra thank you along to your families for being so supportive in your endeavors and for sharing you with the rest of the world. Blessings to all!!
OH YES!! follow up to my earlier comment-after reacting to the news (posting a comment) I went back to read the other comments – Thanks to Marcia’s comment I realize-I DO HAVE LWN, Don’t have to pay for cable!!! Yeah!! So funny that Doreen had my same reaction, LOL! OMG OMG OMG!!!
Congratulations ladies!!!! That is so exciting and I cannot wait to start watching your show!!! AMAZING!!!! 😉 Jesse @ Scout & Nimble
That is so exciting. I can’t wait to watch
Congratulations! All your hard work is paying off! I am looking forward to watching especially since I have been so disappointed in the decorating shows that are currently on TV!
Cheers to you! – Shelley
That is SOOOOOO awesome!!! Congrats ladies! Totally agree that decor and redos on TV need to be brought down to a realistic level! So glad you guys get to do it!! So so excited for you all…and can not believe you guys do all this while Monica is teaching full time!! I taught 2nd grade and know what a massive commitment teaching is by itself! p.s. Just received my package from Perfectly Imperfect for winning the round 1 linkup of CWTS!! Thank you all!
No freakin’ way! That’s awesome. Congratulations! 🙁 Disappointed that we don’t get the LWN though…
That is AMAZING!!! So freaking excited for you two! Can’t wait to see the show!
AWESOME! Congratulations! Also, 6abc is my local tv jam! I grew up on the Jersey side of Philly (NOT camden tho. Ew.) and when I moved away for college, and then again to be a ‘grown up’, watching 6abc news online was how I would get a ‘fix’ when I was feeling homesick. I mean, Jim Gardner is a legend! (And, I mean, watching the weather is always sunny with Adam Joseph lol) The local news in DC oscillates between awkward and just unprofessional, but 6abc has stayed classy even through the technology changes. So glad you’re going to be part of the extended 6abc family! Congratulations!
How wonderful! Congrats!

Hi Monica and Jess
my husband and i love your show!!! you are truly inspirational and out of this world creative. don’t know where you come up with all your ideas!!! i have a question for you ….we see all the heavy duty dewalt tools you use on your show….we are not so lucky in the way of tools….we would like to make a coffee table and leaning shelves (with desk) but, don’t know where to begin and if it is possible using just the bare bones tools from our garage. is it possible to do some of these projects w/out the high power tools?
thank you for providing us such a great show and inspiring us all….may you know many many years of success.
sincerely
