Let's face it, we all have that area in our home that could use a little sprucing up. For some, it may be as simple as organizing their pantry or adding some new kitchen decor, but others may want to overhaul their bathroom entirely. Heck—some might even decide that they want to experiment with something creative like a DIY coffee station or a home library! All this to say, everyone has that one project they've been putting off. If you're looking for some more inspiration to finally get started with things, look no further than these home improvement shows!
The friendly hosts and genius tips will inspire you to finally tackle that DIY project you've been daydreaming about for months. Many of the series on this list are HGTV classics like Flip or Flop and Good Bones. But there are plenty of other shows out there making a name for themselves. Tidying Up with Marie Kondo took social media by storm when it first aired on Netflix in 2019. Even if you aren't ready to demo a wall or refurbish furniture on your own, these home renovation shows are still wildly entertaining and, honestly, downright soothing, too. Take a look at the list below, and then tell us which one is your favorite in the comments!
Flipping Out
There's flipping homes, and then there's Jeff Lewis' way of flipping homes. His personality definitely takes some getting used to, but that's kind of what makes him the best in the Southern California region!
House Hunters
Finding the perfect home is a process, that's for sure. A long, emotional, and fun process, that is! Watch the behind-the-scenes action of couples and families taking that important step in buying their first or next home. (You'll see their style opinions while also having some of your own.)
Stay Here
Even the most unassuming short term rentals have the opportunity to become something extravagant. If you don't believe that, then just watch as Genevieve Gorder and Peter Lorimer team up to make big deals out of small nothings.
Grand Designs
There are a bunch of stories, movies, and shows about the process of building homes, but Grand Designs focuses more on the people who built them! This one will inspire you to look into the name behind the next cool looking building and home you see.
Tiny House Nation
Tiny homes aren't for everyone... but there are those who dream of nothing else! John Weisbarth and Zack Giffin help families prepare for this next tiny (but ultimately huge) chapter of their lives.

Trading Spaces
How much do you trust your neighbors? If you're guest starring on Trading Spaces, the answer better be a lot! In this unique home improvement show, two sets of neighbors redecorate a room in each-others home with only a $2,000 budget 🤯. Trading Spaces originally aired from 2000 to 2008 but returned in 2018 for a reboot. Lucky us!
