Linda Phan Of HGTV Brings The DIY Spirit Of The Holidays To The Fort Lauderdale Home Show

Coming soon, the Fort Lauderdale Home Design and Remodeling Show is South Florida's best destination to get your family excited for the holidays with some DIY crafts! The Fort Lauderdale Home Show takes place November 16-18, 2018 at the Greater Fort Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center.

Bring the joy of the holidays into your home early this year. TV Personality, Linda Phan of HGTV's Property Brothers at Home: Drew's Honeymoon House will be joined onstage for DIY holiday crafts with her "sister from another brother", Annalee Belle, partner to Phan's brother-in-law, JD Scott (older brother of Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan.) Belle is a model and celebrity makeup artist based in Las Vegas.

"The holidays give us a wonderful excuse to unwind and dig into crafting projects you've been putting off all year," comments Linda Phan. "Even more, it's the perfect way to catch up with loved ones. Lay out the craft supplies, wine and cheese, and you'll be set for a heck of a night in!"

Phan brings a unique perspective to the DIY demo seminar calling her presentations, Table Talk and The Wishing Wreath, "conversations" in her craft room. Members of the audience can participate and share family stories and anecdotes while receiving some "how to" lessons from Phan and Belle. Take away some holiday inspiration and some new family traditions by trying out each crafting "recipe" at home with loved ones.

From traditional to trendy, there are thousands of choices for the home, backyard and office: furniture; fine art and décor; landscaping items, patio furniture and grills; appliances; doors, cabinets and fixtures; flooring; home automation; wall and window treatments; home automation; hurricane protection, pergolas, awnings, holiday gift items and much more! Plus, enjoy special savings exclusive to the Show.

Other Features:

Lifestyle and Professional Development Seminars: Learn more about home financing and wealth management with Merrill Lynch and Bank of America; and gain valuable knowledge about real estate and design in the booming Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach markets with Liz Caldwell and guests from the Realtors of the Palm Beaches and Greater Fort Lauderdale (RAPB + GFLR).

Homestyle 411: Home Show Featured Interior Designer, Viviana Galetto, will be teaming up with Special Spaces Boca Raton to design her Home Show room vignette, "Ely's Special Space."
