    Meg, I love the new intro screen -very cute!
    Also, I just want to say "Happy Canada Day" (July 1st) to all of the Canadian DIYers. :)

    Whaaaaaaaaaat .... gay pride flag not the Canadian flag? Haven't watched the ep.. but if there isn't a mention of canada day... .. .

    umm... i am sorry but you shouldn't have had the condom thing ... there a some younger kids on here just please watch what you post

  • Meg wrote on July 1, 1:01 pm

    we don't encourage, just say IF it happens, be safe. i don't advocate sex, but want kids to be aware that if and when it happens, you need to think about safety first. thanks for thinking about the kids. i do my best to keep everyone's best interest in mind and heart.
    xo, meg

  • I<3Style wrote on July 1, 1:03 pm

    It was clear that you said you do not advocate it first, but IF it happens, be safe. I thought that was awesome. Why deny what kids are seeing and hearing about when you can teach about safety and health. Bravo for the bravery!

    if Threadbanger's young viewers have internet access, i think Decor It Yourself is the least of their problems. maybe you shouldn't advocate sewing with sharp needles that might injure young viewers!

  • GEflowerchild wrote on July 1, 10:58 pm

    yeah, cause condoms are something so dangerous... so sordid... that the younger generation couldn't possibly be exposed. Grow up!

    Great episode by the way, I loved it!!! I love to see a little love!

  • Patchwork_Kitty (guest) wrote on July 2, 11:43 am

    And those younger viewers need to know about safe sex, because the schools certainly aren't teaching it!

    Great episode, I love the use of prints in the flag, it made it super cute!

  • KetchupSoldier wrote on July 1, 1:01 pm

    Dude! That's just realy amazing. :)

    I was gonna go to my city's Pridefest on Sunday, but I couldn't. :/

    Well, maybe another time. Spread the love!

  • IndieDesigner74 wrote on July 1, 1:12 pm

    I mean, come on. You are so supportive and wonderful! I showed my whole office! I LOVE YOUR SHOW!

  • Michelle* wrote on July 1, 1:18 pm

    This episode, this acceptance and love made my day.

  • infertil wrote on July 1, 3:02 pm

    rad episode... the "do it with others" line cracked me up!

  • Barret wrote on July 2, 2:21 am

    Brilliant. This episode not only entertains and allows you to learn a fun-for-everyone project and tips, but it really drives home a message that should make you think. Hopefully, it will at least help you to realize that we are really some of the luckiest people in the world to be able to be who we are, whomever that may be.

    Meg, I love who you are and what you stand for. Way to really show people that in this 'sode 'splodin full of DIY pride.

    I now know what song will take me to that big white Southfork in the sky one day, far far from now... DIY Dallas. Mad preech for that Will.

  • Barret wrote on July 2, 2:28 am

    P.S. Meg - LOVE the new opener... Are you kidding?!?!?! Fabulous!

    P.P.S True, there are a lot of younger viewers out there. Also true, there are a lot of older viewers out there. You tastefully gave a quick tip that anyone and everyone should remember no matter when they choose to feel ready enough to remember it. Nicely done.

  • atb wrote on July 2, 11:13 am

    your flag is the best! props to you guys for combining open- mindedness with cool, crafty tips.

  • MrsBowles wrote on July 2, 11:35 am

    Loved the episode! Using prints for the color stripes was brilliant and made the flag really stand out from the same ol' rainbow.
    One thing that I'd love to see more of on Decor it Yourself and Threadbanger is the encouragement of using the iron while sewing. I realize DIY is fun & quick & spontaneous, and a far cry from fine tailoring, but I think that many of the wonderful, fearless, creative folks out there, essentially teaching themselves to sew, might be thrilled to know the great effect a nicely pressed seam can have on their project. Give it a think...xo

  • I LOVE DIY wrote on July 4, 10:44 am

    I agree and will take your suggestion. I have often resisted the art of ironing, but have been meaning to embrace it more. All I needed was a push, so thanks!

  • peach (guest) wrote on July 2, 12:12 pm

    Wow! Loved the webisode! Yeah Pride Week!!! Love the PSU shout out!!!

  • sandy frink (guest) wrote on July 2, 12:14 pm

    Love the new opening - I don't know who is cuter - the illustration of you or actually you....it's tremedous!!!!

  • daydreamer1 wrote on July 2, 1:21 pm

    Gay Pride!Yaaay!

    And PSU ftw!

  • jazzieburger wrote on July 2, 5:20 pm

    omg. penn state. that's me. (:

  • toasterb0t wrote on July 3, 12:07 pm

    i think that was the best quick tip ever!

  • buttongirl (guest) wrote on July 3, 2:25 pm

    i love gay people. but they need to know JESUS. yes, i know that this episode is about fashion and style, but you guys chose this topic. homosexuals need to know the TRUTH. and yes, i have gay people in my life and they still yet to know of Jesus... and the whole condom thing, yeah, not a good way to advertise it. i think sex should be between a man and a woman who are already married. but that's my opinion =) love threadbanger though.

    Lol wut?

  • Barret wrote on July 11, 1:28 am

    Amazing.

  • jay_of_sunshine wrote on July 12, 12:02 am

    jesus would not care he would not care he would love them for who they are
    god made them the way they are so you should look a little more in to your bible the next time you try to talk for jesus and god

  • sarah (guest) wrote on August 20, 10:46 pm

    I really must say I like you even more now because not only did you introduce the gay culture but you associated diy activities with it. You rock!
