What do you do when your house is more shabby than chic and you'd rather throw out than make-do and-mend? In her six-part series Kirstie's Vintage Home, the queen of crafts, Kirstie Allsopp, invites hopeless households to her own vintage cafe to teach them new skills to inject a bit of style into their homes.Her 'students' are severely lacking in the homemaking skills department - whether tb hey live in a cluttered hell or a characterless utilitarian box, they are all in need of a bit of vintage craft magic from Kirstie and her team.Kirstie is looking to the past for inspiration and embracing vintage style to help homeowners desperately in need of a helping hand.This time it's Shaun and Jannine Cartwright and their three sons in need of assistance.The family has reached a massive stumbling block when it comes to overhauling their Blackburn home, which is full of clutter, clutter and more clutter. Jannine has recently fought cancer and the family is now struggling to know where to begin in order to create a more homely home.Kirstie and her team of top designers and artists help Shaun and Jannine create a 1950s-inspired family playroom and a fin de siecle romantic bedroom. They make a bespoke chaise canopy in stunning textiles and treasure chests for the boys' toys. They shop for a vintage sideboard and reupholster the dining room chairs.PRODUCTION DETAILS:Presenter: Kirstie Allsopp, Series Producers: Lisa McCann, Dani Carlaw, EP's: Sarah Walmsley, Andrew Jackson.
