TAMPA - When millions tune in to ‘’Extreme Makeover: Home Edition’’ on Sunday night, Bay area fans will finally get to see inside the Tate family’s new home on Davis Islands.
That includes $75,000 in furniture and accessories provided by Boyles Distinctive Furniture of Conover, N.C. The company has showrooms in North Carolina and South Carolina and ships internationally.
The Tate home was the second furnished by the company for the ABC reality show. The first was in Raleigh.
Boyles learned from that experience to send more than enough pieces - better to send some back to the showroom than to run out of time and furniture, says Dean Thompson, director of marketing.
The one-week start-to-finish construction and decorating schedule leaves no time for error. Ty Pennington and his “Extreme Makeover” crew worked around the clock in January to build and furnish the 3,400-square-foot Spanish Eclectic house.
Here’s a peek at some of the pieces you’ll see when the show airs at 8 p.m. Sunday on ABC.
