Too bad they never devote that much time to decorating the indoors... and no, I don't mean with dicey strings of lights that might or might not work and fake candles.

ITA! Great suggestion! All day interior decorating would be nice. Something new instead of the same old boring programming. I guess next we're in for all day kitchen/cooking "stuff."

I agree with both of you. There is so little shown in the way of home decorating on the Q. I remember in the past they used to have lovely items for the home. I particularly enjoyed the Victorian Home shows.

They've really dropped the ball with home decor... There is SO much more to it than lights, candles, bedding and throws...

I consider it a day off from QVC, though no one forces me to watch in the first place.

However, Q-checks have become somewhat addictive as I always have to check in periodically. After having several failures with mail-order plants, I'm taking the advice of other posters & just buying locally. However, several years ago, I did find the kind of railing planters I wanted on QVC after being unable to find anything elsewhere to fit the narrow, wrought iron railing on my balcony.

QVC disses the south and the west the same way----in the fall they show nothing but parkas, heavy sweaters, and heavy boots when its still warm here....So when they show plants when there is snow on the ground up north and almost spring planting time in the South.....its THE SOUTH/AND WEST'S revenge....

But I agree with Stevie....when you take your Christmas stuff down, that is the perfect time to have some home decor shows so you can spruce up your home for the post holiday period....

Not when it's 10 below out.

You're not required to watch.

there are still some old dried leaves mixed in with patches of ice and snow--we blow off the patios but that's it for now

absolutely right and our weather fluctuates so--one day, --10, the next 70
