We're gathered around the kitchen counter, talking family, design, and turning heartache into hope. J.R. Martinez, U.S. Army vet, Dancing With The Stars Winner, and author of New York Times Best Seller Full of Heart: My Story of Survival, Strength and Spirit, calls us our attention to the strength in all our spirits. And talks about Opeation Finally Home that helps wounded and disabled veterans. DIY Network’s host Karl Champley shares his new project 'The Nimby Experience' in which celebrities help makeover shelters across America. We talk DIY kids, demo, tools and more with home improver and how-to editor Dan Cary from Handy Magazine.  And it's Formica’s 100th anniversary. We're previewing the breakthrough design of their Anniversary Collection, 180fx, and their IdealEdge that has changed laminate forever.
