Home remodeling, like an earthquake, dramatically changes what it feels like to sit in one's living room. Shift your outlook with today's Groupon: for $10, you get two tickets for one-day admission to the Capital Home Show on September 23, 24, and 25 (up to a $20 value).
Hosted at Dulles Expo Center September 23–25, the Capital Home Show showcases sundry home exhibitions and home-improvement seminars. Yigit Pura—of Bravo's Top Chef: Just Desserts fame—divulges culinary secrets on Saturday and Sunday, Sasha Andreev—of HGTV's _Curb Appeal_—inspires DIYers with home-remodeling tips on Saturday, and other seminars cover topics from gardening to building home time machines. Enthusiastic exhibitors display home products such as windows, doors, roofing, and siding, and visitors marvel at show highlights such as The Sand Sculpture Company's massive sand palaces and recreations of suburban office buildings. Visitors can seek notoriety in the Ugly Kitchen Contest, in which contestants' dilapidated cooking spaces vie for a full makeover and stovetop manicure.
Adult tickets cost $7 each online and $10 each at the box office; children ages 6–12 enter for $3 each.
