NASHVILLE, July 7 (UPI) — The Do It Yourself Network’s “DIY to the Rescue” teamed up with country music stars to renovate four rooms at Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry House.
The catch was that the renovations were done in just three days, The Nashville Tennessean reported Saturday.
The show rescues home renovation projects that have gone bad, but a lot of pressure comes along with renovating the longtime temple of country music.
“Just to come backstage to the Grand Ole Opry is a really amazing experience,” said Amy Devers, co-host of the DIY show with Karl Champley. “The history here is mythical.”
Country music stars Little Jimmy Dickens, Lorrie Morgan, Jamie O’Neal, Chris Young and Trace Adkins took part in the renovation.
“I’m still a little shell’shocked that this is an opportunity I have,” said Alicia Paige Watson, associate producer of the show. “This is the church of country music, this is the Mecca.”
