Photos of former model Carter Oosterhouse plaster the walls of many a dorm room. But his pinup looks notwithstanding, Oosterhouse's real talent lies in knowing how to swing a hammer. A carpenter by trade, he got his start on TLC's redecorating show Trading Spaces. HGTV then nabbed him to host Red, Hot & Green and Carter Can, which emphasize environmentally friendly design. He's a regular on Oprah and Rachael Ray, showing viewers how to gussy up their homes in the greenest of ways. His nonprofit, Carter's Kids (carters-kids.org), builds parks and playgrounds in low-income areas.
