Greetings!
We have some exciting news to share today! Â We’ve been working on something “design TV-related” for a while now, and we’re really excited about the direction it’s moving in.
Think: our blog in 3D…meaning, low-dough/high-smile room redos, real-life DIY adventures, and lots of YOU!
At this point, we need to see if you’d be into A) having us over to help you redo a room or two (or three!), and/or B) helping us redo someone’s elses space(s). (Maybe you’re a mural artist, or a seamstress, or you’d just like to lend a helping hand by painting a wall or working on a craft project with us, etc.)
We also need to know what area you live in. (City/State/Country) Â (You can live anywhere, and every comment will be read!)
We hoping to round up as many responses as we can in the next 48 hours, so if you’re interested, and you have time to leave a comment, please do!
We’re working with some super-talented and creative folks and they’re very interested in seeing the response to this post, so please don’t be shy, and thank you so much! We’ll definitely keep you posted and we hope to hug you soon!
PS- We’d also like to invite you to join us on Facebook & Twitter!
(We’re seeking responses on those sites too! Thank You!)

Gulp! YES! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE your help in as many rooms as possible – mostly the living room though. I love your style. I don’t have much design talent but I’m great at following direction. Southern Maine, near the coast. It’s lovely this time of year…

Free reign for you guys here in Marengo, IL! Have lived in this honey oak trimmed house for a year and am so overwhelmed with where to start, that I can’t get started. I need someone’s help because 1991 called and it wants all of it’s trim and hollow core doors back!
Seriously, I’m stuck because I don’t want to make any mistakes…isn’t that crazy!?
Love your blog!
Lisa

That would be a dream come true! I’m getting ready to redo three rooms and would love having your help! I would love to help others, too. I don’t have any special talents other than I follow directions very well! 😉 I’m in Dallas, TX.
Kris
Heck yes I’d love for you to come and redo a room or two!! Elkhart Lake, WI

I would love some help with my bathroom! We have horrible 50’s metallic wallpaper, equally horrible orange linoleum, a counter with drawers that never want to open right, and a stand-in only shower which makes bathing the baby extremely difficult. I’ve often thought about entering this bathroom in one of those ugliest bathrooms in America contests! I live in Fallon, NV.
Thanks!
Erica

UUmmmm…I have 2 houses. (our home and then our lake home). They both have a lot of rooms and would love a re-do or should I say a do….they’re both pretty new, clean and empty!
Tiff
Boy you have a lot of responses!
When you get tired of travelling the US, there’s a kitchen &/or my bedroom in AUSTRALIA waiting for you 🙂
I’d love the help – I’m challenged in both the design area and the cash area!!
Adri@Dreambookdesign
Ummm, absolutely! Come on over to AZ anytime you want to!!

My husband has been begging me since we bought the house to contact someone famous and beg them to do a room redo for us. 🙂 We’re in Memphis, TN and have a whole rancher that’s currently stuck in the 60s but has TONS of potential!
Samantha
First off, I love, love, love your blog. 2nd, it would be so awesome for you guys to come help me out at my house, especially our master bedroom…all the way in Twin Falls, Idaho. It would be a great experience to also be able to help you guys help someone else. So i’m up for Option A or Option B!
Leah
Sounds like you’d be all set if you came on up to Utah…so far I’ve seen an Alpine, Lehi, American Fork and I’m in Cedar Hills. All of those cities are within 10 miles of each other 🙂 Seems like you could seriously get your re-do on! We own a 1925 farm cottage with loads of character that could use some of your help!
Barbi
I would love love love to have some live action design help. We rent a house and have free reign as to painting walls and desperately need help figuring it out. We are in Milwaukee, WI
Holly | bijou lovely
Yes to both!! My husband and I bought our first home recently and we’ve been slowly tearing down all the horrible wallpaper from the 90’s but we still have a ton if rooms left and would love some help! We live in Iron Mountain, MI. I also would love to lend a hand with any sewing projects!
nicolette @ momnivore's dilemma
3D! How exciting!
I’m in Chicago, and I paint murals! Hit me up if you come to the second city…
kim
I would volunteer my house (two bedrooms that need updating) and also my daughter’s. She just bought a 1970’s house that really needs help. They are finally ready to settle down after YEARS of school. I would love to volunteer to help. (I’m glad to see there are a number of Utah entries because maybe you’ll end up around here.) I can do/paint calligraphy on walls…no vinyl for me, sew, use tools, refinish furniture. I love projects. My latest idea I want to try: using free pallets to make a french inspired floor in my husband’s office. My husband says the wood is too soft. I think it might add to the rustic look I’m going for. What do you think? Anyway, if you are out this way, count me in. (You already did a design for me several years ago.) (Provo, Utah) Even if I don’t get to meet and work with you, I’ll still be thrilled to see the two of you in action. It will be a great adventure! Good luck!

Heck yes! You are welcome to fix all the rooms in my house! Only the kid’s room has gotten any attention!

I would love your help!! We have remodeled the first floor of our house but our basement has remained untouched since it was built in 1962 (think red shag carpet.) We would love to lighten and brighten our basement but I know my husband is getting burnt out on doing everything by ourselves. We would love to have help turning it into a comfortable place to go and watch movies and relax but that’s a long way from where it is now. I can help with sewing, painting, stenciling, I am up for anything, I’ve even been into building and refinishing furniture lately!!
Cathy
Ummmm….. YES PLEASE!!!! Waving both hands high in the air and bouncing in her seat! I chose both options. Although I am slightly more partial to option A. We’re in sunny florida close to Cocoa Beach. I live in such a stunning “cookie cutter home”. Notice the dripping sarcasim. It does need some real help. Would love, love, love to rid the house of the gorgeous popcorn ceilings. I can help with manual labor, painting or sewing, or yard work/landscaping if I go with option B.
Bre B.
Oops, forgot to add I live in Spokane, Washington!!
Allison
Our house is your canvas!!
We live in southern California, 2minutes from the beach. Our home was built in the 80’s and all of the living space needs attention! In fact, we are looking to redo the kitchen and oh how we would love to have your help and vision!!
Amy B.
Uhhh…YEAH! Come on out to beautiful Prince of Wales Island in SE Alaska! Just a (long-ish) ferry ride from Ketchikan, and you can have at my 1200 sq ft cottage-y house with partial ocean views!
P.l.e.a.s.e. Please. Pretty please.
Oh, and I sew fairly well, and paint, and am fairly handy at lots of DIY things unless it requires true technical expertise.

Are the 80’s back in style yet? Well – then yes I do need a redo! Home and Garden! Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex area
Leah Ollerman
I am 3 months new to your blog..and totally head over heels!
We just bought our first home last September, 1960s ranch-style home..it is in need of some MAJOR updating. We’ve been trying to tackle it room by room and with the help of my contractor hubby we’ve made some good progress, but still have lots to go! I need HELP on our bedroom, our office/den/guest bedroom (actually we’re not really sure what this room is right now), and our living room (big and long and awkward).
We live in Glendive/MT =)

Hello! My husband and I are currently renting our house while he finishes Pharmacy school, but my mother-in-law just moved into the most amazing house. It has TONS of potential, but she doesn’t know where to start. She lives in Farmington, NM
Jackie
How exciting! This sounds like a great venture for you guys! Congratulations! 🙂
Let’s see…..My kitchen,family room,bath, and two teens rooms that are out of control! could all use some TLC 😉 I would love your design help anywhere in our home here in New Jersey. I usually do all the Decor,painting, little repairs,light fixtures etc. myself, so I am more than willing to jump right in to help. You both are so sweet,talented and do such great work , I’m sure you give our home your magic touch to make it feel light, fresh and beautiful.
Jen
My husband is on his way home from Iraq and we’re in the process of buying a circa 1980s fixer In a breathtaking part of Northern Utah called Eden. My house is your canvas!
Tawnya Hood
LOVE the idea. I would be totally onboard to help out in any area, taking pictures, painting, tearing down, building up, creating sewing- you name it! I would LOVE to help. I would like to throw the idea out there as to a motor home makeover. We are more than likely going to lose our house soon ( we just couldn’t get the modification to go thru- we have been trying for a while.) With that said, this “pitfall” is leading us to a new adventure, one we have ALWAYS wanted to do ( well for the last 3-4 years at least) and that is to buy a motorhome and travel the US- working where we can and sharing in the LOVE and ADVENTURE our family has for one another ( we have 4 kids and 2 dogs- oh and Mr. Blueberry, the beta fish).
We have a VERY small budget for a motorhome, that we HAVE to find and buy an oldie but goodie and just fix er up. I have so many visions in my mind….so much of the inspiration comes from what I have seen on your blog. So, if you can, we wold love to have you come to Mesa, AZ and help us re-do our new house on wheels. The possibilities are endless……wood floods, wood planked walls, whites, cream, and soft blues……
Again: Mesa, AZ

Congrats on the direction you guys are going! Sounds like great things are happening, how exciting!!
Heck yes, who wouldn’t love to have Layla & Kevin redo one or multiple rooms in their house? Helping would be fun too. Either way they are sure to inspire in any capacity! We love you guys, good luck from Portland, Oregon!
Lisa C Johnson
I think this sounds like a fun new adventure! My husband and I are looking for a home to buy and we are not afraid of a fixer-upper, but if we do snag one some help on it would be amazing! We live in sunny, beautiful, St George, UT!
Kendel @ Eating Abroad
This is exciting!
If you guys are able to go abroad, I live in Bonn, Germany and would be happy to give a hand in any way possible.
Nancy T
So excited to hear your news but I’m not surprised – you guys are uber talented.
My house would definitely benefit from some of your DIY – I have a rather vanilla house because I am afraid I’ll make a mistake. It is also having an identity crisis because I love cottage style & color my furniture is traditional and I can’t figure out how to blend the two. Help.
I have no problem outside in the garden but any creativity I have seems to stop at the door.
I live in Seattle, Washington. Maybe it’s time you headed out west to see the Pacific Ocean 🙂
kristin jo
Heck ya, would love to help dear ones.
I am in Denver. My house has a den with painted paneling covering up a fireplace. I am dying to rip the paneling off the fireplace and redo the den. I also have a vintage kitchen with an awkward layout. I want to open it up to the DR.
I am a good painter, decent with a drill, and eager to learn other power tools.
Laura
L&K… You are so needed! Not so much in my life, but my 2 best girls are desperate need of a designated designer! We all live over here in Virginia Beach, Virginia, where we embrace the sweet, serene, seaside aspects of your work! Rachel and her hubby Josh just bought a house and have only really gotten as far as picking out cabinets for the kitchen… they haven’t even moved in yet! ANY room in their house is calling for some TLC touch. Michelle lives in a cute condo right in the heart of “downtown” Va Beach… but the living room actually might be a cave… On a limited single lady budget there is only so much she can do with her space, but with the help of some fab, thrifty, DIY’s, it could be rad! I would LOVE to be your assistant and help my BFF’s get the most out of their homes! These girls are my world and deserve to have a beautiful space in their home. This would be a great opportunity to give that to them! (also, I told them about you and they gave me permission to volunteer their spots!)
I am so excited for you and your new blog adventure!
All the best-
Laura

Staci
Yes!!! Come makeover my office space, which is currently a STORAGE ROOM!!! I live in Mesa, AZ and would LOVE for you to show off your talent in my space!!! My bathroom is screaming for a makeover too. The green & yellow linoleum is just not my style! Best of luck in your new adventure-3D style!
Want to do a fun twist? My parents own a cabin near Flagstaff, AZ & when I say cabin, I mean 4 walls & a bathroom. It is really old & has NO DECOR & it would be so fun to surprise my family and see what your magic touch could do to the old rustic walls!

Dani
I have been searching all over the internet for design ideas for a new home we will soon be purchasing (our first!!!) and I keep running into your blog! I absolutely love it and plan to utilize a LOT of your ideas.
I would absolutely LOVE for you to come help with our new home! It is an old 60’s home and needs a lot of TLC and we are on a major budget!
We live in Bryan, Texas
Paula
I love option A or B – please, come on by and redo a room or 3, and I will help! Or we can go over to one of my friend’s houses and I’ll help there, too. It sounds like an awesome idea!
Paula in San Francisco, California
Tera K.

Jennie Jensen

Marissa
Yes, you can come redo my house any day. I’d even join in and help you out. I live in Cypress, TX (part of the Houston metro area). If you need to see it to believe it, I actually just recently wrote a post (for a contest) about how desperately my bedroom needs a makeover.
http://craftykricket.blogspot.com/2011/05/please-vote-for-palmers.html
I am always in awe of your designs and hardwork. Glad to see things are stepping up for you!
Tiffany Hobson
Okay finger’s crossed! Yay! I would absolutely LOVE for you guys to help me put together a room or two or three! I would LOVE to help you also!! 🙂 My husband and son Max would LOVE you too, meaning more focus from me without my wheels spinning of what to fix or change. lol Sometimes I can’t focus unless everything has it’s place, looks right, and feels right. I love home and love to show off my home so pretty please come visit me in Temecula, CA. Thanks!
P.S Did I mention we have lots and lots of antiques and a great Farmer’s Market in Old Town! Fingers still crossed… 🙂
jenni
My mom needs your help BAD! Her house is so dark and cluttered and just blah. She knows it looks bad but has no idea where to start. Help her! We’re in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho but beware that if you come here you may never want to leave. Such a good idea and good luck!
Karen Flanagan
I would do just about anything to have you redo a room in MY house! I love your tastes and your positive attitudes!
Karen Flanagan
Oh, I live in Belton, Mo. I was so excited i forgot to include that 😉

HOLY MACKEREL! Think pool cabana makeover, we live on the water in Frisco (Dallas area) Texas, yeehaw! We “potentially” have the neatest pool cabana that needs some love AND our house needs love too. My art studio, our whole back end of the house was an outdoor porch, turned indoor area, 27 windows across the entire back of the house overlooking the water that we have no idea what to do with! We are working towards a beach cottage look. Even if we don’t get picked would love to show you pics of our fireplace, my pride and joy…think grouted river rocks meet found objects. (vintage screen tacks, game pieces, watch gears, fishing lures even a torched altoid tin to serve as a niche to display beach finds…..) Its a modest house with HUGE potential….did I mention jetskis and boating?? Bribe, bribe, bribe. 😉
