Calling All E-Friends

May 5, 2011 By Layla

Greetings!

We have some exciting news to share today!  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)  (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!)

    Of course I would love design help! I adore your blog and your style. I live in a funky little beach town in California – Cardiff by the Sea.

    I would love to have some help in my own home. We’ve got so many DIY projects to tackle. Front porch? Yep. Kitchen? That too. And there’s the painted stair runner that is yet to reach completion. Did I mention the horribly slanted patio out back? We just need a push and maybe some help.

    I would LOVE to have you come to my house and I would LOVE to help you with a project. I am a busy mom of three kids and I am needing to break out and do something CRAZY and FUN! I can’t wait to see your show. Your blog and your style is my favorite and gives me great inspiration! I am on a design/reno high right now…
    I am near Atlanta Ga.
    Thanks!

    I need desperate help with my L shaped living room and my kids’ playroom. My living room is so blah, the boys like having space to run and play but I would love it if I could make it a bit more “proper” without sacrificing their playtime.

    We love IKEA and warm colors, we’re in Silicon Valley, and would love to have you guys over!!!

    I would LOVE it! We live in Southern California, Aliso Viejo to be exact and our kitchen is teeny tiny and is vintage, as in not the good vintage as in late 80s early 90s vintage. It would be sooo fun to do, I love ALL of your work! 🙂

    May 5, 2011 at 3:48 pm

    YES PLEASE! I need some major help transforming my builder grade house into a cottage with style, so you can help me with ANY room! I live out in the country in Snohomish, WA. Love you guys!

    We would LOVE to be a part of this. We are a young couple getting married this summer and starting to put together our first place for the two of us. It is exciting and fun. While just in an apartment now, we are looking to move to a small house soon!

    We live in the Chapel Hill/Carrboro area in North Carolina and would love to welcome you down to the Tar Heel state.

    I would love to help out if you’re down this way, as I worked as an interior painter for a summer job stint, and I have built enough DIY projects to be considered an amateur carpenter!

    May 5, 2011 at 3:49 pm

    Oh yes please! I live in Centerville, Ut.

    My kitchen and my playroom…as well as my master bathroom and I’m sure a few other rooms, needs some low dough high smile type attention!

    I also adore helping others transform their space. Love to lend a hand when I can.

    Oh yes……I’m in central Texas. A small town called Smithville. A lovely and charming old town where Hope Floats was filmed. There are soon to be about 5 other movies released that were filmed here…One being Tree of Life with Brad Pitt and Sean Penn. I would love to meet you and give you a tour!

    I’m in for whatever – sounds exciting! My husband and I bought our first house together almost two years ago and our making it ours – one room and DIY project at a time.

    We live in Wichita, KS. I know everyone is dying to come here. 🙂

    Oh my goodness! My husband and I read your blog everyday together (we’re both big DIYers now that we have our 1940’s cottage). We live in Valdosta, Georgia. Our home is beautiful and has a ton of character. However, a few year’s back, an addition was made to the house (an office, master bedroom, and bathroom) to connect the home to a freestanding garage. Unfortunately when the owners did this, they did little to ensure this new part of the house maintained the wonderful charm and character found throughout the rest of the house.

    Also, we’d be happy to help with your projects! I am really creative/crafty and my husband works for a commercial construction company. We’d love to be a part of your new endeavor. I just started a blog and you can find it at http://www.zachandcallie.blogspot.com

    So excited for you and we sincerely hope it works out for you!

    um ABSOLUTELY! That would be incredible!!! You could pick any room in the house. I live in Brentwood TN, right outside of Nashville

    There is nothing quite like finding peace and solace in your own home. I’ve had many life changing events in the past few years that caused me to hasten my retirement. From my own health, my dad’s death and my sweet mother moving in with us. Since then, I have been on a continous mission to try and find a calming order in my home. Being a caregiver when everyone says to care “for yourself” is an impossible job. I have found that I can’t focus on any one thing because I am trying to focus on everyone else. I daily play Design on a Dime by moving around the things I have! HELP….. I would love some guidance to finally be able to put my feet up and say, “Ah…..I’m home.”

    Abslutely! No question!
    We are in the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex! Good luck!!!!!

    I would want you to help if I HAD a house. But I’m willing to help you if you need it. 🙂 Just a general helping hand nothing special. Oh… Salt Lake City, UT.

    In the process of moving to Charleston, SC. I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog and house and already plan on trying a few of your ideas in our new place. I am sure you would do a better job in our house than we would! You would be welcome to any and all rooms in our house.

    How so very exciting! I would love help with our living/dining room. And I would love to help with crafting! We are in Nor Cal. Hope to hear more very soon! I love your style and awesome ideas!!!

    We would LOVE for you to come and redo as many rooms in our home as you want! Den, kitchen, master br, office, guest room, are all in desperate need as well as the basement that we can’t figure out what to do with that was never finished. Built in 1961 I believe. We are desperate for help since we are lacking in creativity. Our friends just took pity on us and came over and painted our living room and dining room. They also switched them (we would never have thought of it) but I think it is still lacking something. We live in the Nashville, TN area.

  21. Chrissy

    May 5, 2011 at 3:51 pm

    You’re welcome to come anytime! I’ve got one huge room with a totally open floor plan and a neglected master bedroom. I’m just 15 minutes from Albuquerque, NM in the East Mountains. We’d love to have you!

  22. alison

    May 5, 2011 at 3:51 pm

    Congratulations to you! This is such exciting news.

    Having you two come to our house and helping us out would be a dream come true! I absolutely adore your style. You can have your choice of any room (or even rooms!). We’re located 20 minutes outside of Boston, MA.

  23. Irene

    May 5, 2011 at 3:52 pm

    I would love for you and your e-peeps to redo a room in our new place. We are in Massapequa, NY. I am game for anything!!!

    Would welcome a room redo here in Phoenix, AZ!

    May 5, 2011 at 3:52 pm

    If I had any talent to offer, I would! But the first option would be such fun.

    We live on a farm near Dahlen, ND (you’ll have to google!)

    Considering we’ve been without a kitchen for over a month with no completion in sight … we still have teenage sons bedroom, main bathroom, master bed/bath that all need total renovations… PLEASE HELP!!! {Philadelphia suburbs}

    Hey! My apartment needs therapy. I’m an interior designer by profession, but when it comes to my space I just can’t get a style hammered down. I’m not into spending money just to have things, so what I’ve invested in, I am pleased with, but there’s a lot of inherited items that I’m just not into. Also, I have a skeptical husband (also a rocker) who is not easily swayed into decorating ideas. I just started following your blog and would love to work with you!

  30. Debbie

    May 5, 2011 at 3:53 pm

    Either one would be right up my alley!!

    May 5, 2011 at 3:53 pm

    Oh, this would be awesome. I close on my new-to-me 1940’s era bungalow/cottage in a couple of weeks. I’d love a hand in making this place truly my own. I’m in Fort Worth, TX.

  32. mandy

    May 5, 2011 at 3:53 pm

    Yes please! We live in Portland, Oregon and you can re-do any (or every!!!) room in our home!

  33. Jessica

    May 5, 2011 at 3:53 pm

    Yes, yes, yes! Come to Portland, Or. I need help! My family room is the most awkward room ever and mr. will not give up his massive, ugly recliner…I have no special talents other than I’m pretty good with a paint brush and I’m an expert thrift shopper:)

  34. Teresa Atkinson

    May 5, 2011 at 3:53 pm

    Goodness – yes I would LOVE to have you makeover any and/or all the rooms in my house.

    You can zoom on over to our house! We have a family room that’s the craziest shape ever and seems impossible to make it feel cozy. We’re live in Brownsburg, IN a suburb of Indianapolis.

    Good luck with your fun new endeavor’s!

    Cheers,

    May 5, 2011 at 3:56 pm

    Sounds like something fun is in the works! My husband and I would love some help with a room in our home or we’d be just as happy to lend a hand as you spruce up a room in a friend’s home. We live near Philadelphia in Bucks County, PA.

  46. Kristie

    May 5, 2011 at 3:57 pm

    There’s not a room in our house that doesn’t need a re-do. I would love to have you come to my home and work some magic. We could set up a “command central” for you in our 5th wheel camper and you could stay as long as you needed to. Oh, and we live in Friedens, Pennsylvania.

  47. Jenny Spires

    May 5, 2011 at 3:57 pm

    Done! Pick me!!! I’m in Phoenix, Arizona!

    I’m not gonna lie, I don’t have any cute home stories at all. I JUST moved into a new, cute apartment with my family in our perfect location in our perfect neighborhood. I’m a photographer, so I constantly help other people make beautiful things for their homes but fall short on my own! There is a lot of room to play and I love some DIY projects and have TONS of people to help!!!

    If you would like to do more spaces while your in Phoenix, I’ve got loads of other places too!

    xoxo

  48. Stacy

    May 5, 2011 at 3:57 pm

    I would love to help with someones space! I am good with power tools and I love to paint (walls or furniture).
    What a fun idea 🙂

    I have a sister who lives in C.C. Texas. She’s been putting off her kitchen for many years. My sister has sacrificed living a dream (to finish it) for too long. She has a big heart and puts her money towards her kids education and others first. I know that she’s doing a little upstairs to her son’s room. Please help me give her this gift to finish her dream kitchen, from you and your crew. Hoping to make her dream come true!
    A big thanks for your thoughtfulness!

  50. Jill

    May 5, 2011 at 3:58 pm

    I am dying for your help!! Your style is inspirational to me and works with mine so well. My husband and I are do it yourselfers(??) as well. We live in Utah and we would love to work with you. I have just the room…my master bedroom.
