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!)

Absolutely!!! I would love more than anything for you to come help me with our house. We’ve been in the fixing it up process for 2 years and I’m down to 3 rooms. I absolutely love your style and watching what you’ve done already. I’m in Harrisburg, PA. Hope to see you soon. 😉
Yes please!!! I live in the San Francisco bay area, we just bought a townhouse that I am trying to make look like a the inside of a pottery barn magazine which is a hard task! Plus I love love remaking furniture, painting and anything DIY so if you are going to be in area I am your girl, plus I know the best antique fairs!
Um hello McFly ! !
Who wouldnt want A or B or A+B = C u in 3 D 🙂
Come see me in sunny California and we can get silly.
Orcutt, CA USA
I would really love to see some home shows in areas OTHER than metro/big cities.
You can come do a room in my house any day! I would love to help you guys makeover other rooms as well…It would be a learning experience from the best : )
Rancho Cucamonga, CA
I would love for you guys to redo my kitchen/great room. I really love my home, but would like to brighten things up a bit. With walnut floors, dark alder cabinetry, and warm tones throughout, I feel like I am stuck in fall/winter. I am ready to jump into a light, bright and airy room thats is more spring/summer! I live just outside SLC, UT. I love your blog and am so excited for you guys to begin this new adventure!
I would LOVE for you to come to my house! My husband and I just bought our first home in Fayetteville, GA and have a $0 budget to make it our own. We’re drowning in beige and could really use some help. This would be a dream come true!
I would LOVE to be involved!! I’m in Casper, Wyoming….it’s great here. You’d love it. 🙂
I’m in Lexington, KY and I’d love to help! So exciting – can’t wait to find out more! You guys are awesome!
well, you can count on the whole blog world to sign up for a room redo..and yes, add me to that list!
But I’d also like to help. I used to have my own decorative painting business when that was really big (think the ’90’s) and I turned that into an Interior Decorating Business.
What I’m really good at is finding thrift store, side of the road finds, and just over all wacky things to turn into useful object ( think Junk Market – Flea Market Style )
I live in Ambler, PA , which is about 20 minutes outside of Philadelphia and 1.5 hours from NYC.
Can’t wait to see what you’re up too!
Good Luck with everything!

We live in Evansville, Indiana in a lovely subdivision-built 2-story which is unique and custom, yet classic and lovely….OH WAIT! No we don’t! Help us make our McYuck into a fantastic HOME!
I’m in Phoenix Arizona and you can come over and redo my entire house! But you might want to wait until fall, or else you’ll melt!
We have a couple rooms that need help – office, downstairs walk out with a fireplace, craft/homeschool room, guest room, living room…take your pick…they all could use some help.
Hutchinson, Minnesota.
My husband and I are in Chelsea, AL, USA. We are closing on a brand new (fully builder beige) home at the end of this month. I love reading blogs but have very little decorating skill. I would L-O-V-E to work with you and your hubby.
Really??? Yes, any room you want…some need more help than others…I’m in Bethesda, MD
I would love to have your family help my sad house! Both my sister and I have plenty of work for you to do. We both are good workers and need direction. We live in Phoenix, Arizona. It may be hot here but we do have a natural wonder of the world close by. 🙂 Jenn
Umm……is that really a question? I would absolutely LOVE for Layla and Kevin to head out to SUNNY SAN DIEGO and take over as many rooms in my house as possible. My husband and I are loving the newlywed life and feel so fortunate to be able to own a home to grow into. However, as I am sure many can relate, Newlywed + New Home = Empty/hand-me-down poor excuse for anything close to designed!
We call our bathroom the Tribute to the 70’s rock out room, our living room the P90X gym, and our office the storage room. They are all up for grabs!
I’d also LOVE to help withy any and all projects you run into out this way. I grew up with a grandma who had a paint brush in her hand every other weekend and can follow directions with best of them!
Good luck on this new adventure. I know you guys will rock it!
We’re renters right now but I would love it if you could work with my mom!!! She and her wonderful husband live in Riverside, CA, USA. They have a lovely home but it’s been YEARS since most of the rooms have been updated (she keeps asking me to help her with her guest room).
Thanks Layla and Kevin. It would be SO fun.
I’d love to have you guys come and redo our bedroom or living room.
Also I’d love to help. I can sew, do crafts, and am I good painter 🙂
From Salem, Oregon.
Can you PLAY in PEORIA!! COME on OVER!! You would LOVE the “opportunity” my house offers!! Remember there are no problems…only opportunities!! I have an ENTIRE family room brick wall fireplace–you know the one all the ranch style homes of 40 years ago HAD TO HAVE? Arrgghhh……and a master bathroom the size of a small closet–now that’s an OPPORTUNITY…a dining room that has issues….. But you choose–come over to the mid west and do what you do BEST!! Love you Kevin and Layla and bring max along-he’d fit right in!
hugs,
chris
What a deal ~ I’ll take Option A and Option B. I can paint. I can clean-up. I’m sure you would love Sunnyvale, California (bay area) right now, high-70’s. I have a whole house you can work on!
Please, I am begging you, come to my house! I’m in a small town, near Branson, MO, and my ranch needs some updating!
Wow!!! We are currently finishing our basement and my hubby has made me a craft room!! Would love to have you decorate and organize, I’m a little overwhelmed at all the possibilities!
Tallmadge, Ohio
omg, I would DIE for you guys to come to my house and do something CREATIVE!! Conroe Texas!
Hi Layla!
Met you in MN at Junk Bonanza when you were shooting – I worked with Ki……just moved home to Portland, Oregon into a great home that we have been doing some cosmetic renovations in. However, still LOTS of work to be done! The “bonus room” first comes to mind as a great room to work with – it will be a hang out space for our two daughters (ages 9 and 12) – not so much a playroom but more a stylish hangout space.
What a fabulous opportunity! Well deserved.

I would LOVE option A! I live in La Verne, California…this last year voted number four best places to live for families in the US! Twenty minutes from the beach, twenty minutes to the mountains! Such a cute little cottage town! 🙂
YES! YES! AND YES! I am all in…whatever you need. I live in Northern Indiana. Can’t wait to hear the news!
YES PLEASE!!! Just bought a cabin in the woods in Twain Harte, CA; found your website and am now inspired to decorate it “farmhouse, industrial, cottage” style but have no idea where to begin! PLEASE HELP!!
Um, yes! Come do my whole house if you want! Especially our master bedroom, which is a disaster. Culpeper, VA.
I love both ideas! You guys can come and re do my whole house!
Location: Greensboro, NC
OMG!!!! I just recently found your site and have been showing it to all of my friends and now this!!!!! I would love for you to come to Silver Lake, Kansas!! We bought an old farm house that is 120 years old after our daughter was born due to her special needs and high medical expenses! We got the house at a good price but the whole house had to be redone sooo we have spent the last eight years just trying to get it done. I would love for you to come to our home, my husband is turning 40 years old this year and it would be an awesome gift to him to give him some help with the house. He has done alot of the work himself and also been my rock through the never ending surgeries of our daughter. I would love to give him this gift so that he can rest and just enjoy the house! Plus your ideas are exactly what we are trying to do in our own home but I have no talent so any help you can give would be so appreciated!!! PS-NO SHOW EVER COMES TO KANSAS!!!! We really are nice people here in the Midwest!!!!!
oh my goodness! how exciting is this?? i might die of happiness if i got you two helping me spruce up my house! we bought our home just over a year ago, a real fixer upper and have done a lot, but there is so still so much decorating that needs to be done. my master needs seriousl help, my front room, my office, my guest room-really you could take your pick of just about the whole house! i live in a beautiful little country town, ramona, which is part of even more beautiful san diego, california! i would love to help on someones else’s home, i can do basic sewing, but am great at painting and creative type stuff. good luck and i hope to be seeing you at my home in the future!{you know you need alittle west coast beach time:)}
Please come to colorful Colorado to fix up my home office in Colorado Springs!
This would be my dream come true. I would love for you to come and work on some of my rooms. We just moved into a new house (new to us) and every wall is bare and we hardly have any furniture…like one couch and some beds. I have a vision of what I would like, I just can’t seem to do it. Plus I have three little children that seem to need my attention all of the time. PLEASE come see me!
Pasco, Washington.
Come on up to the Toronto area, we would love to have you. I’m in the fastest growing city in Canada; Mississauga, which is a 30 minute drive from downtown Toronto.
I would love to help you and you can help me 🙂 I like this reciprocal approach to diy 🙂
Please come to Hawai’i and help me with my rental! I’d love to have a beach cottage theme going, but don’t know where to start! Plus, you can’t beat a trip to the islands!
Kevin & Layla,
Come to Arkansas. I’ve got a challenge for you both! A log home. Beautiful 3 story with basement. Need a re-do there! I can help too! I’m great with paintbrush and screwdriver! I take orders well too! I’ve also tweeted this and replied to your tweet! Pick me!
Well, I don’t know how quickly you are thinking to do this, but we are trying to finish renovating our Victorian farmhouse in Knoxville, PA because we need to relocate soon to Memphis, TN area. We need to finish the renovations on our house so we can sell – so FUN!!! If you are planning to do something soon, we would LOVE to have your help!
Uh, yes please! Sign me up! I would love for your help redoing my living/dining/kitchen room haha. I live in San Antonio Texas. Come to TEXAS! No one ever comes to Texas.
HELLO. Why of course! Man, do I need HELP. And depending on the childcare situations, I could probably help too! I’m in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Love everything you do! Holla!
Yukon, OK
I’m in Los Angeles. Would LOVE to help you fix up some deserving somebody’s place–I can wield a paintbrush, sand, lug stuff, and sew easy stuff, like straight seams. Maybe most importantly, I’m a very very good baker and keep people well fed and happy.
And…I would love some help with my overly fussy dining room. It looks like an 85-year-old cat lady lives in it. Eeek!
I’m in Newark, OH (near Columbus). Have a 1980 two story, lacking in architectural detail. Dark woodwork on first floor. (I’ve painted all the windows and trim on the 2nd floor.) Need help with our long living room with it’s dark valances, wood 2″ blinds, burgundy sofa and recliner (can you believe it?). With two children in college, I’m on a budget. And, frankly, am burnt out after redoing the rest of the house in the past 15 years that we have lived here. YOU ARE SOOOOO WELCOME TO COME HERE AND CREATE!
We live in Charlotte, NC and you can have at any room in my house almost 4000 square feet of home built in the 80’s…oh yeah we could use some major help! I would give you 100% free range!
Oh my gosh! This is amazing!! Please consider making a stop to the smallest state in the country 🙂 We live outside of Providence, RI!!
SO FUN!!!! You could definitely come to my house and help us work on our living room – it needs help! Think: old mis-matched couches, garage sale furniture and walls AND ceiling painted the same boring beige that it was painted when we moved in:) It has great potential – we love our house so much, we’re just moving very very very slowly one room at a time through it since our little ones are just 2 and almost 4 and we moved into our house a week before our littlest was born, which limits our DIY time a bit! Oh, and we’re in Lancaster, PA – come visit!!
Really? Do you have to ask? I have a bedroom that is pathetically BORING & half finished! Help…
Comstock Park, MI
oooh! please come to Pittsburgh, PA and have your way with my living room!
Ummmm……ABSOLUTELY!!! I have plenty of rooms I could use
help with, and some really cute “nooks and crannies” that could
use your talent! In the past I have painted almost all the rooms
in my house and painted lots and lots of furniture. My friend is
a fabulous seamstress who makes slipcovers and upholsters
furniture so we could certainly be into doing the work:)
I live in Wayne, PA, right outside of Philadelphia
You can come redecorate my house anytime you like. On a very small budget of course. But I know that you can do anything. I would also be glad to help in the moral support department at least. I can roll a paint roller without doing too much damage! My daughter, Jaime, on the other hand, is very handy and she would probably love some decorating help as well. Love and good luck to you. You have an awesome blog. I almost hate for the world to discover you, but I know it is inevitable!
