Announcing My Part in Invitation Homes “Make it Home” Show House!

DISCLAIMER: This post is sponsored by Invitation Homes. All opinions are my own. Thank you to Invitation Homes for sponsoring this post!

Hi friends! Aggghhhh I am so excited to share some exciting news with you guys! I have literally wanted to take part in designing a Show House for as long as I can remember. Quite possibly before I even knew I wanted to be an interior designer. I have been to soooo many model homes, show houses and “Street of Dreams” type events since I was young. My Mom always loved attending them and then I think I attended quite a few with my Dad over the years as well. I was always so goo goo eyed over such beautifully decorated homes.

So that is why I am elated to share that I have been chosen as a designer for Invitation Homes very first Make It Home Show House in Atlanta! Invitation Homes is the premier home leasing company and can be found in 17 markets across the U.S.! They have more than 80,000 high-quality, updated and professionally maintained homes with convenient proximity to jobs and good schools. Did you know that there are more U.S. households renting than at any point in the last 50 years? Also, that more than 100 million Americans rent their home? That is why Invitation Homes has put together a team of design experts to create the Make it Home Design Forecast and Show House here in Atlanta! EEEEEEEEEKKK!!!

Each of us will be designing a different room of the Show House to highlight lease-friendly, affordable design and décor tips to help make any house a home. And I have a feeling that you guys could maybe guess what REMOVABLE design feature I am going to showcase! Hint… it’s ALL OVER our home!

Here is a little sneak peek…

Now for THE DETAILS!!! The “Make it Home” Show House will be open May 15-18, with opportunities to visit the house for a designer led tour and workshop! I am so excited to be designing the formal living room with a modern take on “formal”. Keep on reading and I will share the room “BEFORE”! I am also hosting a workshop on May 17 from 10am – noon for you to come visit and learn more about removable wallpaper! Here are all of the details on my workshop…

Visit InvitationHomes.com/MakeitHome to sign up for my workshop and follow along as we make this leased house a home!

Oh and one last thing! A peek at the formal living room “BEFORE”…

Stay tuned friends!!! Lots more coming SOON!

XOXO, Brittany Hayes

    Oooh! Can not wait to see what you do to this space! The layout is almost identical to my home (except I have one large window instead of two singles). So exciting!

    This is great! I would love to know your advice for walls that have texture on them. For instance, what if the renter has orange peel texture on the walls of their rental home? Texture is pretty standard.

My home is celebrating it’s 113th birthday and A My home is celebrating it’s 113th birthday and Ab and I are celebrating our first successful project of 2021 AND the first completed week of our new blog schedule! Yep, our penny tile mosaic super detailed tutorial and reveal is LIVE on the blog as well as three more posts this week. Pop over and sign up to follow along! P.S. If you’re wondering why I chose to orient the saying this way, I pondered it for a while. In the end I chose this way because we literally never ever use this back door. Anyone entering our home either comes through the front door where this is visible down the hallway, up the basement stairs where this greets them at the top or around through our laundry room or family room. Basically when your 1908 home has a million exterior doors, most end up going unused. HAPPY FRIDAY!!! ❤️ Oh and P.S.S. This wallpaper, trim color, artwork and all of the tile details are on the post!

Ever feel like you’re going to battle choosing a Ever feel like you’re going to battle choosing a paint color? 🙋🏻‍♀️ Looking for the perfect creamy white/blue-green gray combo and tested out quite a few today. What are your faves of either? Sharing some sneak peeks at our cabin progress and my design plan on stories today! Oh and the full reveal and detailed tutorial of the penny tile mosaic we were working on last week is live on the blog today!
Did a little rustic wood shopping over the weekend Did a little rustic wood shopping over the weekend which meant I just had to snag another cutting board 💗 See it over there looking all cute? I think this one just might be cutting board wall worthy! 😉 Sharing more of my finds on stories today. Several new projects coming soon from my finds too! Also thought I’d take this “cleaned my kitchen just for this picture” opportunity to answer two of my most asked questions... what is your cabinet color and what are your countertops? My cabinets are a 50/50 color mix I created when I was determined to find the perfect blue-gray mix. It’s a full strength, equal mix of SW Stardew and SW Uncertain Gray. My countertops are Calcutta Reale marble and I’m sharing all of my thoughts about marble in a kitchen on the blog! Link in bio!
2021 coming in HOT! 🔥 Ab and I both “showed u 2021 coming in HOT! 🔥 Ab and I both “showed up today” for a full day of work in a full face of makeup and well... THIS. Links anyone? John’s socks are mighty cozy! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Baby steps into the new year. Baby steps. In other news, my closet is next on the list for completion! A few finishing touches and I’ll finally share it all on the blog ❤️
P.S. For those about to ask, the built-ins are a 50/50 mix of SW Stardew and SW Uncertain Gray at full strength just like my kitchen cabinets and main level interior doors and the island is BM Dark Harbour. HAPPY FRIDAY!
Hello 2021! We are back and READY FOR IT ❤️ Ca Hello 2021! We are back and READY FOR IT ❤️ Can’t say I’ll miss 2020 or even 2019 quite honestly. So dang ready for a new year and all kinds of new beginnings. From new projects to new business ventures and all kinds of big personal life changes, hoping 2021 is everything we are all praying it can be. Today on stories we started our first project of 2021 that’ll hit the blog next week and I wrapped up my first soon-to-be weekly inspirational/motivational/personal/raw and super real blog post that’ll be live on Monday. Missed y’all! ❤️❤️❤️
All is Merry & Bright ❤️... My love for renova All is Merry & Bright ❤️... My love for renovations just went pint-sized! I cannot even tell you how much fun Ab and I have had on this mini little renovation. #ad Winter asked for a Barbie dreamhouse for Christmas and I just couldn’t hold back. The only problem was that I only had a day or so to go and we were still wrapping twine for chandeliers and spray painting furniture… oops! Thank GOODNESS for @walmart and Walmart+. By becoming a member of Walmart+, you can save nearly 2.5 hours per week with free delivery from your store on orders $35+ (Savings based on 3 store trips per week. Excludes time spent shopping online. $35 minimum order. Restrictions apply.) With our family Christmas party last night and Winnie at home all week, sneaking off to the store wasn’t really an option. I needed a few extra dollhouse supplies and a few things for the party tonight so I hopped online and logged into my Walmart+ account. Sharing LOTS more on stories today! And, in other exciting news, Walmart+ recently introduced Walmart+ free shipping, no order minimum on items from Walmart.com with two-day or next-day shipping options (Excludes oversized/freight & Marketplace items)! #Walmartplus http://liketk.it/34yWz #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKhome http://liketk.it/34yWT
My very own sidekick WONDER WOMAN 👊🏻 This gi My very own sidekick WONDER WOMAN 👊🏻 This girl right here demoed out this entire cabin with her own two hands in 24 hours. A million pounds of junk and carpet and tack strips and everything in between. We just might have had a little fun on stories today documenting some of it too! Now it’s time for DESIGN!!! Eeeeekkkk!!!! If only y’all could’ve been a fly on the wall watching us take these pix 🤦🏻‍♀️ We finally decided, after a million failed attempts with a tiny phone tripod perched on the hood of my car, to video and then screenshot the best moment. Genius Ab. GENIUS!!!
Today is DEMO DAY for my newest cabin project!!! A Today is DEMO DAY for my newest cabin project!!! Ab and I have been daydreaming about this day for quite a few weeks now. #ad There’s something oddly satisfying about ripping things apart and throwing things away. Now all we need is a NAME for the new cabin. I still can’t decide! Would love to hear more ideas ❤️ Oh and don’t worry... I won’t be wearing my new @walmart outfit for the demo 😜 And one last thing... I’m sharing my latest @walmartfashion haul on the blog today as well as on stories in just a bit! These $29 flare jeans are THE BEST 🙌🏻 #WalmartFashion http://liketk.it/346w6 #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100
