The Addison’s Wonderland Renovation of Winnie’s New Barbie Dreamhouse…

DISCLAIMER: This post is sponsored by Walmart. All opinions are my own. Thank you to Walmart for sponsoring this post! Post contains affiliate links (read my full disclosure).

Nothing like a last minute momma! Are y’all all wrapped and ready? If so, I am SO JEALOUS. I seriously thought I was doing so good back in late October by dragging out all of my Christmas decor mega early but then life and work hit and well… it’s a day before Christmas and I am still Modpodging wallpaper and hot-gluing fabric to Winnie’s barbie dreamhouse. Oops!

Needless to say if you have been watching my IG stories lately, Ab and I have been having soooo much fun renovating this KidKraft Barbie dollhouse using my Walmart+ membership several weeks ago. I searched and searched and searched for a more “updated” dollhouse and everything I loved pointed me to Pinterest and some creative momma’s own dreamhouse renovation. Seeing as though I love a good renovation, I decided to tackle this tiny little remodel myself.

Once I received the dollhouse, the very first step was to unbox and spray paint away! I chose to spray all of the interior walls with this white Rust-Oleum primer + paint spray. Oh and we also sprayed the roof of the dollhouse with Rust-Oleum Charcoal Gray spray paint…

SPRAY PAINT

While the wall pieces were drying, we used “wood” and “marble” paper sent to me for a recent collaboration for the flooring parts of the dollhouse. Perfect timing for that shipment! It turned out soooo cute!

Once the walls were dry, we wallpapered quite a few of the walls with leftover wallpaper scraps I had saved (thank goodness!) from my own home with ModPodge. We also covered the wallpaper with it as well.

MODPODGE

Next up, MORE SPRAY PAINT! Yep, we spray painted almost every single piece of furniture white and gray as well…

The next project we decided to tackle was painting the kitchen cabinets of the little plastic kitchen set I found online. I chose an Americana acrylic paint called Spa Blue and I then set it with this clear gloss spray…

ACRYLIC PAINT

So today here I sit with just one day left to go and a Barbie dreamhouse renovation about 75% complete. Between hosting my annual family Christmas party tonight here at my house and Winnie home with me all week (hence she cannot go to the store and see what I buy), it was Walmart+ to the rescue for all of my remaining project supplies and family gifts! 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 three store trips per week. Excludes time spent shopping online. $35 minimum order. Restrictions apply.)! And, starting today, Walmart+ is introducing W+ free shipping, no order minimum on items from Walmart.com with two-day or next-day shipping options (Excludes oversized/freight & Marketplace items)!

More Peeks at Our Progress…

XOXO, Brittany Hayes

    Oh my gosh, what a labor of love ❤️ you tackled for your beautiful Winnie. You are by far one of the best moms out there. I love your whimsy and style. Anyone would be lucky to have you renovate their home. Have a very Merry Christmas and hHappy New Year with your beautiful girlies and John.

It may be five years later but this week Ab and I It may be five years later but this week Ab and I are finally finishing this tile! 🙌🏻 In my procrastination defense, I WAS going to put a shelf right there but then I changed my mind... 4 years and 11 months ago now 🤦🏻‍♀️ Better late than never! Excited to make 2021 the year I mark stuff off my list! 💗💗💗 What house project are YOU dying to get done this year?
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.

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!!!
