Dear Genevieve
Dear Genevieve,
My good friend Mandy is so sweet and nice that I can't believe she's even friends with me. She is the mother of twin boys which means earlier this year they had to sell their charming--but sadly too small--home with a beautiful recently remodeled kitchen:
To move into a bigger, more family-friendly home with--sadly--this kitchen:
No need to adjust your computer screen--that's really how it looks.
This poor kitchen has great bones, but is sadly outdated with cabinets that are falling apart, a stained countertop and sink, and nasty, yucky, carpet for the flooring. That's right--you heard me. Carpet. Now I know you can't turn your back on a house full of twin toddlers and a kitchen with carpet Genevieve!
And I'm hoping my wonderful blog readers can't either! Please vote for my friend Mandy's kitchen to receive a free makeover from HGTV designer Genevieve Gorder on her new show Dear Genevieve. To show your support all you need to do is CLICK HERE and give her kitchen a rating of 5 stars. It's quick! It's easy! And your vote will buy me at least one more curse word in Mandy's presence before she realizes I'm probably a bad influence.
Thanks everyone!

Voted with 5 stars for your friend...and very much in agreement that she does need a kitchen overhaul. Best of luck to her!
Yikes! At least her "new" kitchen is pretty big. I'll vote right away!
No problemo! =)
Done! I love Genevieve!!
Thanks D! You are the best...and not a bad influence at all! ;)
I voted! Wish her luck for me!
I tried voting, but it kept saying I've "stumbled across a problem and to try again". I will try again later.
I'm having the same problem - it's won't let me vote!
I love her old kitchen!
I'm trying to vote but it won't let me. I'll try again.
FYI, you're at 1500 readers today! Congrats!!!
done! poor thing - her old kitchen was gorgeous!!! i'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for her. :)
Sorry. My previous post was riddled with spelling errors.
I voted for her, and by the 3 pages of comments on the site, it looks like everyone else is rooting for her as well! But I have to ask: WHERE did she find those fabulous retro kitchen accesories?! I'm swooning!
Done! I hope she wins!
I love Genevieve! I hope your friend wins.
Done!
Could you pretty please harass your friend and find out what the old house's paint color is??! its the perfect gray/tan !! i promise to vote! (yes thats bribery)
Oh my I hope she wins! xo
Amber...the blender is from Walmart believe it or not! The jadite cake stands are from antique shops and the measuring cups are from Anthropologie. :)
Katie...our old kitchen's color was from Sherwin Williams and I believe it was called relaxed khaki.
D! I've missed you - and fallen off the face of the planet apparently. But had to comment (to all of your posts in one). You are the cutest pregnant lady ever, and those salty bars look phenomenal. And this kitchen totally deserves Dear Genevieve - but I'm LUSTING after her previous kitchen. White beadboard cabinets? Yes please!
My kitchen too had carpet when I first moved in. In fact the carpet started in the bathroom, moved into the hallway and ended in the kitchen. Within the first 3 months of living here, the carpet in the kitchen was replaced. Sadly it still lies in my bathroom.

That carpet is horrible. I guess I shouldn't complain about the state of some of my rooms. I will keep my fingers crossed that GG comes through for your friend.
Thanks so much everyone! You're all so wonderful to vote for my friend, thank you!
Nooooooo the link is not working for me and I am lost in HGTV website error-hell.
good luck! I hope she wins
Love Mandy! I've voted before but just now voted from my work computer too. Hee-he! Crossing my fingers for you, Mandy!
(What a sweetheart you are, D, to do this.)
Send her right on over to my blog to see the kitchen post! She can do wonders with those cabinets on her own, I'm sure of it!
Thanks for following, I'm loving reading your posts and you are the most adorable little preggo woman!! Seriously cute!
Amanda
Voted! How long does it usually take to find out if she wins it or not??! BTW... I've been reading your blog for months now but have never commented...I love all of your decorating and congrats on the baby girl!! :)
Thanks everyone! I don't know how long it will take to see if Mandy's kitchen is chosen or not, but if she is I will be sure to do a follow-up blog post to let you know. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed!
@Amanda & Katie B.--Thank you for your sweet compliments! I'm so happy to hear you're enjoying my blog!
