What’s the One Room Challenge?
The One Room Challenge® (ORC) is an 8 week challenge for designers and DIYers alike to transform one room of their choosing into their wildest dreams. It’s not a competition but rather a support group for designers/DIYers to uplift and encourage one another. Click here to find out more!
It’s the last week of The One Room Challenge® before reveals! And of course I have been sick these last two weeks, so progress has been kind of at a stand still. That being said I did complete the floating shelves build. That’s a win!
Although I purchased what I thought was “the” table last week, we are back on the hunt as it was not what I expected. The colour was awesome, however the separation in the wood was giving too farmhouse for my comfort. So I returned it and now I am back on the hunt. With delays still rampant in the furniture industry, I doubt my end table and console table will arrive before the challenge end date.
Here’s a quick peak at some of the decor items without giving away too much.
Remaining “To-Do List”
- Extend crown molding around fireplace
- Repaint fireplace surround
- Stain shelves
- Find creative seating
- Find console table
- Find an end table
- Decorate, decorate!
