Big Boy Bedroom Transition from the Archives!
My latest One Room Challenge project is now ‘in the can,’ so to speak. Eamon’s big boy bedroom is complete, and he is now sleeping in it! It is such a relief to have finished it. We photographed it on Friday of last week, and I revealed it to him that morning (he slept in the…

We are sliding toward the finish line, and I’m not mad about it! If you’re a first-timer to our sixth One Room Challenge, let me briefly catch you up. I decided a few days after this round’s Week 1 start date to jump in as motivation to transition my 4-year-old son’s bedroom to a ‘big…

I need to begin with a disclaimer: This won’t be my most riveting blog post ever. I am exhausted, and not really feeling the writing process right now. So I’m going to keep this brief (my version of brief, anyway…). It’s Week 3…go easy on me :). I actually did accomplish some things this…

Is it Week 2 or Day 2? Actually, both. I threw my hat into the ring on this round of the One Room Challenge earlier this week (see my Week 1 post, which missed the deadline for the linkup), and I’m already beginning to wonder if I miscalculated. This is my ‘after hours’ project, but…

Surprise! I just decided to jump into the fall 2018 One Room Challenge as a guest participant. Like, literally about an hour and a half ago. This will be my sixth (!) rodeo, and I truly had no intention of doing this due to being short-staffed with a crazy workload. I believe I’m close to…

Read MoreProject Reveal: Happy Place (Part II)
As promised, I’m back for Part II of our Project Happy Place reveal. You know, the one that almost didn’t happen because my client (aka sister-in-law) and her family decided to move to a new home. It happened so fast, in fact, that they have already moved out. Like, a week ago. I have that…

It’s Week 4 of the One Room Challenge – and it’s been a doozy so far. Before I get into it – here is the scoop, if you’re coming in cold. I’m in the throes of transforming a dear client’s master bedroom into a peaceful oasis of coziness, with a little bit of ‘wow,’ in just…

Happy week three! I am fresh off a long weekend at High Point market. Well, fresh may be overstating it a bit. I am tired, physically exhausted, and mentally drained. And I had to hit the ground running with a client meeting first thing yesterday morning, despite getting home after midnight on Monday. So let’s…
