Hi All! So, with a little encouragement from Jennifer at Brave New Home, I've decided to participate in the One Room Challenge.
For those of you who don't know what it is, for the next six weeks on Thursdays you will see a post about our Guest Bedroom. The goal of the challenge is to get the room done by the end, with the reveal on the 6th week. Crazy, right? The challenge is put on by Calling it Home. I can't wait to follow along and see the other rooms that are going to be transformed.
The room that I'm working on is our guest bedroom. A lot needs to happen in there! Here are the before pictures:
Well, that's embarrassing. Lol. Look at that computer screen! I don't think it's ever been dusted. Oops.
I made up a mood board with two different looks that I love and want to work off of for the room.
I'm leaning toward the left side but will decide for sure in the next few days.
So, what's on the "To-Do" list??
- Paint Walls
-Paint all Trim and Doors
-Upgrade Bed to Queen (Mattress/Bed Frame)
- Add texture and interest
- Update side table
-Bring in plants
I hope you love following along on this challenge.
Jenna
How exciting is this?!?! I'm playing along too and can't wait to see what everyone does with their rooms!
I giggled at your computer comment:) Stuff becomes invisible until we show it in public, right?
Good luck on your room, excited to see the your process!
Ashley Mayes
Yay! Going to stop by and check it out. Lol. =)
Charlotte
Wow, I don't remember the wall being that bright! LOL
Can't wait to see what you have in store!
Ashley Mayes
Yes! I had most of it covered with curtains and a big mirror. Quite hideous!
Dana
So fun! I like the one on the left too. Looking forward to your final decision.
Ashley Mayes
Thanks so much!
Amber
ooooooo! How fun! I like both designs you did and would have a hard time choosing! Excited to follow along!
Ashley Mayes
Thanks Amber! I'm pushing toward the left for sure. =)
Kristi
LOVE where you're going with this! It's going to be {gorgeous}!!!
Ashley Mayes
Thanks Kristi! I'm hoping I can pull it off!
Claire Brody
Both design plans are great!! Seriously I love both so much. But if I HAD to choose, I think I would go with the left one. Can't wait to follow along!
Ashley Mayes
Thank you! I did decide on the left side. =)
Erin Meyer
I love what you have planned for this space! I think either side of your mood board will be great (or a little combination from both sides). Good luck!
Ashley Mayes
Thanks Erin! I do love both sides so I'm hoping to do a bit of both.
Linda @ Calling it Home
Going to be hard to choose between the two ideas. Whichever you chose will look great, and I am so excited to see.
Ashley Mayes
Thanks Linda! I'm hoping I can pull it off!
Krystal
That will be a fun project! I love that mirror where did you get it?
Ashley Mayes
Thank you! I actually got the mirror at a Garage Sale for $10 a few years ago. The lady said that originally she had bought it from Pottery Barn but it has been quite awhile!
