One Room Challenge - Laundry Room Redo - The Finale

Hello and Welcome to The Finale of the One Room Challenge!  It has been a whirlwind 7 weeks getting my parent's laundry room from post-Katrina-sheetrock-repair-meets-1999-oak-cabinet-overload to the colorful, chic space it is now.  I must say, I am thrilled with how it turned out. 

Before I get to the good stuff, I would like to offer another thanks to Linda from Calling it Home for once again hosting the fantastic One Room Challenge.  Hats off to you, sweet friend.

What reveal is complete without a reminder of just how sad this space was before?

It is hard to believe that in just seven short weeks, we went from that to this:

Meet my sisters, Holly and Chelsea

Shade fabric  |  Art  |  Faucet  |  Wallpaper  |  Paint



Chandelier - vintage

Rug

Garment Rack - DIY

 

 

 

Pulls


Thank you again to my parents for allowing me to be a little daring in their home and a huge shout out to Amy Holloway of Amy Holloway Photography for the absolutely beautiful photos.  If you are in the Mobile area, she does phenomenal work and I could not recommend her more. 

Please be sure to spend some time visiting the One Room Challenge Featured Designers as well as the Guest Participants.  Thank you for taking the time to share this journey with me!

One Room Challenge - Laundry Room Redo - The Reveal(ish)

Hello and Welcome to the ORC Reveal(ish). 

Unfortunately, my photographer has fallen ill so I have had to hire a back-up.  She isn't available until tomorrow, so my reveal post will be up on Saturday.  In the meantime, here is a bit of iPhone eye candy to tide you over.

 

 

See you on Saturday!

One Room Challenge - Laundry Room Redo - Week Six

Hello and Welcome to Week Six of the ORC.  If this is your first time joining and you would like to  get caught up, visit Week One, Week Two, Week Three, Week Four, and Week Five.

As you are likely aware, the ORC is typically a six-week challenge, however, due to the many natural disasters that have struck our great nation this year, our hostess with the mostest Linda from Calling it Home, has graciously allowed for an extra week.  Thank goodness for that!  This week we are going to talk about art.  This is the most difficult thing for me to choose for someone else.  Art is very personal and what one person adores, another abhors.  (I cannot adequately express the depth of my pleasure in that rhyme).

I sent Mama tons of options for the room.  She immediately fell in love with the work of YangYang Pan, a Canadian artist that has the most beautiful, colorful abstract art.

 



 

Stunning, aren't they?  Obviously, her originals go for far more money than we wanted to spend for a laundry room, so we were thrilled to find that she sells prints in her Etsy shop.

 

She was amazing to work with and our art arrived quicker than expected.  We framed them in these brass frames from Target.  I love how they turned out.

One Room Challenge - Laundry Room Redo - Week Five

Hello and Welcome to Week 5 of the ORC.  If you are new here, you can see the progress we have made on my parent's laundry room - Week One, Week Two, Week Three, and Week Four.  As always, a huge thank you to Linda from Calling it Home for hosting this awesome kick-in-the-pants event to help motivate us to get this room completed!

Last week I showed you the paint color we selected and how we started painting the cabinets.  Guess what we did this week?  Paint.  Yep. 

And Paint.

Check out Daddy making his blog debut.  True story - Mama asked me to crop out the fact that he was in his PJs.  I refused - I think he looks casually classy.  Besides, he has a hat on...so that makes it an outfit.
