Spring One Room Challenge - Week Five

Hello and welcome to Week Five of the Spring 2018 One Room Challenge.  If you're unfamiliar with the ORC, it is an event spearheaded by Linda from Calling it Home where 20 Featured Designers and hundreds of Guest Participants, like myself, attempt to completely redo a room in six weeks.

For this ORC, my fifth, I am attempting to turn my parents' dark bonus room from a man-cave into a light and airy TV room.  What's new the final week before the reveal?  Paint, wallpaper, paint, upholstery, paint.  In fact, we still are not done painting. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, but don't think that means we will have a reprieve, because then starts sewing.  

Our "helpers" are never far behind

While the paint has been drying, we have also been busy reupholstering a few pieces for the room.

I think we should have a Where's Waldo type game on my blog called "Spot the Dog".  Sheesh.  Anywhoo, the upholstery turned out pretty great, if I do say so myself.  

We still have a lot to do, including:

• Sew the curtains and pillows
• Hang the curtain rod
• Pimp out the glass for the TV table
• Install door hardware
• Install lighting
• Move furniture out (bye, bye ugly recliner)
• Move furniture in (hello, leopard beauty)
• Clean
• Style for photographs Sunday

The best part?  We have three days.  Oh, I guess it would be good for us to finish painting too.  Looks like we will be having cereal for supper.  See you next week for the reveal!
