One Room Challenge (week 3)
Hi Everyone, thank you for coming back! This is week 3 in the One Room Challenge. In case you are new here, you can start the challenge series here. This week, I think I made a fair amount of progress with my room. I managed to finish my side chairs. If you have not seen them, you can check them out here. This is how you last saw my dining room
I also finished the planks on the ceiling and I LOVE it!! Unfortunately, if you follow the #1RoomChallenge on Twitter, you know I fought hard to get the semi-gloss ceiling finish looking good. I love the way it looks here. However, working overhead on a ceiling when you are only 5'3" (on a good day) is a challenge. After the entire weekend of up and down on the ladder, I broke down and called a painter. He is here today putting the finishing coat on it. On the bright side, since I did ALL the prep work and one coat, it isn't costing very much (hey, a tip!).
Moving on, this corner (before)

Now looks like this
And this pine piece (before)
Has been relocated to another room, and replaced with this piece that I had
It is cream and could use a fresh coat of paint. Do I paint it cream again, or white?
The sconces also got a fresh coat of paint. From this
To this
What color shades do you think I should do?
Remember when I asked you what color I should paint my lanterns? Well, here is a peak into the direction I think I am going
The 6 weeks are flying by and I am not sure how it is going to end. I can't wait to come back and find out. Thanks for checking in with my room, now be sure to make the rounds to the other rooms and see how they are doing. For week 4, go here
