Welcome to the One Room Challenge. This is an opportunity for DIY-ers and Designers to work in tandem, while finishing a room in their home. Each blogger will be posing their progress every Wednesday... and maybe even a few updates in between. Without further ado.....here are the participants
As you can only imagine, trying to coordinate posting schedules for a group this large, was nearly impossible... not to mention the fact that this runs over The Fourth of July and Canada Day. Therefore, unlike the first ORC, each blogger was given the flexibility to work at their own pace as their summer schedule permitted. Some people joined the group as recent as a few days ago! The overall goal is unanimous...to entertain and inspire you with our best attempt!
Updates: Week 2.... Week 3 ....Week 4.....Week 5....Week 6
Let the games begin....
I will be tackling my master bedroom. It is number 4 on my Home Goals for 2012. I have procrastinated on this room for four years. just like many of the men I have dated, It has so much potential.
Starting with the positives....I love my Tommy Bahama bed. OK, that is all the nice things I have to say. Here are my annoyances with this part of the room
Here are a few real problems
The light switch is so far away, I fall out of bed when I reach over to turn it off. The swing arms on the fixture are not long enough to be useful. The cords are like that because the outlet is behind the dresser and the cords are too thick and need to be put on an extension cord.
Now for this side of the room
Again, with the positives...I love the ceiling detail and the big window. The pineapple chandelier has potential...again with the potential.
My plan for this side
The final corner....the one that I feel I will be judged over. Yes, people...I have a large television in my bedroom. I also have a few bits of exercise equipment that I don't intend on using. I will not make excuses for the television....I have a ton of excuses for the exercise equipment.
What do I like about this corner....that ehffing tv! In fact, I was never "Tardy for the Wedding" on this baby.
My plan for this corner
I wold make a list...but I don't want that level of accountability.
One quick pole, before you go....How wold you update this chandelier?
I am open to all your suggestions....except the trash, my husband already voted for that!
