One Room Challenge™ Spring 2015, Week 1

Welcome to the One Room Challenge™. These twenty designers have agreed to participate in the ORC. They will be transforming a space in their home, or the home of a client, and documenting the process every Wednesday. Each week, they will provide you with specific design ideas, tips, and products that you can use when transforming a space in your home.

One Room Challenge Participating Information

It has been so fun to see some of the #oneroomchallenge posts on Instagram. I really have no idea who will be joining in on Thursday's, but I can promise you....it will be fun. 

Some of you are very familiar with the process, while others may not be. If you already know the drill, grab your logo, and I look forward to seeing you this Thursday. If this is your first time joining in, you may want to read these tips. 

You have six Thursday posts to complete your room transformation. For some of you technical people, it is actually five weeks......unless you have already started. Each Thursday, after you have published your room transformation update, come by and link up your progress (a direct link to your post is best). 

Many readers and stalkers will visit you on a day other than Thursday. By placing this logo on your site, and linking it to your room, you will be able to help guide the traffic to your One Room Challenge™ project. 





Just in case you are still feeling a little overwhelmed, here is the posting schedule with sample topics you can use or replace:

Thursdays, April 2nd (week 1) - Introduce your space, and tell us your plan. 

Thursday, April 9th (week 2) - Show us your progress. What have you accomplished?

Thursday, April 16th (week 3) - Have you encountered any setbacks? Any happy accidents?

Thursday, April 23rd (week 4) - How's it going? Week 4 is the hardest!

Thursday, April 30th (week 5) - Did you revise your plan? Hang in there, you can do it. 

Thursday, May 7th (week 6) - The Finale - It's all about the pictures.

And just like that, you have a finished, or almost finished, or at least more than half way, or at least started.......room transformation!

We are all here to support one another. This will never be a competition. Jump in, and have fun. 

I hope to see you on Thursday, April 2nd.

One Room Challenge Love

Whew, have you made it through all of the One Room Challenge rooms? I finished the twenty on Wednesday, and am more than half way through the 90 on Thursday. Everyone did an amazing job and if you don't believe me, here is just a sampling of ORC features from around the web.

Kate from Centsational Girl put the ORC in her BOTB series. 
Design Manifest                                                                Stephanie Krauss


Nancy from Marcus Design gave a nice feature with a sampling of the group.


Nicole from Sketch 42, who also had her prints in two of the rooms, highlighted some while linking to everyone.


Jen from Rambling Renovators spent a great deal of time on all the participants with some of her favorites.



Jennifer at Belclaire House had some favorites.


The adorable Cassie from Hi Sugarplum was checking everyone out


And then there was the Instagram love.









And if that's not enough....Domaine Home has already featured Naomi's ORC kitchen makeover!

It's always fun to see people celebrate their favorites. In case you missed it, you can see the Wednesday group of 20 here, and the Thursday group of 90+ here.
