One Room Challenge Week #4 Spring 2024 – Fake It Till You Make It
Another week down and my One Room Challenge is coming along. If you’re just tuning in, I’ve joined the One Room Challenge which is a design challenge where you pick one room in your house to renovate and/or makeover. I have eight weeks to finish a room in my house and every Wednesday I upload the link to this blog post on the One Room Challenge website. You’ll be able to see everybody’s progress as well as tons of inspiration for every room in your house and even some outdoor spaces. This is Week 4 and if you want to see Weeks 1-3, I have the links at the bottom of this post.
Spring Cleaning – Pantry Reorganization
The one thing I don’t look forward to every year is Spring Cleaning. I capitalized it, because it’s definitely a “thing”. My mother made it so when I was a little girl and it’s ingrained into me. Now don’t get me wrong, I love the freshness in the air, the warmer weather and all of the outdoor activities, but the pollen is killing me and I never feel up to all of the Spring Cleaning that needs to be done. My Allegra has seemed to stop working so I will have to find something else to combat my itchy eyes, stuffy nose and dry throat.
One Room Challenge Week #3 Spring 2024 – It’s Getting Real
It’s Week 3 of the One Room Challenge Spring 2024 and I am fully immersed in the process and getting all my ducks in a row. The One Room Challenge is an eight week challenge where designers and decorators are invited to pick one room in their home and renovate or redecorate it in an eight week span. We post on the ORC website every week and you can follow along with your favorites. Obviously, I hope you follow me on my journey.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
