ORC – Spring 2017 Edition – Week 1!

April 5, 2017 By Lidia 12 Comments

It’s One Room Challenge time!!!  What is this about you ask? Linda from ‘Calling it Home’ organized a challenge to bloggers and designers to makeover a space in 6 weeks (gah!) She features 20 fabulous bloggers and allows guest participants to link up (one of which is me!) each week as the makeover is happening every spring and fall.  A daunting task but I’m up for the challenge!  (*ask me how I feel next week*)

I’m taking on our powder room which isn’t in bad shape but it needs a revamp. The walls are brown, the mirror isn’t something I’d pick, the floors need a re-do, etc.

Time for a change!  (Read: John is nervous)  Here is my mood board for this space:

It’s inspired by pictures I took at the beach in Fort Myers this winter.  You know me with birds. I’m thinking it should be a calm and serene space while you’re doing your business.

(Side note, do you remember this post? Yeah I kept waffling about the faucet but now I love it – design love wavers let me tell you)

In the upcoming weeks I’ll be taking on our floors, putting up some wallpaper, painting, adding in new fixtures, lighting, artwork, etc.  6 weeks is do-able, right?  RIGHT?!  (*cue internal panic*)

      LOL! I think that artwork may need to retire until I can come up with another space for it! (Side note, I wonder what the contents would look like now?!)
