ORC: Week 3 - Painting and Priming!

Good day my lovelies and welcome to Week three of another ORC update! It's always a pleasure having you visit my little blog. This makeover began 3 weeks ago, so it would be best to visit Week 1 and Week 2  to see my plan and how I progressed to this point. 

Let's start by saying that for the past few days I've been dabbling in paint and primer...lol. The first victim was this lovely bunk bed that my kids use whenever guests stay over. The little fellow wants it in his bedroom, so I'll be using it for a swap with his full-sized bed. My original instinct was to paint it all red, but I think it looks fine, as is. What do you all think? 

Tween Bedroom Homestretch! ORC: Week 5

Tension, anxiety, and all the works usually accompany Week 5 - the final countdown. 

But in the words of Usain Bolt, the world's fastest runner, 

Worrying gets you nowhere. If you turn up worrying about how you’re going to perform, you’ve already lost. 

Easy is not an option... No days off... Never Quit... Be Fearless... Talent you have Naturally... Skill is only developed by hours and hours of work.

So to all my fellow compadres - Let's do this! Let's take this challenge to the finish line!

I am currently adding the final touches to the room and also doting on this beautiful rug. I love its burst of colors and the variations it allows for choosing accessories. 

Tween Girl's Bedroom Redo - ORC: Week 2

Wow, Week one of the challenge flew by so quickly and I just can not believe we are already in Week two. Happily, I made some progress with painting the walls and getting the popcorn ceiling scraped. The ceiling was not previously mentioned in my plan 😊, however, I thought it would be fun to try something new.  I am still contemplating what tone would work well, or if I should use a certain technique to spruce it up. But knowing me, something will definitely strike my fancy at the last minute.

Here are a few accessories I picked up for the room

Well here are some photos of what I have been up to at this point.

I painted the room and I love it! While the former bright colors were lovely, I am enjoying a new look for a change.
