One Room Challenge: The Final

Has it really been six weeks already?  I cant believe the One Room Challenge (and the Summer for that matter) have flown by so quickly!

While this is suppose to be the final reveal, I call it my work in progress reveal.  I had big plans to get my shams monogrammed, but thanks to the USPS and a few glitches they arrived just in time for week 6.  They head out tomorrow to finally get monogrammed.

Ok enough talking, no one wants words in these posts, they just want pictures. To check out my progress over the past weeks go here. 

These were the many looks of my bedroom over the years and where I started from 6 short weeks ago...

...and here is how my bedroom looks after 6 weeks of work

The view from the door

I switched up the art. I still love the other pink and blue frames I did, I just have to find a new home for them

You don't even want to know how long that damn bolster pillow took me to make.  Lets just say I watched the ENTIRE opening ceremony for the Olympics, plus some.  I mean it involved using Pi (3.14) and for a Friday night my brain power was limited to say the least.  But miraculously it turned out perfect. Or what I like to think is perfect.

That blue and white striped chair has been the one constant in this space. You can't go wrong with a good stripe.

Just imagine those orange trimmed shams with a lovely monogram on them, ok.

I cant get enough of my gold leafed mirror. I should have done it YEARS ago.

It started to get dark out, hence the yellowy photo.  I'll take better ones once the shams are done. But my new tray and the cross stitched art are a lovely addition to my nightstand.

 I whipped up those silhouettes just as an option for the bedroom.  Clearly I like to have choices and options.  But they came out better than I expected and replaced the crazy pink and blue framed DIY art. At least for today.

My new jewelry box used to hold a Wine Rabbit.  Spray paint and a monogram really can turn a pumpkin into a carriage.

The end.

There you have it.  This ends the super fun One Room Challenge for now.  I do have a few other updates (like those shams) but for now I'm so glad I decided to just go for it and give my bedroom a good overhaul.  It certainly needed it. 

A big thank you to Linda from My Crafty Home Life for organizing this- I had a blast!!
