One Week Late and 8 Feet Short - One Room Challenge

Guess what? It's week 5 of the One Room Challenge!!!! If you aren't familiar with the challenge, Calling It Home hosts a 6 week challenge where bloggers and designers redo one room (You can check out more here). When I decided to participate I thought, man 6 weeks to do one room (I chose my office) that's nothing. I can probably wrap that one in a couple of weeks. I was wrong. Truthfully the injury had everything to do with the delays but still! 

Last week, week 4, I didn't even post. Why? Because I hadn't done a thing! It was production week and I just didn't have time. Since then, I've been in overdrive trying to get caught up and while, I got done what I needed I have A LOT to do in the next 7 days. Like what? Oh painting my desk and reupholstering a chair. Nothing much (shakes head).

So, what did I do last week? I purchased a ton of crown and casing and trimmed out the windows and ceilings. Wouldn't you know that I bought too much crown and not enough casing (shopping while on a bit of pain meds results in miscalculations). I got everything up and found out I was one 8 foot piece of casing short of finishing. Bummer!

I headed back out and purchased what I needed and got to work. I finished the trim, painted and hung drapes. Want to see the progress? Here's a couple of teasers to hold you over until next week. 

What haven't I taken care of?

Ugh... I am not looking forward to going through all of this over the weekend. But at least when it's done, it's done. 

That's it for this week's update. Tune in next week and see the final reveal!!
