Week Five of the one room challenge - linking participant

Welcome to week 5 of the One Room Challenge. If you missed the previous weeks you can start here.

I'm making some steady progress now people!
 Here's a few sneakity peek pictures and updates on the room.

Window treatments were installed.



Accessories were chosen
 


 
 And consoles were styled
 

That's huge!

So I thought I'd share...
 
Random facts about this room
 
1.This room was done on a VERY tight budget since the entire first floor was renovated and most of the budget went to tearing down walls, moving duct work, demolishing a kitchen and putting in a beautiful new kitchen. What does this prove? ...you don't need to spend thousands of dollars to change the look of a room. You just need totally awesome clients and a very savvy and budget conscious decorator (wink, wink).

2.  For this room I didn't buy one piece of furniture. nada. I reused all of my clients furniture and reupholstered her chairs and added leaves to her table so the furniture would fill out the room.

3. The star of this room you ask??? ---the deep navy walls of course. Paint is the least expensive way to add high drama to a room. Nothing else compares or even comes close. End of story.

4. All photos taken of this room are by Andrew Lam Photography-- thanks Andrew.
 
 
You'll have to wait until next week to see it all come together ... if it does (here's hoping)!!!

And feel free to pin anything you like by hovering over the picture or go ahead and share it on facebook. Why not?
