If it's your first time here welcome!
Thanks for popping over to see what I'm up to during this six week challenge.
I'm so very thankful to Linda at Calling It Home for asking me to be an official participant in the One Room Challenge this Spring.
I'm so very thankful to Linda at Calling It Home for asking me to be an official participant in the One Room Challenge this Spring.
I'll be honest the ORC has been the best incentive for me to complete a room in my own home. I tend to procrastinate when it comes to making decisions for my own house.
In my last ORC I refreshed our dining room. You can check out the details here.
So my daughter is thrilled that I'm participating this time around because it's her room I'm going to tackle.

So my daughter is thrilled that I'm participating this time around because it's her room I'm going to tackle.
Here's what it looks like now
 |
| Ralph Lauren pink and toile custom bedding and draperies |
 |
| Original nursery furniture |
 |
| Vintage headboard and footboard |
 |
| Extremely messy closet |
Don't get me wrong I love the bedroom and I was crazy about this pink and white Ralph Lauren toile. But I installed the curtains and duvet over 10 years ago when my daughter was a baby and she's 11 now and begging for a change.
So for her 11th birthday I'm gonna make it happen. She wants the toile out. She wants lavender and blue in and the room to function a lot better since her room is on the small side.
I totally got this.
The Plan:
Whenever approaching a room to decorate you need to start with a full plan and budget before you begin.
Like they say "If you fail to plan then plan to fail".
To improve function of the space:
