This post is going to be short and sweet because it's...
and I've still got a long to-do list that's making me totally stressed out a tad anxious.
Since I was out of town for the weekend celebrating my awesome dad's birthday I'm
feeling extra crunched this week, but I'm so excited at the thought of my room
being finished and being able to enjoy it in one week!
I did finish my hack of the Ikea Rast chests - stop by tomorrow for the reveal and tutorial.
Here's a peek for you, let's just say I'm a happy hacker. :)
My window shades arrived! Yay!
I'm making a simple tailored bed skirt using this Nate Berkus fabric (Patras - Chamomile) and
although I'm sewing mine, I'm counting on this super easy tutorial to have it finished in no
time! Thanks cute friend, it's perfect for crunch time!
I did some shopping, still testing out some lamps. :)
My chair was on the list for painting today, but mother nature wasn't
cooperating at 35 degrees, fingers crossed for tomorrow!
This week I'm working on:
making pillows
artwork projects
bedding, and accessories
the chair - paint and re-upholster
hang the headboard, mirrors, window treatments
paint the trim
wash the windows
eeeek!
Good thing it's Halloween because my house is frightening,
a scary mess of projects and supplies all over!
Thank you all so much for stopping by every week, I couldn't do it without
your support and encouraging comments, they truly keep me motivated!

Oh my oh my!! The Ikea Rast tease looks so phenomenal, I can't wait to see them tomorrow! And the bedskirt fabric - love. (and thanks for the shout out :) ) I am so excited for this room reveal next week!!!
I am totally sweating it out with you. That Ikea hack is looking fantastic. Can't wait to see what you did and how. I guess I won't complain about 44 degrees, but it is too cold to spray paint so I am not happy.
This sneak peak is killing me. I know you've got a Pinterest hit on your hand before even seeing the complete dresser.
I just made a tailored bedskirt as well but mine is attached to the box spring. Will share next week.
But I really can't wait to see that Rast ;)
show us your chest! ha ha. ;) sorry- i am so overtired and needed a lame laugh. but i want to see that hack, seriously!
Can't wait for the reveal and what pretty fall color outside.
Um, yeah, pretty sure that chest is fabulous. You're just a tad bit mean for making us wait 'til tomorrow. ;)
Your house sounds like mine. The Ikea hack looks amazing and I love the Berkus fabric you chose.
I love your DIY bedskirt. Its making me want to do one of my own. This is all so pretty, I can't wait to see next week.
Can't wait to see the Ikea job!
That's a long list Pam!! But, I know you can do it!! Can't wait to see the finished product :)
The Ikea hack? Gorgeous!! And I think this is one of the major reasons I don't like winter. Serious halt to my spray painting addiction! xo
It's in the 60s and 70s here in DC and a gorgeous fall. I can't wait to see the details on your Ikea hack. Everything is looking great.
The room is going to be gorgeous! I just remembered that I was going to make a bedskirt too. Oops!
I can tell already that the ikea dresser is fabulous!!
Cant wait to see the whole room done!
