ORC - craigslist bedroom details


I can't thank you all enough for all of your kind words about our One Room Challenge
Craigslist Bedroom Makeover, it was such a fun project and your enthusiasm and
 wonderful comments are truly icing on the cake! 
We set out to create a beautiful room on a budget and are happy to share our
sources. We splurged on a couple special items, but of course, were completely
 justified because of the money we saved on so many Craigslist scores at great prices. 


Headboard
Our first purchase was the upholstered headboard from Walmart.
Better Homes and Gardens Grayson Headboard
4 1/2 Stars and 637 Reviews
$149 - Free Shipping AND Returns (including Pick Up from your home)
I can't tell you how impressed we are with the quality and service, we debated on
 colors and ended up ordering both so we had first hand experience with the
hassle free return process.

Drapery Panels
Ikea Ritva Panels - $25/pair
By far my favorite draperies for the price, if you'd like more ideas I did a post about
 them here. I always sew a pleat in the top to give them a more professional look.
We sprayed Ikea clips and rings gold.

Bedding 
White Comforter and Shams - Hotel Collection - Homegoods
Bedskirt - Home Classic - Kohl's
Threshold Organic Blanket - Clownfish Orange -  Target
Ivory Faux Fur Throw - Client owned - World Market
(we customized by adding Greek Key trim from Hobby Lobby)


Fabric
Square Pillows - Thom Filicia - Citysquare - Terratone
Lumbar - Braemore - Journey Ikat - Fruity
Upholstery on X Benches - Sabu Dove Gray


Accessories
Lamps - Homegoods
White Pierced Ginger Jars & Vases - Homegoods & Thrifted
Sunburst Mirror - Martha Stewart - Home Depot
Art - Homegoods

 


Craigslist Finds
Campaign Chests - Nightstands - $60
Wisteria X Benches - $150
Ceiling Pendant - $175
Media Cabinet - $275
Ornate Gold Mirror - $125

Paint Colors
Walls & Ceiling - Benjamin Moore - Simply White
Trim - Benjamin Moore - Marscapone
Media Cabinet - Annie Sloan Chalk Paint - Pure White  

  That's it until the next One Room Challenge  - mark your calendars, friends!

perfectly playful...pom poms


There's no denying a pom pom detail delivers up a good dose of whimsy!
The unexpected use of it in the sophisticated rooms below took me by surprise.
Adding trim would be an easy diy - as simple as grabbing your glue gun or sewing machine. 
I'm still loving the ikat pillow I made to give my room some pizazz!

one room challenge...week five


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!

xoxo, pam    

Be sure to check out what my friends have been up to this week and don't forget to 
stop by Linda's on Thursday to see the progress all the others have made:

one room challenge...week 5


I'm dying to see every one's progress this week, the deadline is closing in on us
and I have the feeling this group is best under pressure. 
Woo hoo! Two out of three diys were a success over here this week.
My idea to add a little pizazz to the Urban Outfitter's tiered pendant is making up for
 my Roman shade that's been less than cooperative and is getting re-worked. 


Remember the before from last week...prettier, don't you think? 
Tutorial to come later in the week, it's easy I promise!  


My favorite is the warm ambient glow it casts. 
I'm happy with the valance, and that I took time to be sure the pattern matched,
if you take a photo straight on like the one below you can tell...you noticed, right?
Those folds are giving me fits and are pinned up at this point, after ripping out all of
the stitching and starting over. If I'd stop standing around admiring the light I could have
 had it finished by now. :) 



This week I'll be working on getting my accessories together, and figuring out
how to deal with the shade...ugh!
 You'll never guess my accent colors...pink and blue...trust me!!
Ha, how's that for leaving you in suspense?

If you'd like to catch up with past weeks
Week 1 - Before & The Plan
Week 2 - Painting Stripes
Week 4 - Lighting

Have fun checking in on the rest of the projects!
