What is the One Room Challenge, aka ORC?
Hmm ... I'll just copy and paste their mission statement :)
"The One Room challenge™ will provide participants with a supportive, enthusiastic forum in which to share the process of transforming a room. The ORC is not a competition, but rather a celebration of creativity, inspiration, and original ideas."
How did I get involved?
It was completely coincidence and being in the right situation at the right time. We were fresh into quarantine and I needed something to keep my brain and body busy while stuck at home. It wasn't difficult to convince my husband. As much as he wanted this room updated also, he saw the desperation in my eyes, being new to homeschooling an almost 3 and 6 year old. Not sure that this project kept us sane, necessarily, but it sure did keep us busy!! You can read along my weekly updates to avoid any fomo.
How we got here:
week one | week two | week three | week 4 | week 5 canceled. black lives matter! | week 6 | orc blog
It is officially done. Well, almost. Minor fixes need to be completed, but we are waiting on parts. We had some difficulty getting the polished nicked p-trap for the sink (of course that is coming tomorrow, after these photos are posted). Still need to order a brass toilet lever, just because we can. And I will refrain from sharing how that beach towel (which is a whole blog post in itself) is hanging on that wall, but it's not "installed" properly yet.
OMG I love it!! That light fixture, that tile... so special! Great job!!
