One Room Challenge Spring 2019 - Week 6 - It's REVEAL Day!
Oh wow! This season has been quite the challenge! After doing the ORC six times before, I can honestly say that this one pushed me to the limit. The fact that I was chosen as one of the 20 featured designers by Better Homes And Gardens, our media partner, added a tiny bit more pressure, but it was such an honor, and I feel so blessed. It is always fun to see just how much can be accomplished in such a short period. The six weeks went by so fast, and yet so slow. Haha. I was r

One Room Challenge Spring 2019 - Week 5 - Count Down To The Finish Line
I get asked all the time how I get so much done. And honestly, I don't know the answer to that question other than I get up everyday ready to work, and just do what needs to be done. There is a certain energy I get from being a busy, working designer, and it fuels my passion and purpose. I consider myself blessed to wake up everyday doing what I love This week pushed the boundaries for me in a big way though. On top of my One Room Challenge master bedroom, I am also doing my

One Room Challenge Spring 2019 - Week 4 - It's Crunch Time
Oh boy! Nervous! Excited! Panicked! Ecstatic! Ready? Nope! This is the crazy part of the One Room Challenge, when on week 4 technically instead of two more weeks to complete your space, you really only have days, since it has to be completed and photographed; giving your photographer enough time to do post-shoot edits. It's nothing new to me. After doing the One Room Challenge six times already, I know the drill. But that still never prepares me for crunch time. It is always

One Room Challenge Spring 2019 - Week 3 - It's Nail-Biting Time
You'd think that after doing the One Room Challenge six times already, I would no longer stress when it gets to week three. But nooooo! I stress. EVERY. TIME! Haha. Somehow I always manage to pull it off, and I am praying that this time will be no different - although I did bite off a bit more than I usually do this time around. I keep reminding myself that Better Homes and Gardens, our media partner, chose me for a reason. I will make them (and you guys of course) very proud

One Room Challenge - Spring 2019 - Week 2 - It Takes A Village
Welcome back to the chaos that is my life. Haha. It really isn't chaos if you are having fun! We are already knee deep in the makeover of my master bedroom, and if you missed last week's post, check it out HERE I am actually away at High Point Market, and started this post just before I left on Saturday. I proof read a bit, but I am certain there are some typos, so bear with me. :-) Today's post is all about my amazing sponsors. I am in awe of the generosity of these kind fol

One Room Challenge - Spring 2019 -Week 1 - The Shocking Before
How exciting to be among the talented group of designers for this season's edition of the One Room Challenge! I just about hit the floor with excitement when it was announced by media partner, Better Homes and Gardens and Linda Weinstein herself last Fall, that I am one of the featured designers. Below is my powder room that I completed for last Fall's season as a guest participant. This was my sixth time completing the challenge as a guest participant, and so I am calling th

The Best Seat In The House - A Powder Room Tour
The small powder room was completed for The One Room Challenge, which is a decorating challenge for designers and decorating enthusiasts. It was one of the last rooms in my home to get a makeover. Just like every other vanilla space in this builder basic home I bought back in March, I have been slowly adding some really custom and luxurious touches to make it my own. Here is what it looked like before As you can see, nothing special. I did love the window in there and I later
