Fall 2022 One Room Challenge – Week Five

October 27, 2022

It’s Week 5 and I’m posting for the first time since Week 1. WHOOPS.

Kids, man. That’s my excuse. Between stomach viruses and biting issues I’m not sure we’ve gone a full week this month with all 3 kids in daycare. Could this week be the one? MAYBE! But I’ve also been exhausted this week and have gotten zero done.

Since my last post, we decided to keep the navy walls and just freshen them up with a new coat of paint. We’ve also decided to bring in some bright colors in other ways and scratch the beams (at least for now). This weekend we’ll be working on patching the wall where the old closet was and figuring out how we want to build our closet doors.

Here’s a tiny glimpse of a few of my favorite elements so far:

And here’s how our list is looking:

-Patch subfloor where closet was removed
-Finish installing new floors – In Progress
-Remove old sconces
-Patch drywall where necessary – In Progress
-Paint walls – In Progress
-Build faux beams
-Stain faux beams
-Install faux beams
-Install Pax wardrobes

-Build upper cabinets for above wardrobes
-Paint upper cabinets
-Install upper cabinets
-Build wardrobe doors
-Paint wardrobe doors
-Install wardrobe doors
-Buy light fixture
-Install light fixture
-New bed
-Install sconces
-Buy rug

-Trim out bedroom doors
-Paint bedroom doors
-Decorate
-If there’s time, build/paint/install bathroom doors
-Color project

I still think we can get it all done but our time has been limited so I’m hoping that changes for these last few weeks. Be sure to check out everyone else’s updated here.
