One Room Challenge Week 5 :: It’s All Coming Together

10/31/18

We’re in the home stretch folks! We made it to week 5 and have one short week left before the big reveal – ahhh! If you’re just joining be sure to check out our previous weeks and how we got to where we are today.

Week 1 :: Week 2 :: Week 3 :: Week 4

I don’t want to give too much away but I’ll share some fun stuff that got completed over this past week! We had a little but if a hiccup when our chandelier for the family room arrived broken.

Luckily Lamps Plus was amazing and got another one sent out right away. Dan and his dad got it hung up just in time for Hawk’s first bday party and it totally made the room feel so much more complete!

We went with the Euroface Rado 12 light Chandelier and I couldn’t love it more. I’m not usually a chandelier type person but the black and brass and sleek modern look of this one sold me as soon as I saw it.

We also figured out what to do with the space to the right of the fireplace…we built a floating firewood rack! I was inpsired by a photo on Pinterest and Dan helped me whip one up with some 2x2s.

All I need to do now is find some wood to fill it up! I’m thinking birch since it’s a little more light weight. I’ll be sharing a tutorial for this soon – it was super easy.

The major piece that got completed is our custom TV entertainment center that Baird Brothers helped us with. This thing is a BEAST. But it’s amazing and I’m seriously obsessed.

I don’t want to give it all away yet, but here’s a little sneak peek:

DIY Entertainment stand with sliding barn doors

How good is that brass hardware from Emtek?! It totally makes the piece. I went with these pulls on top of these plates. They’re so beautiful and exactly what I was envisioning for this guy.

The last piece in the family room I haven’t talked about much is our coffee table. My girl Denise from Eclectic Goods had her carpenter build me this sweet table that arrived last week.

I’m just trying to figure out what stain to use. There are so many dark wood pieces in this space already I’m thinking about keeping it a lot lighter. Maybe even raw and just seal it up with a clear coat.

This is the base:

And this is the top:

I can’t wait to get it in the house!

Into the dining room side of the room, we haven’t done too much else in here since last week. My parents are visiting and my mom is sewing me the cushion for the floating bench in the window.

Our chairs will be arriving this week – FINALLY! I’ll keep that a surprise 😉

I also bought this rug for under the table:

Annnd the last DIY build that we are finishing up in the next couple of days is a wine rack that will be going in this little corner:

It feels so good to be in the home stretch but I’m also super stressing about getting everything done in time! I’ve got lots of accessories ready to go so when it’s time to decorate I can jump right in.

I can’t wait to share this space with you guys next week!! It’s going to be such a huge transformation from how these rooms looked before! Wish me luck and hopefully we pull this off!

As always, be sure to check in on all the other featured designers progress this week!

    I love the firewood holder! Sadly no fireplace in our house. And I think the unfinished wood of the coffee table is beautiful and a lovely contrast to all the darker woods.

    I am in LOVE with that simple firewood rack. I am trying to think of a place to put one in my house! I don’t think I’ve said it yet, but wanted to tell you I am happy I found your blog via the ORC. I find myself checking back daily and am really enjoying everything you guys are working on!

We spent a few days this past week at the @thedwel We spent a few days this past week at the @thedwellbox in Amish Country and never wanted to leave! More and more lately we’re realizing the importance of family and nurturing those relationships. This was the perfect place to unwind, reconnect and enjoy an adventure together without worrying about capturing it all on our phones. We went for a hike, sat by the fire, ate wayyy too many pastries and cheeses and loved every minute of it. Sharing a video tour in stories today! If you’re in the area - we highly recommend a stay here!
FREE 2021 Printable Calendar is on the blog today! FREE 2021 Printable Calendar is on the blog today! As always, there’s two sizes for you to choose from and a short easy tutorial for you to follow to make the cute little wooden stand too 📅  My little office nook has gone through a lot of phases since we first moved in 4.5 years ago (swipe through to see them all!) and last year I finally upgraded my desk to one I could properly sit at 🤣 I took two Alex drawers from IKEA and added wood trim and caning for an elevated look and topped it off with a faux butcher block counter made from a $30 door slab. 👊🏻 the cherry on top for this space was our new skylight that instantly brightened it up and brings in so much beautiful natural light ☀️ this nook never felt quite right until now and I’m excited to spend more time here this year working on lots of exciting projects!

Oh 2020. While it wasn’t what any of us expected Oh 2020. While it wasn’t what any of us expected I’m focusing on all the good that came out of it. I remember sitting with Dan New Year’s Eve last year and being so hopeful for what our future held and praying it would bring us another baby after we had been trying with no luck. I found out only a couple weeks later I was pregnant and that joy carried us through the year even though it brought fear and worry along with it. Besides welcoming our sweet baby girl into our lives we experienced so many other amazing things. The time we got to spend as a family is something we’ll always cherish. We worked on so many projects together and continued to pour our hearts into making this house a place we can call home. And we built A LOT of arches 🤣 Eloise was on the cover of a magazine, Hawk’s hair grew back in full force, we beat Covid and captain Christmas reminded us what the holiday season is really about.  but most importantly we leaned into god and relied on him more than ever to get us through each day. That’s the relationship I want to continue to work on and I’m grateful that this year nudged me closer to the One who deserves all the glory and continues to be faithful 🙏🏻 happy new year friends 🤍 cheers to 2021 🍾
