DIY Laundry Rack / Fuse Box Cover
When I started redecorating the laundry room for the Fall 2016 One Room Challenge, I knew I wanted to cover the fuse box up in a way that would leave it accessible when we need it, but I wasn’t exactly sure how to do it.
The Monochrome Laundry Room | One Room Challenge Final Reveal
What was once a bright screaming red laundry/mud room became a calm, monochromatic space that welcomed us each time we arrived home.
DIY Medal + Trophy Display Shelf
Do you have an abundance of sports medals hiding in a drawer or closet? Almost every 5k road race these days hands out a medal to finishers. Kids’ sports teams are often given trophies or medals at the end of the season. Whether earned running, swimming, biking, or kicking, this project is the perfect solution for displaying all those medals in a place of honor.
New Coffee Table from Old Window
You might remember that I mentioned this table in the reveal of our Den Redesign project back in June, and I’m excited to finally share the coffee table I* made from an old window.
One Room Challenge: Week 6
Wow! Week 6 is here! This One Room Challenge has been just that – a challenge. And it’s been very rewarding. I’m working at my new desk in my (not quite but almost finished) completely new office/sewing room, and I love it!
As I predicted in Week 1 and mentioned above, the room is not totally finished. I’m truly OK with that, though. It’s 400 times better than it was six weeks ago when this crazy challenge began, and there’s no way we would have made the changes that have been made in that amount of time without the timeline that the One Room Challenge provided, and I must thank Linda for that. Thank you, Linda!
DIY Doll Clothes Rack
Our good friends’ little girl turned five this year. Instead of a having birthday party, they celebrated with a trip to the American Girl store. She thoroughly enjoyed her visit there, which included a tea party with her new doll.
Since there was no party this year – and therefore no cake to be baked by yours truly – I decided that I would make a gift related to her doll. I searched for ideas on Pinterest, and of course I found an overwhelming number of options that made me wish I was 8 again and in the prime of my doll enjoyment years. The idea that I liked best and thought would be quite useful for corralling all the doll’s shoes, brushes, and clothing was a portable clothes rack.
