It has been 8 weeks since the beginning of the amazing One Room Challenge!
When I signed up for the ORC, we knew we would eventually be selling our house. What I didn’t plan for was that COVID-19 would hit, life as we knew it would be shutdown, and the ORC would be delayed.
By the time we were able to start the One Room Challenge, we were for sure selling our house, so I needed a plan for a room that could appeal to the masses while also fitting in with the rest of our home.
So, here is what our Master Bedroom looks like now!
In case you forgot what it previously looked like, it was a sea of orange wood and brown tones.
So what did it all take to complete this transformation?
We started by painting the walls Sherwin Williams Repose Gray. It is a great color since it is a greige and can lean gray or beige. We also painted the ceiling white using Sherwin William CHB paint to hide any imperfections.
We added an accent wall by using NuWallpaper Loft Brick Peel & Stick Wallpaper from Amazon.
It was my first time ever hanging any form of wallpaper and it was surprisingly easy!
The old boob light needed to go, so we found a cost effective option from Wayfair.
The floor was the biggest change in the room. We went from brown bubbled carpet to a beautiful chevron pattern floor. The floor is Mannington Restoration Collection floor in the color Stone. With the help of my hubby, we were able to lay the floor ourselves and save quite a bit of money.
After the floors were in, we were able to put down a beautiful new rug from Rugs USA.
Then it was onto the pretty things. Since in person shopping was limited, I ordered my bedding from Wayfair, Target, and Amazon.
I found great black metal brackets on Amazon and added a piece of stained wood to create a shelf. It was styled completely from things I already owned.
I also created a little reading nook for me (or a spot for my husband to put on his socks). I love this chair from Walmart!
It is crazy to me how much bigger, brighter, and cleaner the room seems!
I’m a little sad that we waited until we were moving to do this project!
We decided to show our house last weekend and within 48 hours had 6 offers at or above our asking price. Im positive this space had something to do with it!
I just can’t get over how it turned out!
Thanks for following along on this journey! Don’t forget to check out the other designers on the ORC!
