Well, week 1 sure flew by in a hurry. Here we are in Week 2 of The One Room Challenge. I spent most of this week devising a plan of attack. If you didn’t get a chance to take a look at my mood board and the before photos of the front room, swing back to week 1 to have a look.
If you are just joining in, I’m participating in a design challenge ‘The One Room Challenge‘, where you transform a space in just 6-weeks. Visit their site to learn more.

Choosing Paint Colors

I am very excited to partner with Sherwin-Williams to help transform this space. I gathered a bunch of samples that caught my eye, to try in the front room. There is so much natural light I didn’t want something that would get washed out.

Thank goodness we’re not the only ones busy planning, hunting and gathering and going a bit slower than anticipated at this point. Now we’ve been slowed down by the weather. i didn’t think it was going to rain over night so am waiting for things to dry out to paint. Tomorrow is another day and this week is another week, right?

Cheers,
