One Room Challenge - Week 4

So here we are at Week 4 of the One Room Challenge. And I think I can get my room together in the next two weeks. Most of the bigger projects are out of the way. To follow my room from week one, click here. To check out the other link participants and their rooms, click here.

My biggest accomplishment this week was painting the dressers. I haven't moved them back into the room yet because I want to wait a full 48 hours before setting anything on top of them. Lesson learned on previous painted pieces!

I decided to do a two tone look similar to my inspiration photo.

I already have a painted dressing table in the room in Behr Quiet Moment. For the dressers, I decided to go with the same color but with 25% white. I am anxious to get them back in the room to see how everything is coming together.

My kids always want to help paint. This is how I kept Clyde entertained while I painted. It worked! 

They look really white in these pictures. They definitely have a blue tint.

To recap, here is my to-do list....
1. Sew new bed skirt. I already have fabric for this project...yay!   (This may need some more mending. My mother-in-law had a great idea on how to repair the corner pleat and so I am going to try to fix it when I get to another sewing project for the room. )
2. Create gallery wall around the television. (This is almost complete. I have to cut some mat board for one of the pictures I am using. I am too cheap to pay for a custom mat!)
3. New pillow for the white chair.
4. New fabric on the dressing table stool.
5. New pillow for the bed.
6. New accessorizing.

Here were my maybes...
1. Paint the dressers. 
2. Add trim to the existing curtains.
3. New bedspread. My sister and I crouched around her attic and found the bedspread! Woohoo! 

Said attic with very low ceiling height and not the best lighting. I am spoiled by mine. 

 4. Rug. Would love a new rug but that probably isn't happening. :)

And I have done some things not on the list, like paint the frames on the existing botanicals and new artwork for over the bed!

I am excited about my progress, can't wait to finish everything up!
