One Room Challenge: Week 2
I’ve still been rounding up items for the room, and the drapery fabric has arrived. Unfortunately, I don’t have too much eye candy to share today. Admittedly, aside from the linen drapes I have planned and a secret DIY project I have in mind, the room mostly needs some fluffing in the form of pillows, accessories, artwork, etc. My number 1 go-to place for that stuff is always Home Goods. As luck would have it, though, on my trip last week I found 5 perfect pieces for my house – yet none of them are for this space! Of course, I still bought them, but my hunt for the One Room Challenge continues.

In the meantime, I had a little fun whipping up a cool reversible fabric basket I may use for my etagere. I may prefer a more understated fabric for the final design, though. This project looks a bit more intimidating than it really is, and I was able to get this finished in under an hour. A quick search on Pinterest led me to quite a few tutorials, but I chose one that seemed to provide the best ‘slouchy, yet structured’ result. I just altered a few of the steps to make it easier. I linked to that tutorial on my ORC Pinterest Board.
Let me know if you guys might be interested in a tutorial…

sounds like good progress! Why do I always leave HomeGoods with stuff not at all on my list….I think it’s a conspiracy. xoxo
Definitely interested in tutorial. I have so much to read during these weeks I never comment and I think a lot of people feel that way but you should definitely do. Lve your look
This is looking great. I love your color scheme.
Love the HGs chair you found and the fabric basket you whipped up. I wish I could whip things up on my sewing machine…I find it takes me forever.
Good luck this week!
Turorial, pease. And put a link in your final ORC post–that one, apparently, is the most viewed.
The tutorial is coming right up! I’ll be sure to link to it in my final reveal, too. Thanks for the tip!
Get that etagere in my house now. And that slouchy basket – who does that in an hour?! You do. Bam.
Haha! This etagere is one of my best thrift store finds ever! The basket looks much more intimidating than it is. I’ll have a tutorial posted soon you can get one done in an hour, too. Bam.
