WEEK TWO: FALL ONE ROOM CHALLENGE

For week two of the One Room Challenge , a lot of my progress has been reaching out to potential sponsors to help bring my tween room makeover to life. Plus, measuring the room to begin the floor plan for the new layout. It’s also been a lot of conversations with my client, um hmm—daughter, about how the new room needs to be laid out, which requires her to sell or donate pieces to make room for the new. There are two areas in the room that really need some creative TLC, and I would love your feedback and thoughts on these two ideas.

My first is her room has two closet doors, which are great for storage, but they swing open and eat up floor space. I’m debating if I should keep them or remove them altogether. I love this idea from interior designer Emma Gurner and how it looks like a theatre curtain. What do you think?

Secondly, the ceiling needs a lot of TLC. It has an uneven surface, and even if I put in a new light fixture and add wallpaper, it’s still an eyesore. I was considering tin ceiling tiles since they fit the baroque style I’m going for in the room, and it’ll be a subtle pattern on the ceiling.

Let me know your thoughts and votes. Next week, I’ll have the new floor plan done for the room, and my daughter reluctantly will have to purge items to make room for the new.
