Somehow five weeks have flown by in the One Room Challenge. The boys’ room is coming together but there is still so so much to do.
If you need to catch up before we move on you can visit the other posts in this series here:
I am fully aware that everything on my list will probably not be finished by next week so I’ll have to be fine with putting the room together with what I have and finding and finishing more elements along the way.
This week I hung the fruit crate bookshelves I made last week. You may have guessed what they were from the peek I gave in last week’s post.
The bookshelf I ordered from Urban Outfitters also came in and after my husband put it together I took it up and loaded it down with some plants and the outdoors themed books I inherited.
Lastly, the antlers are hung. They didn’t come with matching brass hardware so I need to use my new favorite spray paint (I’ll share later!) to touch up the screws so they match.
Before next Thursday I hope to:
- clean and hang (possibly paint) 2 cuckoo clocks
- make a frame for and hang a large topographic wall map
- make a rug for under O’s crib
- spray paint ceiling fixture base antique brass (the light I wanted can’t be found anymore)
- replace yucky brass doorknobs with new bronze ones
This is seriously such a cute room. It should be in the Urban Outfitters catalog.
Looks great! Love the little details.
Give yourself a break, it takes a lot to keep a home, be a wife/mother and upkeep on a blog. Their room looks fantastic already. Where did you get the fruit crates with labels still on them? Love those and putting jute rope across was genius for keeping items in the crates on wall. Look forward to next projects and how they blend in the room. I agree, it should be in Urban Outfitters catalog. Happy Halloween and weekend
Looking great! Love the pillows on the bed and the crates are awesome!
Love how it's coming together! Clever idea with the crates. Can't wait to see the reveal!
This room is great! Love how it is coming together…..
Thanks Kate!
