    Week 5 One Room Challenge Sofaless livingroom

      Welcome back!  If you are just joining us for the One Room Challenge, you can check out our plans here. So far we have painted, and had new hardwood floors installed so the hard parts should be over.  Now on to the fun.  Two of my design inspirations for this room were this map from Conquest Maps and this rug from Ruggable.     Since this map and rug are our inspiration, we ordered them a while ago.  It seems sometime between then and now, Ruggable has discontinued this specific rug.  However, they have lots of other nice rugs, and I am really happy I purchased this one early!…

    Week 4 – One Room Challenge – Sofaless livingroom

      Welcome back!  If you are just joining us for the One Room Challenge, you can check out our plans here. You can also check out Painting Week here.  This week was all about the flooring, and since we hired that out, I shopped for new lighting. We have wanted to remove some of our carpet and replace with hardwood for a few years now.  However, all of our halls had original hardwood, so we wanted it to be seamless and whenever we looked into it, we did not get a good feeling it would come out as seamless as we had hoped.  We finally found a company, Park Place…

    ORC – sofaless living space – Fresh Paint – Week 3

      Welcome back!  If you are just joining us for the One Room Challenge, you can check out our plans here.  This week was painting week for us and unlike when I did the One Room Challenge for my dining room, the paint came out as I planned the first time this time. Luckily with this room, there was no damage to the walls, no peeling tape, and nothing to patch other than a few tiny holes where pictures had been. The paint color choice was also simple this time.  When I finished our dining room there was a little issue with the ceiling paint color choice, and since I…

I went to visit mom again. As many of you know I o I went to visit mom again. As many of you know I often come home from Mom’s house with a really cool item and, in many cases, an even cooler story to go with it.  This little bell was from a old one-room schoolhouse. The teacher used to ring this bell to let kids know it was time to come in from recess. My uncle, in his elementary-school-aged wisdom decided with no bell recess would never end so he “acquired” the bell. I miss you Uncle Bunt. Thanks Mom, for the bell, and the  story!❣️❣️#oneroomschool #vintagedecor #schoolbell #myvintagefinds #momshouse #lovemyhome #lovemyhomedecor
