Alright week 4 is here and the mudding is (dare I say) almost finished in both of our daughters soon to be bedrooms. Andrew received an email that his Home Depot order is ready for pick up tomorrow (hello primer and trim and lots of mundane yet necessary things) and I borrowed my Dad's pick up trip and ventured into "the city" to pick up a wardrobe for Isla's room, a deposit on luxury vinyl plank flooring for both rooms and pool chlorine. When I got home I was totally exhausted and I didn't know why until it dawned on me that I'm not used to people, I'm not used to driving on the highway (especially in an XL pick up truck) and wow how is life going to feel when we are finally back out of lockdown.
So rather then share more mudding-in-progress photos I am going to instead share 6 nightstand and bed combos we considered for Isla and Alice's rooms.

I design interiors (kitchens, baths, coffee shops, vacation rentals) & brands (brand development, websites, e-commerce, social). And I share pictures and words here.
The One Room Challenge is hosted by Linda and Better Homes and Gardens is the media sponsor. It happens twice a year and I love participating because it forces me to completely finish a space right down to the styling details. I also love connecting with the interior design community.

- Prime and Paint / Wallpaper
- Replace lighting
- Add furniture, textiles, art and accessories
- Do it all again in the second bedroom
Reading week 4 of one room challenge 6 bed reminded me of my student life when managing everything in a small shared space along with studies felt really overwhelming. I also went through a phase where assignments and term papers piled up and deadlines constantly created stress. During that time I came across the idea of a term paper writing service which felt quite helpful when the workload became too heavy to handle alone. The assignment help type of support can sometimes really make things easier for students when everything starts feeling too much at once. Experiences like these taught me how important it is to balance time and seek the right kind of academic support when needed.
ReplyDeleteWow, sounds like a busy week! I can totally relate to feeling exhausted after being out and about again. Picking out furniture is so tough. Those bed and nightstand combos must have been a challenge to narrow down. It reminds me of choosing characters in a racing game, like trying to find the perfect balance between style and stats among all the speed stars . Can't wait to see what you finally went with!
