One Room Challenge Reveal

I have had so much fun changing my formal navy dining room into a cheerful pink one during Calling It Home's One Room Challenge!

I used all my old furniture except the table and managed to replace it for $25.00. I also purchased an indoor/outdoor rug for $49.00 which is perfect since the dining room gets lots of traffic.

The window treatments, panels and roman shade were $30.00 per window. Another 75.00 for fabric for the chairs and stool. The wallpaper for the screen was 45.00.

Paint ate up most of my budget at 150.00. I did paint the room, chairs, and chandelier.

Most of the accessories came from my favorite store, Goodwill. 

So I managed to totally change my room for about $400.00.

I'm tickled pink with the results, enjoy!
































Live Well Without Breaking The Bank!

One Room Challenge Week Five


So here we are at the final week of Calling It Home's One Room Challenge!

This week I was supposed to be finishing remaking my chandelier, I'm almost done I'm glad to report.




A few more strokes of the brush and it will be gold. The lampshades are easy, I'll finish them in
a matter of minutes.

I got a little side tracked because I had second thoughts about my white curtains.




So, they turned to green and I am so much happier.






This final week I'll be working on the bar, buffet, and two tables doing a little fluffing, also picking out some pillows and deciding if my mirrors flanking the fireplace should be framed in white or gold!

I'm thrilled with my bright, cheery, casual, dining room!

                                                           Cheers,
