Hi friend! Thanks for checking back in on our One Room Challenge progress! We made it through Week 4, WOW, half way there! Progress this week was slower than I anticipated, however we’ve had a lot of the back to school germs going through our house which has slowed me down a lot! We also have some wood delays. Our wood is from a local mill and it needs to dry before proceeding, so I may need to make some serious alterations to our plans, but for now, let’s celebrate what WE DID DO, keep reading below!

Let’s talk about what the One Room Challenge is. Have you heard of it? It’s a biannual event that is held every spring and fall. Anyone with a blog or Instagram account is welcome to join the fun. It goes over 8 weeks and each week we share an Instagram or Blog post with an update on on our room. It’s a fun way to connect with other like minded people and be able to encourage each other through all the ups and downs of renovating! You can check out all the other participants HERE.
