One Room Challenge™ Guest Participants, Week 6

There is so much talent in these rooms, please take the time to visit and share your comments with them.

I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am for today! What could possibly be better than seeing yesterday's room transformations? How about over 200++ more rooms!

There is so much talent in these rooms, please take the time to visit and share your comments with them. If you participated, I hope you had a great time. If you did not jump in this round, you may want to consider taking the challenge in the spring.

The ORC is an event where everyone is a winner! I will be talking more about this at the Design Bloggers Conference in Beverly Hills. I am really excited to share with you what I have learned along this eventful and visually stunning road. I hope I'll see you there. It's going to be so much fun.

And now, The Rules:

1. Only link up rooms dedicated to the One Room Challenge. The purpose of this event is to support one another in finishing a room. 

2. Your post should include information about your space and a link back to the ORC link-up page so the readers can easily navigate through the other rooms. 

3. Please be respectful of this interior design event and only have links that relate to your One Room Challenge space. Guiding the viewers away from this event is not in the spirit of the ORC and won't be permitted.

Well this is it! Here we are at the final week of the One Room Challenge. What started out as a fun idea, has grown into a biannual event viewed by millions...

MEDIA PARTNER

Well this is it! Here we are at the final week of the One Room Challenge. What started out as a fun idea, has grown into a biannual event viewed by millions....over 3 million (not including the additional event coverage from House Beautiful, ORC's official Media Sponsor and all the other additional coverage)! The One Room Challenge™ is a brand and a business constantly evolving.

With my small team, I work passionately behind the scenes, rarely discussing the process of coordinating and executing all the moving parts. Between the designers, the sponsors, and the guest participants, there are a lot of pieces that make up the exciting puzzle called the ORC. 

Sound interesting? Want to know more? Gosh, I hope so, because I will be sharing lots at the Design Bloggers Conference in Beverly Hills! I am really excited to share with you what I have learned along this eventful and visually stunning road. I hope I'll see you there. It's going to be so much fun.

And now, thank you to these amazing designers who have brought it BIG for you. Remember, in this event, everyone is a winner. Let's go see their rooms.....

One Room Challenge™ Guest Participants, Week 5

Ok, you need to listen to me. We are at week 5....week 5! Some people like to think (and I let them) that I sit back and watch all of this unfold. NOT. SO.

Ok, you need to listen to me. We are at week 5....week 5! Some people like to think (and I let them) that I sit back and watch all of this unfold. NOT. SO. Behind the scenes, I give lots of advice, tips and strategies to be successful at the One Room Challenge™. Let me give you the most important piece of advice.....

It's all about the pictures!

I wish it wasn't that way, but it is. Get over it. Snap out of it. And show up! Show up next week with the best photos you have ever had on your site. We all know someone with a fancy camera and some photo-enhancing skills. Maybe it's you? If not, get that person to help you. 

Why?

I'm so glad you asked :). Because in this visually stimulating world of ours, you only have one chance to make that lasting impression. Believe me when I tell you that thousands of people will be coming by to see your final reveals. Some of them will be in the position to feature your room. 

You got this!
