Welcome back to week 2 of the One Room Challenge™. Did you manage to go through all twenty of the designers, last week? I have to say, I am super excited to see these spaces come together. You may find this an interesting fact; unless they happen to tell me, I have no idea which room each designer will be transforming. I don't even know if they will be selecting any gorgeous products for their spaces from these generous sponsors: 

All Modern | ArtStar | Bassett Mirror | Bellacor | Arianna Belle | Crystorama Lighting | DecoratorsBest |Farrow & Ball | Joss & Main | Karastan Carpet | Lamps Plus | Lazzaro Leather | Lowes | Lucent LightshopMinted

House Beautiful has declared their Top 3 Trends (so far) from the One Room Challenge™. I don't want to spoil the surprise for you, so all I will say is YES, it's a color in my book. Here's the reminder of the participants......

....and here's how to go see what they have done this week.

Sorry to be a pain (more than usual), but if you are receiving double emails from me, could you please let me know. Trust me, I'm horrified at the thought of this as much as you are. #namaste

One Room Challenge™ Guest Participation

I have been trying to stay off this site while the tech-ies send me emails, confuse the heck out of me, and make random, experimental, changes. Some of you have sent me emails with alerts about nonfunctioning issues and I can't thank you enough! You always come through for me. I promise, by the time the One Room Challenge is over, this site will be complete. 

And now, Let's talk about ORC Guest Participation! 

Note to self; renovating your site before the One Room Challenge™... is a really bad idea. 

I have been trying to stay off this site while the tech-ies send me emails, confuse the heck out of me, and make random, experimental, changes. Some of you have sent me emails with alerts about nonfunctioning issues and I can't thank you enough! You always come through for me. I promise, by the time the One Room Challenge is over, this site will be complete. 

And now, Let's talk about ORC Guest Participation! 

You have six Thursday posts to complete your room transformation. If you want to be precise, it is actually five weeks......unless you have already started....and that's OK! Each Thursday, after you have published your room transformation update, come to this site and link up your progress (a direct link to your post is best). 

Many readers and stalkers will visit you on a day other than Thursday. By placing the One room Challenge logo on your site, and linking it to your room, you will be able to help guide the traffic to your One Room Challenge™ project. 

The Rules:

1. Only link up rooms dedicated to the One Room Challenge.

2. Your post should include information about your space and a link back to my 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.

 

Just in case you are still feeling a little overwhelmed, here is the posting schedule with sample topics you can use as a guide:

Thursdays, April 7th (week 1) - Introduce your space, and tell us your plan. 

Thursday, April 14th (week 2) - Show us your progress. What have you accomplished?

Thursday, April 21st (week 3) - Have you encountered any setbacks? Any happy accidents?

Thursday, April 28th (week 4) - How's it going? Week 4 is the hardest!

Thursday, May 5th (week 5) - Did you revise your plan? Hang in there, you can do it. 

Thursday, May 12th (week 6) - The Finale - It's all about the pictures.

And just like that, you have a finished, or almost finished, or at least more than half way, or at least started.......room transformation!

We are all here to support one another. This will never be a competition. Jump in, and have fun. 

I hope to see you on Thursday, April 7th!
