Guest Room Makeover – ORC Week 2

Guest Room Makeover – ORC Week 2

It’s week 2 of the One Room Challenge (ORC) and I’m making some headway on my mess of a guest room. I managed to find a home for everything in the pile-o-crap that had been sitting in the middle of the room since we moved in a few months ago. The room looks about twice as big with everything cleared out of it:



Remember the “before”? It was pretty close to an episode of Hoarders but without the dead cats at the bottom of the pile. The “after” left me with a lot more space to work with than I had envisioned (maybe I can even fit a loveseat in here?!). The biggest fan of the clean-up is my little black and white buddy who is loving this wide expanse of comfy carpet in a house full of hardwoods.





And so much more sunshine is coming through the small window. Those balloon valences were even uglying up the outside of my house – see them through the window over my fall window boxes that hang outside of that room?:




The rest of the progress was all about fabrics – I’m going with euro shams in this awesome nubby fabric that I found at The Fabric House in Greenwich – it’s a small store but they’ve got some killer fabrics at amazing prices.



And I decided to use this beautiful fabric (Jensen Cloud) from Calico Corners for new fabric window shades:


For the style of the shades, I plan to do simple flat roman shades like these:
