Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo.......
I'm going to try to keep this short and sweet because lots of words are just annoying-- amirite?
Week 1 // Week 2 // Week 3 // Week 4 // Week 5
I found a gorgeous chair on Marketplace and had it recovered in a leopard fabric I got for a steal at Hobby Lobby! I added a faux plant wall and then topped it off with a gorgeous neon sign from Hey Light Co. They were amazing to work with and I LOVE HOW IT TURNED OUT. It got here with time to spare and completely makes the space.
The coffee table is SO fab. It's an original Milo Baughman piece from Craigslist. Each circle rotates independantly which makes the piece so sculptural and functional. It can fold so the circles completely stack, or it can spread out really far.
One of my favorite parts of the room is the white Chippendale chair I scored at a local shop. The shape brings in that Palm Beach style and adds so much interest to this side of the room. I hunted and hunted for the perfect chair and was so happy to find this one.
The sconces are the cherry on top. They are not hard-wired and I plan to do the "magic light trick" with them (remote operated lights) which I'll explain sometime soon.
This project would not be possible without Linda from Calling it Home, who organizes the One Room Challenge. I had no idea I would be doing this two short months ago and it's truly been a blast, connecting me with awesome people and sharpening my design skills. Better Homes and Gardens is the sponsor and that's incredibly exciting because they are AMAZING, and because we are both from Des Moines :) Thank you, BHG, for championing good design for so many years.
Lastly, I want to thank my mom who let me turn her beloved cottage upside-down. She is the most generous, loving woman you could meet. I know it pained her to have me change this place because it's so dear to her heart but she was happy to let me do it and championed me along the whole time. Thank you, mom, for always being my biggest fan, I love you (and I hope you don't hate my design- ha!).
Now, go and support ALL the other featured and guest designers. We are all happy-tired and need your love and encouragement. Thank you for following along, you guys keep me going.
xoxo,
Rachel
