Boys Bedroom- ORC Week 4
Slow progress here in week number 4 of my One Room Challenge, but here are a couple of things that I saw, did, thought about buying and may buy soon… I mean I only have TWO weeks remaining!!
I got these letters from a local shop here in Mount Pleasant. They are easy to make, but I’m short on time, so I’m glad I found them.
Here’s the bed in my son’s room unpainted. (Need to get that done, too!)
You might recall I got the dresser and this fabulous lamp to go with it. I’m so happy with both of them. (Ignore the messy room.)
And, oh this night stand… I almost did a cartwheel when I saw it. Then I flipped the price tag over… $499. OUCH! Love my 2-year-old, but I need to be realistic. (sigh)
Curtains need to be made STAT! And, just to prove how crazy this challenge has been, I thought I would share that I brought home a fabulous fabric swatch and cannot find it anywhere. I’m officially losing it! I’ve flipped the house upside down looking for it.
In case it doesn’t work, here are some back-up options.
I dig this for some reason but need it in yellow.
Still on my list:
1. New headboard
2. Lighting
3. A desk
4. Curtains
5. A bench
6. Bedding
7. Accessories
8. Nightstands
9. Dresser
10. Art
Keep up with my chaos on Instagram! I hope to get my rear in gear and wow you in the end!

yeah, no 2 year old needs a $500 dresser!!! LOVE the bed even as is!
Krystine
Ha! Glad you agreed, hate that it’s so fabulous, time to find or make a knock off! Yay- glad you like the bed!
celine@aquahaus
Wow. Those letters are so cute! I love it.
Krystine
Thanks Celine!
Sarah Sofia Knepp
Wow, where do you find the time? Love the letters! I’m feeling motivated after seeing your progress. I’m in similar boat with my daughter big girl room makeover. At least you already have the bed, that expense might not happen on my end. You got this! Can’t wait to see it pulled together!
Krystine
Sarah- get her an upholstered bed- there are SO many good deals right now! We need to motivate one another I feel like I’m struggling this week!
Christine Dovey
Those wooden letters are amazing and LOVE the dresser. Can’t wait to see your reveal!
Krystine
Thanks Christine! I can’t wait to get my act together!

That bed kills me every time. Love the spindles. Dresser is a fav too!. Bummer about the spendy nightstand. It is fabulous but you can find something equally fab for less than $500 bones. Sheesh. Feel you about losing fabric swatches – I have lost my mind 3 times and can’t remember where I left it. Probably in an antique mall somewhere.
Krystine
You’re hilarious! I’m glad I’m not the only one losing them!
Albertina || Mimosa Lane
I really love the bed and the color of it. I adore the scrabble letters…how fun! I hope you find your swatch!
Krystine
You don’t think I should paint it? Thanks Albertina! I give up on the swatch going to get another one!
Jana Bek
Love those wood letters & Channing will love the funky fabric – I lose swatches like it’s my job! SO annoying!
Krystine
Ha that makes me feel better! It’s making me crazy going to get another tomorrow
Carrie
Love those Scrabble letters! I can totally relate about the missing swatch! Hope it turns up or you find something else you love! π
Krystine
Thanks Carrie! I give up going to get another swatch tomorrow!

I am so in love with spindle beds! So funny that your son has the same name as Cameron’s husband! Can’t wait to see what you pick for fabric!
Krystine
Thanks Beth, I’m so glad I found it, it rocks! Ha, I just saw her today and said that I had no clue that was his name, that’s funny!

Your son may not “need” the dresser but it is awesome! I love the scrabble letters! Awesome focal piece.

Krystine
Ha, thanks Sheila! It does rock!
