ONE ROOM CHALLENGE – WEEK 6 – THE BIG REVEAL! BASEMENT FAMILY ROOM!

QUESTION – WHAT IS THE ONE ROOM CHALLENGE? –

ANSWER – The ONE ROOM CHALLENGE currently in its 11th season, is a bi-annual event, Started by the wonderful LINDA at CALLING IT HOME.  20 TOP Designers Take ONE ROOM and work their magic! . Close to 200 Guest Participants also play along and they ALL design, decorate, transform, renovate, small-scale, large-scale projects and each week – they post updates on their progress. Finally 6 weeks down the road..the BIG REVEALS happen!!!!

IT  IS  – in a word  – SPECTACULAR!!!!

HOLLY OF THE ENGLISH ROOM DID A MAKEOVER OF HER MASTER BEDROOM AND CLOSET AND THE RESULTS WILL BLOW YOU MIND – CONGRATS HOLLY!!!

TODAY is the DAY when ONE ROOM GUEST PARTICIPANTS (ME) AND OVER 150 OTHERS from all over the country – heck, maybe even the world…are all wiping OUR collective brows and saying

“I DID IT!”

 and IT is like a BIG GIANT PICTURE DAY!!!! It is like Christmas!!! The GIFTS just keep coming!!!!  NOW I need to brew a fresh pot of coffee and some yummy cupcakes (I cannot stop craving cupcakes) to sustain me ( I could get faint) while I look over ALL of the ROOMS!!!

Once again – thank you. You my friends are my online support system and I appreciate you all more than my words can convey.  Your showing up, cheering me on, leaving comments, sharing your thoughts and questions and opinions….mean so much to me and keep this thing going. Sometimes writing a blog can feel –  on the one hand – Energizing and Invigorating and mentally stimulating and on the other – A tad indulgent and I wonder if anyone would miss it if it were gone….and I hope you my readers know that for ME – it is all about YOU – sharing with YOU and reaching out and connecting with other like-minded and NOT like minded souls…making this big world smaller and easier to Navigate .

Thank you.

  1. This is great!!!! The colors the choices the whole room feels ready for a family to grow in and I love that it is not over – decorated !!!!

  2. What a transformation Lesli! Great side chairs and cute blue stools…..and the art! You nailed it!

  3. Love, love, love! Especially love that it doesn’t look or feel “decorated” – it came together just beautifully! Congrats Lesli –

    1. Thank you Kathy. My goal was to give the family a template upon which build as the kids grow and change with lots of places to sit with furniture that they can move around easily and not hurt or get hurt.

  4. Lesli, You are so creative! The room looks so welcoming and comfortable, a place where I’d just want to hang out. Well done. And, I noticed you have Gray Malin’s book “Beaches” on the table. One of my favorites-I’m kind of obsessed with his photography. From your blog it doesn’t look like any rooms in your house need a makeover! Diana Lucas

    1. Thank you Lianna ! I have a bit of a lamp obsession and those have had my heart for quite some time.- they are a pretty good deal too!!! come back soon!
