It is the One Room Challenge-Week 3-Lake House bedroom and I got so many projects completed this week.

One Room Challenge

Just a reminder of what the One Room Challenge is. The One Room Challenge or the ORC is a challenge where participants get to show how they transform a space in a few weeks. Better Home and Gardens is the media partner for the ORC. It is a bi-yearly challenge that usually lasts 6 weeks. This year’s challenge this year is like no other One Room Challenge because of the quarantine for the Covid-19 virus. We are encouraged to use what we have because most states still have some level of shelter in place. Also, I am going to spend as little as I possibly can because we do not know what effect this quarantine will have on my husband’s business.

My room is at our lake house 45 minutes away. I have been working as much as I can at home. This is the first time during the challenge that we are going to spend the weekend at the lake to work.

Vertical Shiplap

Painting and priming boards

I had Home Depot cut my boards before I took them to the lake. By doing this, I can fit the boards into my car. I will have a tutorial on the vertical shiplap coming soon. The boards were primed and painted outside.

The vertical shiplap is installed at about 5 feet high.

Vertical shiplap for the One Room Challenge.

I added a small shelf that sits on top of the vertical shiplap. The baseboards have been cleaned and given a fresh coat of paint. After I installed the painted boards to the wall, I realize that the baseboard on the shiplap wall needs to be painted the same color as the shiplap. This will be done this weekend along with painting the doors a neutral color and changing the fan.

The sink was removed.

My husband removed the old sink and vanity for me. I received my new sink this week and it is perfect. The sink is a wall mount sink and it is very small. As a result, we will have much more room in the world’s tiniest bathroom.

DIY faux concrete console table

My waterfall faux concrete table has been built. I also applied the faux concrete technique to the table and I love how it turned out. I will share the completed table pictures and the tutorial in the next few weeks. It is so good.

Thrifted lamps to be painted.

A few weeks ago, I took a screenshot of two lamps that I want. They are black with the found pottery look.  While making a quick run through the thrift store, I found two lamps with the exact same shape for $6.99 each. I will do the found pottery technique to the lamps.

The One Room Challenge Week 3 lake house bedroom makeover is done.  Next week will be tutorials for the projects.
