ONE ROOM CHALLENGE: WEEK 5
We are in week 5 of the one room challenge and still so much to do! I can’t believe I have to get this room done in one week. I sort of figured out what I am going to do for wall art. It’s a surprise and will reveal that the last week. This week, we will be focusing on flowers for the side tables.
My dresser (prize find) has been the best change of this whole process! I added some yellow flowers in blue and white vases, and set on top of the dresser. It really added a colorful, Mediterranean feel to the whole ambiance of the room.
I was confused a little about which vases to add the flowers, so the first thing I did was add the flowers to every vase, knowing that I may have to eliminate one. It ended being the prefect balance of color that the room needed.
As I mentioned, I am still figuring out which artwork to use on the wall across from the bed. I currently have them all displayed and set aside by the empty wall trying to decide. I wanted to add the corals all of the same color, but then I found some pretty coastal prints on sale at HomeGoods.
The coral artwork I found at a cute little shop in Charleston, SC. I love the color, but not sure if it’s too light. I was also thinking of using the darker blue coral made by yours truly with a stencil. It sometime gets so overwhelming trying to decide, which means it may be time to mull it over a nice walk.
So you will have to wait until next week to see the big reveal! Which artwork to you think I should use?
Don’t forget to stop by and visit the progress of the other one room challenge guest participants, plus the featured designers.

Thanks so much Kati, glad you liked your feature on Dream Create Inspire.
Love all the blue and that sea fan artwork! Can’t wait to see the room next week!
I like the small pops of yellow. I wish I had a green thumb so I could have some plants and flowers. I’m having a hard time deciding about art work, too. I like your coastal prints and the dark blue stencil. I think the other one is a little light for your room. Everything’s looking good! Nice rug.
Lucille, thanks for your visit! I don’t have a green thumb and I am hoping this plants will survive in there new vases, we shall see.Looking to the reveal so I can breath.
Thanks
Maria
