It’s Week 6 of the One Room Challenge ya’ll. I”m working overtime to get this space completed! I actually think I work better under pressure although my family is ready to lock me out of the house.

So here we are and so much has taken place within the last 2 weeks. First up is this gorgeous wallpaper!! This is my first time using wallpaper in my home and I’m obsessed. Previously, I thought that since I’m such a fickle person and like to switch things up a lot that I couldn’t commit to wallpaper. Well I’ve since changed my tune and realized that I just need to commit to the RIGHT wallpaper. And this whimsy wallcovering by GP & J Baker does not disappoint.

Next up is plumbing. If you recall, my first vanity was received in mid May and came in damaged. Well…the second one came in with a hairline crack in the sink. Insert every curse word imaginable and I’m sure I said it. I mean, why does this keep happening??? At this point, I don’t have time to order another one and just need to make a decision on which one to use. I quickly realize the damaged piece on the first vanity isn’t so bad because there’s no way my plumber is going to install a vanity with a cracked sink. And honestly, I don’t want to deal with any potential issues down the road with this even if it can be repaired.

Thankfully, there were no issues with my toilet. I went with a comfort height Kohler brand that fit perfectly in the powder room. I did change out the lever from a nickel finish to an antique brass. I’m so fancy!

At the end of this week, I plan to have the window treatment installed along with the toilet paper holder and hand towel ring. So let’s see where we are with that to do list…
