Playroom things..,

Happy hump day!

We are almost officially a week into summer. 
Kids around here started summer vacation last week (!)

Can you believe it?
I sure can't!

I am a little nervous that I will blink and this summer will be over.


I started this playroom  for a great family, this past spring. 
The goal was to be done by summer.

We are 9o% there.
Just waiting on a few things to come in.
So no after pictures today.
Just the plans!









There are two sides to the room.
The TV side (first two options) 
and the art side.
 Definitely, a room that can grow with the kiddos.

Let me know if you have any additional questions!

Don't blink;)

One last ORC Post- the sources

I am still amazed at all the love I received from the ORC. 
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 

I meant to post sources last week..,
But things got a little busy.

So here it is..,
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me!



[ I had the bench reupholstered locally]














The tables are a custom design, but the unlacquered brass hardware is from here

I *think* that is everything.


Did you see this house this morning?
I am amazed at all she can do!

Have a great day!!

ORC 2.0

Hi everyone!  
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Thank you for all the nice comments on the ORC reveal! I had planned on a source post., but I am having some computer trouble.., it will be soon, I promise! 
Some of you noticed my nightstands were very different than my design board. I decided to go custom..,
and guess what.., they didn't make it in time. 
Bummer! 
But..,
Look what arrived on Mother's Day?! 
(Sorry for the bad iPhone picture!)

They are 90% there.., I dropped the steel bases off today to be brass plated. Then, they really will be amazing!!
That's the funny thing about design, you're always waiting for something!
I promise to share as soon as I get them back!

Cheers to Monday being over!

ORC Final Reveal!!!!

We made it!
The final reveal day for the ORC.



I still can't decide if it was a marathon or a sprint.
I think I'll go with a sprint because everything came together last night.

Funny story,
We went to gymnastics yesterday and Ellie said to all the other moms-

"you gotta see my moms room, its beautiful!"

the other moms were like- umm ok.
They have no idea!

But at least E is proud of her mama:)


Should we take one last look of where we started...


yuck...


The Plan


And how we ended up...









I really do love the fireplace.
The white is nice, for now., 
But 
I am already thinking cement tiles would be really pretty.














The lights and gallery wall are really pretty.., although hard to photograph.


(he had a long day)
ha!

I would like to thank everyone who have stopped by this little blog during the challenge. This has been such a supportive and encouraging experience, more than I ever imagined!
Also, thank you to Linda- for providing the push I needed to finally start (and finish) this room.

I am planning to do a follow up post early next week with sources.

For all you mothers out there, I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Do yourself a favor, grab a cup of coffee (or wine) and check out the other wonderful reveals.

I. Love. Them!
