Week 6 – The Reveal – We made it!
We made it. I’m sorta kinda maybe amazed at how it all came together. I can’t imagine having done something like this on my own, I’m so glad I chose to work with a family. Not only did I meet some great people and make friends, but I had an extra two sets of hands helping me with everything. Even the kids helped with their toy placement. It truly was a team effort, and I am humbled by the outcome.
The brand relationships I’ve been building towards over the past few years, the know-how I’ve picked-up since I started the blogging journey, and the design boldness I’ve grown into – all contributed to the success of this space, and I’m just so proud.
Before we get to the stunning reveal photos, I want to remind you of what it looked like before.
They had an extra couch, no rug, bad lighting, and a wall colour that needed to be updated.
Say it with me folks “no yellow beige walls ever”
Week 1, we unveiled the plans for the room. Can you tell how much the final product is actually different from what we thought it would be?! // here //
Week 2: we painted the walls with the help of Behr Paint // here //
Week 3: we upholstered a wingback chair with the help of Online Fabric store.net // here //
Week 4: we talked accessories and how were going to finish the room with the help of Society 6 & Wayfair // here //
Week 5: we were finally able to get our build projects done with the help of The Home Depot & Ryobi // here //
Week 6: we finished the room with an amazing rug from Rugs USA and pulled the space together.
The room is now completed and resplendent in all its beauty and perfection.
Although I thought we’d be taking the room in a more farmhouse modern direction (lots of black and white with geometric shapes), we ended-up with Coastal Canadiana and I love it!
We went with this stunning print from Rugs USA: Radiante BC68 Modern Navajo Rug in Mustard
We were also considering these options though: the Monochrome Hexagon CS03 Rug in Grey, the Kiwa WA02 Handwoven Jute Birdseye Diamond Rug, the Vernazza Parallels PL03 Rug in grey, the Arenite TR01 Flatweave Solid Tassel Rug in blue or yellow
