Well, the #oneroomchallenge is moving slooooooowly Well, the #oneroomchallenge is moving slooooooowly over here. I can’t get my paint sprayer to work, so the ceiling is on hold for now. But, this one wall is painted/ waterproofed and I started stenciling it! The flipping of the stencil is a little tricky, but I love how it looks so far! Budget update: I have spent a total of $57 for primer, a sample of @magnolia paint, and a @cuttingedgestencils Linear Tile Stencil. I’m determined to keep this project under $300!

Our laundry room has needed a makeover for quite some time, so it’s the perfect time to dive into a project. But...I don’t like to spend a lot of money. I’ve signed up for the @oneroomchallenge to work on this project for the next 6 weeks. My goal is to keep the budget under $300😬, so let’s how far I can stretch it! Do you think it’s possible?

Oh hey, remember when I used to post DIY projects? Oh hey, remember when I used to post DIY projects? Well, I’ve been doing lots of projects, but not sharing much. This dresser was a donation to our cabin by my bestie (Hey @mrsdre99 👋!). It didn’t fit my vibe and I felt guilty about changing the pristine exterior. But in the ever-wise words of my MIL, she told me that people don’t hand down furniture for you to hate it, they want you to love it, even if it means changing it to your style. After some sanding, black paint, and new hardware, I have to say I love this piece!  #furnitureflipchallenge #vintagefurniture #furnituremakeover
