One Room Challenge - Week 6 - The Reveal



Welcome back to week 6 of The One Room Challenge™.   Today I am going to dispense with my usual jibber jabber and get right to the reveal.  But first I want to extend some big thanks you’s:  a huge thank you and congratulations to Linda of Calling It Home for organizing this amazing challenge and including me among such widely talented folks; a million thank you's go out to my mister without whom none of this would have been possible - this ORC was another down-to-the-wire situation and there were more than a few moments when I really questioned whether I could pull this off but thanks to the tireless efforts of my mister and my in laws we accomplished a lot in six weeks for having done everything ourselves; and last, but certainly not least, thank you to YOU for following along.  All of your comments and well wishes kept this party rocking.  To see the entire evolution of the room from the beginning, click the following links below:

WEEK 1:  Plan & Inspiration
WEEK 2:  Progress Report – Floors
WEEK 3:  Electricity
WEEK 4Upholstery
WEEK 5: Paint & Wallpaper

And now on to the reveal.  Sadly, I did not get the custom table cloth (the Lebowski element) back in time from the seamstress which is sort of a major bummer as it was the jumping off point for the entire color scheme of green, pink, and blue – so if things seem a little disparate, know that the tablecloth ties everything together.  When that beaut arrives I will be sure to share.  And now on with the show…












































And now I drink.  Heavily.  A detailed source post will be forthcoming. Go check out everyone else's reveals!

A special thank you to the following sponsors and supporters of Chez V and The One Room Challenge that are graciously providing items to help me bring my vision for this room to life:

Omg!! It's gorgeous and styled to perfection. I love the wallpaper and your mix of patterns and colors. Love the pink pagoda prints and the lighting is incredible. If this isn't your profession it should be.

HOLY CRAP!!!!! Girl! You freaking nailed this! It's gorgeous and incredible and looks straight out of traditional homes. I am so proud of you! This room is just gorgeous and makes me want to rethink my whole plan for a simple white kitchen. I think a lot of people are going to love all this color for a nice change! xo

Beth Connolly said...

Seriously beautiful. You are my kind of girl. Love the wallpaper, the mirror, the prints from The Pink Pagoda, your styling. Fabulous!

home before dark said...

The only thing I see wrong with this space is that it's too happy, too embracing, too damn much fun. People will never leave your house. Ever!

I hope you and the Chez V family are enjoying this amazing space. And, yes, I'm still whining that my lawyer husband doesn't sew or do electrical work!

Carrie said...

This is the perfect mix of glamour and comfort. I wish it was my house. Great job!!

Beyond spectacular. You absolutely nailed it!! That wallpaper sets such an amazing tone. Love it all.

You hit it out of the park. Absolutely gorgeous. I'm approaching level 4 stalker status with the amount of times I've gone back to scroll through the pictures, and every time I find a beautiful detail I overlooked the first dozen times.

Absolute perfection! Your banquette is the perfect inspiration for my tiny nook! And all the artwork with that gorgeous wallpaper...

Amazing. This is such a high energy and beautiful space! I LOVE what you did using the silver ice bucket and small silver cup instead of crocks to hold spoons and kitchen utensils. Wonderful inspiration. Thank you.
