ORC Spring 2022-ASSI

One Room Challenge-Week 1-Start

Yes, I am back!!!  It is the first week of the one-room challenge.  The laundry room transformation is ready to come to life.   First, I want to give a round of applause to ORC’s Tenth Year.  Love it!! This is my third time participating in the one-room challenge.  As I have mentioned in some previous posts this is the schedule for completing my home projects. 

ORC-Guest

Spring is a busy time, so I like to go small in my home. These 8 weeks will sneak up on you. My last ORC was Spring 2021 and completed my entryway. Now moving from the front to the back of the house. 

Honestly, it wasn’t on my list to participate this season.  I really wanted to wait until the fall challenge.  As time went on a smaller project seemed great to get off my to-do list. The plan for the fall is to take on a bigger project. Perhaps my garage or backyard this fall. I know I will need some help in the laundry to remove the one shelf that is up (see below).  Slow and steady progress for a good project outcome.

The Bookcase

More importantly, the only item I have in my possession is a narrow bookcase from Ikea.  This bookcase has been out of stock for the longest time.  I knew that item was the one I needed in this transformation. The space is small. I checked Ikea’s website almost daily for an in-stock reading. Once I saw IN STOCK, it was a stop everything and get that bookcase home.  It has been housed in my garage.  Granted I did not inspect/open the box yet. These shelves at Ikea have been lacking for a while. Nothing is really stocked these days, so I need this bookcase to be in good shape.    

Looking forward to the weeks ahead as I transform my laundry.  I will share the moodboard next week on Instagram.

Happy 10th Anniversary ORC!!
