Reveal Week!!! ORC Fall

Well it’s barely under the wire and I’m JUST about done. A few items I needed help so reveal photos will have to wait, but I’ve tossed in couple of process photos as I had a big project this weekend! All that’s left? Installing the closet door hardware, hanging the mirror (she’s heavy!) and tweaking THOSE SHELVES.

For now, please take a look at the makeover of the closet doors! I went back and forth on these. Should I leave them trim white (matches, but expected)? Should I neutralize and paint them the wall color? Or should I go bold??? I say go bold or stay home! (Wait…I am home). Anyway, I used a paint product I love – Majic Paints furniture paint. It’s got great coverage, dries smoothly and I can buy it Amazon, lol! Once this had dried, I masked off some of the molding on the door panels and included a little touch of gold.

Pretty happy with the results – Dan loves it to – might end up doing the front door!

Time to Update To-Do List

• Order fabric for the window covers
• Order fabric for the desk chair
• Order new woven privacy blind without Cat-tempting cords

• Drop off my previously made-over and very comfy desk chair.
• Remove and elevate the existing desk AND repaint it. (Color TBD – MORE one that next week)

• Add Hardware to closet doors – The Hubs will be doing this one.
