ORC Week 7: A fast and furious final week!!

We’re in the home stretch of this challenge and I’m SO excited and relieved!! And proud! Would you look at this gorgeous wallpaper job? After 16+ hours of back-breaking labor, we’re finished. Just in time to tackle the next tasks at hand so we can wrap this up on time! We need to finish and shoot these rooms by next Tuesday so I can share the results on Wednesday morning. It’s major crunch time.

Just look below at how far we’ve come with this closet! The credit in here goes to my husband Andrew, who spends all day at the hospital and then comes home and works his tail off conceptualizing and building this beautiful space for our daughter. He’s becoming quite the carpenter!
