Hi guys, today we’re halfway through the One Room Challenge and I’m feeling pretty good. It’s definitely still going to be a stretch to get everything finished, but I’m still optimistic! If you want to know more about the One Room Challenge, or what’s happened the past couple weeks you can read about it here:

It’s Thursday, you know what that means! It’s time for a 2017 One Room Challenge update!Last week I shared the before photos of the room and some general plans. And, as promised I have the mood board I’m using as a jumping off point. Plus, some material and fabric ideas.

2017 One Room Challenge: Week 1

October 5, 2017 Allie Ellenbogen

Hi there! Happy Thursday, friends. I’m so excited about today’s post because I’ve decided to participate in the One Room Challenge (!!!) as a guest blogger. If you’re not familiar with the One Room Challenge it’s a 6-week event where 20 or so bloggers choose a room and completely renovate it. Changes run the gamut from just decor updates to gut renovations. Every week they post updates of their progress and at the end of the 6-weeks there are all these beautiful, inspiring rooms to marvel at. And the best part is that anyone with a blog can participate as a guest – so that’s what I’m doing! Guest participants share weekly updates every Thursday, so this is the first in a series of 6 installments!

Living Room Décor Idea: Traditional and Cozy

September 13, 2017 Allie Ellenbogen

Today I have another e-design. This time it’s a living room décor idea that’s traditional with a casual and contemporary twist.

This is one I’ve been working on for a client and is a bit more traditional than I usually swing towards. But, I’m really loving how fresh yet masculine it feels. The leather sofa and chunky coffee table ground the space. And those gorgeous swivel rockers, the lighter furniture, and clear glass lamps all add some femininity. The texture on the navy pillows as well as from the stone fireplace make it feel extra cozy. Overall it’s a great blend of traditional, casual, and cozy. What do you think?

Update: Living Room Rug

Hi everyone, happy Wednesday! Today I’m sharing a little update on our living room rug. I’ve been getting some questions about where it’s from and how it’s worn. It’s been about two years since we bought it so it felt like a good time to share.

Living Room Decor Idea

July 10, 2017 Allie Ellenbogen

Over the weekend I did another e-design and this time it was a living room. I keep thinking about how much I want a sectional and even though it would be a while before we got one because we have so many other things on the list that are more important right now I was still inspired by this one.
