ORC: Master Bedroom Makeover Plan

I'm excited to join Linda's One Room Challenge again! This is not a competition but a six week
challenge to push yourself to finish a room. Here are a couple of my other rooms I've done in the past:
                               Tween daughter's room                            Laundry room
For those of you who are coming over from Linda's site, let me introduce myself. I live in Maryland near
horse country and the Potomac river. My husband and I like to work on DIY projects together and we
have four girls. I love classic styles and pops of color. I love being a mom, running, baking and making
our home feel welcoming and happy.

The room I chose to work on is our master bedroom. Aka: The room on the back burner. We've lived in
our home for two years and the only big thing we did was to paint the walls. I did get some new curtains at
Marshall's awhile back too. When we moved in we got a King bed and some new white bedding.  Here's
the room in it's state right now.
See what I mean about back burner? Why do we have the kid's electric piano in here? The double doors
lead to our bathroom.
We've had this dresser for a long time. Last year I finally changed out the wooden knobs, but I think this
dresser might look better if I de-glossed it and took off the stain.
                                                      Don't you love this nice blank slate?

We have our work cut out for us if we're making a headboard, bench and changing the look of the dresser. A gallery wall of black and white family pictures would be nice too. This will be fun! Please come back on Thursdays to check on the progress of the room. Also, don't miss the other twenty designers who will not disappoint to inspire you.

The Making of a Tween Girl's Bedroom


Girl's Tween Bedroom Makeover



Girl's Tween Bedroom Makeover by tracylaverty 

I haven't touched our daughter's room since we moved into our home and it's high time I did! We are starting off with a blank canvas in here, which is great! Linda from Calling It Home created a One Room Challenge (ORC) where twenty designers show a room they are working on and then reveal their final product at the end of six weeks. This is a great motivating challenge to get her room done.  I'll show you my progress of the room for the next four weeks (they're already two weeks into it). I'll be participating via her link party where other bloggers are showing their progress along with the other designers. I love this challenge because lets face it, I need a deadline! 
.
Above is the inspiration board I have for our daughter's bedroom. Her room is a blank slate right now. Here are some BEFORE pictures.
 I plan on making a headboard and adding in some new pillows, bedding and art work.
New curtains will go here and maybe some DIY window seats (if there is time). I'm excited to show you how this room is progressing over the next four weeks.

Come back this week to see my tutorial for the Melrose Knock-off table we made for the CWTS contest.
