W.O.W Result...

WOW I had a great time getting my project done! Moving back into our house with less furniture sure did create a problem - but I came up with some solutions thanks to those who were cheering me on!

Because of this challenge I was able to take 6 large bags of clothes to Other Mothers and get a nice check in return and then I drifted across the street to the Youth Ranch and got a good write off for next years taxes! Thank you Becky for helping me get this done!!!

I decided to up my challenge and do two rooms and I'm very happy with my results. I'm wishing I had a headboard and dresser but I made it all work!

Here is the before picture of my bedroom... What a mess!!!!


Here is the after picture of my room! So pretty! The red fabric is hiding a white 3 drawer plastic container. I sold my side tables in a garage sale (mistake) and this was suggested to me. I choose red to add a little color since I haven't painted yet. Painting will come on the next W.O.W.

I actually love that the room looks bare and you can see the carpet!


The formal dining room turned office... Oh my!!! Before Picture...
After Picture! I bought some baskets to put things in and I brought my Great Grandmothers desk down for extra storage. All the files got moved to the closet under the stairs.

Knowing you, I just KNEW your results would be awesome. You didn't disappoint me! : ) You did so great! I love the red fabric. I can't wait to do this again so I can see how you paint.

How soon will you be up for another round of W.O.W. or are you burned out? : )
