It feels like I spent the entire week online, or at least most of it. I found almost all of the items I need and placed the orders. A few items have arrived, which I will share with you today. But first, I want to share my design.
I finally managed to settle on a space plan. I tried two arrangements, and decided which one was best for the room.
I considered putting the bed on the window wall because it has the most beautiful ceiling line, but if I do so the chairs won’t fit at the end of the bed without making the walkway too narrow. Therefore, I decided to stick with my original plan of placing the bed on the exterior wall. It allows me to use the chairs I ordered, so it’s the clear winner.
I also was able to complete my design board.
Now it feels real!!!
See that chandelier? It’s here! It arrived in a crate, which is where it will live until it can be installed.
It’s actually hanging inside the crate.
I removed the outer plastic so I could see the finish, which is a gorgeous champagne color.
The beads are large and frosted. I’m in love!
A huge thanks to my sponsor, Currey & Company.
This chandelier is coming down.
I still like it, but I wanted something that was more fitting for my design.
The Gabby Home bed and nightstands are at the receiving warehouse so I should have them next week.
The Aidan Gray Helen chairs are on their way, but the lamps are on backorder, so wish me luck!
I will also feature two gorgeous Jaipur Living rugs. I want to layer them and I’m still trying to figure out if it will work. For now, I have the jute one in the space. The quality is excellent and the color is perfect. I’ll show you the other one soon.
Also, my mattress arrived today. However, it was a bit late in the day, so I wasn’t able to photograph it yet. However, if you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen it in my Instagram Stories. If you don’t follow me there yet, I’d love for you to do so as I’ll continue to share sneak peeks as pieces arrive.
My biggest decision remaining is whether to paint or not. My husband votes for the latter. Lol.
The walls are the same light taupe as the rest of my home.
Any thoughts and feedback would be welcomed and much appreciated!

April 13, 2017 at 7:38 amOh you know things are getting serious when items arrive in a crate! That chandelier is beyond gorgeous, and I can’t wait to see it installed! The rest of your mood board is right up my alley, too – what with the grays, golds and creams – I swoon!
Jennifer says
April 13, 2017 at 11:07 pmRight! I love a crated home decor item!!! Thank you! I’m loving your nursery plans too! 💕
Leslie says
April 13, 2017 at 8:00 amOh my goodness, that chandelier is gorgeous! I love that it’s not a bright, brassy gold. It’s the perfect mottled, aged tone. I think your room could look incredible with the current paint color. You’ve already got lots of texture, so it would just look bright and relaxing. Then again, I love color, so a bright pop on the walls would be fun, too. Looking forward to next week!
Jennifer says
April 13, 2017 at 11:15 pmThank you so much for your input on the walls. I really love the wall color. I’m sure I’ll probably keep it. Thanks again Leslie….and yes, the gold-champagne color is making my heart happy!

April 13, 2017 at 9:26 pmHi Jennifer…I cannot wait to see that chandelier in the room! It is gorgeous! I’m still trying to answer the “To paint or not to paint (or maybe wallpaper?)” question, too 🙂 Hopefully we’ll get inspired to make a decision this week 🙂
Jennifer says
April 21, 2017 at 5:07 pmThank you! I’m excited about the chandelier!!! The walls are still light taupe and likely staying that way….can’t wait to see what you decided!

April 14, 2017 at 2:50 pmCan’t wait to see the finished result! I love the rugs and all of your plans look awesome. This is my first ORC to participate in so it’s a bit overwhelming, but I am loving checking out everyones progress.
Jennifer says
April 21, 2017 at 5:10 pmThank you Holly! This is only my second ORC, but it has definitely been less overwhelming this time. I hope yours is coming along as planned! xo

April 19, 2017 at 4:25 amOh that chandelier is going to be SO good! And I excited about your plan to layer the rugs… I’ve thought about doing that in my living room but haven’t found the right pair of rugs just yet, so I can’t wait to see how yours looks together!
Jennifer says
April 21, 2017 at 5:12 pmYes, I’m so excited about the chandelier! I’m still working on the rug layering….it’s a bit more challenging than I anticipated!
