It’s makeover time on Beauteeful Living now that the spring edition of the One Room Challenge (ORC) has arrived! For those new to this blog, I typically participate in this highly anticipated bi-annual event hosted by Linda of Calling It Home. Twenty design influencers are selected to take on this friendly makeover challenge as featured designers. Guest participants like myself can also join the challenge by sharing our process during these 6 weeks. The big reveals will take place May 8th (featured designers) and May 9th (guest participants). Oh… time is ticking away already!

Shall we get to the space that I’ll be working on for this spring’s ORC edition?
It’s time to “Take Back Our Home From Our Kids!” Okay, maybe not get rid of their entire playroom but I’m reclaiming a part of that space and turning it into a CRAFT room!
Here’s the space I’m working with for this makeover:
A close up of the left side of this space…
This space is on the first level of our home, right near our small foyer (see photo below). Between this wall and the foyer lies our guest bath. You may recall last spring’s ORC makeover when I updated our guest bath (link here).
Below is a photo of the center wall in this space which I’ll be treating as an accent wall.
I love how much light floods this space thanks to the large window in this photo. By the way, I definitely need new window treatments!
Now … the right side of the room. It’s time to say goodbye to the doll house and toy kitchen. 🙁
My To Do list for this 6 week challenge:
- Remove toy kitchen, kids’ sofa, doll house, and wall shelves
- Clean, Prime, and Repaint storage table
- Repair walls and Repaint room
- Remove stains on carpet
- Purchase and assemble large desk (or craft table)
- Select and install wallpaper for accent wall
- Purchase new office chair (swivel seat or rolling chair)
- Purchase accent rug (indoor/outdoor type)
- Purchase and assemble file/storage cabinet(s)
- Install new wall shelves
- Create wall art decor
- Style craft room for reveal post

Any thoughts on this new makeover project? Do you have a craft/creative space designated in your home? I’d love to know!
A craft is going to be so fabulous to have. Looking forward to the reveal. Have fun and good luck!.
Oooh, its going to be so fun to banish kid stuff and make your very own playroom!
I can’t wait to see how your craft room turns out! Excited to follow along with the progress 🙂
Would love to have a dedicated craft space! Looking forward to seeing how it turns out
Hi Tee. You’re back again! I guess we’re officially addicts :). Best of luck decorating your craft space.
Hi, Tee! It will be fun to do the One Room Challenge Together! I can’t wait to see how your space turns out! I am also looking forward to seeing Elephant in the Room Design’s products — I remember visiting their beautiful store together!

I have always wanted a craft room! That’s so exciting. Your previous makeovers are really beautiful!

So fun! Craft rooms are my favorite – all the organization and pretty supplies just make me…happy! Can’t wait to see.
Craft rooms make me so happy! When we bought out house, my husband and I decided he could have the whole garage as long as I got an entire craft room 🙂 I am excited to see it all come together, have fun!
Thanks, Andi! I’m excited for it to be all done 🙂
This is going to be so fun! I don’t have a dedicated craft space so I love watching other people carve out areas of their homes for their hobbies. Definitely on pins and needles!
Thanks so much, Teri!
