One Room Challenge Spring 2022 Week 5 - The Laundry Room
I feel like I accomplished so much this week - and also like I have so much left to do! I’m not 100% sure it will all get done, but I’m going to try… I feel like its starting to move in the right direction though.
This week I patched the drywall and then painted in the main space. On the stairs, I sanded, caulked, primed, and then painted - but I need another coat to really be done with this part. I left the middle unpainted because it will be covered by a runner. The runner I ordered should be here tomorrow… which conveniently is when I am headed out of town for a fun weekend getaway with some friends.
My poor dog is not a fan of the carpet-less stairs and has to be convinced to go down them daily (which is a problem because to get to her doggie zipline, you have to go downstairs.)
I invested in a paint sprayer to paint the cabinet and IKEA project - but I’m a little nervous about using it (which is probably why I haven’t completed those projects yet). It should hopefully help them go faster and allow me to achieve a smoother finish which is the goal.
Here is the rough schedule for the next three weeks:
Week 6 - Finish stairs (second coat of paint, install runner), paint cabinet, stain shelves, paint & install trim, IKEA project
Week 7 - Install Cabinet, Shelves, finish IKEA project, sand/paint stair rail
Week 8 - Refinish/seal floors, install IKEA cabinet, style space
Hopefully I can fit it all in! If you want to check out the other ORC projects (which you should), visit the ORC blog here.
