The most logical, and aesthetically pleasing spot for it was the back wall, which limited my options for the setup of the rest of the room. The daybed is big, and I had to work the entire room around it as a result. Perhaps a smaller sofa would have been better. While I love my navy upholstered daybed, I’ll admit that on more that one occasion, I questioned whether it was the right choice. I sold some things on Facebook, which freed up space for a new look. But, it’s still a great space, and it will serve a useful and functional purpose.

So, the office portion of this room redesign was sacrificed (for now), because I just couldn’t figure out how to incorporate all of it and make it work. I’m more of a fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants kind of girl. And let’s be honest, I’m not a best-laid-plans kind of girl. Sometimes, even the best laid plans don’t turn out the way you want.

Full transparency, the room didn’t end up the way I planned, but that’s ok. So, I had to evolve, adjust and change – roll with the punches. That said, I didn’t anticipate how tricky the layout of this room was going to be to deal with in accomplishing my goals.
My original plan was to make this a multi-functional space – a room for guests to sleep, space for my office and crafts, an area to lounge (and as my kids see it, another place to play Fortnite). My daughter wants to make it her bedroom, so that tells you something, right? My friend Kim coined the phrase “Zen Den” – and I think it’s a great description for this room. So in that sense, it has been worth the stress in pulling it together. Now it’s a room I don’t have to shut away or hang my head in mortification when repair guys have to walk through it to fix our water softener. But, I did a lot of purging, donating, etc…, and while there is still work to do, some definite progress has been made. Christmas decorations, graduation stuff, craft supplies, you name it. I’m not really a hoarder, (says every real-life hoarder), but honestly, this place was just a dumping ground for everyone’s crap.

That said, this challenge has really been a tough one, but I’m excited to share how it ended up, despite my best laid plans. But truth be told, I love the rooms that I’ve done as part of these challenges, and the deadline forces me to make decisions that I would otherwise dwell on for weeks months. I added mine up, and would you believe this is my fifth One Room Challenge?!? Yes, apparently I’m a slow learner, and a glutton for punishment, because at the end of these challenges, I’m always wondering why I decided to do them.
