Week 5. Kill me know. Since I'm already running way behind I might as well keep it going with mirrors that I ordered that are backordered until November and take 6-8 weeks to ship. Are you f'ing kidding me? What can I say? They were the right size and shape. I'm hoping the finish isn't going to be an issue. Especially after waiting that long.

That is the candidate for the lambrequin fabric with that color green rope trim that will be on the bottom edge. You like? You can also see a peek of the Neo Toile fabric in the background. I found a crazy deal for it online ($11 per yard) so I promptly bought 40 yards. Yes I know it's a lot but I thought for a minute that I was going to use it in my dining room and then thought the better of it. It's actually going in my sunroom (if that room ever gets finished) but since I have 40 FREAKIN YARDS of it I thought I might bring some of it into the foyer. If I get a minute and can fix my sewing machine I'll make a pillow or two out of it and see how it looks.
And the lambrequin lady came by with a template. So that step is done, but it will still take a few weeks to make. I framed some of the historical pictures/documents about the house and the blueprint is being framed as well so just waiting on those and the mirrors to put up. So once again, very little progress but I'm excited to see progress at all, quite frankly.
I'm off to work, but can't wait to check out the Challengers and Linkers to see what everyone has been up to.
Tiffany it's all coming together!! Even if you don't have all your elements done by next week you are well on your way, that has to feel so great!!
ReplyDeleteWell I'd rather do it right and get things that I love and have it work, then get them by next week. Love your fabric and trim choices! Good luck this week!
ReplyDeleteI have fantasies of making a lambrequin one day. For now I will live vicariously through you. Can't wait to see the reveal. Love your fabrics !!
ReplyDeleteThings will all come together ;) Love everything in that bottom photo.
ReplyDeleteI adore your style and can't wait to see it all together. Lambrequins - yes please!
ReplyDeleteOh that is so me ordering something for a future project ...with the best of intentions. Hope you are feeling better these days.my wallpaper obsession continues . Next up my office.
ReplyDeleteThat is good news! Six weeks is an arbitrary number, it will look awesome when its all done.
ReplyDeleteDude, all in good time. Just take your time and make the space of your dreams. It will be worth it!
ReplyDeleteYou are working it with those gorgeous fabrics and trim! I have faith:)
ReplyDeleteWell, it may not be ready for the one room challenge but I can't wait to see it all come together. So many gorgeous elements!
ReplyDeleteIt is going to look FABULOUS.
ReplyDeleteI can't even believe the deal you got on that fabric- amazing. And I LOVE those green tassels. Can't wait to see this come together!
ReplyDeleteWho cares if it's a tad late, it's going to be crazy gorgeous, Tiffany! What a steal on the fabric, lucky girl!
ReplyDeleteTiffany, time means nothing in the big picture, I know you're going to make it look fabulous! That fabric is amazing. Can't wait to see more!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt is going to be fabulous! Don't sweat the six weeks. It's better to do your room the way you want it rather than push to "finish" with something you might not be really happy with.
ReplyDeleteLove the fabrics and trim and that mirror - swoon! Agree - wait for the mirror you want rather than rushing it and choosing something you're not happy with - been there, done that!
ReplyDeleteYour fabric combo makes me SO HAPPY! I can't wait to see this space!!
ReplyDeleteWhere oh where were you able to find the neo tole fabric for such a great price???!!!
ReplyDeleteI think it was form Sirs fabric online. It was already the lowest price I had seen at I think $14 something but on top of that they were having a sale. I've looked since and they've raised the price. I'm sure that's my fault;)
