Woohoo!! We are at the half way mark of the One Room Challenge and the Studio Dining Room/Conference Room is starting to take shape. To catch up on the progress so far check out week 1 and week 2.
I managed to get a few things done, despite having a busy week with new clients and projects in progress.
I assembled the blue Safavieh sideboard. It took me about an hour or so. I usually don’t like assembling furniture but this was easy!

I got a bit of spray painting done.

I got most of the fabrics for custom pillows and box pleat skirt ordered, and I started to hang art and plates on the walls
This is the handy dandy plate hanger that I have been using. They are available on Amazon.

I will be using a few pieces from my budding Ironstone collection. I have only started collecting recently, so it is not quite impressive just yet

And of course I am still very excited about my recent acquisition…..the Restoration Hardware Vintage Carousel Horse! It will look amazing in the space when it’s all finished. I considered refinishing it in a distressed white, but I decided to keep it as is.

you always have so many exciting things going on!
love that sun mirror
can’t wait for your next room
Love the look you are achieving! The plate hangers make me a little nervous, are they awesome though??
They are pretty solid Jennifer. The glue is really strong, so I’m not worried at all
I need to find those adhesive plate things! I did not know they made those.
These are available on Amazon Lauren. Just search adhesive plate hanging discs
I have always wanted a sideboard in my dining room, but the room itself is so small that I just don’t have the room for one. WTG for assembling it yourself!
Thanks Robin!
It seems every time I get a spray can in my hands and go outside, the wind kicks up and I can’t spray anything. The mirror turned out great.
Sounds like you got a ton of things done. Way to go!
I love your grouping of the starburst mirror and plates. I’m thinking about doing something similar over my headboard. I’ve never seen those plate hangers either. Very interesting.
I had never seen those adhesive plate hangers. That’s a cool product!
I love your color scheme Veronica. Every thing looks so glamorous!
You got so much done, and it looks great! I love the colors too.
Ha! I thought that plate hanger was a whoopie cushion…my bad! I love your white pumpkin and gourds.
Lol. It does look like one, doesn’t it? No room is complete without a whoopie cushion!
Can you seriously come to my house? I need some decor love
I would love to Christie! Just say when!
Great looking side board and you plate wall looks really good.
Thank you Stacey
You are so talented…anytime you want to stop by my house let me know!
Haha! I’ll be right over Tracey!
Oh my goodness, I always wondered how people were able to get plates to hang on the wall! That little plate hanger is brilliant! Amber E.
I love the plate wall! I’ve always wanted to try one out in my kitchen but I’ve never gotten around to it.
It’s easy to do too. You should go for it
I love the plates on the wall! You are so crafty!
Thank you!
It looks beautiful! I’ve seen those plate hangers but haven’t used them yet. Love your orchid and ironstone collection.
Thank you Carrie
Gorgeous! I wish I had your talent.
Thanks Anne! We all have our unique gifts.
I like how you added the plates on the wall. Very nice!
Thank you Louida!
I love this! My sister wants to do a plate wall. She has been looking for secure hangers. Don’t want them falling down.
Great idea Keikilanij. These are a great option
I love the asymmetrical mirror and the way it looks on the wall. I’ve always loved what mirrors add to each room.
Thank you. I’m actually not finished with the other side yet. I will be adding more plates
I just love how you’re putting this together. It’s looking fantastic!
Thank you Liz!

That’s great Melissa! Thank you!
This is looking so good! I can’t wait to see it finished.
Thank you Marni. Just three more weeks till reveal
I always wondered how people hung plates. I have a bunch of them that were my grandmothers that I would love to display like that…now I know how, thanks!
Thank you Debra. They are available on Amazon
Those adhesive plate disks are awesome! I have been looking for a better way to hang plates.
Well there you go Pam. Lol.
Everything looks lovely as usual. I wondered about your horse. I’m gald you’re keeping him as is!
Thanks Rosy! I did decide to leave it as is
Your style is very pretty! I had no idea that they made special plate hangers!
Yes Amy. Seems a lot of folks are just finding out about them
I love this. You inspire me to make my rooms nicer, prettier and unique. I will look at some of the other sites that are linked here. Thanks!
Thank you Pam. I am glad that you are finding some inspiration here
Wow the room is looking good. you creative eye and talent for design is amazing.
Thank you Becca
I had no idea you could hang plates like that. It looks so much better than the ones I’ve seen with little prongs. Great style! I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Yes Mickey. A lot of folks are shocked by them. Three more weeks to the big reveal
I absolutely love how you decorate and style things dear!
Thank you so much Aisha!
Well you’ve The room looks great!
Thanks Stacie!
You are so talented! Wow! I love the Vintage Carousel Horse.
Thank you Latoicha!
As someone who collects plates, I am wondering what the advantage of using that type of plate holder (which I’ve not seen before) is.
The advantage is you don’t see the hanger from the front. The traditional ones would show the hanger. This one is very effective. It is highly adhesive so there is really no risk of the plates falling off the walls
Love this!! Looks fun Veronica! And I love how you style your stuff.
Thanks Pauline
I’m loving that plate wall! I have a thing for ironstone, too, and have a couple of pieces. If I had the space, I would have tons of it! Painting the mirror was brilliant.
Thank you Carol. It was a shiny gold. I have had that mirror over 17 years now
LOVE your style, simple yet classy…that’s my style too!! You did that challenge justice…good luck with your next one, I hope I get to see it!!
Thanks Kim. There are 3 more weeks left to reveal!
I really want to start a plate wall. I think they are so cute!
Thank you Krystal. And you can change them out seasonally!
Love what you put together for your wall. I need to decorate.
Thanks Shell. It’s a work in progress
I just love that sideboard. It looks fantastic!
Thank you!
I still need to get some of those plate hangers. That wall is looking fantastic!
Thank you Erica!
You have made some great progress. It’s all so lovely!
Thank you Angela!
Thank you for all your comments! It’s been so much fun!
That sideboard is fabulous! I would love that in my home.
I really love what you do and how you show us how to do this. I like all your ideas.
I love what you did! That plate hanger is also really neat!
I have some old antique plates that I’d love to hang on a wall. I love these plate discs!!! Gonna have to grab a few of those. P.S. I love the pants you have on in that first pic when you were spray painting.
Thanks Jenni. Haha! Those are cats on my leggings and the shirt says “meow” Lol.
