One Room Challenge, Week 4 – An Art Story

Art is my thing. I love finding it, supporting the people who make it, and covering my walls with it. I’ll take a great piece of art over a photo any day.

If you’ve missed out on the past One Room Challenge posts, you can check out each one here — week 1, week 2 and week 3. And if you’re new here, the One Room Challenge is:

The One Room Challenge® is a biannual event every spring and fall. Everyone with a blog or Instagram account is welcome to join the fun as a Guest Participant by registering for the event with the room or space you plan to transform. Registration typically opens about a month prior to the event. Every Wednesday during the event, which lasts eight weeks, Guest Participants link their weekly project updates on this site, and spectators and participants can easily follow along by browsing the linkup page.

This week’s photos are a little moodier than usual — I had to take them at night because, as usual, the days slipped away from me. On the bright side, one of my favorite things lately is swapping out whatever came in a frame for art I actually like.

Consider this your warning: dry humor ahead. Proceed accordingly.


Hot tip: If your frame doesn’t have glass, a layer of Mod Podge can fake that vintage, matte finish like a pro. Bonus tip: The best glass is non-reflective, and you’ll usually find it hiding in the world’s ugliest thrifted frames. Don’t let bad taste fool you — the glass might be a gem.

Time for a little before + after ➡️We never actually use this foyer... but she still deserved a moment.Sure, no one walks in this way—but if they did? They’d be greeted by a glow-up. No more sad lighting or blank walls. Just a little style statement that says, “yes, I’m dramatic—even in the unused corners.”Not every space has to work hard. Some just get to be pretty.#FoyerGlowUp #BeforeAndAfter #FreemanDigs

Design Mistake Confessional: I didn’t build my fridge into a cabinet. And now I see it… every day. Sticking out. Mocking me. Being all “standard” when I could’ve had “built-in beauty.”Was it a budget thing? A timeline thing? A brain fog thing? Yes.Would I change it if I could? Also yes.Do I whisper “someday” when I walk past it? Every. Single. Time.Learn from me: if you’re renovating, frame in your fridge. Give it a little cozy nook. Let it feel important. Because once it’s in, it’s staying. Forever.What do you think? 👇👇#FreemanDigs #sundayhousecall

I didn’t plan to go pink—she just eased in. One pillow, then chairs, then curtains, then walls... and suddenly she had a seat at the table. Literally.#FreemanDigs #ColorStory

She’s DONE. What started as a project to help me heal turned into one of my favorite rooms in the house. Cozy, moody, a little dramatic (just like me) — and officially finished. 💙Check out the reel to see how far this dining room has come — and yes, that blue really is the same color in every shot. Sort of. 😉#OneRoomChallenge #ApartmentTherapy #ORCAT #FreemanDigs
