One Room Challenge, Week 5 – A Plant Story

Since this room gets some of the best natural light, it naturally became the plant room. During the holidays, it also pulls double duty—it’s where most of the plants get relocated when Christmas trees take over the rest of the house.

If you’ve missed out on the past One Room Challenge posts, you can check out each one here — week 1, week 2, week 3 and week 4 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.

I have around 75 plants in my house. Yes, you read that right—seventy-five. But I didn’t wake up one day as a full-blown plant mom. I was once the proud owner of a black thumb. If you’ve been tuning in to my new Instagram series, Tuesday Tips Nobody Asked For, I’ll be sharing more about that plant journey in next week’s episode (it’s a tale of trial, error, and one very dramatic fern).

As for now, here are a few of the green roommates currently soaking up the sunshine in this room: a Fiddle Leaf Fig, a few trailing Pothos, a couple of Hoyas, an Audrey Ficus, and about twenty other leafy companions I’ve somehow managed to keep alive.

HEY THERE, I’M MEGAN

A little bit chaotic, a lot creative and dangerously organized. I design with personality, purpose, and just enough edge to make it unforgettable. Happy clients? That’s my favorite part.

Never underestimate the power of a pop of mustard. It’s like sunshine, but sassier.

Tuesday Tips Nobody Asked For: Styling Gallery Walls

Because nothing says “I have my life together” like a curated wall of chaos. I mix things like my kids doodles, a vintage photo of my grandma, the quote “normal people are so weird,” and my late pup’s collar tags—sentimental but make it stylish. Art is personal, and perfection is overrated. Here’s how I make a gallery wall feel like home (and mildly unhinged in the best way).

🛎️ Sunday House Call: Fireplace Edition

Back when we bought this house, we were deep in our barnwood era (weren’t we all?). So naturally, the fireplace got the full rustic treatment. Fast-forward to now, and let’s just say... I’m ready for a little less farm, a little more fresh.

I’m finally gearing up to give it a makeover, but I need your help. Should I just paint it and call it a day? Or do we go bold with vertical slats and give it a whole new vibe?

Drop your opinions, bold ideas, or gentle roasts below—this is a judgment-free renovation zone. Mostly. 📸 @jordanlexuscostello

Week 5 of the One Room Challenge and the dining room plants are thriving—unlike my patience. At least someone’s photosynthesizing around here. 🌿 #oneroomchallenge #orcweek5 #orcat

Introducing Tuesday Tips Nobody Asked For — 
This week: how to fake a cozy, moody vibe without accidentally burning your house down.
Flameless candles. Everywhere. In every corner. Bonus points if you get the ones with a remote and pretend you’re living in a Nancy Meyers movie.

I’ve got flameless tapers, pillars — you name it.
You can set them on timers, so you never have to think about turning them on or off (because let’s be real, I won’t remember).
Plus, I still get to use all my pretty candlesticks without worrying about setting the table — or the house — on fire.
Highly recommend living your best cozy life without the drama. 🔥 (but like... not actually)

It started with big dreams and questionable decisions... and somehow turned into one of my favorite spaces. ✨

Swipe to see the before — a true "it gets worse before it gets better" moment — and the after that made it all worth it.
Proof that a little vision (and a lot of caffeine) can go a long way.
