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.

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
