One Room Challenge Week Five

Nov 4

Thank you for visiting Week Five of my One Room Challenge. The ORC is a collaborative blogging event created and trademarked by

Calling It Home

. Twenty design bloggers are redesigning a room over the course of six weekly posts. I'm transforming the entrance hall for my friend, Jane. She wanted an updated, fresh look. Go

to catch up. Next Wednesday, everything will come together, and I'm very excited to see this space finished.

Jane's wanted to add a runner to her stairs for years, and just hasn't gotten around to it. I so understand. That's the beauty of the ORC; things happen.

Jane chose

Karastan's Cobble Ridge

in Driftwood for her runner. Isn't this woven herringbone pattern fantastic? And, the color is such a perfect neutral. It doesn't have undertones that create problems, and it's light, but not too light to be practical. Jane wanted this runner to last, and stairs get lots of wear. The wool and acrylic blend of Cobble Ridge is the perfect option.

National Karastan Month, which takes place through November 9th, includes all luxury Karastan carpets, and features the lowest prices of the season. Go

for a coupon and to learn more. Karastan is also hosting a giveaway, which you can find

I have to include a close up of these rods which provide the perfect finish to the stair runner. Jane and her family love the improvement the runner creates. Working with Karastan has been so easy, and I'm impressed by the quality of their carpet. We've been so pleased that we ordered the area rug from them, too. It should be at Jane's house by the end of the week, and we're excited to see it in place.
