Welcome to week 5 of the One Room Challenge, sponsored by media partner Apartment Therapy. I’ve been working on my kitchen renovation and it has been a grueling, and unexciting, five weeks. We’ve completed a lot of behind the scene work which is never as exciting, or pretty.
You can catch up on the previous week’s progress here:

Here’s the progress we made this week:
- Pulled up the old wood floors
- Leveled the floors
- Installed cement board underlayment
- Built the range hood cover
- Start removing the countertop over the dishwasher
- Recess the dishwasher so we can add a 3/4″ dishwasher panel
The best part is that…
We found the perfect door! From FB Marketplace! For $100!
I found an amazing *unicorn* door for only…. $100! The door is an irregular size, 30″x90″ and has 12 panels, exactly what I wanted. The listing even included the hardware and handle 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 The door exceeds my wildest dreams and we had to get real creative in getting it home 😂
This week is crunch time.
And I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. I think we can pull it off, but I know it will come down to the last minute.
Lots of long nights ahead so please send POSITIVE VIBES ONLY!!!
See you guys next week and be sure to follow along on instagram (@tiarrahamlett)
Tiarra!
