my office
When you walk in the front of our home, to the right is this room. It started as my office, then we switched it to be Ryan’s office, then a sitting room and now back to my office {can you tell we’re a little fickle about decorating?}
Anyway, here is the room when we first moved into our home.
And, after hours of painting and a little fluffing, here it is now.
I wrote about the start of the project here & about the chalkboard wall here.
The self-induced motivation seemed to do the trick {albeit a few hours late}.
I’m working on a tutorial for the painted ‘wallpaper’ so stay tuned for that.
Anything you want more details on? I’d love to share … ask away and I’ll post answers this week.

So beautiful! I was wondering what color you used on the dresser in your office? I have an old bookcase I would like to paint the same color. Thanks for sharing!

Saw all of your great dressers, do you use those for scrapbook supplies. Looking or something great to put all that stuff in that’s not plastic……would love to hear your thoughts.

I just came across your blog via Simply Seleta. I love everything you do! I just got done looking at your shop and I will be ordering prints soon
Do you do customized orders? I love the wording you have on the chalkboard in your office and I would love to order a print that says that!

WOW. I have been looking at the cost of stencils and they are crazy expensive. I love this idea and it is so easy to do. I am going home and starting to stencil!
