Here’s a sneak peek at what’s going on with my office these days.
The rug arrived several weeks ago, and I love it! And so does Walter 
It is so plush and cushy underfoot!
The painting is also done. The color I chose was Behr’s Pyramid Gold. We painted the ceiling this time…something that I don’t normally do (I usually keep it white). It’s taken some getting used to, but I do think the color is quite beautiful. It’s the one on the bottom right in this photo:
I purchased some Kvartal hardware, along with some curtain panels from our favorite Swedish super store, which Tory and I used to to create a sliding curtain that “hides” our treadmill when it’s not in use (which is all too often, by the way!).
I made a few purchases, including this gorgeous pendant light and this desk chair from Overstock:
We stained and hung some shelves.
And painted the bookshelf:
And I started to reupholster my “dumpster” chair:
See that letterpress print in the background? Cute, right? I got it on Etsy (where else?), and it’s from Eight Hour Day, who has the cutest packaging I’ve ever seen!
Here is the fabric I chose (from Joann’s in-store) for the chair:
We also checked out the Habitat for Humanity ReStore in our area in for the first time a few weeks ago. Have you guys heard of these? The one near us is a giant warehouse full of leftover building supplies – paint, furniture, windows, you name it! And while we didn’t find anything for the office specifically, I spotted this awesome mirror for 5 bucks!
It is now hanging in our bathroom (where it looks quite at home), and the boring black one that was in the bathroom before got a paint update and was moved into the office.
It’s coming right along! I will be sharing more of the reupholstering process (and oh, is it a process!), soon!
