happy monday everyone! ok...i know it's late in the day but it's still monday! and i said i would reveal my office redo so here we go! are you ready? i am! because i am talking a project that has been put on the back burner for many moons. so it's with great excitement i present my office with a "shady" past...and a now bright looking future!
come on in!
have a seat if you like!
there's a big {smile}on my face right now...
..brought forth by all the little details that have finally come together...
i am sitting in this very spot right here {below} clicking away on my keyboard...
and i've got my week figured out. or @ least the highlights {below}!
as seen from my perch {below}...i kept the "window treatment" simple. i felt it was "key" to not block the view.
a grouping of loved ones {below} keep me company...
and incase i feel the urge to procrastinate on my filing...{which i am doing by the way}...i can always scribble on my "slate" canvas {below}
i set my standards high...
or should i say the STANDARD brand stamp holder is now high on my custom created cubby unit {below}. you might remember the re-purposed window now hard @ work!
open sesame. my second computer {AND printer} i can't let go of has a hidden home now!
last year 'bout this time i showed you this cabinet {below}.
where i painted the orange interior and started the process of sorting + organizing that still continues today. and tomorrow. and so on...
incase you missed it...here's the belly of the beast {below}
and another collage of this-n-that {below}. the crowning glory of the room would have to be the globe light encased in chicken wire. just right for my little hen house! thanks rejuvenation hardware!
2 days. 2 cans of "fast acting stripper" {they lied} + 2 bags of steel wool later and i FINALLY got the black, yellow & drab olive paint off my steel rolling cart. with the added element of vintage yardsticks & office implements....it rolls out from it's hiding spot under my desk to lend a hand when i need a bit more work surface! a real labor...now love!
have you picked up on my fondness for vintage office supplies? old staplers, wire bins, paper punches...the list goes on...love 'em all! not to mention the many metal containers {like this one below}!
is that the phone i hear??
good thing this space is right around the corner from our bedroom. 'cause i have been working on this reveal post since the early hours of the day! i may very well crawl on over there for a nap!
with that being said...i hope this was all worth your time! now i will let the retired time card holder & old school flashcards finish out this post!
got some feedback? would love to hear it! becuse your comments make my day! according to my DON'T FORGET list on my corkboard...i have plans of blogging later in the week. now i best be on my way to figuring out exactly what that might be! thanks so much show & tell friends for sharing this special space with me!
