New Project: Mom's Office

Hi all! Sorry for the lack of posts this past week, we had a lot going on and I had to put my focus elsewhere. We got through and I'm ready to get back on track! With that said, I have an update on an ongoing project and have a new project to add to the list.

Update on the powder room project: Dustin ripped out the tile this morning! Yay! Slowly (and I mean slowly) moving along. He wanted to start on the walls again, but his allergies are already bad and the dust sends him over the edge. Hopefully his allergist can help him out, so we can get those walls ready for some pretty paint!

New project: Mom's office! While hanging out on Christmas, we decided mom needs to girl up her office and make it a happier place to be. The project started with some fabulous inspiration:

Bright new rug from RUGS USA
The minute we saw this rug, we new it was the perfect starting point for her cheery office. RUGS USA is one of my favorite places to get rugs because they are constantly having great specials. We also ordered the same pink boxes from IKEA that my Aunt Mary and I have for our offices:



These boxes are affordable, come in different sizes and come in a few different colors!
For her desk situation, she already has a pretty ghost chair to use, but her desk is too small. We are looking for a table that we can make work for the space. Thinking it could be a potential IKEA hack situation. Something like this table could work, if we spray painted the legs gold:

Affordable IKEA table

Bizchair is a great place to find chairs, especially ghost chairs.
For the light, we fell in love with this World Market pendent:


Paint wise, we are going to try for a barely there pink similar to our office. We think it will be a good way to add an elegant girly touch, plus it will tie the rug, boxes and accessories together.

Alright Mom, your office has been posted about...now we have to make it happen! We will keep you posted as we make progress.

Lots of Love,
