{ office space }

Here are some pics of my office as it looks right now [brace yourself]...

First we have the half orange, half yellow wall & the all orange wall:

side note: orange was my high school color, orange is the main color of the university I work for - love orange, but I don't want my office bleeding orange :] too much of any color is just, well, too much!

Here are some alternate views of the bad lighting, painting and decor in general:

Now for the good news:  I'm allowed to paint my office any color, I can paint the furniture, and pretty much do a full makeover however I'd like [hallelujah!]

Now, for some inspiration . . .

my office is my -home away from home- & where I spend a lot of time.

I'm very excited to get it revamped and feeling more "homey".

what I will need:

1. a rug [check out this one that I found a tutorial on how to make here]

2.  a new lamp/alternate lighting

3.  a table cloth

4. paint [lots of pretty colored paint]

5.  frames

6. vase with flowers

7.  some organizing bins/baskets/shelves

8. a wreath

9. a mirror to make it feel bigger

I feel a trip to IKEA coming on REALLY soon . . .

how is your office decorated? 

I'd love some ideas!
