THE OFFICE

Finally!  I'm declaring this room finished and am so glad to be able to share it with you today.  You've already seen bits and pieces, but here it is all together.  While working on this post, I realized I had WAY too many photos to show, so today I'll give you the big picture and next week I'll show you more (go here for more details and close-ups).

The hand-painted accent wall is definitely the star of the show!  It ties in beautifully with the gold drum shade that I made and other gold accents around the room.

This is such a multi-purpose room for us.  It's the computer, movie, game, toy, craft, piano, and sleepover room!  Although I wanted it to be stylish, it also had to be very functional and practical. 

We painted the ceiling "Wrought Iron" by Martha Stewart, and the walls are "White" (no kidding!) by Behr.  I also painted the backs of the shelves the same color as the walls in an effort to break up all of the stained wood and lighten the room a bit without repainting all of the woodwork.

And, for a little refresher of where we came from:

Next week I'll give you some more close-ups and details, and tell you about the skirting.
