Home Office and Craft Room and Guest Room

Monday, February 23, 2015

Thank you for sticking with me after my whining complaining about bathroom lighting.  Since we can't find lights that we love within our budget we are going to get the room painted, hang new mirrors, hardware and cornice.  But first we (Nick) have to fill the nail holes and caulk the molding.





I took advantage of the warmer weather this weekend and worked on some spray painting projects.  My creative design juices have been on over drive as of late and I am bouncing around ideas all over the place!  I got cracking of sprucing up my home office aka craft room aka second guest bedroom.  I didn't want to spend a ton as I don't work from home typically and I don't know how long this will get to stay my girly room since our two boys currently share a bedroom.  I threw together a bunch of stuff that we already head and am making over some finds in order to give the room a cohesive look. Hopefully I will have a real sneak peek for you in the next couple of days. 

Do you have a multi purpose room in your house?  Do you have a girly space of your own or a man cave?

 Lisa @ Shine Your Light has a great cornice board tutorial.  I am hoping to use her advise for hanging the new cornice in our bathroom.

Come by and check it out!

    1. Denise-I wish I had that chair! Maybe World Market will sponsor me so that I can get one. I am always looking for chairs in this style but they are hard to come by.

  3. Oh My Goodness, I LOVE the bright pink chair!!! I am out numbered with males in my house too, LOL. I have a small pink and ivory lumbar pillow with cute pink pom pom trim sitting atop a navy sofa in my home office. The navy sofa has white cord detailing all around - my office is my little piece of heaven for this girlie mom & wife :)

  4. Robin that was a sweet surprise to see a link to my cornice at the end of your post - thank you!!!!!! I am loving your design boards, so pretty! Are the curtains the Ikea Sanelas? I did a girl's room with them, using a touch of pink as an accent too, I loved how it came out and wish it was my own room :) The chandelier on your board is gorgeous too, love love love! Thanks for linking up to Best of the Nest, I enjoy your style so much!

    1. Thank you Lisa! Yes, the curtains are Sanelas from IKEA. I can't wait to hang them and the chandy this weekend. I hope to have a full room reveal for the next Best of the Nest.
