Hello and happy Saturday. Hope everyone is doing well, all things considered. Boy with the state of our world, it makes me want to hunker down and not leave my house for the next five months:) I pretty much am either in my office, home or market. Really don’t go anywhere else, what a surreal change in lifestyle and day to day living.
It will make my appreciation in the future for the simplest things like a weekend getaway or a trip to the NY flower market much more meaningful. As an eternal optimist, I try to find the positive and beauty in everything, a skill that has particularly come in handy during this past year. One thing I wanted to do in our new warehouse is create an office and environment that I would be excited and anticipate arriving to every day and I am thrilled to say that is happening.
I was lucky enough to work withPaul Montgomery Studios and their less expensive line, Mural Sourcesto create the prettiest chinoiserie panels in the most beautiful fresh green. Some of you might be surprised I didn’t go with blue but I was seeing the soft green and allowing the blue/white accents to pop against the beautiful green walls.
Wow, did they deliver! This room was super nondescript, actually quite ugly if i am to be honest. We are not there yet so I am not sharing a picture of the fully completed room as we still need to change the horrible black ceiling, waiting for a new desk, and some accessories but here is “in progress” post of how its coming along.
Needless to say I am thrilled with how it is unfolding and hopefully in a few weeks I will share the full reveal. Once our warehouse recovers from the Christmas craziness, we will tidy things up and hopefully offer a tour of that as well, maybe even a video tour if I can figure out how to do it. So stay tuned but in the meantime here is how things are shaping up as of late-

Watching Kevin prep with the paper makes me realize it was a perfect choice
Love it!
And so it begins….
And sure enough it started to really look like “something”
Starting to look like the dream office that was alive in my head for the last year or two:)
Hoping to have the office done in the next two weeks so will be sure to share the final reveal when it’s ready for it’s close up. Hope everyone is well and safe. Thanks for stopping in, until next time……..
I cannot wait to see. Can you share how to order the furniture you have the flowers on? I love! Also, would you share the paint color on your walls? Would love to use this color! Cannot wait to see the final pictures!
It looks beautiful already. What a good use of your time during this awful pandemic! I am also working on projects so I can look back(soon, I hope) and say that my time was productive.
It’s so beautiful. You will love spending time in your office and people will love visiting you there. I have a mural of the Italian countryside in my laundry room because I knew I would be in there very often and there is no window.
The work environment should be a happy place that has a warm and inviting feel to it. After all, many of us do spend a great deal of time throughout the day in that environment, so why not make it beautiful. I’m retired now, but, when I was teaching,
I was in the same classroom for over 20 years. I covered my bulletin boards with wallpaper ( champagne color with a moire satin ribbon design) that was in my living room at home. I felt right at home and happy and so were the students !
Beautiful beginnings, Tina! My office sports some of your “pretties” too! Good luck as you pull it all together. We would love a tour of the entire place, to be sure.

What’s the name of the mural/wallpaper you are hanging?
Thank you!
Did you hang it on muslin, so it can be removed and reused?
