office redo {inspiration board}

If you follow me on instagram, you've seen that I've been working on our home office. It's a hard room to tackle because it's our mudroom, office, craft room, and much to my annoyance...our catch-all {here are some photos from a past post}.

I've been stalking Homegoods, garage sales, Goodwill, and countless blogs since September, trying to figure out what I want it to look like...all while being extremely budget conscious.

The photos above shows the look I'm going for, lots of white and grey with details of both silver and bronzy gold. The light blue walls will keep it fresh, and a few light pink accessories that I can switch out with the seasons will bring in a little femininity {which I've tried to keep away from the rest of the house}.

I'd love for it to not only be my office, where I can work on my book and blog, but also a place where the older kids can close the door and do homework or read {away from the crazy little kids who don't understand the concept of quiet!}.

We started emptying out the room this past weekend while Ben was out of town...and surprised him by painting it {I obviously had some little helpers}. I can't wait to show you how it looks once it's done. I still have a ways to go, but it's really coming together!
