Office Redo


As we prepare for baby Ian's arrival, it's time to start thinking about his nursery. When we moved into our house, two of the upstairs bedrooms were decorated in kid-friendly decor. One room was light green with pink butterflies, and the other room was red and white with a baseball theme. Since we found out that we're having a little boy, we coincidentally also decided to use a baseball/sports theme for a nursery. We've been using that room as an office since our black furniture looked nice with the red and white walls, but it was time to move out! I didn't particularly want a "butterfly-themed" office (although the butterflies were very well-painted), so we decided to do a room makeover. I've never actually painted a room before, but fortunately, Jason has painting experience. We decided to go with a creamy color on one wall (window wall) and a tan on the remaining walls. I really love how it turned out, although we will still have a few little touch-ups to do where the two colors meet. Next project...putting together the crib and changer! Here are some before and after pics of the office:
