In our office, I have painted the desk and chair, hung the chandelier (a brass one I spray painted of course), & hung the windows. I ordered some glass knobs (are you surprised?) for the desk, however, they are not the right size so I need t putty & re-drill. I'm not sure if I am going to take that on while E is gone, or wait for his service when he returns from the sunny land of Hilton Head.
I am also working on the window treatments. I am planning on making my own window treatments. This will be a first...I will let you know how it goes. I hope to get a few fabric swatches soon & I will post and beg for your suggestions. If you have any experience making window treatments please feel free to comment any advice. I need all the advice I can get!
I am thinking the window treatments will be similar to these
I hope to hang the drapes above the window, like this picture. I am hoping it makes the ceiling seem taller. I am also going to put some small frames in between the two windows. Now I just have to decide on fabric - that's the difficult part!
Here are some ideas I may implement into my current remodel
I hope they inspire you
Organize the little things
Use every inch of spaceGet creative: shop local home improvement or thrift store for a hollow-core door. Paint it to match your decor, then mount it on painted table legs.

Monopolize your space: dedicate an entire wall to storage & brainstorming
