Remember when I started talking about redesigning my home office like, oh.... 10 months ago? No? That's not fresh in your memory? Shocker! haha!
I had this GRAND plan to remodel and redecorate my office last summer before fall busy season hit. Three months...surely that would be plenty of time, right?
I had contractors come in and paint the formerly creamy yellow walls a bright white, and install thin brick over the red accent wall. I sold a bunch of furniture on Craig's list and painstakingly, piece by piece, ordered new. It was coming together.
Then I met my now fiancé at the beginning of October, wedding season hit, and literally NOTHING else has been accomplished in my life since -- haha! Plus, if you're like me, a room is never really FINISHED. There's always one more thing that you're waiting on.
So a full ten months after I set out to remodel my home office, I'm finally ready to share it with you! I know you've been sitting on the edge of your seat with anticipation this entire time :).
My office used to be red and black -- matching my old branding that I changed 4 years ago now. To see before photos, click here. It's funny how much I LOVED my red and black office when I first decorated it and how much I HATED it 7 years later. After rebranding in 2014 I suddenly felt a deep need to update my office, but I didn't have the money to do so at the time. So I lived with it for a few years longer. Finally I couldn't wait any longer. I had so much fun with this update and I'm THRILLED with how it turned out. More than trying to match the colors of my branding, I wanted to approximate the FEEL of it. I really wanted to brighten up the space and bring in lots of texture and eclectic elements.
I used to avoid this room, and now with the updates, it's a place I love to be again. It feels so much more bright and happy and inviting. I hope my clients feel the same when they come here to meet with me!
So without further ado... here are some photos! I will try my best to share all of my sources at the end of the post!
