Office Re-Do

I can actually say I look forward to going in the office to work... my home office that is. How can I not?

Office "Re-do"

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was thinking of doing a complete re-design of my home office. So this week my goal is to get the office all sorted through (purge, purge purge!) so in the next few weeks I can start ordering new office furniture.

I have decided to bite the bullet and buy the Pottery Barn desk that I love. This is huge for me because I have never bought anything from PB (even though I love their stuff) just for the principle that I think they are overpriced. But I love the desk, and it is supposed to be very durable, so I think I am going to do it.
Last year when we moved in, Matt put french doors into my office. The other wall has a door entry (we still can't figure out why the builder did this) so Matt is going to close off the door with drywall, we are going to paint the whole office and then along one wall I am going to buy this from Ikea. It matches the bookshelves I bought last year so it should look real nice.
I'll take pictures along the way. I am sure the room will look totally different once we are done. My goal date to be finished by Thanksgiving. Keep your fingers crossed that it will happen.
