Comfy on the backside...easy on the eyes!![/caption]So this will be the second time we have remodeled our office...it is true that our own homes (and now our office) are our personal "experiments"...but two versions in one year is alot even for us!! The reality is that the first spot was spacious...but it was right smack-dab-in-the-middle of the guest area in Eryn's home. So as we began to see that we would be using this space alot, we began to make plans for a redo. And to be completely honest, we never really finished that first office...we just got busy with "real jobs" and never got back to our space, which always drove us crazy!!
So, when we decided to relocate to another area of Eryn's home, we promised ourselves one main thing...WE WOULD FINISH IT THIS TIME!!!! And we are well on our way!! Here are a few sneak peaks of the progress!!

Fabulous new rug for our desk area!![/caption]Our original plan was to go with a neutral scheme and add shots of pink and orange....we came up with an inspiration board and began finalizing our plan. But, I couldn't bring myself to begin placing orders, because something just didn't feel right. The neutral pieces were perfect...but the pops of pink and orange??? Although very fun, neither of us really "do" pink or orange much!! And so when I came across the fun art deco inspired rug with great blues and teals and shots of orange/yellow...I knew it had "Amanda and Eryn" written all over it!! After that the details have fallen into place easily!! Just a couple more items to be put in place and you can see it all!!!!!!!!!! Stay tuned!

Being organized is something I strive for as a busy wife, mother, and small business owner. But, organizing my gift wrap items was not high on the to-do list! Until, I saw this neat idea.
