Office Makeover, in Progress...

Last weekend I got a wild hair and decided to makeover my office. I work from home so I spend a TON of time in this room and something about it just has never been right so I decided I'd do something about it- starting with paint. I admit I was apprehensive to paint over my painted wall pattern I had painted 1.5 years ago, but it was time for a fresh change. {see before here}
I browsed google images as I usually do for images relating to "small home office" "home office makeover" ... then I found this: {cute home office} I loved the soft walls, white anchors, & the pops of color. This will be my inspiration. I went to home depot to pick out some paint & the first swatch I picked up was Behr Paint & Primer - Sliced Cucumber. I loved it. I got it. I painted.

This is what the room looks like now

 

The rest of the plan: New desk, curtains, rug, chairs, art work, & probably some custom UppercaseLiving!...

here are some of my ideas/wants:

{curtains from World Market}

{rug from Urban Outfitters}

{desk from Overstock.com}
