Open me for all the deets + Article links friends ✨.
Everyone has their own sense of style and in the six years I’ve lived here when this office was an actual office…I have NEVER used it. Instead of conforming to what a traditional office is, I started to think about what really would work for me, what I need out of my office and what would make my life easier so that means I moved the office into Paul's office and made my dream lounge/workspace! This is what I came up with and I am totally in love.

I love how the gold bowl matches the new gold wire pendant light. I also love the skate wheels in the bowl as a nod to the husband. - - That little puppy girl Kelly and her widdle wide bulldog paws. So cute! That face and those folds!! Luvs!!! I have to keep reminding myself "I am here for the decor. I am here for the decor." - - This office space is epic! Who sez an office has to have a boring desk and a traditional chair? Who doesn't like sitting on a couch,spread out and all comfy? I likes it! The color. The vibe.And that modular couch. . .it is perfect for that space. The first time I saw a modular couch was on Three Birds Renovations. The thumbnail alone is makes you question if it's possible to break into a house to just move in. Not to rob it, but live there. lol

You’ve inspired me so much and as I wrap up my bedroom remodel, I get so excited to try out some things inspired me to try! From ripping out my baseboards to changing my light fixtures and outlets, I find I have such a passion for this! Can’t wait to start building my tool collection!

Always try steaming first! Most modern wallpaper will come right off in strips and it's very satisfying. If you have older or newsprint paper where the glue and paper were separate, then you'll need scoring and wet it with spray bottle then scrap off with scraper. Depending on your walls, you can just use water.

Being an interior designer I notice people tend to design how they think a room should be used and not how THEY actually use it or what they need it to function for them so I love seeing tools like this that are completely different and actually designed to fit whatever YOUR function for it is. I love this space it looks so relaxing and I need to be relaxed in order to brain storm and I love that this room is duel purpose for that 🖤

I would make a couch table behind the couch. You can make it free standing or attach to the the wall. Basically a table/shelf the goes along the back of the couch. You can store the tech stuff underneath and it'll breath just as well. And you can still holes in the top and put plugs along the top of the shelf for your computer and stuff. And it just looks nice. Just an idea.

I think this whole soft, pale, neutral hotel vibe is going to be HUGE this year. I wanna say it's like the 2020s' equivalent of the glam/luxe trend we saw last decade, but it feels so much less contrived and so much more relaxing with the light neutral tones and linen-y textures. I'm obsessed. can we coin the phrase 'nouveau luxe' here?

A suggestion to fix your book cover , maybe colored pencil would work. Dickblick.com has a 12 ct set of cool and warm greys for under $10. You could test the colors on a paper first and then test on the back inside cover. There is usually a little bit of the cover material inside. That might be the soft texture you need to match the cover. And I love the room!

Interior decorator here. Can confirm, "Wallpaper is a _messy, time consuming job._ _However,_ a super fast way I have found (in my 20 years exp.) is as such: 1) Drop a thick tarp on the floor... 2) Grab a bucket of HOT dish soapy water & some clean OLD facecloths... 3) SOAK a portion of the wall. I'm talking WET the entire portion completely 2'X2' square, if you think it's too much, it's not. It's why you have a tarp down to protect your floors... 4) Allow it to soak about 5 minutes... 5) Soak same section again... 6) Soak _next_ section to be worked on... 7) Get to scraping your wetted spot. Get at it, use a little elbow grease... 8) Take breaks often... 9) Do not _throw_ the scraper _into_ the wall! (no matter how good you'll feel about it at the time.) Once you do that, you may as well tear down the drywall & put up new stuff. Which is _always_ an option for those with money to do so. It's messy too. You're not saving yourself any mess. I've found this works best with prepasted wallpapers. This trick _won't_ work with years of layers of wallpapers (it _might_ help get through _some_ layers though) Also, it doesn't work on anaglyptic wallpapers aka. paintable wallpapers. Hope these tips help you or anybody in all future wallpaper destruction processes. Please no swearing at me for _not_ posting _this_ sooner 😂😂 Best of luck. Have a fantastic day everybody! 🤗🥂 *Hugz from Canada

I'm literally buying these tables and nesting them the same exact way. And I'm also contemplating doing my living room hallway walls the same way. And the craziest coincidentally, I have the painting of the 3 faces and other single line drawing artworks like it. That pillow is everything tho. You always blow my mind! 🥰🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗
