@@YoungLadyBusiness Kayla unfortunately we can’t really appreciate the vintage lamp because of the black cloth covering it. Your eye is automatically drawn there. I too love your styling of the built in. Also, you need a little black on the window side of the room to pull it all together. Completely cover your bench with different styles of pillows with and a throw added in with touches of black throughout the pattern. I hear Marcus not caring about facing the brick wall. It would be nice to get a large rug and center the desk like someone previously said. But as you said, it would hinder the flow of traffic through the room. Black and white blue prints would be a really nice touch. Make sure you use more than one. There’s a company out there where you can send them a picture and they can blow it up as large as you’d like. Another great job Kayla and Marcus. 👍🏾👍🏾

The office turned out Amazing. Trial and error is a great way to learn new skills. 👌 Straight pins would have been a huge help with the lamp shade project. Please ensure that the fabric used is flame retardant as some bulbs can generate enough heat to spark a fire. If Marcus actually works all day at the desk, a mirror on the brick would be a great addition to get a view of the outdoors and break the boredom of the workday. The chair is amazing and looks comfy and scotchgaurd is a great addition.

Hi Kayla! Love the way the office came out. I think your idea with the blueprints is such a unique touch. I’d choose the blueprints that show the exterior of your home in your entryway and then add each of the other blueprints throughout your home in the common areas and maybe in a guest room. I also like just the brick alone so I know it’s a tough decision but go with your gut and it’ll be fine. I think you should bleach the curtains or if you decide to go with a dark color like gray it could really make that area pop. No rug no problem! The floors are beautiful!!!

I also agree with adding the blue prints to the wall over the desk but leave it its original blue color with a black frame. It will look beautiful. The runner in front of the window seat is a great idea. Changing the curtains is a good idea too. Again, I would love to see a pop of carmel added to the space in the curtains (or window shades) as well. And last but not least, the lamp shade is a “no” in my opinion. I personally think the scale of it doesn’t fit the space well. Love you guys and keep up the great work!!
