I started some new fun client work this weekend! But those are hush, hush for now! You will see more on that as I start working on them!
While I am in "Home Office" mode, I thought I would go ahead and share my sister's recent home office makeover that she did in her home. It is very different than my office, but it is also used in a very different way. I wish I could have a pretty office like this and a craft room that gets all messy with projects! See the beginnings of my home office re-do here and here.

My sister really came up with the plan and vision of this space all on her own. But I did help her source all of the pieces for the space.
Like me, she has always loved grasscloth wallpaper. So the design of the space really started with that. She decided to add board and batten on the lower part of the walls to add architectural interest to the space and to leave a smaller area for the wallpaper. We decided to have the board and batten reach a little higher than half way up the wall. Because they have tall ceilings in the space, it works better with the scale to have that be taller.
This starburst mirror from Joss & Main is probably my favorite thing in the room!
All of the furniture is from the same collection from Home Decorator's Collection.
I love this corbel. It was one of the very first accessories we picked out for the space. It is an antique corbel, probably out of an old house or something. But it works perfectly as a bookend. She purchased this at the same local shop we purchased the wallpaper from -- Carmel Design.
They have a really cute shop in the Nora area off of 86th Street. If you are ever out that way, stop in!
