an extreme "office" makeover!

This past week, after months of talking about giving our office space a new look, we finally DID it! And all in one day, too! I suppose I can't really prove that this is an extreme makeover without some horrid "before" pictures, but I dumbly didn't take any, so a description will have to do:

Before : pink floofy carpet
After : neutral berber carpet

Before : 1 white wall, 1 salmon textured wall with aztec-inspired border, 1 solid salmon wall, 1 blue floral-stripe wallpapered wall (and NO, it was not originally decorated by me...)
After : 4 MATCHING walls in a neutral, calming slate blue-gray

Before : blue plastic mini-blinds
After : jute roman shades with navy linen curtains

Before : a room that we dreaded working in
Now : a room that we LOVE working in, and one that is conducive to everything we do!

It's still a bit sparse, as we haven't yet added the shelving and wall grouping we've got planned, but it's definitely so much better!
