Hubby's New Office

OK, time for the big unveiling. Hope you're not expecting too much! It's as done as it's going to get for now. Peter is happy with it, so I'm happy with it. Now, he has a space where he can really spread out & work AND he has a TV in there too, so he can stay caught up on all the financial news. All the furniture pieces came together really well & I do like how it came out. It's nothing fancy, but is a very workable office now. You can see the $1.00 window treatment that I found. It's a large valance and I made it work with rings. Found that rod last year for $5 at a yardsale, so I was set & only had to buy brackets & rings. This first pic is probably the truest colorwise on the paint. Paint color is Magellan by Kilz (from Walmart). He loves deep blue.

The TV cabinet really looks so much better painted chocolate brown. I painted the hardware on this piece too with the Sophisticated Finishes. For a quick peek back to the before on these pieces, click here. My hubby already had these 2 white lamps and they work well in here too. Like I said, this is not a fancy office, but it works well for him.
Closeup of the window treatment. I don't absolutely love it, but for the price, it will do just fine for now, since it was only $1.00. At least it adds some fabric to the window.It's a large valance and I made it work with rings. Found that rod last year for $5 at a yardsale, so I was set & only had to buy brackets & rings.
I gave you a sneak peek of the bookcase already & it really did get a huge improvement with paint & moldings. I found that cute Alabama Bear Bryant tray from Ebay. That's my first Alabama football memorabilia that I've found so far. I'll need a few more things for the walls, but will take my time finding them. I'm happy it is finished this far.
And the old desk will serve as a credenza. Told you he doesn't mind clutter, so you are seeing it as it is...mess and all. He doesn't want me messin' with his office!
I put this extra chair in here & used some leftover paisley fabric from the master bedroom. It works well in here too is a good complement to the stripe on the window treatment.

Hope you enjoyed the make-over. I'm glad it is DONE! My hubby is really enjoying his new office space and loves having the TV in there. Check out the post below for the weekend of fun with the "B" girls that I told you about last week. We had a lot of fun!

Peggy, if you come back & see this, email me & I will be glad to show you how to change your background. I don't see a blog link or email for you on your profile.
