"Bring Your Readers to Work Day . . . "
Greetings,
I've been in and out of the office so much these last few weeks . . . between traveling for High Point Market, Blogfest (which I still need to report on . . . sorry!), working here in San Francisco - and with several projects on the east coast . . . it's always great to know I'm settled back in my bright, little office - for at least a week or so! I moved into this space almost exactly a year ago. And I recall saying then that I would post pictures once everything was done.
And, no. It's not like it has taken a year to finish the office. It's just taken that long to finish it. And photograph it. And put together a post here . . . lol.
And since I know y'all love a good before and after story . . . .
Let's cast our collective memories back a year ago . . .
And recall those first images that I posted on Facebook about the new office space . . .
Yep. This is what we started with.
Beautiful vintage hardwood floors.
A great view of the park.
Glorious morning light.
A functioning fireplace.
And a little room to grow . . . .
And now, let's just leap to the present.
You may recognize some of those tartan chairs from our holiday shoot for Rue Magazine a few years back. Well, they wandered into the office a few months ago - and are just happy as clams to be here.
Everyone has their morning ritual. Around here, it involves coffee.
And I can assure you - my desk is rarely this clean - lol.
For those of you interested in those jaunty little tartan dressers. They're basically from IKEA. And then painted black. With bevelled mirrored tops. And tartan wallpapered drawer fronts.
Sometimes you just need a little weekend project. lol.
Our sample and catalogue library. And the every-useful work table.
Just a small portion of our design books.
Thanks for stopping by,
Scot

Yes! We photographed this long before my One Kings Lane sale . . . and a few items were included in that offering.
Glad to know that my little treasures have found their way to a new home.
Cheers,
Scot
I love what you've done to the place!
Thank you for sharing your secret for the Tartan chests...a great project. I am pinning that now for a future project.
Have a great week!

I am in awe and admiration for what you have created. I love that it reflects you so much and yet looks like a space that inspires great ideas for future spaces.
Well done!!!!
