Sneak Peeks and Revelations

I'm not going to have time today to do any office projects because I have too many work projects to do, but I thought I'd take a second and do a little sneak peak. I've been collecting a little eye candy for my office. First we did the faux bead board and that worked out so well that I thought I'd keep the vibe going. Now I'm the first to admit that "country charm" or "cottage-y" isn't usually the feel I gravitate for. Those who know me know of my dislike of burlap which seems to be the new poster child for all things country. I'm not going that far, though I am seriously considering ONE piece of visible burlap in my office ONLY because it has sewing machines on it. We'll see if I can hack that another day. For today though, here are a few sneak peaks of things that will go on said bead board wall.


I'm blaming too many episodes of American Pickers for my recent purchases. The knob thing will go near my desk and I'll hang my bag on it so that I don't keep losing it. The key is actually a knob, will become a hook as well. The brown-ish hooks are for my hoops and possibly other things. I love that it's a combination of hooks and a hinge.












I also got this desk organizer for Henry. I hope that he can find the bills easier now. I have to admit that I love that he has a real work space in the office area now. It doesn't feel weird or crammed in, it just works. :)














 OK, so those are my reveals, now time for the revelation. This is less about the doll (which I love and made yesterday for Colin) and more about the backdrop. I've been seeing people post these awesome pictures of their stuff and I'm just blown away sometimes. I mean who has this awesome stuff hanging around? I finally asked someone about it. I was expecting something crazy or hard or expensive. Nope, it's just scrap book paper. Now, granted it's probably not as fabulous as the real thing would be, but it's much better than lots of other things that could be lurking back there! It's also super easy to change it based on the item you're photographing. The knobs in picture one are also on paper. Who knew they had scrapbook paper that looked like that? Anyway, that's about all I've got for today. Later Taters! ~Kellie~
