An office refresh

A year and a half ago, when we moved into our empty nester house, I decided to use the middle (aka smallest) bedroom for an office. Little did I know that four months later we were in lock down! 

In the process, I painted the walls with some leftover paint, used a rug from our other house, set up my computer and was good to go. However, a few months later I was ready for a little personality! Easiest method was to make a focal wall. Since only one wall in the room was a solid wall, this was not a hard choice! I decided on a stencil as it was quick and cheap. Found a great stencil at Hobby Lobby and, since I wanted a subtle look, decided to use the darker shade of the room wall color and added some clear gloss to make it shiny.




Started stencil working left to right. 


Alternated every other row.

This is what I used to add the 'shine'


Finished!

Added a quick wall arrangement using the black shelf from before, two tin ceiling tiles I took from my work office, plus wreath and cool wood thing I found at a vintage store.

Thanks for visiting!
