office space

every once in awhile i get to pull in a few servants and do an office makeover. these are especially fun when the staffperson has a theme or a vision of what they'd like and it's our challenge to fulfill that concept.

in this case the staffperson has been out of the office for three months. ron incurred a fractured hip when his car was broadsided one evening before christmas on his way home from work. he had already been asking for an office makeover and had several pieces to contribute to an "old world" theme.

an old world theme begs brownish-gold walls. this was a "no budget makeover" so we used several shades of gold left over from different projects. i discovered a new wall treatment using a "woolie" - a rectangular furry wool pad that blends multiple colors together in shades and shadows. you can purchase your own woolie at menards and it's worth the price. kind of made lori and i look like artistic geniuses. we really recommend the woolie and hope ron likes his new office space.


i read a quote from "one month to live" this week that spurs me on: our greatest pleasure in life often comes from serving others, from giving them what no one else can provide in that exact time and place." i hope you enjoy the same pleasure.
