Today we’re talking about how you can upgrade your home office. This was originally discussed on one of my favorite Instagram Live design chats last year. So this is a blog-style version with reference images and the ideas in written format.

Wow, we’ve finally hit the end of the 8-week One Room Challenge for our farm living room. So now it’s the best part – and if this brings you to my blog for the first time, welcome! It’s time for our living room reveal.

In week 7 of the One Room Challenge Farm Living Room, I have good news for both you and me: the painting is NEARLY done! I also got some pieces ordered and in that will be installed in the final week. I’m feeling a bit nervous but excited for what’s left in the final week. And the sofa delivery date has YET to be confirmed. Will we finish in time? 

Week 6’s focus on our One Room Challenge Farm Living Room was to just KEEP painting. And that’s exactly ALL that happened this week and we’re not even done with it!

Week 5 of the One Room Challenge in our farm living room has been a solid week of action! And while we still have a lot of work ahead of us, the progress is adding momentum. To the point where I didn’t even want to stop painting to write this blog post! But it’s good to share this turning point of the “messy middle” to inspire more projects in the future.

Week 4 of the One Room Challenge in our farm living room felt certainly like “the messy middle.” For a moment I couldn’t remember if we’re on week 4 or week 5. It’s that kind of vibe! And Week 4 of our One Room Challenge farm living room was all about paint, paint, and MORE paint. And I’m not done painting. Here’s some updates and thoughts from the week!

Week 3 of the One Room Challenge for our Farm house living room has definitely been a week of planning. Because those who have hired me for interior design know very well – I like to plan before we start bringing product in. And while the first week I shared the initial mood board for the project, I’ve created a materials and color palette mood board this week with updates from the products I’ve been sourcing.
