Going to buy things at .....Iomoi (Via Made By Girl)

Back from the weekend....how was yours?? I'm so glad Summer has pretty much ended (even though it doesn't feel like it where I am) because I'm really looking forward to my Fall clothing! 

On top of that, I've been looking around for some office accessories (mainly pens for my desk) and I finally found some on Iomoi. They carry pens & pencils in all different colors to chic looking matchboxes for your home!  The pens & pencils below are on my "to buy" list, sooo excited!  Iomoi also carries stationery, coasters, custom lucite trays and much more!

Have you bought anything from Iomoi? If so, what did you purchase?

I'm one of the West Elm Winners!

I recently entered my office in the "Picture Your Parsons Desk" contest hosted by West Elm on their Facebook page & today I was told I was one of the winners! Woo hoo!!  The prize consists of a $100 gift certificate to West Elm....how cool is that?  

Well, for all the items I've purchased at their store lately, I would say this PRIZE is well-deserved!  They Loved my office....yay! If you want to see all the PICS of my  home office, just go here.

Great way to start a Monday!

Upcoming DIY project - My Home Office

I've always felt that re-designing a space in your home can bring about inspiration, especially work-related.  So, that is why I've decided to revamp my home office!  After noticing so many pretty Parsons Desks on other blogs,  I decided to go for it!  I took my butt straight to West Elm & went crazy shopping.....told the salesgirl, " 2 desks, 1 lamp, 3 storage bins..." and so on!

Here is my DIY list:

• Painting all the walls white (current color, 'Mercer' by Ralph Lauren Home)
• Adding this Graham & Brown wallpaper to one or two walls
• Removing the yellow and white Urban Outfitters sofa & placing it elsewhere
• De-cluttering the walls and adding less to each area
• Removing all shelves and keeping only a few
• Placing more items into bins and closed storage
• framing some of my press pages & hanging them (finally)!

I'm sure the list will be longer as I move along this DIY (home office) project.....but for now this is where I am at. For those of you who aren't familiar with my home office, you can find photos here.
