The office is squared away....

After Bill applied the second coat of drywall mud to all the holes and grooves in the walls, he sanded lightly

and I took it from there. Fortunately, I had a small jar of the paint we used in this room and it was still good. I really like this color...it's called "Coastlight". These small rollers work great for touch-ups like this.

So this morning was spent with my hammer, nails, measuring tape, and pencil as I wanted to get all the pictures up in the office today. Between climbing all over the furniture and the measuring and hammering, I was working up a sweat! I hung the pictures over my desk and in the corner. Here's the before:

and the after:

I just noticed I don't have a good shot of the wall over the futon before I hung the pictures...but here they are all done.

By the time I started the pictures over the desk, I was getting tired. I actually knocked one off the nail and it fell behind the desk! Fortunately, the glass didn't break, but I did have to glue one of the corners of the frame back together. So here is the before:

and the after of that wall:

You probably noticed the curtain at the window; that is a beautiful quilted wall hanging that my sister-in-law made for Bill for his birthday. She does beautiful work and her seams are always perfect. She is an incredible lady. I think I will see if she has any pieces of the star fabric so I can make a small valance for the top of the window. Bill also put up the bin rack support in my shop for me.

Now I just need to put all the bins back in place. So tomorrow, I have six boxes of books I need to get back into the bookcase, so I will see you then! Have a great day!
