command center

one of my goals last summer was to finish up our guest bedroom/office space.  i grossly overestimated the additional time it would take to complete projects while pregnant.  i'm still amazed at how tired i was every. single. day.  thankfully, i was able to finish the room before our little bug arrived.  

i blogged before about our office desk, which was a key piece to this room.  i decided to add a command center above the desk as a way to keep the small office space we have organized while still making the room appealing for guests.

i purchased some black frames from ikea and filled them with an adhesive white board i found at office max, cork board found at jo-ann fabrics, and fabric/ribbon that i put together myself.  

the utensil holder was also purchased from ikea and the mail organizer was found at home goods.

i love how the room turned out, but have yet to get in there to photograph it!  it usually ends up being a good place for clean laundry to get dumped since we don't typically have many guests staying overnight.  although i'm sure boston wouldn't mind having a few more sleeping buddies these days!
