Marker Girl My Office Makeover – Part 3 The Finishing Touches
My final installment of my office makeover is all about those finishing touches. This picture below was something I wanted to show in a single photo all of my very favorite things around my office.
The decoration started with the prints I found. As soon as I saw them I knew they were meant for my office. Society 6 – Polka Rain by Karen Hofstetter . I had saved a remanent of Barbara Barry’s BBS Chairs fabric from Kravet. I opted to frame it. My other favorite things are accessories from Kate Spade and Jonathan Adler, my finds of funs books with inspiring titles, and a few fuchsia pink accessories. I am obsessed with notebooks they are always out and around the office.
My rug was a find at World Market from their indoor outdoor collection this past summer. I customized the slip cover chairs from ikea with monogramming for Marker Girl.
Then in the corner I created a little seating area using a simple slipcover chair with a custom table I had made locally from Custom Creations. The appliqué pillow is from lace field designs and the floor lamp from West Elm. I embellished the lamp with ribbon giving it a marker feel. I had the giclee painting before, it is a favorite I have had for a few years so I made sure to incorporate it in the room.
That is my office a real fun hi/low design project for me… Stayed for more Marker Girl Makeover projects I will be featuring soon!
Here is Part 1 and Part 2 in case you missed them.
Happy Everything!

I love it, so bright and pretty !
Thanks Tammy!
Beautiful office! I am in the process of designing my craft room with the IKEA Besta system. I went to the Houston store last week but was informed that they were changing the Besta line and did not have the Vassbo doors I needed and their new pieces wouldn’t be out until April. I was bummed out but then I found your blog! I am now glad they didn’t have the doors because I much prefer your Ikea Hack!!! I was wondering if you used the 50″ or 75″ shelf unit with the small extension in your design?
Thanks!
Glad this was helpful I used the 75″
