Meet: Sweet Monica from Monica Wants It. I’ve e-known Monica and her amazing DIY talents for quite a while. I’m super excited to ‘show off’ her most recent project. This girl (and her hubby) put in some long hours and hard work and it’s well did an amazing job!
Combined Home Office/Dining Room Makeover
They started with a room which is a combined home office and dining room with dark paneling, wall paper and nothing Monica’s style…
before
They took down the cabinets, removed the dark paneling and stripped old wallpaper…
put the cabinets back, gave them a fresh new look with paint, new countertops and hardware.
in progress…
after
Huge difference from the old dark before…
They painted the walls and installed crown molding. The installed new flooring and swapped out the ceiling fan. Makes you crave a break just reading about it, doesn’t it?
Then Monica worked her decorating magic…
Wow!
My favorite of her DIY decorative accents is this chair…
and framing Restoration Hardware catalog pages…brilliant and so pretty!
The entire room is a beautiful place to entertain, dine, work, relax…I might even sleep in there!
What do you think? It’s so hard to believe it’s the same space. Glam and comfy and so functional! Love it! There is so much more to see! Pop over to see the full original post with more pictures and details at
