Organization is key to any great office space—create a piece for multiple tasks, as Lara did with this shelf and wrapping station dowel. Painted in Beauti-Tone's Loving It.
Choose paints and fabrics in the iconic shades
of the natural world: greys and blues capture the earth and sky, greens speak of plant life, and floral fabrics offer immortal bouquets.
Fabrics, from left to right: Rustic Dune sky, Lucky Leaf raspberry, Lucky Leaf grasshopper, Strie Stripe lilac. Fabric underneath is Silk Pleat platinum.
The paint colours, on the right are first 1012 Pussy Willow and second 1015 Frog Prince. Underneath, there is from top D103 Loving It, middle 1020 Sweet Pea and bottom c019 Stylist.
