We're about to make some big changes around the J&K household. We've been here for well over 3 years and are looking forward to switching things up. My sister and I have been working out of my home together for a few months now - she's been working in the breakfast nook while I work out of my office - but we'd like to be a little closer to each other. We're also looking to hire a part-time designer or paid intern soon (if you live in Oklahoma and are interested let me know!) so we need more space. So with Jeremy's suggesting we are moving the office into our HUGE master bedroom and our bedroom into the smaller office. Then we're converting our guest bedroom into a studio for photo shoots and making music (something Jeremy and I are going to dive into come the new year).
House to-dos:
• Switch office / master bedroom (furniture / closets / window treatments)
• Store guest bed in garage
• Paint chalkboard wall in the new studio space
• Paint living room black (I'm trying not to chicken out on this one)
• Hang door to basement
Wish me luck!
That's exciting! I LOVE re-arranging! Before I was so pregnant I was notorious for randomly re-arranging a while room overnight or while Nate was out and then yelling "SURPRISE" when he came back. LOL.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds pretty exciting. Change is good. Good luck :)
ReplyDeleteAnd if you guys start making music together I don't think I'll be be able to handle the cute.
Exciting! We are also constantly switching around the rooms in our house as circumstances change, it's a great way to make your house work for you
ReplyDeleteyou make me want to do a switerroo too. Can't wait to see if you recreate each room in the new space, or change things up.
ReplyDeletegood luck. i always take on projects like this on my breaks. this is what happens if you stay home;)
ReplyDeletei'm also working on my office.
Oh, I can't wait to see the change! Good luck (and remember, if you dislike the black paint, you can always paint over it)!
ReplyDeleteSwitching rooms and rearranging everything is one of my favourite things to do. Somehow it always feels like a fresh new start afterwards. And I love fresh new starts. Good luck with this little project. I look forward to seeing the results.
ReplyDeleteWhat an exciting endeavor! I'm so glad your business has built to this point! I can't wait to see the results of the switch.
ReplyDeleteAhh!! I'm excited about the intern part!!
ReplyDeleteWould it be too unacceptable to drop out of school early to move to Oklahoma? This would be my DREAM job!
that is so exciting!! switching things around is so fun and it sounds like it will be a lovely switch for bigger and better things in the new year!
ReplyDeleteyour home is so gorgeous.

I read the above post before this one and as soon as I saw the chalkboard wall I was like SHE SWITCHED ROOMS! I love this idea... Honestly my husband and I do two things in the bedroom... sleep and well... you know. Ok so we watch TV in there too, sometimes but otherwise it's just a place to lay our head and store our clothing. I always wonder why people need SUCH huge master bedrooms. Maybe when I have kids I'll understand but the rest of the house is where I want to live. I think your plans sound awesome and right on point! Can't wait to see the transformation!
ReplyDeleteWe switched our home office and our bedroom recently too! It makes *so much* more sense this way, I don't know what we were thinking with the original set-up. Looks like your switcheroo turned out awesome, too! Yay for working from the home. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the grey on the bedroom come office walls!
