Home office renovations, nonsense and garden things!

Hi all! Just an update.. We just finished moving into our new house and I am happy to announce that I now have a home office/workshop!! (which I am in love with) Also just started school again so updates will be few, but hopefully interesting :)
Soldering station!

Lots of beautiful, natural light!


My very first attempt at Illustrator.. can you guess what it is? :-)
..And I have the perfect place for it! (small picture on the very right.. original artwork by my mom!) Check out her work!

Another view! :)

Jewelry display wall! Easily customizable when you need to add more rows (made with screw in wall hooks and cheap 20 gauge wire)!

One of our dogs Honey, admiring the newly planted Hostas


Jalepeno poppers, using ingredients from the garden! Yumm

And my very favorite, fried green tomatoes.. fresh from the garden! This is what you do when you have a garden full of green tomatoes


Garden!!.. consisting of basil, spicy oregano, onions, cilantro, jalapenos, green beans, squash, pumpkin, cucumber, tomatoes, 2 kinds of lavender, and baby lettuce!

Very first of the garden green beans!!!!


Home office renovation!! BEFORE: Pic taken  just after peeling stubborn tinkerbell wallpaper from the walls.....
Now what color to choose??? Sunflower yellow? Aqua? Light blue??

Serene light blue it is! 3 light walls with one slightly darker accent wall.


And Voila! 3 days later and the room is ready for decorating!.. loving this color, very calm :)
Time to get everything set up ! (See very first pic for final results)
