Office Area Update

I previously wrote a post on decorating goals back in January, you can check it out here.  Today, I am going to give an update on how my office/craft room area is coming along. Crossed off on the list below are the items that I have completed so far and what items I still want to add.

Office/Craft Room Area:

• Decide on color scheme
• Add a rug
• Add wall art
• Empty Boxes and organize closets
• Add desk organizers

Here is how the area looks today:

I decided on a color scheme of magenta, kelly green, and hints of yellow because I love bright colors especially in an office or craft room area.  To add these colors in, I added the following items:

• Polka Dot Rug-Urban Outfitters $15 (size 3 x 5)
• DIY Chalkboard Jars-Free, tutorial here
• IKEA Yellow Vase -Free (Find in stores)
• Green Square Metal Container-$1 from Target 
• Spools of Thread Picture- (no longer listed) Life through the Lens Shop
• Hope Street & Love Postcards- $6 (set of 4) Life through the Lens Shop
• Camera & Light Postcards- $5 IKEA Art Card Set (no longer listed)
• Glass Apothecary Jar-$1 from a thrift store (similar) 
• Polka Dot Memo Board-$10 (similar)
• "E" Mug- Gift for Christmas ($8-Anthropologie)
• Pink Chair Cushion-$5 from IKEA (similar)

I plan on eventually making a new cork board with fabric (maybe chevron) and swapping it out for the polka dot board.  I also plan on creating and adding more wall art to the main wall and two side walls. Below is some inspiration I have for this area:
