Office Makeover Part 1

Remember when Freckles Chick put tons of time into helping me figure out what to do with our home office? First things first, I needed to find a chair. And while my first thought was to road trip to Utah to get the IKEA chair FC suggested, I thought there might be a way to get that white slipcovered chair without risking my life to an ice storm on I-80.

You'll see the very finished product when I finally take good pictures of the sort-of finished office.
