Makeover: Home Office

8 Simple Steps to Western Office Chic

  1. Paint one wall floor-to-ceiling with chalkboard paint. The handy giant notepad makes an all-white room feel cozier.
  2. Cover the other walls in a surreal birch forest-inspired wallpaper to add texture.
  3. Wrap a beat-up filing cabinet in the same paper to make the room feel larger.
  4. Add slatted blinds to play up the woodsy feel.
  5. Roll out a dappled grey cow skin rug for warmth.
  6. Layer in vintage pieces for rustic character.
  7. Choose a show-stopping piece of furniture, like our vintage chair made from cow horns.
  8. Drive home a rustic cowboy theme with fallen antlers, cowboy boots, rodeo postcards and lots of textured wood.
