Tony's Downstairs Office

I managed to get Tony's new office set up while he was away. (Yes! Goal accomplished!)

...and I haven't bragged about it until now, so that I could surprise him. (SO hard.)

Anthony helped me move Tony's desk downstairs. It looks so much better now...not covered with junk.

...and I pulled the bookshelf out of the dining room, moved all of those books to a crappy temporary one, and actually arranged all of the hubby's textbooks. ....it also provides a great place to keep his toys helicopters. (You have to have some kind of fun thing to do with kids when they come interrupt your studying.)

I framed Tony's commissioning document and some cool paintings he brought back from Peru last summer.

...and some old submarine pictures. I repainted a couple of the more hideous frames they came in. (I already had the green spraypaint - score.)

The bench is from Target...for visiting rears. I'm trying to convince the kids that it is never ever to be relocated...ever....so stop moving it.

I even hung up the wipe board. 

What I didn't hang up?....doors.

That's just beyond my skill level right now.

Since Tony is heading to Hawaii soon, it will probably be a few weeks before his office sees much use (...by him, Sofia and I both use it plenty.) Still, it's a pretty big check on my (long, long) list of house things that need doing. :)
