Man oh man I would really love to see these photos! I am in the midst of transforming my old oak Hutch and its surroundings into a home office…and it looks sooooo pretty! I’ve opened this page in both Firefox and Google chrome but to no avail.. pictures are just blacked out hazard signs :(

Hi CG.
I am searching your blog for inspiration (it’s everywhere, BTW!) to make my newly claimed home-office area into feminine and fabulous. I have three young boys (ages 4, 3, and 1) so I have to work with what I’ve got for now!!
Thanks for the tip on buying a modern white desk and accenting with colors from my rug. For now, I am going to utilize a beautiful, tall, old Oak “Zinc Sink” hutch, (probably from the 1900′s?), which has been sitting in the back of the family room just waiting for something special. It has loads of drawers, shelves and secret compartments, but has been used as a liquor cabinet, diaper-changing table, toy chest and catch-call since we acquired it five years ago.
Several of the blog archives have blacked-out spaces where your beautiful photos should be. Any idea how I can make the proper photos appear?
Many thanks
Christine

Such a great post! Your desk is lovely and I think I would work at it all day and night. Can't wait for the tutorial on how you painted the top. Looks AMAZING!
