We're seeing a super cool trend of repurposing closets and using them as desk nooks!

She had such an easy time stenciling her DIY rug that she was able to decorate this rug in an afternoon!

Stencils are an incredible way to transform those dated filing cabinets we all seem to have. Gray, functional, bulky... just blah.
