Vicki M. Palmer's Profile

I'm sitting here in my spice-colored den with my ivory with woodgrain-topped desk and credenzas, my dark wood floors, my Restoration Hardware surveyor lamp with animal print shade, my favorite artwork and a small library of books and I just cannot get into this makeover. I would have put a deeper color on the walls, changed out the photos and artwork, edited the books down to a reasonable number and added some interesting items. I do like the cameras, but the ones we will display bring back our own memories. I also would have put a real desk in there with drawers and file cabinets. I prefer warmth. I go to my den to think and it has to be "me." The makeover is good for the modern crowd with it's contrast and "checklist" of popular office items, though. I don't hate it...I just prefer warmth.
