I’m so excited to be sharing a now COMPLETE home tour on the blog this week! I was waiting for the last Style at Home magazine feature to hit stands (featuring Liam’s nursery), so I could finally share Liam’s nursery with you all! I wanted to group all the photos together, and I’m happy to say the wait is now over! (yay that took about a whole year!)

That all being said we also just sold our house!!! (Already dreaming up the next don’t you worry) So in celebration of new beginnings I’m excited to share everything in one place here on the blog!

Today I’m starting off with some shots of my home office! You can also see more over at Style Me Pretty living & Adore Magazine Work Spaces. Enjoy!

  • LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
    Wish I knew how to style shelves like that – wow! x

  • Ilse

    So beautiful! Can I ask what gold spray paint you used for the storage unit?

    • Monika

      I use Rustolium Gold Spray Paint from Home Depot. 🙂

      • Dalia

        Hi Monika,
        Do you use the “metallic” gold spray paint?

  • Kyle

    Beautiful! Love the gold Ikea nesting table! What did you do to the wood insert on the bottom?!

    • Monika

      The bottom insert is actually a white pearl wrap. You can pick some up at any sign shop.

  • Allison

    Love those colorful storage boxes! Where are those from???

    • Monika

      Pink boxes are by Kate Spade 🙂

  • Your office is adorable! I especially love all your ikea hacks. It is inspiring to see an office look classy yet so affordable.

  • Emily

    LOVE.EVERYTHING. Your taste is out of this world, i can’t wait to see what you do to your new house!

    Quick question Where did you find those boxes on your gold shelving unit?? The white ones with the gold hardware. I need em, i need em real bad!

    • Monika

      Hi Emily,

      Thank you for your comment! The white boxes are from Home Sense a couple years ago. I’ve seen them pop up in and there though!

  • Emily

    OOh one other thing- Those ikea shelves you’ve got there, is that a dowel that you have attached to the bottom one? How did you attach it if you don’t mind me asking- i am so not handy. Sorry for the million questions- but its kind of your fault for having the most gorgeous place/ideas in the world!!! 😀

    • Monika

      Yes we attached a dowel 🙂 We just screwed in two hooks and placed it in the hooks! 🙂 Hope that helps.

  • absolutely LOVE this house. I just love the openness & light & airy feel I get from it. definitely going to be my inspiration for my apartment in the fall! Can’t wait to see what you do with your new house!

  • Love love love your office, Monika! Obessed with your custom neon sign – abs fabulous! XX jana bek

  • Love everything! Ive been searching everywhere for thin gold frames. Would you be able to tell me where you found them? Im so in love with the neon too 🙂 Jayde x

    • Monika

      Hi Jayde,

      The gold frames are from a custom framer here in Vancouver. I would suggest going to any custom framer- they will for sure have that frame. Even Michael’s!

  • seetal

    Hi Monika – the mirrors in your bathroom – i’ve searched Home Depot – but didn’t see them – any recs on where i could find these?

    Liam is gorgeous by the way

  • Marissa

    What are the dimensions of the pillows? I have a similar couch I am trying to style and I adore your style! Thanks 🙂

  • Jenny Raulli

    Hi Monika- Where is your desk from? Thanks in advance:)

    • Monika

      Hi Jenny,

      I found my desk at Home Sense a few years back.

      Sorry, that’s not very helpful!

      • Joy Cooper

        ok….found the answer to my question about the desk….any idea what brand it is?

        • Hi Joy,

          I’m not sure what the brand it. I found it at Home Sense 5+ years ago. Sorry that’s not very helpful. Though west elm has a similar looking one.

  • Jennifer

    Such a beautiful space!!

    Can you tell me where you bought the white frames that most of the prints are displayed in?

    Thank you!!

  • Tanya

    I absolutely LOVE your decor! I went to ikea to get those exact shelves but they have so many white ones I couldn’t tell which ones you have! By any chance do u know the dimensions or the thickness of your shelves! I love the ones you have & would like to achieve the same look:)

    Also one more thing! Where did u find that dowel & the hooped screws?! I love that! Did u spray paint it gold as well?:)

    Sorry for all the questions but ur talent is truly amazing<3

  • I am absolutely in love with those curtains! How much were they roughly? I have contacted the seller on Etsy but I know she is waiting on a quote from her seamstress. Thank you so much!

  • Angela

    First off– I absolutely love your style! I follow you on Instagram and saw that you posted a picture of your office shelving and design and in one of the pictures you have a gold shiny (maybe bedazzled) ‘M’ and I was wondering where you came across that? I am so in love with it and hope that I could possibly grab one.

    Thanks

  • Diana

    Hi Monika, What did you do to prep the table for spray paint. I spray painted the same table, but the paint immediately began to easily scratch off 🙁

  • myriane

    Where did you get the deer head? 🙂

  • erika

    where can I get those golden curtain rods?

    • Hi Erika,

      I actually spared the rod gold myself! 🙂

  • Melissa

    Hi Monika-

    Loveeeee this shelving decor!!! Absolutely beautiful and inspiring. I just wanted to ask you if you know the name of the dowel and hooks you used on the shelf to hang your towel and if you don’t mind telling me which size white Hack shelf did you purchase?? Opppps almost forgot where did you get that ampstamp (&) from?? It’s super cute!!

    Thanks doll! Xoxoxo

    • Hi Melissa,

      Thank you for your comment! I don’t remember the names I’m sorry! If you go to IKEA you’ll be able to find them, they are the wooden ones! And the dowel is just a thin wooden pole from Home Depot! 🙂

  • danni

    What color are the walls ?? LOVE this room 🙂

  • Upasana

    Hi,

    I absolutley loved the decor. Can you tell me where did you find the gold frames? They look beautiful, I have been on a look out everywhere but I’m unable to find them. Did u spray paint them gold? Let me know, Thanks much

  • Sarah

    Hi Monika!
    What paint colour did you use? It looks like a soft grey?

    • Hi Sarah,

      The paint color is “dove White” by BM. It’s a pretty pure white.

      Monika

  • Brooke Norton

    Hi Monika! I see in an above comment that you used a Rustolium gold spray paint from HD. Did you use that on your shelf brackets, too? I know they are wood, & I want that shiny gold like you have pictured. Thanks so much!

    • Hi Brooke,

      Yes I used the Rustolium for the gold brackets, which were wood. 🙂 Any time I use gold spray that’s the product I use! 🙂

  • how talented you are! Seriously, putting everything together so beautifully…love that coffee table and racks…and those accessories are top notch!!!
