We love a great collaboration. So when one of our favorite home lines popped up at Michaels, we took the opportunity to give Shabby Chic makeovers around the office.Even the most decorated to-a-T home has some boring little secrets -- bland, office-grade desk accessories that even the most design-obsessed amongst us can forget to address. And no, we're not saying that every yellow post-it note should be trashed, along with plain black pens. But we do love the opportunity for a quick, light-on-the-wallet makeover. Especially when it comes to the things you see every day.

Enter the genius Treasures by Shabby Chic at Michaels. A collection of goodies from journals to clothespins that have the signature Shabby Chic look. Our photo editor Jolie Novak tried these sweet products out in her home office. Use the slider tool to see the before and after.
First up: The journal goes from blah to sweet. Wouldn't you be more likely to record daily events if your diary was this cute?
A pen you'll actually want to carry around.
Sticky notes that are less of an eyesore, more like decoration.
What do you say -- would you attempt a quickie desk makeover with these pieces? Or would you rather stick with classic office pieces? Weigh in on Facebook!
