Black, white, and pink home office

A few months ago one of those exciting emails popped into our email shortly after I shared this post on my chair makeover(s). An editor from a magazine was asking for more pictures of my office and could she maybe submit it for possible inclusion in a specialty shelter publication?

I was stunned! Of course, I staged {and cleaned up!} the space and sent her some photographs. We did several iterations with color “pops” but sadly, the powers that be decided not to include this room.

Black, white, and pink home office

I can’t admit to even being surprised. I don’t even have a rug in here yet so I kind of didn’t really ever think it would get picked. I can honestly say in this case, it was fun to be “nominated”. There are so many projects I would like to do for this space, I just can’t feel upset that at this stage it wasn’t selected.

I love working in this space. I have a gorgeous lake view out the window and a space where my daughter does her little art projects right next to my desk.

In addition to the workspace in here, we added this IKEA chair as another reading spot for our kids and they have a TV in here where they can watch or play video games away from the rest of the house. With kid at different ages, separation is often essential to my sanity!

Almost everything in here came from IKEA.  I put this room together several years ago when I started my wedding invitation design business {now closed}. I wanted something similar to the Pottery Barn “project” desk so I made up my own with three Expedits and 2 long black desk tops. I have tons of storage for all the paper I use/used with my graphic design business.

The armoire where I store gift wrap and other craft supplies is tucked behind the doors, out of the way.

So even though you won’t see this room when you are flipping through a magazine in the grocery store check-out line, I still love working here each day.

    Du stannar där hon var och går under egen arm samt det är min spinn, och sedan han vinner spelet och hela vägen
    genom de medel ökade inleds spelande. Se nu till att du har fina starka armar med den här,
    hoppas du att du kan freespins plocka upp fler fria bonusar på vägen.
    Så det kommer att visa dig kommer jag att hålla spinn kommer runt.
