I’m In, I’m In, I’m In!! Home Sweet Office

August 28, 2015 by Leah Leave a Comment

In May I found out I’d be working from home, which has turned out to be a great thing and I feel like a more productive human being now.  The challenge was to create a space that wouldn’t interfere with our home life and would also be peaceful and inspiring.  We had this crappy little room that ended up being the perfect size and place since it has a separate entrance off the patio.  Rob worked so hard to get this together for me and here’s what it looks like now!

Rob built a cabinet and shelving unit to house and hide the water heater.  This also adds extra storage for supplies, etc.

On one side of the room where there used to be some shelves and a dirty old window, I wanted a cozy corner for when I don’t feel like being glued to the desk.  This is the perfect chair to curl up with the laptop.

It’s so exciting to have this project finished because I was so worried about feeling displaced and not being able to separate work and home life.  Now it won’t be an issue anymore and this is a quiet spot to concentrate and get stuff done.  It took a lot of work and as always with this house, there were problems that arose which we weren’t expecting, but all in all, we’re both really happy with it.  Home sweet office!
