New Home Office
My Home Office use to be in the basement…I hated it.
It was cold and the lighting was awful …
SO…
I decided that since the spare room upstairs was rarely used I would switch it up.
The office is now upstairs and the guest room in the basement!
 |
| Before: Office in basement, messy from a day of scrapbooking |
 |
| Before: Spare Bedroom, still pink from when it was my daughter’s room. |
The upstairs room is smaller but just big enough to hold everything I need.
This was my inspiration…
After painting the room and changing the light fixture to one that was previously in my bedroom
(you know how I love to reuse and repurpose),
I brought in the same desk and shopped my house for other pieces of furniture.
 |
| Old wall unit in the basement was updated with new hardware and wallpaper behind the glass doors |
An old pine armoire was brought in to hold all my scrapbooking supplies…
I brought in some accessories, a comfy chair, made my own bulletin board and wall art….and NOW
It’s
Bright
Organized
and a FUN place to work
Another DIY project: Pizza boxes covered in fabric with my initials (wood letters from the dollar store)
Don’t forget to surround yourself with the things you love…
Thanks for coming by,
Margaret

Thanks!! I love having a neutral background and then I can easily change the pops of colour.
