I have been writing this blog now for over 5 years but it was only this month that I got my own work space. Our old house didn't have space for an extra desk (Ed works from home too) and so I would balance my laptop on the edge of the sofa with paperwork and review items scattered around the house. I wasn't as productive as I should have been and when we found our current house, creating my own little work space was a priority.
I only have a laptop and I didn't need a big desk. I was sent this one from Kit out my office and it fits the bill perfectly. It is simple, easy to use and it has a pop of colour with the yellow drawer. It was ridiculously easy to put together (thank goodness as we are so fed up with flatpack furniture now!) and I love the little space I have created around it.
The white theme with pops of colour seemed perfect for me, but I fell in love with the brightest chair that Ikea sold and I just had to have it. It is so comfy, the pattern will hopefully hide dirt well and it makes my space stand out in the room. I went for all white accessories for on the desk and then used two photoframes that were up above our sofa in the old house to go on the wall.
I painted the glass on one with blackboard paint so that I can write daily to do lists for myself, and I bought a print from Freddie and Co for the other one. My new work space is clear, inspiring, colourful and perfect for this blogger.
