Did I ever show you my office Before and afters?
It's been done for a while I just forgot to show y'all.
So first we built the HUGE cork board seen here, then we built a big ole desk using
Ikea butcher block counter tops from here
and these from pottery barn
here is my office
BEFORE
and
AFTER:
Simple and Stylish..ish ish
Every time I see a cute office I want to slap myself real hard. Mine is such a mess and I just need some motivation to start. It definitely looks more efficient now. And cute which is even more important.
ReplyDeleteIndeed. You are inspiring me to do mine. Like Sherry's mine is a pigsty. I'm always apologizing when client's come over. So embarrassing!
ReplyDeleteYours look fab.
This looks really great - and very easy to build! Can clearly see which is your side and which is your husband's. Really enjoyed this makeover!
ReplyDeleteLooks so fantastic! Such an easy solution, but so stylish and functional! :)

ReplyDeletehi :) just found your blog-love it. just wondering where the black dresser with the gold handles is from...(from the before picture)?
ReplyDeleteI love it!!! And awesome to have such a large workspace! I'm usually squatted down in the corner of my bedroom or kitchen!
ReplyDeleteLove this so much!!! Can you tell us more about the piece (throw) you have hanging over the back of the chair? Kerry
ReplyDeleteso jeal-ous. I'm currently spread across my dining room table, kitchen table, bed...must I go on. Ahhh, the serenity that is your office. I will close my eyes and use it as my happy place.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I love how it looks more streamlined and it flows better. I simply adore natural wood with white, beautiful job!
ReplyDeletethat is easy enough. now i just need a room.

Hi - I'm not sure you'll even see this so far after the fact, but I absolutely LOVE this desk and want to replicate it exactly in my office. But - I'm having a little trouble figuring the dimensions - the longest countertop I see in Ikea is ~97" but surely the one you used is longer, you have 3 filing cabinets and plenty of chair/leg room underneath. How long is your countertop? Or maybe you used 2? Thanks so much - I really love this!!
ReplyDeleteExcellent information and facts. Only real difficulty I was basically receiving was viewing the pics. No idea exactly why.
