My office

A couple days ago I posted this picture on the NYAM Facebook page with the caption

in love with my office rn.

Some people didn’t really believe it was my office.

It’s my office. 

I wanted to give myself a really awesome work space.

So I did.

When I came to check this place out for the first time, I immediately fell in love with this room:

I knew it had a ton of potential.

This is going to be my office, I told Allyson, my good friend and realtor.

I was officially divorced and still living with my ex-husband and I could not wait to have my own place.

I loved this room so much that the day we closed on it, I got the keys, packed an air mattress and my grandmother’s dining room table in my car, and set myself up for my first solo night in my new house.

IT WAS AWESOME.

I set it up as best as I could that first month, with used furniture from friends.

I originally was going to paint over the pine paneling but I chose to embrace it.

I’ve had fun turning it into a cozy spot.

I love my office in the winter because I love my fireplace. 

This is the view I have right now as I type this.

Now I have a desk and my grandmother’s table is my work table. (and my puzzle table)

Here’s what my office looks like now:

I just love this room so much. 

And I was right. It does make the BEST office.
