An Office Nook - The Beginning

 

When we moved into this house a few years ago, we had no idea what we were going to to with this odd space that was between the den and kitchen.  We talked about using the playroom as an office/playroom, but that didn't seem just right. We finally decided that this would make a great little office nook, I'm really not sure what else we could have done with it. I have to say that this space looks better in pics than it does in person.  We have a desktop computer that has a TON of wires. I have tried all different things next to the desk to try to hide the wires, power strip, huge tower, etc. This space has always just seemed off to me, but I wasn't really sure how to make it better. Sure, a new family laptop would be GREAT, but my husband really seems to prefer a desktop. Right now, this is the computer that we are working with.

The other thing that I am hoping to address with changing the space up some, is to add more practical storage for our stuff. We homeschool, I'm an Independent Consultant for Thirty-One, and we have all of your normal household type stuff to deal with. We have storage for these things, but it is a little too scattered. I am hoping to find a more central place for all of these things. 

I do have to say that this space has improved from where it started originally. 

Yikes! That was a sad attempt at a gallery wall, and a really bad picture. I am still learning my new camera and have a ways to go, but thankfully I am making progress.

Do you have a room in your home that is a dedicated office, or have you carved out an office nook somewhere in your home? 

Stay tuned. This is a real time project, so it will be a few days before I can show you the progress.
