Sneak Peek of My New Home Office

I can finally start getting excited about our home office project. I am starting to see the finish line! My husband and I have been working, (on and off), upstairs on a brand new office for me!:officeI am fortunate my husband is such a great handyman- he can make anything. After painting, ( with my favorite color) navy blue, we had to wire in new lights because there was not any overhead lighting. And we decided to build a whole wall of bookshelves and cabinets:office wallWe installed the cabinets:,office cabinetsThen we laid a piece of a 12 foot long, 36” width and a thickness of 3” African Sapele wood as a countertop. It is beyond beautiful wood. My husband loves visiting mill yards with many types of lumber and always finds the coolest wood.africanafrican woodIt is so beautiful. So happy with it.I have a special chair I am bring in from another room for this comer:office cornerI already brought in window treatments, (thinking it would push my husband to get going in the room):office windowOne problem I have- there is no space in the room for my favorite old chest:off chestIt is THE coolest desk I have. I even have a stool with it. It is really old:old deskAnd a great hiding spot for some of my stuff:hiding spotI don’t like the way it juts out from the wall when you first walk in. I want to be able to have a clear view to the bookshelves:office chestI have way too much stuff.Well it is getting there. My handy husband Mike will be building the shelves hopefully this week! I can’t wait to style all those shelves. I will post photos when finished.Have a great weekend everyone!Kelly
