Today, I would like to give you a sneak peek at where I work at home. My current office started out as a tiny upstairs guest bedroom when we moved in a couple years ago. And by tiny, I mean enough space for a twin size bed, nightstand, and that’s about it! It’s about 9″ by 9″, so it doesn’t hold much. Plus, it has a built in cabinet along all one wall, so it’s hard to put any furniture there and still be able to open the doors. Here’s what it looked like as a guest room:
I knew I wanted a brighter, happier color on the walls than the pale blue that was there. I decided on this happy mint/aqua green (the darkest shade on the color chip) that matched the fabric on my bulletin board. Pretty colors like this make me happy! 🙂
I decided to paint the walls and the giant built in cabinet the same color, so it wouldn’t stand out as much. I also wanted a new desk and bookshelf with more space to handle all of the various items I need for office work, plus a dry erase board for all of my projects and ideas. Here’s what the finished room looks like:
