nother season, another one room challenge. I look last spring off, but now I am so excited to be back this fall working on our home office 2.0. Why 2.0 you ask?! Well, great question. I originally did my home office in the fall of 2021 but lots has changed since then so we needed to pivot! Let me run you through it.
Why Am I Doing Another Home Office?
What on Earth is Happening in this Room?
So, fair question. I’ll preface by saying my due date is today, so I am blogging this from the past – at least my images are from the past where I forgot to take proper before’s of the space. We’ll call it pregnancy brain for fun – but it really was just a gigantic oversight. This room is our spare bedroom – used by visitors maybe 10% of the year. It also has served as McGregor’s home office space on the odd occasion he works from home.
Now we sort of need a three-fold room here – so while I’m calling this home office 2.0, what we really need is a spare room, a home office for me, and an occasional home office for McGregor.
Just a small undertaking.
The Plan For Home Office 2.0
- So, we need a KING murphy bed. Yes, you read that right. Do you know how hard that is to find? It’s hard, but doable.
- We aren’t just doing any king murphy bed though – were doing one that looks like built-ins. The discrete kind of murphy bed
- Then we are doing a desk – a middle of the room desk. BOLD choice right. I love it. It feels so much grander in the middle of the room.
- We need a new light fixture
- Curtains
- All the other decor items
- OH paint, of course. We are going dark and MOODY and I’m very excited.
So there you have it, my week 1 update! Hopefully week 2 is delayed because our little one has arrived. Please cross your fingers for me LOL!
Oh by the way, don’t forget to check out the rest of the exciting spaces from this week on the ORC Blog!
