I love this little corner so much.
It came together fairly quickly after moving in. I knew right away that my old desks wouldn’t work in this space.. much too ‘desk’ like. As I roll my eyes at myself. haha!
After a quick look around, I found this antique table online.. and was able to pick it up in Grande Prairie about an hour later. It was perfect.. and a deal! Although I did have a few moments of “how the heck can I have two tables side by side!?” and of course, “what was I thinking, it won’t all fit!” ..but after having the table top cut down, so it wasn’t quite so big, it went back to being perfect.
I wanted this corner to be a functional work space, but since it is also shared with the dining area, the living room.. and the entrance to the house, it needed to blend and feel like home as well. I think I will do another post on this space eventually.. but I wanted to quickly share one of my favourite spots of this new old home.
Thoughts of opening a space are still on my mind, and take up a large portion of my thoughts when planning haha! For now, I am loving the flexibility of working from home.. makes my all nighters a little bit easier haha!
I love that when I have to work when the kids are home, they can hang out at the dining table there, or in the living room which I am standing near when I took this photo.. it’s all one shared space. It really does make working from home that much better.
Then there are days like today, when it is -50 outside with the windchill. Literally. Those are the days I do all my work from the couch cozied up in blankets! Oh yes, working from home can definitely have it’s perks.
Hope you are staying warm wherever you are!
