Tom and I never had a proper home office in our previous condo. We had limited space so the dining table doubled as the family’s work area. It was fine, in fact, my husband and I photographed and styled most of the food shots in my book on top of it.
Our new house is quite spacious and we are happy that we have an extra room for a proper home office. It’s actually my husband’s office but he’s letting me crash with him until I’m done working on my walk-in closet/office.
We are still using the same dining table/desk we had in our previous condo (we finally have a proper dining table, YAY!) and I bought new work chairs (got them on sale, YAY again!) and Tom rearranged the office furniture. I can’t show you a photo of the room yet as it’s not yet done but I love what my husband did to the space.
The simplest gestures mean the most. Thanks @tomepperson. #workarea #desk
