Making things pretty...

Home improvements. I have more ideas than I have time, money or energy. Nevertheless, things are slowly but surely coming together. I am planning on trying to finish getting the bedroom set up in the next couple weeks. I've built a new headboard (and I'm kind of in love with it!) and am just waiting for the weather to cooperate so I can put another coat of clear coat on it and pull the room together. I'm already dreaming and scheming about revamping my office space and I'm dreaming big. Working from home in our last place sometimes felt a little like living in a dungeon and now that I have a nice bright corner to call home, I plan on making it somewhere I want to spend time. Speaking of which, now that I've grown accustomed to having my own office space at home, I don't think I'll ever want to go back to not having one, even after I'm back out in the real world where bathrobes and down-filled booties are not considered appropriate work attire. Now I just need to start planning. Wouldn't something like this be nice?

Okay, so maybe this is a little too nice for someone who makes a habit out of eating chips and popcorn and cookies at her desk but I'm sure I'll find a happy medium. :)
