Home Office in Gray and White

February 5, 2019 By Linda 9 Comments

Home Office in Gray and White – Gray White Home Office.

Home Office in Gray and White

Welcome to my home office.
 
 
Where the magic happens. πŸ˜‰
 
 
I know, I know. You’re thinking, “really Linda?” Really? Because that looks an awful lot like your living room.”
 
 
To which I respond, “Yes, yes, my eagle-eyed friends. You are correct. This is, in fact, a corner of my living room.”
 
 
Now there’s a logical reason I’m claiming this corner of the living room as my office space. You do remember how my home is spatially challenged, right? Which means there is no magical spare room in which I can make the magic happen. So my living room has to pull double duty …
 

This is where you’ll find me most days for most of the day. Tucked behind this laptop table, all dressed up in my yoga pants and over-sized hoodie with my hair pulled back in a pony tail and reading glasses firmly affixed to my face.
 
 
And this is where I edit pictures and write blog posts and answer your questions.
 
 
You know, all that magic making stuff. πŸ™‚
 
 
The best part of this laptop table is this open cubby. Now I can keep this home office corner of my living room organized and clutter free by tucking away all my pens and notepads and notebooks filled with “to do’s” and future project and post ideas.
 

But my office isn’t just relegated to that one corner by the window. I’ve extended my reach over here …

This side table is not just a side table. It pulls double duty by housing all my blog and household files …

Clever, right?

 

I’m all about the hidden storage ideas. And the pulling of double-duty furniture and spaces.

So while I return to the magic making, I thought I’d share all of my home office shopping resources …

 

Home Office Shopping Resources:

Greige & White Striped Armchair from Wayfair
 
Jute Rug from Wayfair
 
Laptop Computer Table/Desk from World Market
 
Filing Drawer Side Table from Better Homes & Gardens Collection at Walmart
 
Drum Table from a long, long time ago from a distant relative (and here’s a link to how I painted the base & and here’s a link to how I stripped and whitewashed the top)
 
Painted & Distressed Mason Jars from My Etsy Shop

 

Pin It!

    You have a very beautiful and creative work space Linda. Mine right now is the kitchen table with a bookcase. It’s OK as I know it is temporary. Thinking of you in that frigid weather!! Have a great day!

    I really like the table and especially the side table/file cabinet. I can get rid of those ugly file cabinets. Thanks Linda.

    I’m happy to see I’m not the only person to still use a mouse with my laptop, even though my kids tell me I am πŸ™‚ Your office space looks amazing.
