IKEA flatpack fun!
Here's what we did this weekend (and by we, I mean mostly Scott). New office!! We braved IKEA last weekend – exhausting. And yesterday Scott deconstructed the old office and put together the bright and shiny new office. Hurrah!! I LOVE it. I had next to no desktop surface workspace before, and now I have a vast expanse. <deep sigh of pleasure>. So today I spent some time getting my pace neatly ordered ready for work tomorrow.
There's still some work to do… we need to brave another trip to IKEA to get drawer and filing cabinet units… and whoopee another weekend of furniture building. And all the cords need zip-tied, etc., but as you can see from the BEFORE picture, this is tremendous progress.
THANK YOU to my sweetie pie hubby for all his hard work on this. XOXOXO
(also an IKEA set, but originally purchased to fit a smaller space – Scott's desk before, which you can't see in this photo, was an old dining room table. Functional, but it had its problems)
