Week in Review Part 2

I hate our office. When we are home, we spent 90% of our evening in this room. I hate it.
It is cluttered, bland, and uncomfortable. I want to knock the wall out put in a curtain and make the guest bedroom my office and leave this room to Chris as a man cave. But I guess then it would be even worse...

The number one problem I see when I see the office is my work area. My desk is actually a drafting table, not a computer desk. Then I have a folding TV tray for our printer which has junk piled on it. THEN I have a small two drawer cabinet with more of my junk on it.

This whole issue could be solved with this:

This sexy little number is a Walker Edison and is super cheap on Amazon. $89.00, free shipping. I need it. That would turn 3 pieces of mismatched furniture into one awesome piece.

Problem 2 is no decor. I have a bulletin board and our worthless degrees hanging on the walls and a sea green bookshelf filled with computer games and manga topped with a set of fake katana and stuffed mythological creatures.

This problem can be solved by, uhm... getting the desk above and then decorating around it. This desk... it can solve my problems. It could probably cure a terminal illness.

**Power went out so Chris and I talked: We are Ordering it. YAY!!!!!**

Anyone actually read all this gibberish? If so, post in the comments the answer to the Reader Response:

What theme should I use to decorate my office if I get this magical desk?

***Change of subject!!! ***

I spent a lot of time looking at Etsy this week to find nothing really.

I have had my eye on this shop for a bit though.

Sea Pinks


Is this bird not the most adorable, simple little sweetheart ever? I have been staring at him and his little buddies for the whole week. I want him, and all his little green and turquoise friends to hang all over my kitchen.

There is a plethora of adorable pincushions in her store as well and I just about died when I saw one that looked like a Kiwi and a grapefruit (don't go looking for the grapefruit... it's been sold already).

I don't sew and don't want to learn (because I'm lazy), but I want all these awesome things. (And Aprons!)


When I look at pages that recommend things to me based on what I have previously looked at I re-assess myself. They all make sense systematically, but that doesn't keep me from tilting my head and saying, why would I want that?!

Amazon recommends: Ukelele books, werewolf action figures, and desk chairs (for my cure all desk I suppose).

Etsy recommends: Vintage lingerie, crucifixes, and cupcake liners.

Cutting this short as this storm is going to take out my computer... again!
