Project Office Makeover : Before Photos

At the end of January 2010, when we moved into our new house, I was most inspired to decorate my office/closet/dressing room ...as it happens to be the room I spend the most time in. A little over a year later, I am finally finishing the project.

The main hold up for me was finding the right desk ...for the right price. Since I use this room as an office/closet/dressing room, I had originally imagined using the white Ikea Expedit 6x6 shelves as a room divider, separating my office area from my closet area. Once we moved in however, I realized the room was not large enough for that to work and I gave up on it. It wasn't until last November when I realized that Ikea had a desk option for the Expedit that I became inspired again. I neeeeeeeeeeeeed the storage space the Expedit offers {it also should be known that we have a 6x6 one in the living room, a 5x5 in the guest room and two more single units in the living room as well}. Yeah, I'm obviously obsessed with cubbies! They're just too handy!

Of course, if you follow my Tweets you may remember my trip to Ikea to get said Expedit desk and how they were sold out of it and how I was ranting about how Ikea was not a furniture store at all but more hell on earth. About a month later, the desk system finally became available online and to avoid Ikea aggravation again, I had it delivered ...and it arrived last week.

So, I give you what the office side of my Office/Closet/Dressing room {aka ...love Maegan Studio} looks like now ...what it has looked like since we moved in over a year ago ...though the dueling iMacs is only since Christmas. I got a new iMac but didn't have all my programs on the new one so have been using both for the past 3 months ...and killing my back doing so.
