Things are coming along in the apartment slowly but surely. One of the spots that I’m the most excited about is my desk and office space! When searching for an apartment, I knew I wanted more than a one-bedroom but two-bedroom apartments felt huge, especially if they had two bathrooms. It felt unnecessary. Working from home can be a challenge, as I learned, when your desk is a mere foot from the bottom of your bed.
We ended up finding a one-bedroom apartment with a “den.” The den is the perfect space for an office! It’s actually about twice the size of our old bedroom.
I ordered a new desk and, while I brought everything from my old desk, I kind of want to mix things up. Plus the desk is significantly larger so there’s more space for cute things. Here’s some things that are inspiring me as I start to shop around:
Now of only I could pick a chair…

Sounds great! I'm glad you were able to find a spot for your office. It's so important to have your private spot when you need it to work. And I love your inspiration list! I have a photo file of things I'd love in my dream office. Great post!
Love it all!

Love your desk, it's so different from the IKEA white desk that every other blogger seems to have at the moment 🙂

It's amazing (and wonderful) to see how your style has developed, Carly! You're keeping me on my toes for my final year of college!
