Dear darling readers (aka Abby),
I’m going through an organizational phase. At the new house, we have a tiny spare bedroom that is PERFECT for my home office. This will be the first time I’ve had an office space larger than a cubicle (the bakery office is a converted closet. Literally.) and I am almost drunk with the power.
I’m starting almost from scratch in the home office; I have a bookcase and a desk as well as a file cabinet from my old home “office” (slash laundry room slash guest room slash storage space…) but am not sure how to set it up to be be both a pleasing space to work (I spend about 25 hours a week in it after all) and an efficient space to complete projects, hold small meetings, and brainstorm. I started by painting it peachy-pink and hanging vintage bedsheets for curtains and already I like being there more than I ever did the old set up. But pink walls do not an office make…
Kip and I are also trying to revamp the closet, er, office at the bakery and use it as efficiently as possible.
Any great tips out there? Wisdom from our awesome readers?
xoxo,
Cluttered and Crazy

I am kind of terrible at organization, but I would suggest maybe having one of those digital picture frames so that while you’re spending long hours sitting you can at least look at a new picture every now and again?
