Summer: Day 2...Desk Time

I am so tired of living in a house that is still in a constant state of unpacking. We have been here for almost two years...well, its all going to change this summer. Let "Organization 2013" commence!!

Recently (a year and a half ago) we turned a four bedroom house into a three bedroom house including a master suite with a huge walk-in closet. The intention for the closet was to build a desk in one corner so that it could also act as a little office. Well, almost 2 years later and no desk.

It has looked like this for the last year:



Saturday was "operation desk" day. The corner is very small and needs a non-traditional desk; I decided on a secretary desk. Craigslist was my first option, but that produced bupkis. Everything was either too expensive or not what I wanted. I turned to IKEA. They had a very good candidate. So I took some measurements and headed down to the store.


Made sure I measured twice because I have had some issues with IKEA. Purchased the desk. I started the assembly and then Husby finished it.



Filled the desk with desk stuff. Finally I will know where to look if I need a staple or white out. Instead of running around on a wild goose chase.

The finished product is so much better:
