DIY OFFICE FOR 2

Office for 2

Finally completed <3 A lot sooner than we thought it would be since we had to kick it into high gear because I ended up moving home to work remote for my company. 

I had a vision and just had to make it happen :-)

I was working with a 17 foot wall and wanted to use every bit of it!!!! Making the office a statement piece in the basement soooo....

I used two of these Storage organizers.....

And if you know me I love to repurpose soooo....

My office gave me these and I made them the base to the huge desk I was creating

Desk was made of two sheets of MDF sheets....and I wasn’t even sure it would work but wanted to give it one heck of a try (however I did have a back up plan just in case) I trimmed the sides of the desk top and coated it with the same metallic epoxy I used on the floor andddddd IT TURNED OUT AMAZINGGGG

❤️❤️ OFFICE FOR TWO ❤️❤️

2020 Basement redo

So I had a head full of ideas for a basement redo. With so much space in the basement why not make the most of it? The kiddos are older now and don’t come around as much so let’s entice them with a cool place to hang out.....1st grand baby for Mike was here and we spend a lot of time with her since he watches her while his daughter works. But we also want the kiddos to visit!!! I knew I would be working from home one or two days a week by the middle or end of summer 🤗🤗🤗 got the boyfriends approval and we had a bit so was worked on the details in my head. 

So my phase 1 plan for the basement 

1. Office for two - Mike has a desk but it’s against a concrete wall 😕 so an office would be nice

2. A bar with a mini fridge and little entry into the basement

3. Paisley and under stair play area

Here is the before of the office area which is to the right when you walk into the basement area

This is the before of where you walk into the basement and I imagined an entry area and bar...wanted to disguise that pole too.

Below is where the bar would be built...

And this my friends will be where I build Paisleys playhouse....

It’s been awhile

And I have totally missed blogging....I have also been very busy and recently completed working on some projects that I want to share 🤗 such asssssss......an office for two, a bar and an under stair play area 😍😍😍 those have all been completed and I am beginning work on an electric fireplace built in!!!!

stay tuned

Create something beautiful today....
