DIY Inexpensive Large Built-In Wall Desk

I am so excited to finally be putting together a blog post about my giant built in desk in the office space! This is pretty affordable and easy to do, and is great for creating a large workspace with plenty of storage. I listed and linked the items I used, as well as the steps of how to put it together! I have loved have this workspace and have been using it constantly- it’s so comfortable and sits at the perfect height for crafting, art projects, or working on my computer. What I love about this project is that you can use the basic idea and materials I listed but really customize it to fit your own space/style! Whether you use different dressers, knobs, or a countertop- there’s so many ways to create this awesome built-in workspace on a budget! Let me know if you try this project and how you make it your own!

Office Renovation Update

I’ve been updating this big “bonus room” space above our garage into an office/workspace for client meetings, creative projects, crafting, sewing, and more. You might have seen updates about this space when I shared about my DIY Marble-Looking Countertops and I’m so excited to share the progress that has been made since then. I still have a lot more projects in mind for this space but it has come so far from the nasty carpet and ceiling fan room seen in the “before” pictures below! I am finally able to work and enjoy this space and am having so much fun putting the finishing touches on everything. Check out more before and after pictures below!

Our Fixer Upper: Office Renovation Progress

There’s been a few spaces we haven’t even touched since moving in to our fixer upper. One of those spaces is this awesome bonus room space above our garage which was undoubtedly the nastiest room of the house when we first moved in. The space was filled with badly stained (and stinky) carpet, holes in the walls, broken windows, dust and overall dinginess. We didn’t really need the space for anything right away, so it just sat there and became storage for the first few years we have lived here.
