Make your home office your sanctuary
Welcome to my creative corner of our home.
It is essential that I have a space that I can call my own. Be it a corner, a cubby or even a closet turned into my space. What should this space include? A pretty desk with all the necessary things. Storage for files and aesthetically pleasing office supplies. I love a good wander around a stationery store.
If space allows, a seating area. A bar cart ;) Books. Art. Pretty vintage lighting. Candles. Plants. I’ll show you in the pictures how I’ve done.
This room is happily tucked into a corner of our basement.
I was grateful that I could choose the best corner of the basement for my own. My corner faces south into the garden. Most of the material is recycled from homes being demolished. We added some pretty wainscoting on the walls.
The furniture is bits and pieces that seem to work together and create a comfortable and cosy feel.
The walls are painted in Farrow and Ball’s Cornforth White and the trim is painted in Wevet .
The antique lights were found online.
I’m so happy with the outcome of my space but to give context, I should show you what we were working with. Here are some pictures of my corner of the basement before and during its creation.
I hope that you have a corner of your home you may claim, where you can make your own sanctuary. xoxo
