Decided to rework some of my online business, which means lots of extra work to be done…on top of the work I have been doing half arsed lately. The lounge office was not going to cut it any longer. It wasn’t really helpful or productive and my chair was getting a little flat, the coffee table draws had become my filing come storage draws….I need an day time office! (lounge office will still be in operation for evening work)
Trip to the tip yesterday to dump some stray crap hanging around in our spare room..gotta love a 5 bedroom house. This room is sorta suppose to be the gym, the treadmill and weights are in here…but well..we all know they are long past getting used as regularly as they used to 
The room is nice and bright during the day, but could do with some colour. At the moment the walls are lemon..noice. And the whole room is this lovely texture. I cannot understand WHY on earth someone would do that on purpose? I banged my hand on it earlier and it made me bleed! Thankfully it is only in one room, and the toilet.
Jake isn’t keen on painting it my lovely lime colour..or pink…so trying to come up with a nice, not too dark colour. And some curtains so I can open the blinds without the very close neighbours seeing in. Ohh…and maybe some nice prints
I have a small desk in here for now, while I look around for a new one. After a corner unit with some draws ( I can hear Ikea calling my name!) need space for all the laptops..and some cats of course.
First day in here today was quite productive! Hopefully that keeps up!
What does your office look like?

ohhh that crap on the wall is horrid isnt it? Our bathroom is like that & I am forever scrapping my knuckles when I hang my towel GGGRRRR
What about a noice purple????
a corner of my living room
purple does sound nice……… or maybe a lighter green or…….. or…….. lol
Can I show you after I move house? I’m going to have my own special place then, as opposed to being out in the guest bedroom aka “the perfect nursery” as my mum calls it.
I think purple would be a good choice, maybe lilac so that it’s not overly dark. That crap on the wall is going to make it hard to paint though.
My office is awful. Right next to the front door, by the front stairs and within sight of the kitchen. Sigh.
Hubby wants to buy me a screen, but I just want to sort out an upstairs sewing/craft/study that I can run away to when someone else is looking after the kids, rather than still being in the thick of it.
I have two desks, 4 computers, a printer on top of a two drawer filing cabinet and a small 4 cube unit along with a pile of plastic boxes (6). And every surface is piled high with stuff.
Next purchase: more bookshelves.
Can’t offer any advice on the colour as I am more of a “one colour for everything” person and then all the accessories are colourful. My office/massage room is the same colour as the rest of the house but it has colourful artwork on the walls etc to liven it up.
The porridge walls are interesting though LOL so I think any colour would make it look better
