The office/3rd bedroom was a design challenge because it needed to serve many functions. Without a basement, any sewing/crafting/work from home/exercise was relegated to the new office. When we first moved in, we had 3 cheap bookcases, 2 large desks and 3 rolling file cabinets shoved in here. I told the hubby we couldn't store our elliptical trainer in the guest bedroom anymore so that too was squeezed in.
Pan to design inspiration: Urban Outfitters 4 x 6 clearance rug for $29.99.
My hubby loves orange and campaigned for orange walls. After many Google searches, we found a lot of really ugly orange paint colors.
Lowes' Orange ______. I think it's a reasonable orange color, but I wish my vote for turquoise would have won. It still may ;)
We also decided to take the extra TV out of storage and wall-mount it
in front of my elliptical trainer. It gets DirecTV and is my main
motivation to exercise. Well worth the ~$35.00 Amazon.com wall-mount. We found the weight bench fit nicely beneath it as a bonus.
We got rid of the cheapy laminate bookcases and went to Menards to get these wall mounted solutions. Ry attached the tracks to the wall studs and we faced the spines of the books out instead of the typical book organization.
The hubby's desk. Needs some cord organization, but overall pretty streamlined.
Desk (2 trundle components and glass top from Ikea, Craigslist for $150)
Chair (Ikea $19.99)
