Office Supply

 Sep 27, 2011

Holly needed some workspace, but all she had was this crappity built-in inside her closet.  Light bulb!  Why not carve out a little bit of space for an office right here?  She used nailhead trim over silver vinyl to cover the damaged surfaces and hemmed a Target tablecloth to hide the shelves and bins.  SO cute.  My workspace is jealous and wants a Target tablecloth and poky wall sculptures too! 

If it was up to me, I might have removed some of the drawers for my knobby knees to fit under, but I can understand not wanting to lose any storage space too.  What would you do?

Brilliant and beautiful! Sometimes small spaces force us to get creative and stay organized. It is a good thing.

Wow! What a great transformation and pretty work space! Great job, Holly!

I think that I'd try to rig up the top drawer to slide out and be the keyboard shelf. That way you would have knee space but not loose a lot of storage and it would still look balanced. Beautiful job! I love the fabric!

thanks for the great compliments everyone! yeah, if i owned the built in dresser i would have been more inclined to rip the bottom part out for my knees but since i don't i am just making due... luckily i have long arms and can sit back a bit and still type comfortably :) & sherron i do like your idea of rigging the keyboard on the top drawer... i may just try that...
