Alexis hadn’t used her dining room since waist-high navy wallpaper and oak trim were in style. Ok, not true, she actually used it a lot, but needed to get her home office out of the basement and closer to the action. She says it was “an organizational decision first, and a decorating decision second.” So with a little shuffling, (and some french door building) she gained a new office and functionalized her home! Thus she christened her blog Funktional Home! (Ok, that is also not true… it was already named that from the beginning).
