Having a little desk space in the kitchen sounds like a totally efficient idea. “I can pay the bills and boil water!” “Flip through Facebook and filet a fish!” “Play on Pinterest and parboil potatoes!” But Cami can tell you that a desk in the kitchen is actually quite inefficient — when it’s so unattractive that you can’t bring yourself to look at it, let alone use it.
That was the case with her little space here, but one day she decided she couldn’t take any more of its offensive blandness. She painted the maple stained cabinets to match the rest of the kitchen, blocked out the clutter-displaying glass doors with fabric, created a new countertop with wood planks, and added a ton of adorable little details you’ll have to see up close on her blog Tidbits. My favorite (which you can barely see in this picture) are the fancy new legs!
And now, a few items of business. MyQ Garage giveaway winner is … Robyn Swenson! Congrats Robyn, I will be emailing you ASAP.
And one more thing. Either everyone thought I was joking, or everyone is intimidated by my book of celebrity bar mitzvah photos, but no one has entered the Super Random Dollar Store Contest 2014 yet! I hope you do, it will be so fun! I will have a prize, and I promise it won’t be the book! Ha!

I can’t see myself doing something like that since I like doing those kind of stuff in my home office, but maybe for someonw who needs to maximize their time more it might be a good option! 🙂
