EMMAS DESIGNBLOGG

Design and style from a Scandinavian perspective

Home office, yes please!

Would someone please be so kind as to give me a home office like this? And take care of my children while I shut myself in there for a couple of months? For now, all I have is that wooden box standing on the table in this pic. And a laptop on the sofa table where I (try to) work, with all three kids around me. I'm sure I would answer all my emails  in time and get my blog posts up much quicker if I had this room!

    Ever since I got my laptop I have not used my office. But then, I don't have kids, so not as many distractions. I do find that I am still distracted by my "to-do" list of home chores if I'm looking at them. Being able to shut a door makes a big difference. Hope you get your dream office one of these days.

    We used to have a room for an office, however, all that changed when i got pregnant. I decided to put my office in a closet so that i could use the "original office" for the nursery. I had to put some of my books in boxes, but it has worked out great so far. Now, whenever, i go to my closet office(although there are doors, it's not deep enough for me to lock myself in it), my 15 month old thinks it playtime-he yanks on the printer and wants to crawl under the desk etc.:-) I might just post a pic on my blog... Sorry about the long

    post:-)

    Thanks for the input everyone! I think having my own office will keep being just a dream for the next decade or so, until my oldest son's move away from home. But I'll keep that dream alive, that's for sure! :)



    @pw: The stools are classic Tolix stools.

    Emma, I just had to laugh when you mentioned your son moving away and your dreams for an office. I hope you don't mind if I share a funny story. -- Years ago while working at a furniture store, a woman came in shopping for furniture for a room that would be her new hobby room when her son moved out. She had drawn up a floor plan - and I remind you that she was actually in a furniture store shopping. I asked if he was moving out soon, thinking this was coming up in a month or two. "No," she said, " he's only 16 & won't be moving for at least a couple of years."



    Now that's someone with a dream!
