Work In Progress: Office

Remember this Curated Life post? Well I liked the idea of sharing areas in our home that are a work in progress so much that I decided to try it as a regular feature.

Today's space is my office, which is really just a desk and some drawers facing the back of the mister's desk and tucked into one side of our living room. While I don't have any before photos for this one, it's definitely not in a completed state, so we'll return to see the progress in the coming months.

Any item without a source listed is vintage

I still have a few projects on my list to complete this space- covering the back of the mister's desk with something pretty, making and hanging a pin board, finding a real plant to hang in the corner (to try out having a plant there I cut some branches from this invasive fern that grows in our backyard for these photos), and reorganizing all those drawers. It's coming together though- and hopefully soon I'll like it enough to actually work there instead of at the kitchen table!

What are you working on in your home? I'd love to share reader submissions for this new feature- send me an email if you'd like to contribute (danae{at}gatherandhuntvintage{dot}com).

gratitude

i'm confined to bed this morning, with what i hope doesn't turn out to be appendicitis (don't worry, i'll go to the doctor!). that said, today's post will be short and sweet (and instagram-ed).

today i'm grateful for something lovely to look at on these days when i'm stuck in bed.

with more of those days than i would like, between the migraines and the fibromyalgia, so it's nice to have this great map hanging on the wall across the room. the colors are so perfectly beautiful, especially in the morning light, and it helps me refresh my knowledge of (what little is still current) European geography to boot!

what do you have gratitude for today?
