I’ve been meaning to write this post for at least six months, but many things have conspired against me, not least of which is that I was busy growing a tiny human in my uterus. I’m thrilled to share that we welcomed said tiny human to the world a little over two weeks ago, and while the last two weeks have been filled with lots of diaper changes, breastfeeding sessions and staring endlessly at the tiny human that still confounds me how she came out of my body, I’m finding that I do actually have a decent amount of down time. It’s just broken up into insanely short chunks. It’s not ideal for getting any real work done (as evidenced by the fact that I actually started this post four days ago and just got around to finishing it now), but it does afford me time to do things like read and write for very short periods at a time.
So I’m finally able to share a project that I completed last fall–my new office desk!
For years, I’ve wanted a nice, big, flat surface in my workspace–one that would double as a place I could do art projects and cut fabric and spread my stuff out on. My office in the old house couldn’t really accommodate such a desk, but the office in the new house has ample space, so I figured it was time to upgrade my desk situation.
