erin’s home office update part one
THIS POST HAS BEEN A LONG TIME COMING! IF YOU FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM, YOU KNOW WE’VE HAD A LONG YEAR OF HOME RENOVATIONS. FLOODING FOLLOWED BY CONSTRUCTION & TONS OF DELAYS. IN THE PROCESS, I OPTED TO MOVE MY OFFICE AND HAVE BEEN PATIENTLY WAITING TO SHARE PART ONE OF MY HOME OFFICE UPDATE!
HOME OFFICE UPDATE: PART ONE
ODDLY ENOUGH, THE BIGGEST UPDATE TO MY HOME OFFICE (AKA MY ONLY OFFICE BECAUSE I WORK FROM HOME) WAS MY RUG!
HERE’S A PICTURE OF THE BEFORE & AFTER!
I OPTED TO GO WITH SOMETHING A LITTLE MORE NEUTRAL & LOWER PROFILE SO OUR ROOMBA CAN GLIDE OVER IT!
I PICKED THE BOLINGER AREA RUG FROM BOUTIQUE RUGS. NOT ONLY IS IT SUPER CHIC, IT’S ALSO REASONABLY PRICED!
I GOT THE 5′ X 7′ AREA RUG (IT’S A NEUTRAL CREAM COLOR). IT NORMALLY COSTS $555 BUT YOU CAN GET IT FOR 60% OFF USING CODE ERIN60!!
I LOVE THAT IT’S MADE OF 100% WOOL & SUPER SOFT, WARMING UP MY SPACE.
MY PREVIOUS RUG WAS A MORE BOHO GRAY AND WHITE RUG THAT MADE THE SPACE SEEM A LOT SMALLER AND DARKER.
WHAT A DIFFERENCE A RUG MAKES!
YOU CAN SHOP ALL OF THEIR RUGS & GET THE SAME DISCOUNT HERE! IT’S NICE BECAUSE THEY ALSO FEATURE A TON OF REAL, USER SUBMITTED PHOTOS SO YOU CAN GET A FEEL FOR HOW IT WILL LOOK IN YOUR SPACE.
TIP: YOU CAN ALSO OPT FOR FREE REPAIRS & REPLACEMENTS THROUGH MULBERRY ON THEIR SITE BY PAYING EITHER $42.99 for a year or $92.99 for 5 years.
WHAT’S NEXT?
I JUST BOUGHT A NEW DESK, LIGHT FIXTURES & NEW OFFICE CHAIR, PLUS SOME CHIC ORGANIZATIONAL AND DECOR OPTIONS. JUST TRYING TO DECIDE IF I WANT TO ADD WALLPAPER BEFORE SHARING! HERE’S WHAT I STILL NEED TO SORT OUT:
- HOW TO COVER PART OF MY DESK SURFACE FOR DIY PROJECTS & A MORE DEDICATED DIY WORK SPACE
- IMPROVE THE NATURAL LIGHT WITH A LARGER WINDOW
- A HIDDEN FILING CABINET
- A STORAGE BENCH THAT MATCHES MY OFFICE DESK CHAIR
