I changed my office around recently so I didn’t have my back to the door and so I could capitalize on the light from the window. However, I now faced a large blank wall. Working from home has me missing my whiteboard and bulletin board. Not that I often updated them but they made me stay organized and feel like I was in an office.

In my mind I had a nice weekend project… really an afternoon project of tackling this blank wall. A few years ago I gave my Mom a photograph of men at South Station, Boston looking at their pocket watches. It reminded me of my Grandfather who was a brakeman for the railroad. Long story short, it never got framed. So, a wall project was born. I purchased an inexpensive frame and whiteboard (with bulletin board) and got everything together to hang. However, I did not like the shelf that came with the whiteboard… so off to purchase a small hanging shelf for the markers and eraser… and I love the overall look. What do you think?

I also stumbled across this Martha Stewart Living rug for the floor… which has become more important now that the winter months are here and the floor is COLD. It suddenly feels like a comfortable workspace. Now I just have to dock the laptop and away I go!
