My workspace

I decided to start seriously decorating my room. I’ve lived here for four years already (moved in November 2005) and I haven’t done anything special with my room.

I have a little list of things I want to do here which include:

  • Paint current furniture white
  • Re-upholster couch pink or purple / Buy a new one
  • Get rid of extra bed
  • Get rid of wallpaper

And so on…

I decided to start with the easiest one: Paint current furniture white. I did that yesterday, I spent my morning with white paint getting my desk to look decent. The gray and black was depressing and it looked so old that I could barely feel productive in it. Until recently it was just a tabletop to place my laptop while it was off.

So I got a new chair (took it from my sister’s unused office with her permission) and waited until the two coats of pain dried up.

This is how it looks:

White + uncluttered, I love it! I totally have a landline :P.

My laptop is happy with so much space around

So are these guys. Tux and my bear from London n_n

A little beer cooler I got at Sun in Silicon Valley. You can see my pens, mini tripod and memory stick adapter.

Those boxes I found in my mother’s closet. They hold notebooks and cables.

 DSC01780 Jasper, his case and my Moleskine. I really need to get my 2010 planner ASAP!

I didn’t do the best paint job ever but it looks so much better! I actually feel productive while sitting here.

Are you good with DIYs?

    It looks pretty nice, I think it deserves a spot @Unclutterer Pool on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/groups/unclutterer/pool/
    I’d like to see a before picture though, for extra shocking effect :-p

    Quedó muy bien el mueble blanco, y sí se ve realmente uncluttereado
