I spent over fifteen years working in an office and I spent most of those fifteen years working as some kind of an assistant (administrative assistant, executive assistant, assistant director). When I walked away from my cubicle to be a full time artist five years ago, I vowed to never work in an office ever again! Insert time, growth and the fact that a large part of my creative business happens on the computer, we made the decision get organized and turn our guest room into a home office. Sounds like no big deal but for me it was a full circle moment.
For the first time in five years I found myself shopping for file folders, post-it notes and dry erase markers and it wasn't for someone else- it was for me. If you have at any point been an assistant or supported, organized, filed or shopped for someone's else's office you will understand why my trip for office supplies was a momentous one. (I even had an emotional little moment in the paper aisle of Office Depot!) While I would rather be painting in my studio 7 days a week instead of sitting at the computer, I am so grateful to have my own little space to work in. Here is a peek...

Love your office...So home like and pretty...I wish I have that kind of office someday..:)
What a conducive space to work in though, far superior and more creative than a cubicle from corporate america. Absolutely adore the "Every day I'm hustling" cushion, that is a regular phrase in my vocabulary ;)
Current creative/former admin assistant here! I love your office space! Was it weird not to have to fill out an expense report and chase down the boss for your office supplies? :)
I LOVE LOVE your office space, so pretty and lots of white space! Your file cabinet is amazing, you really can doodle on anything and everything!
Having your own personal office is way more fun then a real one at work. Glad you feel good about it and made it cozy and inspiring!
I have loved office supplies since my teenage years, still going strong. Now I only wish to have a office space of my own.
Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful pictures. ENJOY IT!
p.s. Lucy's art is amazing!!
awesome space - love it!
thanks for sharing :)
What a lovely space
I love the bright white and space for creating, I'm quite bad at collecting and hoarding things rather than having clear space for everything, you've inspired me to have a bit of a clear out

Adorable!
Lovely Idea
What an awesome home office! I love how inspirational it feels and how functional it is. I spent 18 years in cubicle land, so I can relate to the excitement of having a home office for your creative life. I love the drawing corner you set up, which I need to find room for in my own space. Love the corner to chill too.
I love your office. It's my dream to have a space like that!
So beautiful and inspiring! I'm totally in a creative mood now. Curious, how do you store your washi tape? (I know there are a million ideas out there, but I want to know yours!).
What a beautiful workspace - I am sure Lucy appreciates your efforts to make her feel welcome. Just lovely
This just looks like a PERFECT work office for me!!!!! Your little family just inspires me.... SO MUCH!!!!! <3
