{Our Smaller Office}

As promised in my two previous posts: {Less Office Space in Return for Our DEEPER Reach In Closet...} and {Our DEEPER Reach In Bedroom Closet}, here is Our Smaller Office. All done and the dust has been cleaned away. Not only the dust from this remodeling but also from the next project which I will show you shortly. But we're done with this room; almost ready to do the happy dance!

That's the office side of the DEEPER Reach In Closet...

You can see to the left the door. The indoor shutters for the windows, I had to close as the sun would prevent me from taking any photo...

We did place all four of our oak Barrister book cases on top of each other.

Way on top is my oak sewing chest...

We got our oak Barrister book cases from the Levenger Outlet store in Del Rey Beach, Florida.

Looking back to the door and into the hallway... There seems to actually be no loss of space that we would ever miss!

Let's turn full circle... The oak desk that I used for writing, previous to having my PC.

The turned wood lamp has been handmade by my friend Becky's Father. 

He no longer is with us...

My printer and my scanner are to the left in the other oak desk...

By the way, this is also a new solid oak plank floor by Bruce.

It very well matches all our solid French oak furniture from the 80s and early 90s.

Emptying the room is the hardest part. We did move into the Rose Suite downstairs, as all this was stored inside our master bedroom.

That's the corner where these blog posts come to live...

Love my special Herman Miller® Aeron® Chair with basic lumbar support for my back.

The best thing about these chairs is that they can be ordered in S, M and L and this is the S version, called 'A'.

Hyatt House Miami Airport had them in their guest rooms and that's how I found out about its great support!

Found mine at a discount at Madison Seating in New York, N.Y.

They also come with a caster option that is fit for hard wood floors.

My PC stand is from Office Max, aluminum and glass.

The beautiful artwork above my monitor has been done by a friend, who made it for Pieter's birthday one year. Frame is by Irok gallery. 

Stepping back into the door opening so you can see the window again.

Shutters closed for the sunshine.

Our PC is from Costco Wholesale.

IMPOSSIBLE to capture that on photo with the sunshine...

Lacquered Brass Window Decorations are from Jech Kunstgewerbe, Blaustein/Germany.

The three needle lace hangings are hand made by me.

They are hung inside an acrylic frame and held together by clear acrylic nuts & bolts.

I use dual sided Scotch tape for holding the lace in place.

Anyone wanting to frame an heirloom doily or whatever; just contact me!

Below this post I will put a link where you can see those acrylic nuts & bolts in detail.

On the side wall of the DEEPER Reach In Closet we hung those Royal Tichelaar Makkum blue tiles. Royal Tichelaar Makkum is the Netherlands' oldest company!

My Paternal Uncle Jan, did frame them. It is not wood but he did mold a gypsum frame for each one of them. 

My dear Aunt gave this to me after my Uncle passed away because we always have been very close with him. 

Another of those gifts to treasure for a life time...

So what you say about our finished job?

This is what prevented me from taking photos with the shutters open... 30°C or 86°F at 15:00 o'clock...

Wishing you all part of that sunshine!
