Around The Apartment
Some pictures I took the other day from our apartment. The copper cake tin in the first picture is from a thrift store. I love the old patinated finish! The metal candleholders I painted are now in use. I also bought some flowers for our dining table, they are now blooming. I must say I liked them more like this, small and vivid green. 
My Workspace – Updated
Here’s how my workspace has changed since the last time I showed you:
We bought two glossy white tabletops and metal legs from Ikea and made them look like one long table. The table is now 3 m wide and I love it! The space looks a lot more organized now and I have more work surface to use. And though the table is huge, it still looks light and airy because the white glossy surface reflects light. Perfect!
My New Old Typewriter
The same day that I bought my nude loafers, the two tier fruit bowl and the leather belt for my clock makeover, I also saw this:
I didn’t buy it then but it sort of hunted me so I had to go back the next day to get it… It was only 16 euros and it works! It can be used to make text for greeting cards or craft projects. I actually already did a small easy art project that I used this typewriter for. Maybe I’ll show it later…
A New Work Lamp
Here’s a new update for my work space. I found this lamp for 9 euros plus delivery. Total costs 16 euros!
I love the shape and the copper shade! Beautiful…
My Workspace
I thought I’d show my current workspace at home. I have a corner in our living room for my desk. It’s still a work in progress but I’m starting to like the way it looks now. The desk is something that I need to replace in the future. I need a bigger one so that I can fit my Helmer drawer under it and have more table top space for diy. The computer could look a bit better also… well at least it works well (most of the time)!
I really love having a flat file! It stores all of my drawings and papers and is always close when I need them. I like the wood color: it looks so good with black and white color palette. The cheap desk lamp from Ikea is fine but I wish I could find a cool looking old desk lamp to replace it. Maybe some day I will…
