desk du jour

i commented after spotting this space on christina's blog and she wrote back saying she'd thought of my desk du jour feature when she posted it! if you're not familiar with her blog... run, don't walk. she is fabulous and her kiddies — twin girls and triplet boys! — are the cutest things you've ever seen.
detailed moulding + lacquered bookcases = my dream office. seriously this space feels like perfection to me. i even spy tulips in the corner!

p.s. on a totally unrelated note, what are your thoughts on twitter? use it? love it? recommend it? is it time for me to take the plunge?

Wow, twins and then triplets?! That's insane. Love the desk, still need to get one! Too many to choose from...

As far as Twitter goes...don't have it, don't really think I need it. Just my opinion though, I'm sure you'll get many different opinions about it. :)

Ahh, thanks, darling!

Yes I agree with you, this space feels like perfection. I hope life equally feels like perfection for you. I really do think you are living the dream.

I'm not a savvy Twitter user. I know some people really love it though.

MacKenzie,

I'm so glad you stopped by my blog last week. Now, I've discovered yours! So love to find new blogs that speak to me. Yours is fab. Hope you are well.

Love this space! All that black lacquer is to die for! I've tried to get into Twitter but I just can't seem to. I like reading other people's tweets though! xx

Ooo that moulding at the top of the bookcases is so interesting!

Don't have twitter, never will. I'm on the internet enough as it is.

Ohhh Twitter...mixed feelings...I love it for promoting PB, and I love reading other peoples tweets...but am not so good at tweeting myself...Summer time resolution, perhaps? Join! Jump in! The water is nice!

Those bookcases are absolute heaven!! Oh to some day have an office like that. And I love that tuffty gray chair so much!!

Averill said...

That IS an amazing bookcase. The white molding is particularly fabulous (and unique!). As for Twitter, never tried it...but I sort of feel like I'm connected enough as it is, ya know?

What a dream office! I didn't know Christina had triplets and twins -- all I can say is WOW.

I recently jumped on the Twitter bandwagon. I don't use it that often but I'm finding it a good source of information.

As for the World Cup even if it is in Africa I'm sure the atmosphere in Europe will be great when its game time. Its a pretty straightforward tournament to follow and I hope you enjoy it!

Unknown said...

Total perfection, I agree! Love it! I love that grey upholstered chair! I use Twitter to reblog giveaways and stuff, that's about it. I have enough on my plate with blogging and FB! XO

i loooove twitter!!!

Cara Kuhl said...

Love that chair, those shelves, oh my! :) I think I've just found the twitter balance, when I first joined I felt too plugged in, if that's possible :) Now I updated once or twice a day and it's the appropriate balance for me ~ have fun with it!

Post Grad Hair Cut said...

Love the simplicity of that desk combined with the chair. Nice choice!

I am loving the set up of the desk surrounded by all those books!

See now that is my dream of motherhood...all five in "two sittings." Off to visit :)

Lovely MacKenzie! I always say that a home without books make me nervous. Show what you read - show who you are! Stunning spot! And the mouldings, I did not see them until now. Divine!

I only use twitter for giveaways (mine and others!) and an occasional post. I send out info. But never check. I am pretty useless, I realize now....

A warm hug to you my friend,

Mon

Ooohh I want this office too!

I joined twitter a while ago but never really knew how to use it...My friend just taught me so now I "tweet" (you'll understand that term once you sign up haha)...Honestly tho, not so sure what the point of twitter is..I'm definately not addictive, and im definately not loving it, but it seems like others do!

Design Candy said...

So happy I popped by today! Loving this desk!

Love Twitter - took me awhile to figure it out to make it work for me - I wrote a blog post about it

That is not an office, it's a peace of heaven. Absolutely glamorous!

Soren Duus said...

I concur, GlamourCoach. Just look at those stylish bookcases surrounding the minimalistic table. Now this layout would really go well for the professionals like accountants or lawyers. That's going to be a trendy office for them.
