VIP Home: Transforming a Closet to an Office, Part 1

IMG_9008

Hello, fabulouses, and welcome back to the blog!

This January, I am kicking off a month-long home series of my Closet-to-Office transformation! I am going to talk about each aspect–the inspiration + color, organization + Pinterest ideas, and a full reveal! So, be sure to come back each Monday to see a little bit more of the transformation *wink*

Now, for this week’s VIP Home post, I am going to chat about the color + inspiration behind going pink with my closet-now-office space :)

For starters, I never had a pink room growing up because I was a huge tomboy and was “too cool” for a pink room *wink* Now, a feminine fashionista, I decided it was time for a pink room…but not my bedroom…nor my kitchen (although I thought about it *wink*)…and not my closet. So, that only left my kwirky office space. 

One reason I think pink is such a fitting color for my office/blogging headquarters is because pink is universal for the love of oneself and of others. How fitting for a space where I want to sit down and write to spread positivity while expressing myself! Pink is also synonymously associated with the words sweet, nice, playful, cute, charming, and feminine.

I knew I needed a place to blog, but my apartment is a bit cramped. So, I did what my Gran did in one of her spare bedrooms and converted the closet into an office with “technical” help from my dad, of course *wink* I mentioned the organizing of my closet on a blog several months ago; however, things have changed since then…Like I learned wire shelves were financially a great idea…but not functionally a great idea haha So, I have changed some shelving, added DIY organization (which will be featured later), and other knick knacks.

After much rearranging, redoing, and probably a few tears *wink*, my office space is finally starting to feel like a real office space:) *sigh of relief*

Now, I am off to put the finishing touches on a DIY tack board. Be sure to come back next week to see the beginnings of my closet-to-office space!

Stay Fabulous,
