Oh, hello there! Don’t look at me like that; I know I’ve been gone for . . . well, an entire month. But life has been a trip recently. TL;DR version? My partner and I broke up (very non-dramatically) and the end result is that I rather suddenly have to leave Australia.
Excitingly, this means I get to move in with my best friends in Canada!
Less excitingly, it has meant tons of life admin has been going on over the past month, hence the unexpected break. However, I am back and almost obscenely excited to share today’s post with you.
(Mainly to give it some validity. Did I just spend 2 months making over an office space to only use it for three weeks? Yes, yes, I did. So you better enjoy it!)
Our current apartment is super quirky, although a wee bit small, so my new office is quite literally a section of the wall in our main living area. But have no fear – that has not stopped me from turning it into something truly beautiful!
Naturally, my home office makeover was filled with DIYs and crafts . . . not to mention, a chunky Youtube video. In fact, this is the first video on my new Youtube channel so I would love it if you checked it out and subscribed to me over on there too!
Alas, I am devastated to only get to work in this lovely space for a few weeks – but, hey! I guess it means we’ll get another office makeover video once I reach Canada, right?
Plus – I will be sharing all the written tutorials for the DIYs over the next month for you guys to recreate at home! For now, grab a cup of coffee, have a watch of my video, and drop me a comment down below telling me what you think!
Your office makeover is beautiful! I’m sorry to hear about your breakup. I will check out your YouTube channel.
xoxo

Thank you, Shauna! 🙂
I absolutely love this! The colours, plants, pots and ornaments have such a rustic feel. It’s sad you only get to work there for three weeks but I’m sure you will love working in such a beautiful setting x
Thank you so much, Sophie! It is definitely an inspiring place to work from 🙂 x
I love what you’ve done with this little space! That little shelf unit is so amazing! That is sad to put all that work in and only get to use the space for a short time. I’m wishing you the best for your move and this next chapter of life in Canada 🙂
Thank you for reading & your kind words! I’m glad you enjoyed the DIY projects 🙂
I’m sorry to hear about your break up, but the move to Canada sounds very exciting! Lovely office reveal too, your desk looks so cool I love the tiles.
Thank you, Anika! I’m definitely going to create more stuff with tiles in the future tbh 🙂
girl this is such a cute spot 🙂 i love how unique it is and love all the plants too! i gotta make my desk look as neat as this 🙂
Thank you so much! 🙂 It’s definitely my fave part of the house!
Unfortunate that you couldn’t use it for a longer duration but I’m sure you’ll have an even better space in the new space! Hope you have a good move.
I love a good office tour. I like to watch them on YouTube. You have a pretty small office. Thank you for sharing your creative work space.
