a spot to call his own

The fact is, we live in the country...no wireless Internet....still a dial-up connection. The fact is, we live in a brick house...a double brick to be exact. The house was bricked, then re-bricked over that as part of the construction in 1857. Walls are thick.....so thick that we are fortunate to even have two phone lines entering the house----one in the kitchen and one in the den for the satellite dish. So...in the end, we need a place in the kitchen to house our computer. I just recently redid this area by marrying a cast off table with a set of drawers. Now our kitchen holds a little work area - and our little laptop has a spot to call his own.

What a charming spot to sit and think and browse the internet. I love the two pieces you put together and the color is perfection!

It is beautiful. Love that scale. It was raining inside the pantry of our old house on Friday and Joe just calmly says "the wind is blowing in the wrong direction" which makes me rather nutty. He is used to old houses and I am not. Our internet is also terribly slow there. You made the most of this space and it is gorgeous. Thank you for visiting me. Olive

I want to Pin this (but thought I would ask first). I L-O-V-E that drawer piece on top of the table!! I will be keeping an eye out for one of those, it would be perfect for jewelry tools and stuff!
