Okay, I’ve been looking for a desk for over at The Love Nest for, um, a year and a half? Wobbled back and forth on what I wanted. Couldn’t decide. Try to convince SuperGuy to make me one. That didn’t work out. Kept looking. Finally found this one at Costco.

Simple. Pull out keyboard drawer…which you can see, I’m not using. Has a black glass top…which my optical mouse won’t work on, so I have to put a folder under my mouse to get it to work.

Found this mesh chair at Staples. It’s cool (not as in neato, as in temperature-wise) and infinitely adjustable.Why is it so hard to find a comfortable desk chair?? Do you have one that you love?
So I’m not in love with this setup but I like it. (Still holding out to talk SuperGuy into making me one out of mahogany. We’ll see.) I do really love having a space to work in when I’m over at The Love Nest though. I was tired of dragging everything out to the dining table, and taking it all back away. Rinse and repeat. Maybe this means I’ll get more work done while I’m at The Love Nest. Maybe. ![]()

I’ve never been happy with my set up either! Does the mouse not work b/c it’s glass or b/c it’s see through? If it’s b/c it’s see through, could you tape a piece of black paper on the underside of the glass?
It’s pretty though. And yeah, I’m so with you on the challenge of finding a good desk chair.
Oh, Nancy! I’m going to try that!
I have an ‘okay’ desk but I need a larger one. I purchased a nice painted piece of decorative wood last year and asked Hubby if he would do the rest, the legs, etc. The painted piece is still waiting for him. *sighs* Sometimes I guess it’s just best to go buy a desk ready made.

I love it! I love my new desk…I — um — borrowed it from my college student son;)
This desk and chair are both great. Love your finds!
If pressed, I think that someone might admit that all three dimensions of the desk (height, depth, width) have not been decided and the table is waiting on those. Wood is sitting in the garage, saws are sharp, … I’m just saying…
