Creating More Space
Our house is pretty small, so it’s important for us to be able to make the most out of what little space we do have. Unfortunately, neither my husband nor I are very adept at figuring out the best way to arrange furniture in a particular room, which is why the whole house has a cramped feeling to it.
Anyway, today we’re trying to figure out how to get more space in the spare room. Jerry currently uses it as an office, and it is so cluttered that I can barely stomach going in there. He’s got one of those huge computer desks that an executive might use, even though his monitor and keyboard take up just one tiny corner. The rest of the desk is covered with paperwork and junk, and looks pretty bad!
We want to get rid of the desk, replace it with a smaller hutch, and then buy a filing cabinet or two to keep the papers in order. That ought to give us more space in the room and help with organization, both of which are desperately needed in that area.
