On My Desk

I just recently purchased a desk and have been looking for desk chairs to accompany my desk because the wooden dining table chair has proven to be both unstable and uncomfortable. Through my desk chair searching I stumbled upon a blog simply about things onmydesk. Brilliant! Now I can pry into people's personal lives while getting inspiration for what to do with my own at home workspace. I would share a picture of my own… but I literally just got my desk a week ago and nothing much is on it yet.

I tried out a desk chair just like this one at Ikea an

d it was awfully uncomfortable - cheap but not worth the physical therapy bills.

This is more what I would be going for if I had a bit more space/light/time/creativity.



Likes: Already stated, pry into what people stare at for hours on end - also, get some neat storage ideas.


Dislikes: Everyone who submits their workspace are just doing it to promote their blogs. I wish we could get some everyday people in here…

Design*Sponge

Alright, let's start off on a good foot with one of my favorite blogs. When all other things on the internet are boring, uninteresting, or ugly, I can always trust Design*Sponge. Written by a young, hipster Martha Stewart, this blog covers super cute weddings, cards, re-finishing furniture and occasionally foodie things.

Honestly though? I don't check this blog but every few weeks when I can gorge on a 50+ posts at once.

Likes: Her wedding everything. Sample photos*:

Yes, creepy little people on top, but so simple and delicious looking WITHOUT fondant (disgusting stuff).

The entertainment - a banjo? Genius.

Her wedding was so great that she has five posts about it as seen here: Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four, Part Five

Dislikes: Sometimes I feel overwhelmed by the amount of posts in a day! And sometimes there is too much crafty stuff. I'm not a crafter, but I can appreciate small doses of it.
