CAMPAIGN DESK REVEAL!

First things first, please excuse the orange tinge on the wall. Nothing I did with the lighting worked to fix it. That’s how strong of an orange that Martha Stewart “Saffron” is!

I haven’t found a chair for the desk so here it is all plain and lonely!

Then I brought in one of my chairs from the breakfast table because I figured I needed something better to show you guys. I like how the wood of the chairs plays off the wood in the room. I may just use this one and change out the fabric!

I had this bright idea to take pictures of my son while he was working at the desk!

I swear this is the easiest prop I’ve ever put together! AND…I think its the best one yet!

In an email, someone suggested the little pencil gripper thingy for my son to better his grip with the pencil and guess what? It worked like a charm!

Wanna know what he was writing on the paper?

Have a GREAT Monday!
