a look at my Desk area! 👀

I took some photos of my office a few weeks ago, and thought I'd share with you all what my area looks like! ✨

A - Green Tea! (no it's not pee) I'm a tea drinker nowadays as coffee tends to give me anxious jitters. Green tea is a staple for my morning routine and I love chai lattes when I'm feeling fancy.

B - My work laptop and phone. From Monday through Friday, I schedule patients for a clinic in the Seattle area (and also Alaska!). I'm extremely thankful to still be able to work for my doctor even after moving to California. 

C - If you look closely, you can see the crease of where my butt rests on this chair, LOL!

D - I totally recommend a chair mat for those who need to use an office chair on carpet. It works great and helps me roll from one desk to the other.

My work desk is a Tresanti 47" Adjustable Height Desk! I feel like this is a must if you have a job where you're constantly sitting. It's worth the investment, and your back will thank you later. I found this standing desk online for a discounted price (it needed a new battery which my friend helped me replace). I think you can buy this at Costco but that may have changed by now.

A - My other desk that I got from Ikea. I actually had this same desk when I lived in Seattle but it was black instead of white. When I moved, I gave it away to a friend's sister but I really loved the size of it, so I bought another when I got settled in Burbank.

B - My handy dandy Wacom! I still need to get some sort of arm for the tablet so it's easier to pull around when drawing...

C - Various notes, photos, and fun little things from friends and family that make me very happy!

D - My super loud mechanical keyboard lololol I want to eventually replace my keyboard, mouse and mousepad with white ones to match my desk's ~*~aesthetic~*~

I have a tv on the other side of the room; sometimes I will play switch games while sitting at my desk or put on a movie/show while drawing on my tablet.

A - Behind my desk I have this little drawer in the corner, and a bunch of pens and paintbrushes that I use on top of it, I'm a bit obsessed with mushrooms and snails at the moment!! I find it easier to keep material I frequently use out in the open, rather than stored away.

B - My good ol' whiteboard that I've been using as a weight log for all my kitties, lol. I try to put important reminders on here, too.

C - Plant babies!!! I looove plants. I find that they really brighten a room. My pothos have been going nuts lately, so I've been pinning up the vines and drooping them over things.

D - My calendar that says February on it, but it was in March when I took a photo, and now it's April. AUGH!!!! I prefer keeping track of events and tasks with a physical calendar versus a digilal one.

In the corner drawer, I have mostly art material stored away. The top drawer has various paints, some white out, a stapler, and a cute little cat USB.

On the opposite end of my desk, there's this little wet bar that I've transformed into a paint/plant watering station.

A - My printer/scanner that I've used to print out thank you notes and scan originals with.

B - Tiny little square computer!

C - These drawers are filled with stickers, prints, sleeves, shipping supplies and different kinds of paper.

D - I use this paper file organizing for all my smaller prints. It's super easy to carry around, and all my smaller prints fit perfectly in it.

The top drawer of this cabinet has a lot of my DS games and stationary I like to use. I'm a big fan of Pokémon. 🤓

That's pretty much it! Thanks for touring my desk area! Hope you enjoyed this post.

I'm working on a general update that I'll upload either later tonight, or tomorrow.
