So I set out this morning to find a new desk for my new iMac that I received yesterday. for the last 2 months I’ve been working on mom and dad’s kitchen bar height table, hovering over my tiny 13 inch macbook. it was time for an upgrade.

my mission:

• cheapo. under $200.
• had to match decor in mom’s red and black “Paris Room”
• needed it today. (i’m impatient).
• minimal assembly.

On recommendations via twitter, I checked out target, IKEA, cost plus, and back to IKEA where i settled on a simple desk top and 2 legs. cheapo. classy. functional. the whole desk cost me $100. FTW! (Visit the photo on flickr for more info on each piece)

I had to take apart my sister’s boys’ racetrack to put the desk up. they are gonna be livid, seeing as though they are already pissed i “took over their room”

So I’ll be working from mom and dad’s for a few more months, and very excited about the new work area.

“Mom, can you send up a sandwich?”
