We have been playing musical rooms in my house over the last few months in preparation for a third child. We now have an official guest room/office so I am slowly trying to get it organized so it appears that way instead of junk room.
I needed a side table but didn’t want a traditional nightstand because I was looking for more surface space and storage. Enter the IKEA Vika Amons table…
It is a small work table/desk and is $20 so in other words it fit the bill perfectly! I put it together in less than an hour, which at 9 months pregnant, earns it even more points!! In the future this will serve as nightstand and catchall for guests but in the meantime I will be using it as an extra desk/workspace.
I stuck a basket underneath for extra storage of magazines and some rolled papers.
If this table ends up staying here permanently, I will seriously consider skirting it.
I finally have a place for my ever-growing stationery collection.
Maybe this colorful little space will encourage me to get all of those thank-you
cards done for baby gifts!
Love this Target dollar bin sign…
Still waiting to use those cute washi tapes!
This bedroom has become my suite since I can’t sleep with Taylor right now.
These items must be within arm’s reach these days…
This desk/nightstand gives you an idea of why I lovingly refer to this room as “the room of color.”
I am sure I will be zhushing this room for eons because somehow all of my colorful accessories migrate here but I like the happy vibe it gives off.
We also moved this cabinet in here…
We keep most of our books in there and they just add to the color explosion!
Along with the runner I moved from the kitchen.
I also liked that we could move this table and use it as a desk for the boys down the road. It may be inexpensive but hey if it is good enough for Lake Bell, than it’s good enough for our boys 🙂
Anyone happen to see her home featured on Vogue.com?
Hey there little Vika Amons desk!
Yep! She used the same one just with the silver legs.

What a versatile little piece! I think that's a perfect candidate for some dipped legs. 🙂 Hope all is going well with baby!
