With the new school year, we wanted to create a beautiful and functional work nook for Neah to keep her motivated all year long. Kaiyah loves to copy her big sister, so naturally, she needed a similar workspace of her own! We have a <a href=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/index.php\/2020\/08\/15\/how-to-make-a-simple-and-affordable-diy-desk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DIY Pocket Desk<\/a> blog post that shares all the details on this build!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1867\" height=\"1400\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/DSC02170-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4794\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>This post contains affiliate links and we will earn a small commission, at no extra charge to you, if you make a purchase using any of our links.<\/strong> <strong>Thank you for your continued support!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6021375135080120\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3858885546\"><\/ins>\r\n\t<script>\r\n         (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t<\/script>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adding a Pop of Color<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Including a pop of color in an otherwise neutral space, is a great way to add a fresh look! Neah&#8217;s entire bedroom is painted in Sherwin Williams Accessible Beige which isn&#8217;t her favorite. So Bernard and I gave her the important job of choosing a new color for the nook accent wall. I can&#8217;t say I was surprised when she chose pink but we went along with it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns no-bottom-margin is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3024\" height=\"4032\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/07-23-2022-13-35-11-full.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4779\"\/><figcaption>Shop our FAVORITE paint supplies <a href=\"https:\/\/liketk.it\/3GueX\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3024\" height=\"4032\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/07-24-2022-17-48-20-full.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4777\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We decided to add some small paint details to the accent wall just to create visual interest.

The girls&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/index.php\/2020\/08\/15\/how-to-make-a-simple-and-affordable-diy-desk\/\">DIY Pocket Desks<\/a> allow for additional storage options and so I included some OXO adjustable drawer bins.
