My new blog spot....


I spent the better part of last year decorating my sitting room -
you can see photos of the big reveal here.

 I chose not to show much of the bay window area
where I had placed a sort of 'blah' desk.

When designing this room I really wanted to adhere
to my belief that EVERY room in a home should be 
used regularly.  So I saw this room doing double duty -functioning as 
both a formal sitting room and the 
perfect office for yours truly!  

I love the front facing window, the loads of light
that the room benefits from, but the desk that I had originally painted a 
creamy white, not so much.  Plus, the creamy color sort of 
just faded away in the room.



Well here is my desk today - obviously she can no longer
be described as 'blah'.  I would say she is more 
'va va voom'! {SW Quite Coral}

It is certainly a departure from my neutral comfort zone.

For now, I love it.

What do you think?

  3. Love the color and your blog! Thanks for an update! What do you do for decorating as far as outside/ door? I find myself wanting to be simple, but come home with a fake 6 foot spider web and spider!?!?!

  6. I think it looks great and I'm so glad you are making a point to use it. We were very determined to not have and rooms in this house that we don't use regularly.
