It is official. I have officially grown out of my small desk space in the kitchen....
Yes, I do have a nice big desk at our studio, but this little space is where I do all of my work when I'm at home.
So, Steve had the idea of turning this area into a beautiful office for me.
In all honesty, we barely ever use this side of the sun room, and it's so pretty that it seems like a shame not to use it more often.
Since our home has such an open floor plan, it is important that the office be pretty yet functional. So, here is what I am thinking....
My new bloggy friend, Angela introduced me to a new furniture resource called Artesia.
Their Ellington Wall Library would fit perfectly against the back wall, replacing the long seating area. I am going to cover all of my three ring binders with linen, so they can be displayed in the upper glass cabinets along with other pretty collections...
Angela and Things That Inspire introduced me to Tritter Feefer, a furniture manufacturer with a funny name that makes beautiful pieces. I fell in love with the Natalie desk. I think it will look beautiful in front of the Ellington cabinet and will give me much more room than my existing desk.
I am going to pair the desk with my antique Belgian arm chair. I bought two of them from Dan Marty a couple of years ago. One sits here by my desk in Channel Islands.
Everyone always asks me when I am going to recover the seat. Never! I think the original tattered covering (or what's left of it) gives my chairs their charm.
I'd love to hear what your think. Also, you really should check out Artesia and Tritter Feefer. Here are some of my favorite pieces....
From Artesia, their Flemish collection is absolutely beautiful. I am drawn to the slim lines and the rustic grey finish of these pieces.
The New Lancaster Vitrina is gorgeous.
Love the detailing of this Villiers bed.
Their English Collection is also beautiful, which includes some pretty pieces with caning, like this Carson chair.
Tritter Feefer makes some unique pieces with fantastic finishes.
The Directoire dining table is a nice clean lined dining table. Something I am always trying to find!
They also make some lovely round dining tables. This Baluster table caught my eye.
While I was looking for desks, I saw this Elizabeth Writing Desk. So pretty!
Loved the finish on the Gussie Demi Lune....
and the rustic feel of the Peasant Coffee Table.
Unfortunately, both of these companies are wholesale. But, if you are interested in any of their pieces, I can help!
