One of my favorite things to do is mix vintage items with new!
So when I was contacted by Holly, Community Manager from Chairish to participate in their Style Challenge I was more than happy to join in the fun!
Getting inspiration from their collections of ‘Vintage Furniture' I created an Office Design Board.
The reason why I chose to do an office is because I have a confession to make.
We NEVER use our living room. It’s basically a fun room for me to display a lot of my pretties. As far as ‘living’ in it, not so much! In fact if I was building a home today I would not even have a living room.
Not now, but someday I could see it becoming a lovely office.
Let’s take a closer look:
I would like a room with a pretty white hardwood flooring.
1.
The colors in this rug will pull the room together nicely.
2.
This industrial table is what inspired me to do an office. Don’t you love it? I like using things in unusual places. Oh yeah, I’m the lady who has an old laundry room table for a craft table. No surprise I picked this!
3.
A couple of art stools should fit perfectly.
4.
The minute I spied this old seed cabinet I knew it was what I wanted for storage. It’ll pull the red out of the rug. I love a red and aqua combo!
5.
A girls gotta have a comfy chair to rest her tush. Isn’t this a beaut?
6.
A sweet wicker side table to sit next to it.
7.
It was instant love when I spied this light fixture made from seltzer bottles.
8.
Now for some accessories. This set of map pictures are awesome!
9. & 10.
I don’t want to clutter the desk up too much, but this globe ties right in with the map pictures. And this old scale is perfect for holding papers!
11. & 12.
To soften the seed cabinet let’s add a couple of treasures to the top. I have a typewriter just like this and it is one of my favorite display pieces. The suitcases could also come in handy for storage.
Well there you have it, My Dream Office Design Board.
Now this is a room I could get use to. lol!
What do you think?

That looks like it will make a gorgeous room. You should check out polyvore.com you can put pics like that together and actually see what the room will be like...works with clothes too.
I can see this room in my mind's eye, Jann. These are all great pieces, and I love the color scheme. That rug really anchors the room. Fabulous! xxx ~ Nancy
