Maybe I shouldn't say coming together, lol. In all honestly nothing is actually in the space, but things have been ordered, which is major progress in this ol' book!
Yesterday we bit the bullet and bought THIS filing console:
and this desk:
..which, the desk isn't as red looking in person, it is more of a walnut color. If you've been around for my previous ponderings on the office, you'll remember that my husband wanted this style of desk. Honestly, it is growing on me and I'm excited about seeing it in the room.
We REALLY debated on the console since it is such a strong piece color wise, and part of me is regretting not getting it in black instead,
but it is on its way (in RED!)... so we shall see if it works! lol.
I'll be headed to a Lowes in our area to check out this rug today.. LINK HERE.
The price is great for an 8x10, but I'm a little concerned the curvy ornate desk, with the Chinoiserie-style console, and then such a boldly patterned rug might be a little overkill. Plus since this room is joined with the dining area, I want matching rugs for both. Pattern Pattern Pattern. I'm sure it will all come together, it's just making me nervous while we wait for everything to come in.
We're stuck on a chair though. Modern desk chair, or more traditional cushy chair? I love both, and I like the white in THIS chair,
but I want something I can really sink into also. Maybe something like THIS..
Too executive looking? We're also debating just finding a white slipped wingback and attaching casters the the bottom. Decisions, Decisions. What kind of chair would YOU go with?

Go for the cushy chair. What did you think of the rug in person?
