The day to day adventures of turning a 22 year old house into something updated, fun, and fresh for this family of five.

More Home Office updates.

So, as you can see here we decided to go with the Ethan office chair, a modern white chair, from World Market.  Before buying, I was still really undecided on what I wanted, so we decided to stop by the store to see it in person.  The minute I sat down, I knew it was the chair for us.  SO comfortable.  Seriously.  My visions of having something cushy to sink in to, just melted away.  I assumed the chair I wanted look wise, would not be the chair I wanted hiney wise.  Not true.  
They also had a banker's type chair that my husband was favoring, but after he tried out the Ethan chair, he was sold too. 





How come every gosh darn thing we buy is assemble it yourself?  LOL!
At least this item only took about 5 minutes.




I could go ON and ON about the frustrations we had with getting this desk.  Reminder to self: check reviews of local furniture stores before proceeding with purchase!  Apparently the specific store we dealt with is known for not delivering on time and just feeding you lies.  Of course, we didn't realize this until after we'd paid and placed our order, and waited over two weeks when we were told it would be 3 days.   BUT.. it finally came.






While we did have to attach the legs, it was pretty much in one piece.  Thank goodness.  ha!  Ignore our cords.  We need to replace this desktop with a laptop, but until then, I guess our cords will just show.  But hopefully not quite this badly.. sheesh!  I really need to do something about that!
