Part of our energy this year is making our house more functional.
We found while we loved our living room, it was totally not functional.
I blogged previously, after one night of drinking and watching Shark Tank, Joe rearranged our room.
We loved it but it was missing something on the far wall.
After much consideration, we decided to make this a desk that way we could conduct all of our "living" on the main floor and not have to run up and down the stairs.
Looking for a desk was not easy.
First, I thought we would try to match the browns of the current wood but that proved to be too hard. Then we both wanted different things in a desk.
I wanted it to fit in with the rest of our furniture as we may not always live in this house and Joe wanted something big enough and make of good wood that he could spread out all of his stuff on it.
As we looked everywhere, and yes I mean everywhere, we both loved the idea of a little hutch and decided that going with black finish was the best options because all our furniture in our bedroom is black, as well as the new guestroom, and all of the basement furniture.
After looking everywhere, we headed back to Belfort Furniture in Dulles.
We went in and were out with our desk in our car in less than 30 minutes.
It was heavy but both Joe and I carried it upstairs and but the legs one which took all of 5 minutes.
WAHOO!!!
Our new living area!
Joe is in love with his new man area and I now need to find something to will do as a better chair.
For right now we are just using the leather cube that went with our leather chairs which actually works well but I think we need something more long term.
