With the larger pieces ordered, it was time to move to some accent pieces. I had seen the Dot Inlay Side Tables by West Elm on Joanna's blog, A Cup of Jo, and wanted to check them out so we made the trip this past Saturday. In person, they were even better and both the hubby and I agreed they were a must.
While chatting with the sales associate at West Elm, he mentioned that the Marble Oval Coffee Table might look great with the couches and side tables so we went to take a look. It looks so good next to the side tables that we didn't second guess it and added it to our order.
Last but not least to the trip was stopping by IKEA where our interior designer said we would be able to find a cowhide rug for much less than what we were seeing online. I was shocked and how nice the rugs were and the price. Crazy. So, we picked up the one we liked best and headed home feeling that we at least got a small portion of the room done.
Sunday was spent picking out purple paint because, well, I really want a cozy purple room and with all the jewel tones we have picked out, I think it is going to be a great compliment. Of all the spaces in the home, this room is where my truly eclectic side is coming out and I am having such a great time designing it.
The rest of the details of the room will come together when I bring our interior designer back in after the holidays (art, bar cart, record player stand, wallpaper, bookshelves and a larger rug to go under the cowhide are all on the list) but for now, the room is beginning to feel more like a part of the home and less like the empty space we have been avoiding. I will be sure to keep you posted on other items we pick up and of course will share photos as it all comes together.
Happy Monday.
Eclectic...just like you!
