I wouldn’t paint the desk as I think it will look cheap. Your mix of color and wood is so much more interesting than many sterile offices we see posted here. The only way to pick a desk chair is to sit in several. Ask me how many physical therapy sessions it took to correct the effects of the wrong desk chair I used trying to be fashionable. Office chairs are designed to correct posture problems at working desks.

Hello Janet! Glad you are well and blessed. I am not a pro but I would love to help with this office!

I agree with remodeling1840 to not paint furniture yet. I like the room's feel of vintage glam, retro? Are you keeping the wall color?

I would not mind more pics of the other side of the room. Something about the desk area needs to change and be more functional. Does this desk work for you? More storage can be in closet shelves or in a dresser drawer.

Off the top of my head: desk in front of the window with a new window treatment, dresser across from the bed. Relocate or get rid of all small tables and stools. Get new desk hardware in maybe oil rubbed bronze or black.

Keep us posted! This will be fun.

Although now you also have two posts asking the same question. If you can, try to delete one.

Hi Ms. Janet! I'm following this thread. Every time you post we will all be able to see incl 1840 and Holly. Just keep us posted. If you are new on Houzz dilemmas, usually at least 1 pro will weigh in after a day or 2.

Hello Ms. Janet, any updates?
