The past month I’ve been doing a bit of spring cleaning to the apartment. Old pillows out, new ones soon to be sewn. My vintage chairs are at the upholsterer’s getting some love, my abstract painting is nearly finished and now my office is begging for a little love.
For as much time as I spend there, I think it’s fair that I spend time fixing it up and making it a place that I love and that keeps me inspired. As of late, I am sick of my rug. I bought it for about $75 for Urban Outfitters and it’s had a good run, but I’m thinking it might be time for something new. One thing I’m considering this go around is the fact that there’s a good amount of traffic in and out of my office. Oliver also spends a lot of time laying on the floor in there and let’s face it, he’s not always perfectly clean. The yellow and white chevron rug I have now shows dirt and things very easily, so the next one needs to probably be darker.
Naturally, West Elm is my go-to spot for rugs. I love just about everything they come up with and I’ve really fallen for their rugs in the past few months. Of course, one of my favorites is that white fluffy one, which is beautiful, but probably not the best choice for this room. Wah.
I’ve got a birthday coming up, maybe I should put one of these on the wish list! Which would you put in your office?
