For quite a while now I've been on the lookout for a sweet little desk for my boys to use for doing homework, looking up "stuff" on Google and working on projects. I have been very inspired by cute study areas such as these...
Aren't they all GORGEOUS?!? I have been itching to create a cute little study nook of our own and finally in Vinnie's this morning I found this...
A gorgeous wooden vintage desk for just $10!!! AND they now have FREE delivery! I LOVE it, 4 drawers for lots of paper and craft supplies and the 2 shelves will be perfect for books, mini-figs, pottery creations and whatever else the munchkins deem necessary :-)
I also spotted this fab chair last month at council clean up, FREE on the side of the road!
I am planning to paint the desk a lovely pale vintage blue (I won't need to bother giving it the distressed look, my boys will sort that out ;-), red gloss on the chair and lots of little bits and pieces on the desk such as the lovely retro orange lamp I got earlier this year at a flea market.
Tip: If you are ever looking for inspiration to decorate your kids' rooms you need look no further than The Boo and The Boy - a fantastic blog full of gorgeous rooms, designs and ideas!

Ooh that'll look great! Love the fact that the chair was free (kerching!)and I have no doubt that boys will unintentionally sort out a distressed look!

what a score! i think the chair looks good with the desk too :) lucky boys.
that desk has great lines and lucky for you- it's already white- so much easier to paint over!
I seriously love every picture. Off to check out the Boo and the Boy! x
So glad you found the desk and chair you needed - and, oh my gosh I loved scrolling down through all of those colorful and fabulous study spaces you shared!
