Reading Rainbow

Earlier on here I posted about what I thought I was going to do with our Reading Room.  When I finally finished the campaign dresser, I realized that it wasn't going to work in the dining room but might be perfect in the Reading Room for an entertainment center.  So we moved it over there and I got a new couch:

Then we rearranged a lot of the stuff.

Now I am getting closer to finishing the Reading Room and I've realized that it's become more of a Reading Rainbow Room.  This is perfectly fine with me, but we'll have to see how S reacts when he gets home.  Here are some preliminary shots (please don't judge my awful skills of a photographer...).  I'll also be including the full process of refinishing the dresser/hutch in a later post.

...console table as you walk in...

lamps are from Last Call and I'm thinking of redoing in blue.  Thoughts?

...couch (this is pretty close to the actual color), console table, front door, purple drapes (we're rotating in a clockwise direction)...

...front door, couch, secretary...

...full shot of the secretary...

...closer look of the top of the secretary...

...wall of art (and rufus)...

...another view of the art wall with the edge of the dresser...

...art wall and the dresser/hutch...

 

...dresser bottom (still missing a piece of hardware) with the rug...

I still need two/three ottomans for in front of the couch (I'm thinking small and square) and a comfy chair (maybe this?) for the corner between the art wall and the window wall, but it's coming along. :)

*note: I took these pictures bright and early this morning and will redo to less blurry ones this afternoon to cause less eye strain.
