A new seat

When I revealed Lizzie's room redo last February, I was still missing an oh-so-important item...the perfect desk chair. I scoured local thrift and discount stores for a cute and unique chair that would suit her new "tween" look.

This is the room just after we finished with temporary kitchen chair. Not comfy or pretty, definitely more suited to dining than sitting at a desk.

Today we picked up this charming chair, Umbra's award winning "Oh" chair, in the perfect shade of lime green to complement the rest of Lizzie's room. We both love the pop of bright colour against the white walls. The chair comes in black and white too, but we just could resist the green. Plus Lizzie finds it pretty comfy.

Doesn't it look great? And it was on sale too! We love a bargain around here.

Very cute and hip, too. Lizzie should get a lot of homework done there! Cool!
