I planned on finding a nice white lacquered top sawhorse desk from Ikea yesterday when I go to Chicago to visit a friend for the day. My trip also doubled as work as I will had an eye out for aqua, mint, turquoise, coral & peach decor for an virtual design client. We hit up Z Gallerie as well. The good people over there replied to an instagram pic of mine to let me know they are in the Chicago area. Now if only they bring one to Milwaukee.
All of my furniture is black so I want to have a white desk to contrast from the black wall in my den. I think a white blank canvas for a workspace is so ideal. But after spending an ungodly amount of time there…4 hours to be exact….we made our way to the warehouse part to get the white wooden top to go with two black sawhorse legs only to find out it wasn’t in stock. So I have to order it.
I wouldn’t say my trip was unsuccessful as I was able to get a lotnof thinks I need for my office as well and bedroom. And I found tons of inspiration for my client which I will show you in another post.
