A Mini Makeover In My Den: Before & After Photos

I recently did a mini makeover in my den, and today I’m sharing all of the details, and a bunch of before & after photos!

This all started when I was recently gifted these Pottery Barn Spear Leather Armchairs in Vintage Caramel. Full disclosure- they sent them to me to be photographed in my home.

You guys, they are beautiful. And comfortable. And the perfect chairs for my den.

For years, we have had these Pottery Barn Seagrass Chairs in our den. I also loved them, but I was just ready for a change. Coincidentally, I had mentioned on Instagram recently that I was thinking of new chairs for this space, and I had no idea what that change was going to be. Seriously like a week later Pottery Barn reached out.

Once I received the chairs I knew the rug wasn’t going to work. The rug I had in here (the Pottery Barn Chunky Wool Jute Rug) looked amazing with the chairs, but the size was just too small. I knew I needed a 6’x9′ instead.

Amazon to the rescue. I love Loloi rugs, so I was looking through the options, and this Loloi Skye Collection in Natural & Sand came up. I did a quick design board to see how it would look and ordered it. It’s perfect!

Lucky for everyone involved, my mom LOVES these chairs, so they are living happily ever after at my mom’s house

And I get a new chair to have my morning coffee! Side note- it’s not pictured in this photo, but I moved our Lulu & Georgia Pouf to the den, and we love it as an ottoman!
