Although the room is still in the "works" I have photos to share. The kids are already using it for doing their homework.
I put this one in plain sight. I could always use a "brightner" for my day.
I love the saying on this tiny sign. It also ties all the colors of the room together. There is a bit of that country red in the curtain and the matching runner.
This is a photo standing just outside the door. The chair will be upgraded to something more comfortable, and that wooden chair will be an extra for family gatherings. Oh, see the candles on the wall photo above the desk? Those candles have battery operated lights, so I can flip a switch on it to make it look like burning candles. Nice to have if the power goes out.
I took items I already had and decorated some of the shelves.
The top framed piece is an embroidered piece I made for the farmer's market one year.
It did not sell, so I'm enjoying it. I would like to make another one that says "Make it Amazing." Or even one that says "Cultivate Joy."
Hubby asked why the decanter had zero bourbon in it. Ha, ha! It'll stay that way too. For now. Maybe.

In the process of moving books, I found some I haven't read, and forgot I had. The book ends are from my Uncle, and the glass globe paperweight is from my days behind a desk 40-plus hours a week.

I haven't decided if I want to put a sheer up behind the valance in the window. I like it the way it is.
Better picture of the runner.
Re-purposed a table my Dad gave me years ago, and made it into a plant stand. The typewriter is an antique we thrifted a few years back, and now it has a perfect place for it. However, if it becomes a dust collector, I'll have to decide if it will stay or not.
Battery operated radio/book ends. I've had these for years. I just moved them from one room to this room now.
And there you have it - the study.
It needs a few more things, and I have a few piles to sort inside the desk, but it's looking pretty good. It feels good to have one room completely cleaned, deep cleaned, and organized.
