MY NEW NAVY LOUIS CHAIR – COCOCOZY OFFICE DECORATING!

December 20, 2012
  • Share
COCOCOZY HQ office space with a vintage brass Stiffel lamp and white orchid sitting on a White Laquer Fertwork Parsons Desk, navy Louis chair with COCOCOZY Logo linen on the front and COCOCOZY Fence in navy on the back

Here’s a new addition to COCOCOZY Headquarters (HQ) in Beverly Hills!  A side chair with an oval back upholstered with my own fabric from the COCOCOZY fabric collection.  A little navy chair.  At first I wasn’t sure I liked it but now I’m loving it!

My little tiny tiny office is starting to come together!

I went with a dark blue matte finish for the chair and chose navy COCOCOZY Logo linen on the front and COCOCOZY Fence in navy on the back.  The dull matte finish is a nice contrast to the glossy white desk I think and my vintage brass Stiffel lamp.

The Louis Side Chairs is from Ballard.  Ballard’s p.r. people asked me to customize my own chair earlier this fall.  So I did. I chose the fabric from our collection and the color, CM who runs operations at COCOCOZY sent the fabric to them and just yesterday Jenn West (aka JW) who assists at COCOCOZY HQ took these photos (great photos JW!) with the huge NSR camera I bought last year that I never use.  Well it got put to good use yesterday. &nbsp

What do you think of our little office addition?  Like or dislike?

Happy Thursday!

P.S.  Am blogging this morning from my sister DS’s warm comfy house after my unplanned move out of my cold water damaged house yesterday.  Feel very lucky to have a cute sweet nice older sister (she is 10 months older than me) who told me as I moved several huge suitcases into her house, “this is your home”.  Mr. Boo, my dog, is also here.  He’s welcomed too but if he chews anything up he will have literally worn out his welcome.  Watch it Mr. Boo. (see yesterday’s post if you don’t know what happened)

P.P.S.  My mom has been so fantastic through this whole thing.  She knows I’ve been stressed but she continues to give good advice about solving the problem.

P.P.P.S.  I mentioned silver linings yesterday.  In the middle of the move, one of my moving guys said to me…”Lady, how old are you?”.  I asked, “How old do you think.”  He said, “Oh maybe 19, 20 or 21”.  This nice moving guy made my day!  I’d like to point out that he said this at the beginning of the 7 hour moving odyssey…and while I was tapping my feet and looking at my watch the whole time and I even started loading boxes and furniture, this moving guy’s age comments worked.  Somehow, I was not at all annoyed that a 4 hour move turned into a 7 hour ordeal.  Flattery will get you everywhere!

P.P.P.P.S.  Thank you for all of your nice emails about my house…you are so sweet.  I will be more than fine.  As I said, this is merely an inconvenience…a hiccup in life…a very challenging hiccup…but a hiccup.  Seeing the news of all of the families mourning in Newtown has helped me keep great perspective over the last few days.  Again, my thoughts, condolences and deepest sympathies go out to them.

P.P.P.P.P.S.  Must go buy storage today for sis DS’s house…I brought so much stuff over…if I don’t organize it, I will wear out my welcome I’m sure!!!

P.P.P.P.P.P.S.  TE is leaving today for a week. He is going to Europe to see his family. In the middle of all my house craziness chaos, last night we managed to exchange Christmas presents.  He is so sweet.  He got me something for the vacation we’re taking next week. Was nice taking a breather from construction and moving to enjoy the holiday.  We’re going to Beaver Creek for New Years.  We’ll stay with best of friend FF and her family in their huge home and then we’ll go to a resort for 3 days.  Can’t wait.

P.P.P.P.P.P.P.S. UPDATE ON COCOCOZY LUCITE TRAYS – Not too late to order these trays before the holiday or as a Christmas gift, a present for yourself or housewarming gift. We have them back in stock and can overnight ship to you so they make it in time!

    Like? No love, love, love your fab chair! I see a furniture line in your near future. Hope you’ll be able to rent out more office space cause you’ll definitely need it when you start getting orders for chairs and stools and ottomans and headboards!!

    Yes me like, and love – but it surely has more to do with the whole fab set up of the a white desk, gorgoeus cushions on the shelf, it just all “works” doens’t it! I’m jealous too!

    Beautiful office! LOVE the desk. Similar to the Kindel one I’ve been eyeing. Who makes this one? Where might I find it?

    Hi Catherine,
    Lots of people have asked about the desk. It is for sale on the COCOCOZY Shop site. http://shop.cococozy.com/?p=product&sku=RAN017&d=1

    We can custom make it in with white lacquer finish for you. It takes about 12 weeks.

    Happy Holidays!

    Thank you, Coco! I really like the white but black might be a better choice in my space. Any chance you make it in a black lacquer finish?

    Happy Holidays to you 🙂

    Coco,

    I absolutely adore your office! Can i beg you to tell me where you found your desk? I’ve been looking for a design like it.

    The chair is so fun, I also love that you put a dark square shade on the eiffel lamp and one can never go wrong with a chandelier LOL.

    Looking forward to seeing more photos of your spaces!

    Cheers,
    Karen O.

Keep it simple. No need for bells and whistles an Keep it simple.  No need for bells and whistles and fancy things to make your house a home.  In this picture, a plant, two chairs I found at the flea market, a layered rug situation and some modern art...de-cluttered space can be equally as inviting as one filled with memories and treasures.  If you are stuck with how to decorate, I say keep it simple.  Purge and start with the basics.  Full disclosure, this is a shot of my living room from a few years ago when I first moved in...I didn’t even have drapes up when this was taken.  I have since added pieces and changed out furniture and added a 2nd sofa...but it started super simple and it was lovely back then.  When the world is swirling around us and making no sense, how are you keeping things simple at home?  #socococozy #bringstylehome #cococozy
Pre-pandemic throw back photo to where I was last Pre-pandemic throw back photo to where I was last year.  Clueless as to what was to come.  Was in Paris, with my mom, enjoying her summer apartment in the middle of the 6th arrondissement.  I had just left the U.K. visiting friends for a few days in London and the Cotswolds.  None of us knew that this summer 2020 would be so different.  Today, I can only hope this time of tumult and great divides leads somehow to a future of calm and harmony.  Going backwards in time is not an option.  Pushing forward is.  Happy Sunday to you.  Where were you last summer?  Where do you imagine you’ll be next? Xoxo #socococozy #bringstylehome
Incredible living room before and after as designe Incredible living room before and after as designed by my good friend Steve Jones @bettershelter!  I went on a tour today.  I also went on a tour a year ago when he first got the house.  See my stories. Swipe to see what this room looked like before.  Life lesson from a room transformation:  When faced with the daunting and not so pretty, look to do the work, and you can make changes to bring  out what is good.  Right?  This home by the way is going on the market soon and is in one of my favorite parts of town, View Park.  What changes have you made lately that have turned bad into good? #socococozy #bringstylehome #remodeling #homerenovation #californiadreaming
“Be patient with yourself it has been a funky fe “Be patient with yourself it has been a funky few months in the world.” My friend Manon texted this advice to me today.  She is right.  A little patience and a lot of kindness to yourself and to others during these unusual times will go a long way.
***
Am in my living room right now looking at these pretty flowers in that white urn I found lying around.  The urn works (see Flower Power highlights for backstory). Thinking on who I might send one of these bouquets to today as a little act of kindness.  Still working on the patience piece of her advice! 🤪 Who might you send flowers to?  How can you be more patient with yourself? Happy Saturday!

Hi! Finally something to smile about! 😂 Exciti Hi!  Finally something to smile about! 😂 Exciting flower news today as I debut the first ever COCOCOZY designed bouquet in my latest partnership! Tada.  Here is The Classic by COCOCOZY exclusively on @ftdflowers + @proflowers as part of their #herestoher initiative!  Swipe left to see it up close.  I wanted to design a super lush classically beautiful bouquet that would look good in any home during the fall/winter.  Roses, eucalyptus and so much more in soft whites and greens.  I am so happy with the final product.  What’s great is that this hand tied bouquet comes in a box straight to your door and you can put it in any vase.  If you swipe left you can see it in my breakfast room.  Perfect for sending as a birthday gift, celebration, expression of love or friendship, a business gift, a thank you to someone or I recommend ordering for yourself every couple of weeks to cheer up your space as we stay at home more!  I plan on getting them weekly!  Anyhoooo...I’m linking to the bouquet in my profile.  Have you ever ordered flowers for yourself just because?  Who might you send these to?  #socococozy #bringstylehome #cococozy
