I finished sanding and priming my little desk this weekend. I'm waiting to pick out the colors I am going to paint it until I pick my area rug for my living room. I'm thinking of just a basic green base, cream over that and some aging glaze. I have little crystal knobs for the drawer, and I am going to paint my initials like a monogram on the middle of the drawer. I had before pictures of the day I brought the desk home, but I lost them in the bad hard drive incident (grrrrr). Here are some other "before" pictures.
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning. . .

I'm loving our little chats...off to get nails done..more commenting this evening.
ReplyDeleteoh p.s. take a peek at my Monday makeover on savvycityfarmer...is your desk done yet?
ReplyDeleteHow fun . . . love to get my nails done. Right now they are covered in primer. Ooops. I have not yet finished the desk because my little people keep me very busy, and I also get distracted very easily. I went out tonight and picked an area rug for my living room. I was very excited to find a huge hooked rug for a great price at HomeGoods. Yippeeee, I can't wait to put it in. Tomorrow I think I will ponder desk color some more. Have a great night . . .now I'm off to check out the Monday makeover.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh!
ReplyDeleteI love that desk!!!
It was so homely before, that I almost missed out on it. I passed it by for weeks and then driving in the car one day I realized I needed to get it. $10!!!!!!!!!
