Desk Rehab
Another garage sale find... this one was $20.
My 10 year old has been begging for a desk and I thought we could make this one work just perfectly!
She wanted to paint the desk so I let her do the entire first coat of paint and she did an amazing job!
We picked out some hardware at Hobby Lobby to add a little bit of her personality.
And I couldn't resist giving you the reality picture of what the desk looked like a couple of days after I took the pictures for the post! She's definitely made it her own!
FYI: I used ASCP Pure White paint on this desk.
VERY cute, Nicole!! You are the queen of painting furniture! I have a bunch of pieces sitting around waiting to be painted, but can't seem to find the motivation to do it! How awesome that you let her paint some too. I never seem to have the patience to attempt that with K. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute desk...and all the more special because your daughter helped to redo it! A couple of years ago my then 10 year-old son painted (with my assistance) a bed and desk for his room. It may not have been perfect, but it was something that he was really proud of. :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is great!! I'd love to have you link this up "Tasty Thursdays" on The Mandatory Mooch. It's a new linky party starting today. Hope to see you there. Thanks, Nichi

Awe, that is great! I like the reality pic. So fun that she got to be a part of painting her own desk! Thank you for linking this up to Rustic Restorations Weekend!
