great garage sale desk

http://adventuresofthemichelenafamily.blogspot.com/Don't ya just LOVE a garage sale steal?!  I know I do!  This desk was being overlooked by everyone at this really big & crowded sale - I put in my (below the sticker) offer and WHOOP WHOOP! this baby came home with me!! I contemplated color, but kept going back to my never fail white, of course with some 'shabbying'... 

Would you have done another color?
I'm curious - what color, and why!

                BEFORE



AFTER


                       I switched out the pulls, too

I was pleased with the way it turned out!




go check out all the other projects on all these awesome blogs - trust me, you'll be glad you did!  there's some fantabulous talent out there!! and there's no way you'll come away un-inspired.  no way!

Ya know, you could also check out some more of my posts - I mean, well, you are already here! ;) heehee

OH, ummmm, and please leave me a comment! I appreciate it and love that you took the time!

ok, that's all, for now...

Something like this would be perfect for me.
My current desk looks like a dorm room desk, and something like this would improve things so much.

Good job on the re-do!
