DESK TRANSFORMATION (PART ONE)

 

 I've undertaken the project of refinishing my desk, turning it from a stained piece to a painted antiqued finish.

This is the only "before" pic I could find tonight.  It is in the middle of this photo.

 

Here is a picture of the desk, after sanding all the finish off and adding some wood appliques to feminize my desk a bit before painting.

 



 

 

 

 This is the desk after I finished priming it today.

 

 

I'll be painting it next weekend and finishing the antiquing process.  I'm going to use a creamy white with a dark brown paint/glazing application on top.

This has been more work than I anticipated, but I know it will be worth it when it complete!
