Desk Delight….

SOLD!!!!

THIS DESK NOW BELONGS TO OUR NEIGHBORS.  THEY BOUGHT IT BEFORE IT WAS STARTED AND WERE ABLE TO CHOOSE THE COLORS. 

I did not get a before picture of this desk, but it was a dark brown.  The desk had great character and some rather unique hardware that attracted Dick to it.  He fell in LOVE with it and had a vision in mind before we left DI’s.DSCN4287

We have new neighbors and they found out we restored furniture and wanted something for the bedroom or bathroom for her to use as a makeup vanity.  When she seen the ugly brown color, she too had a vision and wanted the desk to serve as her vanity.

The desk was painted sand and lightly distressed then glazed with a chocolate brown.  The hardware was spray painted oil rubbed bronze.

I am so taken with this side of the desk and the marble look that the glaze made.  I found that it is all in how it is rubbed off.  I am getting more relaxed with the glazing part.
