Desk

This piece was a sad state of affairs when I purchased it. Legs missing no handles – but look at it now. I love the transformation and my favourite would have to be the filing cabinet handles.

I was sure that I took a before shot but I cannot find it anywhere. So your just going to have to believe me here. It was a very dark timber which I like as these pieces always tend to look great when sanded around the edges.
Have a great week.

    I agree too, Sandy, love the handles and yes dark varnished pieces are my favourite as I love that contrast between the white paint and the dark distressed parts.

    Hi Sandy. It's gorgeous. I hate it when you can't find the before pic – happens to me all the time – though I can imagine how different it must look now! Can I ask where you found those awesome handles? I've been having trouble locating ones like that.
    Thanks.

    Hi Sandy, great make over as always. I love the hardware you have applied to the desk and that chair goes with it beautifully and the pink letter holder and the roses (from your garden?). Is this a keeper? Have a great week. 🙂
