  • my old deck 1
  • same deck...but my redo -paint & freecycle does wonders 7

Before and after. I painted the deck after scrubbing the house with clorox. Made my canopy from canvas.

I painted the deck after scrubbing the house with clorox. I got a gazebo frame and patio furniture off freecycle. I made a canopy from unbleached canvas and tied left over quilting strips ...»
on for decoration. Total cost...just the clorox...(4 gallons). I did it all in 2 days :) It was a combination birthday/mother's day gift to myself. I'm thrilled with it. I am still finding little things to hang up in the gazebo for interest...but I love it <3 What do you think???

  • This picture shows the before, during and after. 13
  • My daughter used this desk as a teen, but it had been stored in the basement for years until I dissected it.
  • I built up the top, and added some crown molding.
  • Stacked one side onto the other side to make it tall, then added a new MDF bottom and feet.
  • After spraying it with primer and black paint, I felt it needed a little something special, so I stenciled a flowering vine all the way up the front of the drawers. 3
  • I added some glass knobs to finish it off. Because this piece has two deep drawers that were formally file drawers, and 4 smaller drawers, it is very versatile.
I currently have it in the bedroom, storing boots, and business stuff.  LOVE how versatile it is, and it's much smaller footprint.  Same storage, less floor space.  Win/win!
you can see the full tutorial on my blog. http://bit.ly/JFKWMa 5

Repurposed Desk into Chest

I took apart an old 90's desk, stacked the two pieces into a tall multipurpose chest.
