I have an antique wood student desk that my dad refinished and gave to me for my kids. It sits in my backroom library. Over the cold months when I bring in my tropicals, I put one pot on the seat and one on the desktop arm, it sits by my south windows so they get the sun they need. I don't put anything too heavy on the desk top since there isn't very much support for it. When my dad refinished it he put numerous coats of poly on it so it is safe in case water gets dribbled on it. That is what I use my desk for, other than grandkids using it to read or do homework, draw, etc.

Hi Sharon - I transformed this old vintage school desk. It may not be exactly what you are looking for, but may help with some inspiration. Hugs, Holly
