I found this solid oak desk in the parking lot at my local ReStore (Habitat for Humanity's building supply). It needed some help, but it was the perfect size for my new office so I took it home. Did I mention it was FREE?! Check out the transformation here and see more photos at www.mycrappyhouse.com
This sad (massive!) desk was in need of a makeover
There was damage in a lot of spots that needed repair
I stripped it down and removed the damaged areas
I added trim to change the style from mission to Victorian inspired
Two coats of black latex and two more coats of glossy poly later...
It's the perfect desk for my home office. See more at www.mycrappyhouse.com
