Hello everyone, how was your weekend? I spent most of mine working in the garage trying to make a dent in my ever growing pile of trash soon to be treasures. I did finish one project that had been driving me crazy thinking what to do with it. It wasn’t until I found Lisa at CreateInspire giving me the inspiration that I needed to make-over this desk. 
Her blog is full of inspiration with the most gorgeous make-overs! If you have never visited her blog, you should! You will be in for a real treat and will leave feeling so inspired just like I do.
Now when I’m in my garage, I stand there and look at my pile of trash soon to be treasures and ask myself “what would Lisa do”!
One more project down and I’ve lost count on how many more are left because I keep adding to my pile of trash. I picked up a few more furniture pieces this weekend which I will share in another post.
Now, go check out Lisa’s blog….you will not be disappointed!
As always thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful week.
Gail

It's gorgeous, Gail! I love it! I'd love to find a desk about this size to do. I keep finding big ones though! I have to stick with my "it has to fit in the back of my Sorento and I have to be able to lift it myself" rule or I might have gone for one. I found Lisa's blog last week when she shared that fabulous turquoise French desk she did. She does do some wonderful makeovers.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful piece Gail!I will hop on over and check out Lisa's blog! Thank you for sharing!

WOW! Oh my, that is one GORGEOUS desk and the chair is very sweet along with the typewriter sitting on the table. I love your painting job on the top, perfection! I LOVE it. You can be certain that it will sell quickly.

Not the least bit surprised that you were inspired by Lisa. She is so talented! ... And just look at that desk - amazing details! I love the drawers and the way you framed out the chalkboard top! Thanks so much for sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are channeling the right creative mind, because the desk turned out fantastic. SO I'm gonna pin it.

The top of your desk is a work of art! I've got to check out your inspiration now.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your desk! It's really beautiful! I'm especially in love with the drawer fronts but the grey grain sack detail on the chair is also gorgeous. I just pinned and will be your newest follower. :)
