~~Desk Transformation~~
...And here's too many pictures to look at. I just love how this turned out!!!! The desk and chair got a sweet milky/stainey paint bath and now have a warm feel rather than that cold feel from bleach white. Seriously, I redid my old trunk, table and now desk/chair and I am done with all white and pink too! LOL My shabby chic days are kinda over and I'm moving over into a french/rustic/retro/hip/chic kinda feel? Hard to say which design class this falls into. But I love it! This bulletin board is AWESOME! I love sitting down and looking up at things that inspire me. Plus it helps to get some work done knowing what direction I'm going in. :) I was trying to come up with some fun bulletin board tack ideas. I will be making some with buttons for sure. But I remembered I had all these old vintage floral brooches sitting in a box. So I brought those out and am using them for the tacks. Along with some sewing pins too. Just too much fun! So here's some pics to share. Have a fabulous day!:)
Pretty as can be.
