Desk update!

I finallyyyy painted my desk!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!  i still need to paint the hardware but i'm debating what color.  i'm thinking coral or sunset red/orange color!  here are the updates!

Before


after

it's actually two-toned.  a turquoise and a lighter blue for some dry brushing to give an antique look!








what color should i paint the knobs and pulls?!?!?  I'm also going to outline with some color (like the purple in the original)  :)

  1. It's about time you painted the desk! I been waiting to see it. Wonderfullllllllllll! If you haven't already painted the knobs paint them bronze or old gold. If you like blue, come on over to my house! When you are there take a look at the warm againest the cool. you'll understand when you get there.Good luck on the blog, remember we all started with one follower.

  2. gasp! it looks fabulous! i love seeing furniture make-overs!!! great job! personally, i think red knobs would really give it a punch...but i also agree with the comment above and think gold would look nice. either way, i can't wait to see the final result :)
