Pretty Desk Makeover

 
Good Morning Everyone!
 
I'm not sure if you remember or not but way back sometime last year I moved my daughters desk out into our living room since I loved it so much and thought it would work well in the space.
 
After finally talking her into painting it, the desk looks oh so pretty in a fresh coat of creamy white paint called Cottage White.
 


This is what it looked like when I first moved it into the living room.  No doubt it was pretty . . .
 


But now I think it's GORGEOUS!
 

The curved drawer fronts and cute little legs speak to me.  I slightly distressed a little here and there after painting and kept the original hardware just like it was previously.  I love the contrast between the white and the aged metal.
 

 
I'm loving how it turned out and how well it seems to go with my farm sign.


I decided to keep the same display you may remember seeing before with the addition of a simple lace edged table runner.  I'm still enjoying the simple arrangement and I'm hoping to use it a couple more weeks before I changed things up for fall.  I have a feeling it won't changed to much.  LOL!

 
Have a great day and I'll talk to you soon,
 
Robin
