I've been on a painting kick since last weekend. I refinished a desk about a year ago and then two pieces this past weekend, so since they all turned out so well I am thinking what do I want to paint next? I have one of my grandparent's secretary desks that I just adore but thinking do I want to paint it or leave it as is for our new house? (We don't have it in our current house, just in storage)
I do love the look of wood, but thinking it's scratched up a bit and you know I do love a splash of color! There are so many cool ways to use a secretary desk these days.
Here's a pic of how they used one as a mini bar!
Classic desk. I love love love this light grey/blue with gold detailing. My first pick!
How about a punch of PINK? You know this is so me, but could I talk Chad into it?
Fresh, creamy white would be gorgeous in a future living room or bedroom.
but again I do love a light blue or light grey...
How about a mix of wood and paint color?
Another white with blue inside. Love.
and the way they've converted this one into a china display and the gold detail seriously makes me want to put it in a future dining room.
Aaaaaah, see. How do you ever decide now thanks to Pinterest???
What's your favorite?
Love these! My dad built us a china cabinet that is really similar to this with the secretary desk bottom. It's stained glossy ebony. I love the punch of pink! I'd have a hard time convincing my husband of that one, too, though. Haha.
ReplyDeleteI love the one that is painted with the wood still inside. It's updated but, still shows its old charm. However, I love the ones with the gold accents! Beautiful! Maybe you could figure out a way to incorporate them all? :)
