Little girl's desk

 I finally finished the custom desk that I've been working on for the past week.  I really love the way it turned out.  It was my first time doing a custom piece for a client, and I loved working with her to get the results she wanted.  This desk was chosen for her two sweet little girls, and I worked with their bedroom decor to make it fit in perfectly.
Here is the before
                  She wanted it to be white, and distressed to match all the other pieces in the room.
                                                                               After
The walls in the room are a greenish/yellow color, so it's reflecting off the top and makes it look yellow, but it's white. I painted the pulls to match the walls and
                           lined the drawers with the same fabric from the girls bedding and curtains

Here they are checking out their new desk!  I think they like it :)

  9. Natalie,
    The client had the fabric left over and I used it in the drawers. I think she got it at Jo-Ann Fabirc store.
