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 :)

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