Desk Before and After

June 1, 2010

I swear I thought I posted pictures of Katelyn’s new desk, but I guess I was wrong. I found this desk at the Salvation Army and got them to give me a discount on it. The following day I went in search of a cute chair to go with it. I peeked into the back room at Goodwill and saw this cutie sitting there waiting for me. I convinced a worker that I really needed it and they drug it out for me and priced it at $4. Score!

Desk before:

Chair before:

Katelyn wanted the desk red, but we compromised with painting the chair red instead. I just love how it turned out.

After:

Now I just need to get the rest of her room finished. I have plans for the little table next to her bed, different window treatments and I need to finish painting the details on the walls. She’s been patiently waiting for an owl in that tree.
