This week Dan and I focused on the upstairs studio space. Working together we created a desk that is just perfect for making shiny things! It’s been so nice working in a clean and organized space. I’ve really enjoyed being creative and making shiny things, just for fun.
The nerd in me so enjoyed organizing. Getting rid of little things I’ve had forever. Clutter free, and everything has a home.
We found a small old dresser at a thrift store in Michigan last time we were there. We used that for one side of the desk. For the other side, we used some old metal legs we found. They are the the perfect color of rust. A green patina look, that comes with age. Stripping the dresser down from it’s original white color turned out to be a lot harder than we imaged. It was a great learning process though. The light color wood that turned up after the paint was stripped away was covered up with a darker stain. Dan worked really hard on making it perfect. I love the way it turned out.
