Vintage Find to Girly Beauty

Hi loves and happy Thursday!

I am interrupting the scheduled summer recaps to share something with you all that's very near and dear to my heart. A few weeks ago, I started looking for a desk to use in my wedding planning office. I wanted something that I could fix up and redecorate to make my own. I love creating something fantastic out of something forgotten or misused. Can you tell I've been watching too much HGTV? Well, moving on. Then hubs surprised me by bringing this 1930s Craig's List find that had seen better days (many of them, in fact) home.

I know this isn't exactly the cute desk that I had pictured in my head, but that doesn't mean that it didn't have any potential. I knew that a beautiful piece of furniture was hiding beneath all of those scratches and funky looking stain.

So, with the help of this nifty little sander and a little lot of elbow grease from hubs, things slowly started turning from drab to fab.

And viola! Say hello to my new wedding planning desk & office :)

And my $15 pink chair from IKEA!

Final touches of pink flower knobs completed the project :)

Isn't she pretty! I am now obsessed with my "new" desk!

P.S. GO BUCKEYES!!
