Glam {10 dollar} desk

A few weeks ago someone told me about Antique Alley, 25 miles of yard sales and small flea markets. Ummm, yes please!  In a trailer full of junk a little desk lay dirty and alone, but all I saw were her pretty curved lines   I asked the guy how much, he said 10 bucks, I ran over and paid him before he changed him mind.  She was pretty nasty and need 3 baths in TSP and a good vacuum to get rid of spiders, eek!

She’s Candy Pink by Rustoleum and the knobs are from Hobby Lobby {they were white and I used metallic silver to glam them up}.  On the edges I used this…



Sorry for the bad pic, it was raining and dark so I had to use my flash.   The top one is pearly white, I used the silver first and put the white on top.  I also wanted to try to make a knock off Anthro mirror with this…



I followed directions from Mandi at Vintage Revivals and it was soooo easy!! { I’ll admit when using the acid I was SCARED, it was smoking from the bottle!} I had a hard time getting a good pic because of the sun coming in those windows next to it, but here it is.



I painted and glazed the frame and put hot pink zebra underneath. Love. Like a lot.  I’m totally doing another one of these stat!




Oh and can we pretend that frame has a pretty pic of Miss M and I in the bluebonnets??  I had one printed out yesterday and for the life of me can’t find it anywhere! I hate when I do that, I’m sure as soon as I print out another one it will turn up
