Secretary Reveal
It’s a happy day around here! Our secretary is finally finished and we love it!
I’m still amazed at the power of paint and how quickly it can transform! Seriously.
Here was the before:
And the after:
I’m in love with this piece of furniture! It was practically meant for this corner and now it owns it! We couldn’t be happier with the way that it turned out.
Because I wanted the smoothest finish possible, we sprayed painted the entire thing except for the back at the top. I hand painted that with Chelsea Gray. Looove it!
Everything pops against the dark color, which was exactly what I was going for.
After finally talking my husband into painting his family heirloom, I think we can both agree that the finished outcome is lovely. It went from a piece of furniture that received little to no use or attention, to a desk that is already getting used and admired! What could be better than that?
Here’s a side by side for comparison:
Yowza! Me likey the After! 🙂
Stay tuned tomorrow to see the rest of the entryway and a whole bunch of changes!
Big smiles!
