My $5 Desk & Chair

The other day I decided I wanted to put  a desk in my daughters room. So what do I do? I hunt on KSL that night for a cheap old desk, that I can redo. It only took me only a couple of minutes to find this desk and chair, and the best part...both for $5.00! I love it! I really don't even have to paint the desk, but I might just add a few things to it. The chair I definitely will paint! Stay tuned for the transformation! And remember to follow my blog! Thanks

An Oldie But A Goodie





This is something that I made a few years ago, but I really like it so I thought I would share it with you.

The first thing you are going to need is a basic wood frame. Then you can paint it whatever color you choose. I chose black, then sanded the edges and applied a little stain over it to make it look aged.

The next thing you need to do is cut a piece of bead board to go inside of the frame. (Sorry,  I couldn't take a picture of just the bead board, it was glued together.) You then want to either glue it in or put some little nails in to hold it better.

You could do lots of different things with this, you could add just a little star, but I really like the berry wreath and the star together.

I attached the wreath and star with a little nail, because it didn't hold very well with the hot glue.

Hope you like it. Thanks for looking!
