makeover monday

i found this vintage desk at my local thrift store for $14.99 and just loved it's charm!

here it is before...

my man did the painting for me...white on all the metal and light pink on all the wood.

it looks great in my little lady's room and will be perfect for doing homework at! yikes...did i just say that! i can't believe she starts kindergarten this fall!



the desk top surface was still in amazing condition and i didn't want to touch it! i love the robin's egg blue color it has!
