Gray Blue Writing Desk

I picked up this gorgeous desk last summer with the intention on using it in the spare bedroom as a craft table.  It just wan't large enough for a work space so I had to let it go.

It's a solid piece in great condition other than some chipped veneer on top.  I glued down the veneer around the edges where it was lifting a little. I used wood filler and filled the spots where the veneer had chipped off.

Once the prep work was done I sanded the entire piece, primed with oil base kilz, and sprayed it a pretty light gray blue.

I lightly sanded the edges to make the details pop.  I love how you can see the dark wood and white underneath.

This was a piece that was hard to let go of but I just don't have the space.  Needless to say it sold right away.

I'm linking to Primp Your Stuff Wednesday, Transformation Thursday, and Frugal Friday.

Thank you Michelle for featuring my desk on your blog PRIMP.
