Goodwill Desk Finished!

Remember my Goodwill secretary desk I picked up for a measly $25!
So here is the icky before!


And here is the fun after!  I mod podged some girly fabric on the top and painted the inside a funky hot pink in addition to adding some inexpensive Target drawer pulls!


Hope you all like it.  I'm not in love with it but I guess you can't love every project you complete.  I think it's cute for Emerson and I hope she will love it when she is old enough to start little crafty art projects.

Happy to be linking up here:

    It looks great! And the poster who mentioned that once it is in place it will grow on you - I think they are right. I see what you are saying though, there is something missing (and maybe that just a matter of moving it into it's own room) but maybe there needs to be white on the pink part, or pink on the white part (spray the hardware?).
