I picked up this work bench (not sure if that's the correct name but I'm going with it!) a few weeks ago at Love of Jesus Thrift. It was pretty nasty but I had a vision of what it could be.
I took it home, gave it a good cleaning and sanded the heck out of it. I applied MANY coats of minwax stain in ebony.
And sprayed the legs with a coat of zinsser spray primer (OIL based) and finished it up with Rustoleum 2X cover spray paint in Satin finish, color: Lagoon
Before:
...And here is the new and improved work bench turned rustically chic desk.
The lamp is from Hobby Lobby and it's a match made in heaven with the legs on this "desk."
** Will be selling it at Class and Trash if any locals are interested ($45)...going to try and drop it off tomorrow (Monday)
Hope everyone had a lovely weekend!
Linking up with these lovely ladies!

Um wow. Love it. Nice work Erin!
ReplyDeleteWow - I love it! I definitely wouldn't have thought that would turn out looking so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGreat transformation!! Gosh, my husband had a table like this a few years ago and we left it on the side of the road. I never would have gotten rid of it if I'd known it had so much potential! LOVE the bright color on the legs!
