SOLD - French Style Writing Desk

Everybody loves a before and after... here's another one. :)

 Last week I picked up this writing desk from a great little consignment shop called Panache. They just moved to Burnside Road in Saanich.  Check them out if you get a chance.

 I gave it a good cleaning and had to sand out a couple of raised spots on the top.  

 The top and the body was painted with a mix of Graphite and Old Ochre.

 The second coat is Old Ochre.  Love this colour!

 First a little wet distress, clear wax, lots of dark wax and a little more distressing. 

 The finished piece in the showroom.  

Love the pop of Scandinavian Pink inside the drawers.

Drop by 1850 Oak Bay Ave and see it in person!
