I'm a little slower than normal this month as I took on a few outside jobs and they are taking more time - day and night- than I had anticipated..
I bought this secretary off craigslist way over a year ago- showed it to ya'll then- and just never got around to doing anything with it.. The oak went well with my guest room bed , so thats where its been sitting waiting for the "oh so lovely" redo I promised it when it first arrived.. Thats the good thing about inanimate objects- they have Paitience and are willing to wait without complaining..
Should I paint the bed too??? I heard that gasp- yes I did.. lol well if I do- that'll have to wait and be my April project..
Here is a photo of her in her present state. As you see I made some notes of what I am considering right beside her picture.. NOW, if any of ya have any scathingly brilliant ideas about how I should refinish her- please let me know in your comment.
I plan to go looking for samples of secretaries that have been painted later this evening. Surely they have some on Houzz or Pinterest for me to look at.
I can make my own caulk type paint so no problem there.. I like the look of distressed as long as its done with a Light Touch:) I see so much that goes from distressed to destroyed in a Nano second and thats definatly NOT the look I'm going for..
I just wanted to let ya'll know what I was up to as well as get any advice you'd be willing to share .
Thanks for stopping by.. You are always welcome here and much appreciated.
xoxo
Sonny
