Bummer desk turned bright white beauty

There she is. Gorgeous at $19.99.

Here she was a few days ago when I went a little crazy with the sander (see how I took ownership of the mishap there? I'm growing.):

Thanks everyone for the suggestions, by the way. If it hadn't been for my impatience I would have used some of them!

And now. Here she is. All gorgeous and white. Umm....llllooovvvveeee.....

Seriously. Look at those pulls! I didn't touch them. They are original. I love the pull out writing drawers!

Just so you don't think I'm afraid of color:

The inside of all the drawers are slate blue!

And, just so you know that I left a little bit more of the original character:

Yep. My original idea was to sand and stain the top and the writing drawers. Since the top flopped, I decided to still keep the drawers. I love them! I'm so glad I left them instead of painting them white. Now I still have that little bit of stained top that I was looking for!

Oh dreamy antique desk. I adore you.

Oh. Primer - Kilz. Paint - Rustoleum Semi-gloss white. Sanding - 220 grit over the edges. Done and done.
