Some Ideas For Wood working: THE MOST GEORGEOUS DESK

Sunday, February 23, 2014

If you follow on Facebook you know George has been bragging about a new desk

I have been working on. Well its finished and in place in the kitchen.

First thing I feel in love with when I saw this desk was the legs, big surprise huh?

I found it while we were out yard sailing this past weekend.

Then I realized this indented curve in the center would lends its self perfectly to my small space.

That was the moment when the light bulb went on!!!

And when I discussed with George swapping out his desk it was a no brainer.

the words he used when talking about his current desk was "its fine"

the words he used when I asked about the new desk was "its pretty cool"

When George is sit here and I have to walk past him it is tight,

with this newer desk there is a bit more room.

It may only be inches but around here every inch counts.

I had planned to strip and stain the top until I found this under the old finish.

So I have simply stripped and waxed instead.

SEE I REALLY DO LOVE WOOD!!!

One handle was missing but I had a similar looking pair so I installed them on the middle drawer.

The desk top even got an accessories update.
