Beautiful! As much as I like the white paint, for me, I would do a white wash just so you can still see the grain. Such detailing! I am now wanting a vintage desk! Older pieces have so muc more character than what is manufactured today, plus! more durable and longer lasting. The new room arrangement looks so much better as well. Doesn't look clutter, plus she is surrounded by her beautiful pictures. That child behind the desk is so precious! Just want to kiss that face and give a very long lasting hug! 🤗💝

Her desk turned out so pretty & uplifting! I could feel how much this meant to her and I think everyone deserves a lovely spot to work. My personal preference would have sanded the desk down & finished with a matte clear stain and/or bleached the wood if necessary. The wallpaper you picked was adorable, I loved it! I probably would have searched for agesss for just the perfect knobs and I’m glad that wasn’t my journey 😅

I was jumping with joy when you said the desk got shorter, since the “standard” desk size does not comfortably fit someone under 1,65/1,70m… I was screaming at the screen: Keep it like that, your friend looks on the petite size like me! We always have to lift the chairs to the point our feet don’t touch the ground to be at a “comfortable” shoulder level with the top of the desk. Oh well, not-tall-person problems 😂

I love the idea of natural light! What about using the plexiglass for a glass wall that can also double as a dry-erase space. You could then create a wood frame that can be changed out when you "grow out of" said window design. This could give you future opportunities for design changes. Another thought... how about a living plant wall?

Gorgeous, and great save with the legs! I’ve been painting my desk pedestals for my new office today. We took apart a $100 bankers style pedestal desk and will be adding a new 2.8 metre desktop (with proper supports) so I can have space for work and space for sewing and other hobbies. We have purchased a new business and our first day of trade is Nov 1st - I will be doing admin and bookkeeping for both of our businesses, as well as employing staff and managing a payroll for the first time. It’s a big move for us, but the business is well established and we are taking over from the current owners who are retiring. 🎉

I went all the way back to your first video and watched every single video oldest to newest and am now caught up! I now want to buy more tools and start making furniture and all the other things you have created! You are an amazing artist and very entertaining 😊I thought I might throw a suggestion out to you as I know you paint a lot of white furniture and especially this piece with the details. If you put black was on the details and wipe away it really makes the details pop! Just an idea❤ Thank you for expanding my creativity through your own amazing work 😊

1st look at the desk - it's an awesome desk, love the style, the size is perfect and enough drawers for storage. I like the wallpaper liner you choose, she can pick one of the colors to paint the room or just an accent wall. Personally, I would have kept the original hardware, maybe clean it up with some rub & buff. Too bad about the legs, the replacements look good though and the ones you took off, I'm sure will end up in a future project, yet to come.
