This secretary was in really rough shape; duct tape marks, scratches and discoloration were just a few of its challenges.
BEFORE:
The piece was in need of a whole new look. I decided to paint the main body white, use blue on the drawer fronts, and green as a pop on the organizer.
AFTER
It’s hard to believe that this is the same secretary.
This small table was created from four other pieces of furniture!
Picking up pieces of furniture left on the side of the road, tends to yield many useful parts. The found pieces are usually trashed or have been rained on. If the piece as a whole is in bad condition I always try to look at it as the sum of its parts. This particular table is made from two chairs (the legs), a coffee table (aprons), and a headboard (the top); all of which were unusable as they were.
All of these pieces assembled, with a little paint and polyurethane, made a uniquely adorable side table!
