Salvation Army made me a happy woman again! One evening after grabbing Jai from school, I decided I wanted to stop at the Salvation Army - I hadn't been in a few weeks and wondered if they would have anything to tickle my fancy. They never disappoint me...
I thought about this desk and went inside to see if there could be anything else I saw that could win me over before the desk. I thought about if I even needed another desk since I still haven't gotten around to painting my Sweet Secretary Desk that I blogged about. I am a little apprehensive about painting the desk. I am trying to talk myself into it.
I paid a mere 30.00 for this desk - check out those pulls! I won't be swapping those out for anything new - I am going to spray paint (eek!) them gold.
After considering a few colors ~ Navy Blue, Plum, Burnt Orange, Evergreen... I decided, I am going to do something I would never do... BLACK! I am going to make a pitch to the family on the location of the desk because I have such great plans for it. Stay tuned for the after, its coming really soon.
Black furniture is truly going somewhere I have never gone before and I couldn't be more excited!

great find Summer! I went to the SA yesterday hoping to find a great deal. Unfortunately, they were closed! Can't wait to see it painted black!!
It definitely has great bones and for 30 bucks you can't beat that. Cant wait to see your transformation!
Its a great find, I LOVE the hardware gold will be perfect with black. The style of the desk is going to look so good in black, can't wait to see the after.
Looking forward to seeing the after.
PS: I love the style of the desk.
