Antique Desk gets a New Look

Hey everyone! I am so excited to show my latest project! This antique desk was made in approximately the 1930s. It had a fair bit of damage to it so after doing some research to make sure I wasn't about to strip down a priceless heirloom, I went ahead and decided to give it an entirely new look.

 It took a lot of debating, but I finally decided to stain the stop dark and paint the bottom grey and white. The handles were so unique, I wanted them to stand out a little more by using a contrast of the two colours. 

 After polyurethaning the top and varnishing the bottom, this desk is ready to go to a new home. :)
