WHITE ART DECO DESK - with vintage white hardware

I am not a real fan of art decor
style furniture. But I do have 
to admit it is all made with 
nice solid wood which is great
to work with. When I started 
working on this vanity/desk 
project I never dreamt it 
would turn out as good as
it did. Let me know your 
thoughts.

 

Labour day came and the sunshine came along with it.

In the nice weather I worked on this cute little art deco desk.

I sprayed it with a 50% - 50% ASCP mix of Old White & Pure White, and lightly edge distressed it before hand waxing. 

The knob on the middle drawer is new, it's a fun acrylic bead

 and rhinestone knob, but I don't think you can tell from the

 photos that it is quite large and really pretty. I filled 

the original holes on the six side drawers so I could pick whatever

size handles I wanted. The desk was all finished but the filler

 had to dry over night. I was so anxious to pick the handles I 

pulled a whole basket from my stash and spread it out on the

 bed. Of course when George comes to bed there has to be

 something said, "what is going on here" and he emphasizes it

 like Scott from The Canadian Pickers. Before you know it he 

is helping me chose handles for the desk.

The handles we chose were salvaged earlier this year from the

 dresser vrs. vehicle grudge match. See photo below ...
