This very giant, very ugly desk was left behind at the apartment I rent. I fell in love with it immediately and knew it just needed a little love...
Before
...and After
(Although this picture really isn't flattering...it's darker and less orange in person, stacked with books, and surrounded by a couple hundred white twinkle lights...)
It's an old desk and I was having so much trouble finding pretty new drawer pulls that fit, so I went with velvet ribbon instead... Now I don't have to feel guilty (or go broke) if I change my mind and decide to switch it up again later on...
When I sit down at my writing desk, time seems to vanish. I think it's a wonderful way to spend one's life. ~Erica Jong
