This was a simple French style antique desk, with beautiful curves and was in really great shape.
Great buy too real cheap from the Restore...Habitat for Humanity store down the street. I am in there everyday. They pretty much know me now a days lol.
She wanted them to match, but it was for her boyfriend and a surprise so we had to make it a bit more masculine. So we went for red and black, clean and glossy with the same handles but in black and a big red old fashion crown in the middle....a stencil I made with my new stencil machine :)
We added a little decorative red lining in the creases down the sides of the legs for a little flare!
The crown really made it, but I wish I could have added some flare, but my husband said that it would have made it too girly....so there we go, vintage made a modern masculine masterpiece ;)
