Serpentine Secretary Desk

I found this great serpentine secretary desk that needed some TLC and it was a great price so it came home with me of course!

Great lines and details!

Here is the inside when the front folds down

I was able to take the inside shelving out before I painted.
I mixws up  a batch of home-made chalk paint in Mills Springs Blue by Benjamn Moore.  This is one of my go-do favorite colors.  I actually painted my daughter's furniture in her room this color.  (Aqua and red room)

I took out the shelving unit inside and painted it with Milky White home made chalk paint.

The Russian horse I picked up at the Flea Market at the same time.

The dresser has really neat claw foot legs but someone had screwed them on backwards--the front legs were in the back and the back legs were in the front so I switched them.

I love the curvy drawers!

This is probably the picture that shows the true color the best--aqua blue

I sold this piece in less then 24 four hours!  Yippiii!
