Spring Green Secretary Desk

I bought this simple and plain desk at the Flea Market and thought it would look great painted a cheerful color.

 Before:

  I mixed up some home-made chalk paint and painted the desk first in grey, but it looked boring so I got out some blues and greens and mixed away until I got a bright Springy green.  After painting the desk in this color it was too bright so I waxed the entire desk with AS dark wax and finally got the look I was going for.

I love my Ironstone Pot with Flowers!

Now I like it!
