I found a great desk/table at the local Flea Market this weekend and brought it home. It needed some work, but it had potential!
Before:
I mixed up my own custom color chalk paint and started to paint away. It was a rainy day so I had to get my blow dryer out to dry the paint between applications (patience is not my strong suit when it comes to waiting). The next step was distressing and then waxing. I also found new hardware from my stash and called it a day.

Love this rusty old drawer pull!    |
