While plotting out the guest bedroom / office makeover, I knew I would need a desk. However, I didn’t want to spend money on a new one – where’s the fun in that?? So, I took an old kitchen table and a discarded hutch and made my own desk. {link to my blog}

Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
This table actually has two leaves that go with it. They fold down, but when they are folded down, they block your knees and its uncomfortable. Therefore, I just unscrewed them from the table.
Step 2
Sit hutch on top of desk and secure to wall. Paint pieces as desired. I painted it all glossy black to match the moldings and other black accents in the guest bedroom. Then, I “dipped” the feet with gold spray paint. You can check out the details and where I got all the fun accessories over on my blog.
