Jen bought this desk at a yard-sale from a girl down the street that had used it forever and was ready to let it go. Shhh, you guys. Don’t tell her how awesome Jen made it look. She’d never stop kicking herself. I know I wouldn’t.
Jen wanted to try the two-tone look, but she’s an overachiever and went with a five-tone ombre stain look instead! I love it, but I think I love the little metal edge details she uncovered the very most of all.

Aren’t they great!? And they were there all along!
That desk is really improved. I would have removed those corner pieces. Even though they were there before, they don’t really go with the final result. Nice save of a piece of furniture that most people wouldn’t have looked twice at.
Hi Bee! Don’t worry, I didn’t delete your comment, I deleted the post on accident. It should be back later today!
Thanks for the feature Lindsey! Such an honor to be on your blog!!!!
That is a desk to be proud of and the corner pieces are the finishing touch! I really like it. I also like the arrow over the desk. Lindsey, remember when you showed us how you made one for your son? I think Jen took your idea and ran with it. Time to up the ante on her, Lindsey. 😉
