Thanks to Glidden's FREE paint...this whole project was freeeeee! When I first ordered my free paint, I thought the color was fantastic. It's called Icy Waterfall. But when I went to Home Depot to get the sample, because we all know the color on the computer screen is waaaay off, I was second guessing myself. Well, fast forward to actually getting around to painting the piece....I double love it! It's the slightest greyish, baby blue. At first it looks white, then out pops a greyish blue. Roughed it up some...viola! Desk painted.
Oh wait, I didn't paint the back panel underneath the desk. Redo! How ya like that freeeee chair?!?! One of my girlfriends gave it to me...giddy am I! Recovered the seat cushion and done. Well, for now. I think I'm going to paint it an ever so slight orange. What, orange you ask. Yes orange....totally roughed up of course. We'll see what the spray paint selection is. Heaven knows I hate to sit there with a paint brush these days when I've experienced the ease of spray paint. Oh how I love that stuff! I promise I will stay away from the neon orange though. I think I'm going to remove the bulletin board, that started off as a piece of artwork, and put some small shelves up for his crayons, pencils, and knick knacks. I'm also going to put a piece of glass on the top since it is
Since I had lots of freeeee paint left I had to find other things to paint.
Hopefully my mail will stay off the counters now.
