I don't even need to re-paint it or anything! Black and white are my colors, and this desk is in PERFECT condition. So of course, I am already visioning what I can do with this to make it the perfect vanity/craft desk.
W and I took a trip to Lexington to visit the Habitat For Humanity Restore store, where I found this chair. It was only $15, and had clean lines. I definitely saw the possibilities with this chair.
First things first. Sand that sucker! It was stained once before so paint wasn't going to stick. Even after I sanded it, the paint still ran off. So I got a heavy duty primer, and as you can see below, primed it!
While I was waiting for that to dry, I re-covered the chair cusion. I already had this awesome fabric and never had any reason to use it. (Yes I buy things on impulse and save them for a project) Which was perfect because now I had a reason! Just a few staples in the back and the cushion is as good as new!
I gave the chair a few coats of black paint, and voila! A totally new look! It fits perfectly with the style of the desk!

Check back later to see how I added a mirror to create the vanity effect and how it fits into my room!
