One Room Down

Matt and I decided it was time to finish at least one room in this house and the lucky winner was the den. Matt inherited this desk and promised me that he would give it a makeover and I would not be disappointed. Not gonna lie, I was skeptical.

Before:
After:
By now I should really know how totally awesome the hubs is with tools and designing and what not. He sanded down the desk, fixed a few broken pieces and stained it black. It looks completely new!
We then made a much needed trip to Ikea and what do you know, one room finished....well kind of. We still need to do crown molding and get one or two more things but for the most part it's done!



Thanks to my mad skills I now present you with a panoramic view of our den :)

Love the room - you guys did a great job. Wish I could see that desk in person, I have a feeling the pic doesn't do it any justice at all.
