Upcycled desk

I bought this lovely old desk from a lady in North London on Monday and did some upcycling in the sunshine on Tuesday (what a fab week to be on leave) - Farrow and Ball French Grey, a wonderful soft grey.


Then a coat of wax...


...and in the shop Wednesday.


Job done!

  1. That looks fantastic - and French Grey is one of my favourite Farrow & Ball colours - we painted the walls in my sitting room in my last house with it. A brilliant job - well done, (and yes, what a GLORIOUS week to have had off!) x

    1. I really enjoy doing it - it's creative and therapeutic - but from a business perspective its a lot of labour for small profit margin!
