Karin from Art Is Beauty calls this piece her Humpty Dumpty desk because it was in pieces when she found it on the curb. Karin and her hubs had to dig around in the dark for all the parts. Now that is some serious commitment to the cause!
Unlike our poor friend Humpty Dumpty, Karin was able to put the desk back together again. She then sanded it down and painted it a beautiful blue from a can of Oops paint. All this desk cost Karin in the end was “2 bucks and lots of sweat!”

Ohhhh I LOVE this!!!! You could see that it had potential but who knew how beautiful it would actually be!
Karin has a magic touch for sure. This desk was literally in pieces when she found it, and look at it now! She amazes me with her work.
That is just gorgeous! That paint looks like blue velvet. Amazing what paint and a lot of sweat can do
Call me cheap, but I’d much rather pay with sweat than cash!
Thanks for taking the time to comment!
