From Sewing to a Beauty

My new favorite color, Nocturne Blue (Behr Marquee in matte finish from Home Depot HDC-CL-28).  I cannot take all the credit for discovering this awesome shade of blue, not quite a cobalt nor a turquoise.


I found a sewing desk posted on our local FB garage sale site.  I instantly knew that I could turn it into a lovely desk.  I started searching Pinterest for inspiration and came across this EXACT desk that had been refinished in this fabulous color.   And off I went to Home Depot!  The wood top is from Menard's and stained in an Early American then generously coated with paste wax for durability.   Unfortunately I did not take a before picture, oops.

This is a piece you build a room around!

I plan to paint the mirror in the dining room this color over the weekend.  Hubby and I updated the display wall in the dining room and the mirror will be the finishing touch!

Happy Thursday!
