With a little bit of elbow grease something new is reborn, but what this gal does surprised me!
She and her Mother went thrifting and she ran across something she immediately got a vision for.
This is a brilliant idea for a desk!

Then she primed and spray painted the legs gold.
She bought a top for it at Ikea and voila!
She had an awesome new desk with a great modern appeal.
Apparently trestle legs are what these are called.
Thats what so great about watching these DIY project videos.
I usually learn something very valuable that I wouldnt have known if I hadnt seen them.
I really needed a desk and I didnt want to spend an arm and a leg on one.
Now, I am not a finish carpenter Im not even a rough carpenter.
Watch how Mary Elizabeth cleverly revamps this desk in her step by step tutorial!
