$30 Table Reveal

About 2 weeks ago I showed you guys a table that I got at a local flea market. She is finally finished and has made her new home in my office as my new desk. Since I work from home I needed a new larger work space and this beauty is perfect!
Here is what she looked like before....
And here she is now..............
I love the handles on the drawers.
And I am really happy with the stencil on top. It added a little extra something.
She really is wonderful and I can't believe she was only $30.

So weird! I JUST bought a VERY similar desk for our guest room AND yesterday the same kind of chair! Paid 30.00 for the desk and 30.00 for the chair. I love what you did with yours! The stenciling is the perfect touch!
