This desk was near and dear to our hearts. We featured it on our Fresh off the Wagon page a few weeks ago. Its first incarnation was in the 1800's as a spinet piano. Heather found it and loved its bones, but it was no longer functional as a piano. That's when her handy husband reincarnated it, as a beautiful desk! See how the desk looks in Erin's home in Washington, DC. If you have pictures of how you've decorated with something found at the shop, please let us know!

what a lovely reincarnation ! years ago, my mother in law had an old old black piano that was very ornate such as this....she kept it for a long time and then i think she trashed it....of course, it was long ago, but look what it could have become with a handyman and some paint......sigh......
