Furniture flipping is no easy task. Before even starting a piece, you have to envision the final product and know exactly what needs to be done to get there.

I had this cute vintage roll-top desk that wasn’t completely abused like most of my pieces, but, it still needed some beautifying.

At first, I was a little stumped when trying to figure out what to do with this piece. After some time I decided to give it a new fresh look and feel.

I knew that I want most of this piece white, however, I was in love with this wood. I came to a conclusion that I was going to paint most of it white but stain the top of the desk with a dark walnut color.

I began painting the entire desk and also painted the chair that goes with it white as well.

After it was dry, it was time to stain.
I also swapped out that old hardware with really simple plain ones instead.

It is starting to come along! At this point, I just waited for my chair to dry up so that I can stain the seat with that same dark walnut.

Check out the completed look!

I was so grateful to get this piece sold in less than 24 hours! My wonderful buyer said he was giving it to hi6-year-old daughter “so that she can do her homework on.” I hope she gets a lot done!
