From drab to fabulous!  

Some furniture flips just aren’t dramatic. They are boring, but in the end they are just what you want. I found this campaign desk locally and it was the perfect size for a little alcove in my son’s room. The finish was pretty beat up, so I stripped the entire piece, sanded through the grits and restained it. I love it! The color is warm and rich and it contrasts nicely with the brass hardware.
