Thrift stores are my favorite… I get such a rush walking through them because you never know what you will find! Today’s project is no different. When I stumbled upon this at the thrift store, they had it labeled as a jewelry box. I guess is was possible, but I saw it as a desk organizer.
Here’s what it looked like when I brought it home:
Look how awesome it is inside:
How could I pass that up? I knew that a coat of spray paint and a freshly painted inside would transform this piece from drab to fab.
Let me just tell you… I LOVE IT thiiiiiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssssssssssssss muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. How’s that for an explanation?
It’s the perfect addition to my desk and it makes finding my favorite pens easy peasy. I also like that I can hide stuff in there… that way sticky hands don’t run off with my favorites… I’m a little weird when it comes to pens, especially my favs. I know I can’t be the only one…
It’s the perfect addition to my desk. I love the versatility- it can do so many things!
I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again, thrift store finds can be the best!
Big smiles!
