My friend Shayne brought me this piece. A semi-circle desk with a leather inlay that had been painted black. This picture was taken during the first coat of primer.
She wanted it beautified to use as a vanity for customers to sit at while they try on pieces of her jewelry. She makes EXQUISITE jewelry...and you can see it here on her Facebook page.
I creamified it...and I'm in love!
Hope you love it too!

Completely different..I like it very much..great job..Happy Thursday
Great shape, and you made it beautiful.
Perfect piece, gorgeous! Did you happen to use chalk paint on this, the sheen looks more matte? Love it!
I want it!!!! I'm glad you posted this because I have two end tables that have the leather inlay and I was trying to figure out if I could paint it and if I did how it would look. Whew, glad it will look great! That leather is so old school;)
Fantastic shape! Absolutely beautiful and well done. Found you via my Romantic Home. Pop on over for a visit when you get a moment. Tootles, Kathryn
