Now, I realize that this desk was in great condition. I did hesitate on if I should paint it or not, but ultimately, I decided it needed a little update. Just a little blue paint is all! Normally, I shy away from bolder colors, but I've done a lot of white and gray pieces recently, so I needed something different.
So would you have painted it or left as is?

Such a pretty blue! I'm featuring it in this week's PoPP Spotlight.
I, too, would've hesitated to paint such a beautiful piece, but it turned out to be even more beautiful! You are a master with the wax...it's a lovely finish. ~Zuni
I'm generally not a fan of painting furniture but the blue you picked really makes the gorgeous desk top show to its best advantageous. Visiting from Shabby Nest.
I am glad you painted it because it is gorgeous. You did a super job, and you had a beautiful piece to start with. I saw your link at The shabby Nest link party. Ann Marie @ Iris Abbey
