So the next piece of furnishings is this old turn of the century roll top desk I acquired from an older gentleman who had acquired it from a NE Georgia college back in the 60’s. The fabric holding the slats had torn and needed mending but other than that about all I had to do to it was repair...
Thanks impala, I really appreciate your appreciation! Passion and vision has gotten me to where I am with this build. But don’t look to close at the workmanship 😁
Thanks Jon!
Thank you!
Well damn, THANK YOU BF
Looks like a survivor!
Love the four doors!
Then applied the English Chestnut stain to all but the top. I mixed in some Sienna Red at 3/1 to the EC and applied it to the center of the top.
Then applied two coats of Matte poly to the base and three to the top.
Applied the rough sanded flooring to the top then cut down some beadboard for to trim it out with. I also found the few pieces of interior trim from the old farm house and cut and applied it. I had a VERY limited number of pieces of it so had to ensure the miter cuts were right. I only had a 6"...
