Stunning Restoration of a Vintage School Desk

Taking a cheap old school desk from the thrift store and turning it into a treasure. Brought to us by Squarespace. For 10% off your first purchase, go to: http://squarespace.com/makesomething

I discovered a neglected old-school desk at a thrift store for a bargain of just $10. I'm going to completely restore it and bring it back to a like-new condition. Using some beautiful locally grown walnut wood, I aim to transform this school desk into a stunning piece of fine furniture that I can then sell. The profits from this sale will be used towards funding our next upcycling project from the thrift store. This has been one of the most enjoyable woodworking projects I've worked on and I'm truly thrilled with the outcome.
