Ladies Writing Desk/Vanity

I LOVE making these ladies writing desks/vanities.  This one is more of a ladies writing desk, but can be used either way.  It started as a plain desk.

With a bit.. ok a LOT of work...
some appliques ..

and some elbow grease..
(make sure you have vice clamps..
or you can just stand there and hold it for 1/2 hour like I did)


Layers of paint, crackle, more paint and glaze...
and of course the real beauty is on the top
A collection of vintage Paris images....
Se Magnifique!!







A lot of work... but worth the effort I think, don't you?
Dimensions
38 w x 29 h x 19 deep
