Painting a Desk

Nesting is continuing at my house.  I'm going to bed every night with dishes done, bathrooms wiped down, and the floor swept, I'm taking down curtains that have been hanging and returning them, I'm sewing random things, I'm organizing closets, I've even gone to the garage and wiped out tool boxes and separated screws from nails.

One more thing to add to the list is painting this desk.  I first painted it green...it wasn't the right color.  I hated looking at it and kept imagining something better.  THIS is it.  I love love love it.  I'm leaving orange (goodbye, orange!) as a decor color and going to do something different.  And although I just made the kitchen valance, it's going too.  My husband just laughs at my randomness right now.  It's a fun stage of pregnancy.

This desk was a craigslist find.  It has old separator drawers, too - totally antique.  I really like the wood grain top.

And just in case you don't believe that I'm prego...here a little self-pic from yesterday.  Right after this my kids tackled me and we had a funny picture taking session of ourselves.  It was great!
