No more cardboard box nightstand!

After searching for quite some time I finally found the unique nightstand that I've been hunting for. I picked up this tiny corner secretary at a cool antique shop called Vignettes in Ocean Beach (http://www.yelp.com/biz/vignettes-antiques-and-collectibles-san-diego).  

Unfortunately, it was done in an awful shabby pink. The terrible sanding job took away from the pretty details.

But, after many, many, many layers of spray paint, here is what it looks like now:

I added a pretty knob to the drop leaf drawer and I am quite pleased with it.


Look! No more cardboard box!

It's darling. I love that it fits into the corner. And the white paint transforms it!
