A couple years ago, my brother gave me his old crappy, desk. It didn't match anything, but it was a desk, and I need one. So I took it, FREE, and have been using it since. Well, my kids have a way to turn said crappy ugly desk, into SUPER ugly, crappy desk, by taping and removing tape, and thus removing the black paper, that is covering this cardboard desk, he he. Actually it's pretty sturdy, I joke, but it SURE is ugly.
Ok, anyway, I have been wanting a new desk so bad, BUT, I don't want to fork over any money for one, since I already have one, lol. EVen if it is UGLY, which it is. BUT it works, and if you know me by now, I hate spending money on things, that I already have, or can make myself. Ok, so what to do then. On top of everything else, I decided to put this desk, smack dab in the middle of our living area, so EVERYONE can admire the UGLY desk, and laugh at how flippin CHEAP I am.
In October, while at Goodwill, I found some awesome contact paper, and got it for like a buck, or two.
I've been trying to figure out where to put it, and then it struck me. I can REDO my VERY UGLY desk.
