Refurbish an old wooden desk by restoring its original charm with a few upgrades. This project revives worn-out furniture, making it functional and stylish for modern use.
Start by thoroughly cleaning the desk and sanding down the surface to remove old paint, stains, and scratches. Once the surface is smooth, apply a new stain or paint in your desired color.
If you want a vintage look, consider a distressed or chalk-paint finish. Replace old hardware with modern handles or knobs to give it an updated look. Optionally, you can add a layer of protective sealant or wax to maintain the desk's condition and prevent further damage.
The result is a classic, polished desk that retains its vintage appeal while fitting perfectly into any modern office or home.
