Well, we decided to go ahead and strip the paint from the top. Then we gave it a good sanding to get rid of the stains and blemishes that the paint was supposed to cover up.
Not quite sure why that wasn’t the plan to begin with!
It has a slightly different feel but I always love a nice wood top!
Have you ever had a project fail? What did you do to fix it or did you just scrap the whole project?
It was quite a bummer when we had paint issues the first go around. So glad it was able to be fixed and glad that I'm happy with how plan B turned out!
i had a desk that got a giant gouge on it when it was at chartreuse (a year and a half ago when i was part of wild rose) and i ended up stripping and staining the top to fix it and in the end loved it better. happy accidents! 🙂
Love that top now! I almost always look at the tops now in hopes that I can just restain. Not many are candidates these days, but I love when that happens 🙂
I hate it when a project doesn't work the first time, but in your case the end result looks fabulous so it was worth the headache!

Oh boy it happens like that to us all! The newer 'look' is wonderful!
