I have been obsessed with this vignette for a while now.
I love the color combination, the royal blue and pink makes melt me.
When I found this desk I knew it would be perfect in a yummy blue.
3 coats later and the desk was transformed.
It did take me 3 days though since the rustoleum protective enamel paint requires 24 hours between coats.
Oil based paint is also such a pain to clean up, but the shiny lacquered finish on the desk is definitely worth it.
I stole the hardware from my DIY Rast side table.
I love them. Looks like I need to order more.
Now it’s time to get working on my DIY art project.
Not going to lie, kinda nervous for that one!
I’m in love with your desk! Also love the hardware.
looks awesome!!
Oh beautiful! I love blue right now too, especially more on the bright peacock blue side of things. I redid a dresser as a tv cabinet/console a few months ago in a similar shade of blue and I love it!
What a fun blue! Looks great, Danielle:)
This looks awesome! I’m always so intimidated by oil based paint or maybe I’m just impatient and don’t want to wait for it to dry… 😉 Looks like the end result is worth it though!
Seriously amazing!!! Would you mind possibly sharing the name?
Thanks!

Oh my goodness…. I am in love with that. What an awesome transformation!
Love the finished look! What a great job!
Love it Danielle!! It looks amazing. The cobalt is the absolute perfect shade for that desk.

It looks great! I love that deep blue! My husband and I re-painted a desk a few years ago but never put a protective coat on it…wish we would have though, the top already looks like it needs some help 🙁
I love it! looks amazing I am loving the blue xo
ah! i love it! that blue is gorgeous. great job. can’t wait to see the art project too!
Wow…it looks fantastic! I love the blue color you chose!!
That looks so cute Dan! Love the blue as well as the handles!
great job – love the color, hardware.. everything!
Do you use a spray paint or a brush? Do you ever spray paint on your deck…and if so how do you keep your railing paint free?
Wow – what a transformation! I love that you went with such a bold colour choice – can’t wait to see it in your house 🙂
Yep, that’s pretty much perfect. So, thumbs-up on the paint? Did you need to put a protective cover on it or not needed?
That looks amazing! I’m also curious about whether you used any kind of protective coating.
Such incredible makeover. Loving this shade of blue. Congrats!!
love!!
That’s really beautiful, Danielle! Love that blue and the hardware is perfect.
It turned out great!
Great color! Love it.
It’s so beautiful!!! Wow. What a scrumptious color. Love that hardware as well. I have used it on two pieces! So pretty. You rock, my dear.
The desk looks amazing! I love the transformation! can’t wait to see what’s next! 🙂
Is that paint dry??? that’s how high gloss it is?!?! Oh, I must try it! is that the off-the-shelf blue? it’s stunning…and your artwork will be as well!
This is beautiful Danielle! I love the ultra glossy finish
Beautiful! I love the color and the high-gloss! And the drawer pulls looks fantastic on it! Great job!
Your desk looks amazing – the colour is stunning! I’d love to see it dressed with accessories. Great job!
