Project 2: Desktop Makeover

Title: Love Art
Media: Coloured backings and plastic on wood


Lesson #1: Never do "heavy-duty" projects indoors.

Lesson #2: Accidentaly inhaling contact glue fumes does funny things to your brains.

Lesson #3: Using a tacking gun after dinner guarantees an instant audience in the form of your neighbours. :p

This desk was originally from Mum's high school - due to its numerous years of sturdy service and its sentimental value, it is perfectly understood that the desk cannot, I repeat, cannot be thrown away.

Unfortunately for this piece of furniture, it met with a cosmetic accident (involving a lot of PVA glue...don't ask) late last year, and its hasn't been quite the same since. The good news however, is that the extent of damage was only skin deep.

Thus project Desktop Makeover commenced 05/02/08 and completed the next day.
