Corey’s Desk

Nov 20, 2014 | News

Corey and his wife, Brynn, came into the store one day in search of a desk. I told them we didn’t have what they were looking for in the store but may have something at our barn. They stopped by a few weeks later and gave the go ahead to paint this guy in Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint Grain Sack.

It had everything Corey needed: Lots of worktop space, a masculine feel and plenty of storage. We all agreed that the hardware was really interesting an decided to keep it.

The person I purchased the desk from told me that it was handmade and as we started painting, we found some interesting details like this stamp “09 58”. I love this kind of stuff – and Corey does too! I immediately texted him to tell him we know now that his new desk was made in September 1958.

Corey was thrilled and Brynn liked it too…a couple months later we found a desk for her…
