Desk Project

So my desk is almost complete! It only took a few hours to sand and paint, but the rain has been delaying me. 

One of the legs was pretty badly damaged. To fix it, I filled it with wood filler and had to saw about an inch off the other three legs to level the desk. I'm still in need of a knob for the drawer, but I found one I really like at Anthropologie.com for $8.00. 

Here's the break down --

Desk: Free
Wood filler: $2.49 at local hardware store
Paint: $8.49 (Lowe's Olympic - Plantation Moss)
Hardware: $8.00 at Anthropologie

Total project cost: $ 18.98
