Randi, that desk is amazing!!! How did you do the map on top? So freakin' cool.
A lot of people have been moving from our apartment complex so I've found some awesome stuff by the dumpster this past week. It's kind of fun being poor, it forces you to get really creative with stuff that you find.

First of all....love your label "free crap". Second of all, I love your creativity and choice of color! I've refinished other people's "crap" before with paint and spray paint. Which did you use? They turned out great!
