old garbage desk = new rad coffee table

phil found an old desk in the garbage last week and after hours of sanding, dismantling, staining with tung oil and sawing - it's ready for a reveal. the feet cost us $2 at the hardware store down the street, the tung oil was super easy to use and gave us the exact look we wanted and thankfully the side panels weren't load bearing so we popped them off no problem! so stoked about the new table. thanks for all the hard work, honey!

*update: this post was featured on design*sponge for before & after thursday. fuckin' eh!
