WORK PERKS
To get a spacious desk for a song, lay a hollow-core door
across two sawhorses. Coat them all with scuff-resistant
high-gloss paint, and the sleek factor skyrockets. (We
used Benjamin Moore’s Trout Gray.) Then keep supplies
in reach with color-blocked pegboard, magnetic
sheet metal, and chalkboard that you can outfit with
standard-issue hooks, magnets, and shelves. Spray-paint
them gold to unify—and elevate—them. Organization?
Achieved. See page 117 for all the credits.
Made to Measure
The yardstick screwed
into the front edge
of this desk is clutch
for crafters and online
shoppers alike.
