Well, back a few weeks ago I wanted to build a desk. I finally got it made, but I think I got myself into something... anyways, I need help on what I can put on the top. Should I paint it, stain it? I'm lost, anyways if you could help....on the size of the desk, I know it is clunky, but it fits me, cause of the stuff I need close together, keyboard, laptop, tv, system...

Dont mind the clutter, im repainting, so everything is on my desk and stuff...

  1. I wasn't able to open your links but depending on what you like, ( I like something a little different) you might as well to something special. I would suggest doing a broken glass or ceramic tile mosaic on the top.

    You could just stain or paint the whole thing the same color, depending on the decor of your room. Cover the top with pictures of family, pets, or just pics of things you like and top with a custom cut glass top.

    If you're really skilled, get a wood burning kit and stencil a design on top and go to work. Make yourself proud!


  2. That's some neat desk you've made there!! I actually like the natural colour of the wood..though it does kinda stand out abit because your room looks a bit dark and your desk is such a light colour. I'd say stain it a slightly darker (not too dark) colour and then lightly varnish it to protect the surface. Funky desk!! :)
