When I ran a business from home, I had a huge desk and it was always full of junk and I had what I used to call "a lasagna" approach to paperwork, it just used to be in layers. I'd put papers to one side, and then put more papers to the same one side, and then more and more. It was the worlds most untidy desk. Consequently, I certainly wasn't something I wanted to preserve for posterity in a photo. LOL

I've used Frenchic paint on numerous items and their top coat really does work well as a protecter and sealant - it's not going to be as hard wearing as your current finish is but if you use a coaster with cups and don't drop anything heavy on it, it should be fine. It's worth giving surfaces a light sand and wipe down before painting too.

That’s very clever Marina. I love the snug . I had a bit of a rearrange of our existing furniture yesterday and think I’ve convinced them to have an l shaped sofa by the window and in front of the fire. We’ll use the space on the left wall for the office and also have some space for our daughters to do their art and school homework. The existing sofa and cabinet are pieces that we brought back with us when we moved from Florida back to the UK, and to be honest, they have always been a bit too big for a UK home. Because of the conservatory (which has internal thermal panelling, the room can be a bit dark, so instead of the dark partition, do you think something like glass bricks would work?

how to lime wash this desk?
Q

I also think it’s a pity to change it. However even the most lovely furniture sells for very little at auction so you might as well make it work for you. Limewash is not a bad choice because you don’t need much preparation. Give it a good wash down first, paint it with a brush, choose a cooler day to do it because it looks better if allowed to dry slowly. However I think I might look at Milk paint. Great environmental credentials, more colour choices, and you can apply just a wash, then if you want more depth of colour apply extra layers (with a light sand between coats). And details in the furniture can be highlighted at the end with an antique wax. Please post a pic of the finished product
