Rustic Cross X Desk

May 21, 2020

Since the world has been on lockdown, my house has been in a state of over due projects lately. 

I needed a new desk in my office and came across this one from Ana White and just fell in love.
My office is now complete with this beautiful desk

The original plan didn't call for the X on the front but, I had it added at the very end.It just seemed like the cohesive thing to do.

Simple desk decor

Here is a side view of the desk and I love it everytime I see it.



Rustic top uses 2 x 4's


I wanted the rustic look and the boards on the desktop are so pretty

I love the "rustic" nature of the desk.

This is a view from the back of the desk. It has two shelves to the right.

My original plan was to stain the desk but, in the end I settled on paint. I used Agreeable Gray by Sherwin Williams


This desk was the first project on a list of projects that consumed the month of April. Some other parts of our home that have been getting some love are....

The inside.....
Hallway painted
bathroom painted and new hardware
foyer painted
living room painted
new furniture
new rug
new accessories
installed keyless door locks
installed cameras
new doorbell
laundry room painted
new office desk


The outside....
cafe lights hung
new sectional patio set
new rug
new accesories

I am happy to be able to get some of the items off my to do list, but really happy to have a new desk in my office.


Make sure to check out Ana White cause, girls got some mad wood building skills.


Until next time!
