I just moved, and was thinking that I would find an old piece of furniture I could refinish with Wise Owl Chalk Synthesis Paints. But a quick perusal of the local second hand stores was yielding no great finds, and I needed a desk like, yesterday.  This was my solution, and I am so glad I found it.  Solid, easy to assemble (not always a given) and not overbearing in a small multifunctional room.  I cannot wait to see it painted!
