Desk Organizer Makeover

I picked up an adorable wooden box at a yard sale over the summer. I haven't known what to do with it for the longest time, but I decided to make it a desk organizer and give it that undeniably cute, shabby chic look!
I wanted to give it a two-tone look so I started by painting the interior of the box a soft, light blue color.
Afterwards, I painted the outside solid white, and gave it 2 coats of paint.
Once it was dry, I sanded down the edges and sides to give it a distressed look. You can sand lightly to get a slight distressing, or sand roughly to give it major distressing.
I'm so pleased with how it turned out! Such an fun and easy DIY.
