Craigslist Desk/Bookshelf

This is the latest Craigslist find.  I bought it for my daughter's room.  She currently has a small desk on one wall and then a large bookshelf on another.  I feel like her room is crowded and decided to get rid of her desk and bookshelf and just get 1 piece of furniture.  It should fit her room much better.  All of her furniture is white, so I used left over paint from those projects.  I forgot how much of a pain it is to paint with latex.  I had to sand this and prime it as well.  I also removed the decorative railing on the lower shelf and filled all of those holes.  I removed the decorative locks on the drawers as well and filled in those holes.  I replaced all hardware and sealed everything with clear poly.  I also had a piece of plexiglass cut to cover the desk surface.
