We have tiled the desktop. We also replaced the lights in the slide. The PO had two different lights, which almost worked when the divider was in place, but with it opened up into one space we felt the lights had to match.
The big box home retailer had just two or three that were flush enough to the ceiling with a pull chain. We picked one that had the jelly-jar look, but a cream colored base. We picked up a can or rattle paint in a hammered bronze finish. With the new paint, the lights have an industrial look.
We picked up molding for the front edge of the desk. We stained it walnut and applied one coat of urethane. It too will be installed tomorrow. On the back wall around the desk area we have installed 12 x 12 inch cork squares. We will add ¼ inch black elastic to hold photographs and other papers.
