BOOKCASES AREN'T JUST FOR BOOKS

I CAME ACROSS THIS BOOKSHELF THE OTHER

DAY WERE ELSE BUT AT THE UNIQUE THRIFT STORE

AND I COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT IT WAS MARKED $2.99

IT WAS IN ROUGH SHAPE BUT IT WAS ALL

WOOD AND HAD A VERY RUSTIC LOOK TO IT.

I ALSO THOUGHT THE COLOR GAVE IT A UNIQUE

FARM LOOK TO IT. I ENVISIONED IT

IN MY GUEST BATHROOM FOR TOWEL

STORAGE.

THE BEFORE

IT HAD SOMETHING STICKY ALL

OVER IT AND THE TOP HAD A STICKER DOWN

THE CENTER OF IT

AND MY AFTER AND A NEW PURPOSE

FOR THIS PIECE...

I LOVE HOW THE DISTRESSING TURNED OUT

I KEPT SOME OF THE ORIGINAL PAINT AND

WENT OVER IT WITH A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT GREEN.

I WANTED IT TO HAVE THAT WORN FARM LOOK.

I PUT IT RIGHT IN THE BATHROOM

UNDER A WINDOW AND ITS THE

EXACT PIECE I ENVISIONED IT TO BE

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
