I have been working on a project these past few weeks that I am absolutely loving so far. I found this cupboard/bookshelf/nowmyentertainmentstand on the side of the road by my house with signs on it that said (my favorite word) FREE! I made my son and my good friend, Brent, go down the road with me to get this thing. It was HUGE and HEAVY! B had the brilliant idea to take the two scooters down and use them as a pull along deal. So they lifted the heavy cupboard part onto the scooters and scooted that baby on home. I shoved the book shelve things in my back seat and truck and drove down the road a wee bit way to my garage. I was SOOO excited about this find because I had gone garage selling all day trying to find something to use as my new entertainment stand. I found her and she was FREE! Heck yes!
So here is a crappy picture of her before the start of the makeover:
So you can kind of see how it looked....all dusty but in great shape. The shelves are not in the book case but it had like 4 shelves with it. So I will be showing this in two separate posts because I have the bottom half finished and I just cannot wait to show how it looks.
How did you do the paint? I'm looking to do something similar from a paint perspective to some cabinets that I have but they are already dark. I really like the color you chose.
