Bookshelf Makeover
Before
I purchased this bookshelf at a yard sale for a whopping $2. It was covered in crusty black paint but had potential.
I started standing and the black paint came off like coal dust.
More standing uncovered some yellow paint and the original white top coat. I sanded the entire bookcase until all surfaces were smooth (this took awhile). I them applied 3 coats of my free Clark-Kensington paint in Anchors Away gray.
After
I put the bookcase right along the wall right by the garage where we enter and exit the house most days. It has become a great landing spot for keys, wallets, and sunglasses.
For only $2 and some elbow grease I think it turned out pretty cute!
