Remember this lovely?
A dealer from Atlanta had this in her truck and didn't want it. She wanted a bookcase I had in my booth, so we traded. I personally think I did better in the deal. I LOVE the curves and character this bookcase has.
I painted it Grey. I don't know what color grey since it was a $5.00 can of OOPS paint from Home Depot. It was Behr exterior flat paint, and it is the PERFECT shade of grey. I don't normally like flat paint, but I love how easy it was to roll and brush on. It took 2 coats of paint. I know, I usually spray paint my stuff, but the bigger pieces I like to paint. It would be expensive to spray this piece, and RustO doesn't make a grey paint I like.
These pics are after being painted, but before they were distressed. I like it this way too, but I LOVE to distress stuff. I just think it gives a piece more personality to be roughed up.
This was the back of the bookcase. I can't believe someone would hang this heavy piece on the wall. But it would be cute.
You like? I just need to put a coat of paste wax on it and it will be done.
This one will be hard to let go of. I just don't have anymore room in house for another piece. It will make its Corner Store debut tomorrow morning. So if you like, RUN.....
