Bookcase: Before & After
I bought this old mdf bookcase at a consignment store. With a little love and attention this is how it turned out. I added beadboard to the back. I used Miss Mustard Seed's paint formula. She is a genius. I painted the entire bookcase with "creamy" by Sherwin Williams and then I rubbed on and rubbed off Ralph Lauren's Faux effects glaze tinted with expresso bean. I amVERY happy with how it turned out. I painted the top with a chocalate brown paint that i mixed myself to the right color that I wanted. You can really see the beadboard below.
Make it a GREAT DAY!!! Be sure and check us out tomorrow. We will be having a sister vs. sister knock-off contest!!!
