Good morning! I cannot believe that it's almost Thanksgiving.....time is just flying by. Seriously....this is my most FAVORITE time of the year and I would love to slow it down a bit. There are so many fun things to do with your family this time of year. My son and I were flying solo this past week while my husband went deer hunting. He's coming home with a buck today and a HUGE smile as well. I am not a huge fan of venison, however, I guess I will be surfin' the internet for some yummy recipes.
I purchased this book case a few years back at a garage sale. It was in good condition, however it just looked really dark.
So, I gave it a coat of Kilz primer and then painted the back of the bookcase a fun green color. The rest of the bookcase received a coat of my favorite Benjamin Moore white paint, which runs a bit higher in price but is worth every cent. Here is an after picture of the bookcase. I like it better after....it looks brighter and cleaner!
Have a great day!!!
