I got this wonderful piece from my neighbor after she set it out on the curb with a FREE sign on it. A black widow got to it before I did, but my husband quickly solved that problem. So it sat in my garage for about a month or two and was actually serving its storage purposes, but my husband wanted it in his office.
We decided to make his office the December project around here (which will be posted as soon as it's done) so he cleaned up his office as soon as I started sanding the shelves. Obviously I'm still a little new to blogging about my projects because I didn't think to take a before pic until the first coat of paint was already on.
My hubby picked the color. I had to replace the back panel (which was really fun demo work for me :) so we came up with a cool idea of painting stripes on the back. He even helped me with the taping. Working with color is taking me out of my comfortable neutral bubble. I welcome the challenge!
After we paint the whole room (the same gray as the stripes) we'll be ready to place the furniture and accessorize. I'm so excited! Thanks again Stacey for the shelf!
One more week and I'll be one quarter closer to having my Interior Design degree! Only 8 more to go. *sigh*
OMGosh I love this piece! Such a great color combo!!
