Refurbished Shelf

I wanted to make a post to show the changes that came from the shelf that I purchased at an antique store for $50.

I had to do some fixing before the painting started.  The bottom detail was damaged with a bad nail so I took it completely off and turned it around.  The other side didn’t have any problems.  Then I took off part of the back that had a hole cut in it.  I did the same prep work as I did on the entry table in the previous post.  I did some sanding, to take the sheen off of the previous paint.  I skipped the primer because it wasn’t dark paint I was trying to cover.  Then just painted a couple of coats of the same paint as the table.   The original paint was creamy yellow that didn’t match the floor as good.  So I picked a color that was lighter.  Then installed it by screwing it into studs.  I think it turned out good.  Check us out later to see the room as a whole.  Thanks for visiting!
