BOOKSHELF MAKEOVER WITH BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES

It’s amazing what a coat of paint did to these 3 old bookshelves we snagged for a steal from a seller on Facebook Marketplace. Before we got our hands on them, this is how the modular unit appeared.

This piece was old, but not that old. It was made with cheap 70’s laminate fake wood, so I knew there was no way I could make it a pretty natural wood piece. The best option was to paint it.

I wanted to make this bookeshelf makeover as easy as possible, so spraying it was ideal and sanding it down wasn’t really an option due to the laminate covering.

And here she is, painted and styled. After removing the doors, I decided I liked all 3 without the doors.

I love the interest in perfectly styled open shelving with all sorts of goodies, I felt simplicity really calling to me for this piece.

I went to an antique store for a few pieces, and a thrift store for a few more.

Some of them are not my favorite pottery pieces ever, but together they look pretty neat.
