Friday's Finished Project!

Hello friends!

I have finally completed my project!

Let me tell you, it's been a VERY time consuming

project!

I got the idea from a pin I saw on Pinterest.

I have always wanted built in bookshelves and thought

this would be a way I could do it myself.

They are made with unfinished wooden crates from

Michael's and painted a creamy white.

I started collecting the crates and that wasn't quite as

simple as I thought it would be.  Our Michael's does not

stock very many at a time and many times I'd go in only

to find they were out.  The other problem I had was

that the quality was not consistent and I wouldn't buy

some of them.  :(

I also used my coupons to get them 40% off as often

as possible! 

The paint I used was Mystique by Valspar.  Boy, did I

get tired of painting crates!  Then having to let them dry

long enough before they could be stacked.

I am still playing with all my little cubbies and trying

to figure out what I want to put on them.

I have too much stuff!

I love that I can have a huge book shelf that I can

take apart and move whenever I feel like it!

Hope you enjoyed seeing my finished project!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Love, Twyla
