Picked this little gem up and wanted to add a little extra class and pizazz. After sanding her down, I taped off the sides and liked the raw wood color to paint chevron. I loved the original knobs and so wanted to try and maintain them and work around their style. The top 2 drawers were lined with a unique print paper. I really like the size and think it would be really sweet in a little boy's bedroom or to don a corner room and display your gold trimmed fancy bar necessities.

Milo's little Bookshelf
Our dearly beloved little neighbors had an old bookshelf that they wanted refinished with a little childlike charm. I hauled it home and began contemplating what possibilities I actually wanted to endeavor with this one. It would be going in little Miles' room which needed a little bit of color help. There were lots of muted greys and blues with a really fun painting above his changing table. The painting had a variety of bright colors so I shot for a turquoise pop. I wasn't about to paint the whole thing turquoise as I wanted to maintain a little masculine class with the wood, so I landed on an internal color external neutral wood. Plus they ended up getting an orange chevron rug that tied in some of the other hues in that painting. All in all I found it to be really dear and timeless. Harper was helping me get a few toys in order and good book seemed to catch her eye- my kinda girl.
