$1 Store Shelves

So these little shelves I have had for years, but I originally got them at the $1 Store.  They were white and didn't work for the look I wanted, so I painted them brown with a black coat on top and then a clear coat. 

I grew up with my mom always taking something we had around the house and she would strip it down and repaint/stain it to make it work.  So that's my motto "Take what you have and make it work",  most everything in my house has been re-used, re-painted, or re-made. 

Thanks Mom, Love you!
