I'm really not much of a painter, but every now and again, once in a blue moon as my Momma would say, I get the itch to paint. And really, who could resist this color?
I wish I had a before picture of this one....This corner book shelf was brought to my marriage in a state of undoing. It had been white poster board with pink and purple daisies on it...and in an effort to make it less girly, I had painted it a vibrant coral a few months before the wedding. So it sat by the bathroom holding our wash cloths, clashing miserably with the orange carpet. (And on top of that, the paint job was lousy....)
And since posterboard, no matter how many coats of paint it has, still shows it's ugly white finish, I decide to leave this one looking a little rustic. I put two really thick coats of paint on it, and then sanded all the edges, so the white, and coral shows through a little. And I love it!
Of course, Sierra wanted to help paint, but she had to wait it out in the bathroom until the job was finished. She was trying to eat it!
