Bookshelf is done!

Image
Jessica needed a bookshelf, so we finally came up with a plan. We looked online a bunch & found some interesting designs. Started with the cheapest pine 1x10 we could find & "distressed" it, then followed with super dark stain, & some clear coat. Then we made about 22 separate boxes, 12"x24", & stacked them in random patterns, overall it's about 7' square, lots of room for books. We rearranged the room a bit, moved the desk over, and hung up our first picture (after 2 years!) This was a wedding gift from Uncle Duane (he painted it!) & Auntie Elaine. Next up is a porch & entryway...waiting on a building permit.
