Re: Bookcase Makeover : Kerbside Find
Hello @cindyh68
Thank you very much for sharing your bookcase makeover project. Sometimes you have to use your imagination to see past the furniture's current condition. That black and white paint you've applied really makes the bookcase stand out. It looks so much better and it's fantastic that you've given this piece of furniture a second life.
Again, thank you for sharing such a wonderful project.
Eric

Re: Bookcase makeover from kerbside find
Well done @cindyh68 and many thanks for sharing.
Could you also share some tips for members who might like to upcycle their own piece of furniture? What are some of the things you learned or found most challenging during this project?
Thanks again,
Jason
