New School Room

Same room, different look :) I needed to get some shelves up and I just wasn't finding anything I really wanted enough to mess with the hassle that is buying new furniture.

But I needed shelves.

So, on a whim one afternoon I had the bright idea to take the two ugly shelves in the garage and paint them. Of course this whim couldn't include the effort to go buy paint.. so I figured I could combine some colors I had in the garage. I think I should have added more gray and/or green... but for an afternoon of work on a whim, I'm pretty happy with how they came out.

it didn't seem quite complete, so I got the (also ugly) coffee table out of the garage and painted it too.

I ordered a quick valance on etsy and called it a day. I'm actually loving how it came out.

Making this one sort of big so you can see the fabric above the window :)


The table has paint marks on it, sorry... guess I should have wiped it down better last time we painted :)
