I commonly read this blog and this blog - and by commonly I mean everyday (and everyday I check it several times a day) Shameless.
They came up with the Pinterest Challenge : Read about Sherry's And Carmel's And Sarah's And last but not least, Katie's
I've read the posts, but never really thought that I would participate. And I really didn't have any intentions on participating this time. Daniel and I just happened to do a small project this past weekend where I had gotten the idea from pinterest. So why not?!
My inspiration came from this picture on pinterest:
We had been looking for a cute bookshelf for Hadleigh's room, and we had this one saved. I wasn't willing to spend $69!
Here's what we started out with. They're from Michael's and they were $4 per crate.
We then used flat white spray paint and added a few girly details to them. They were $1 from Michael's as well. The flowers came in a packet and the owls came in another. This is our finished product and I absolutely love it!
What a WONDERFUL idea! I too have my eye on one for my sister in law that is due in April; however, Pottery barn is my bookmarker & it's $124! Seeing has though I also want to FILL it with books, this could get pricey. You're project is my new inspiration so I can spend my money on the books! Thanks = )
ReplyDeleteThanks!! I figured there had to be a less expensive option out there -and it was so easy! Good Luck - you're sister-in-law will LOVE it!
