Bookcase Project

Okay, so I told you about the bookcase that was unearthed in the garage after a little spring cleaning was done last weekend. It looked a little something like this:

My hubby had already stripped the old paint off of it and it was just sitting there screaming to be painted. We got this bookcase from his great grandmother, so I am glad that we pulled up our sleeves and did a little painting...even our little sleeves were pulled up!

We went with a nice light khaki color...which is the same color we used in Jonathan's room.  He was so excited to help!  His room, however is still a work in progress, so that will have to be another post on another day!  BUT...here is how the bookcase turned out.  I love the detail on the top!
