In the past, I've written about furniture that I see on the curb like this chalkboard, these shelves, this door, this bar cart, and more shelves. If only I had room to hold them temporarily, I would have taken all of these home so I can turn them from blah to TADA!
But I found an exception with this low bookshelf:
It's not heavy, has a small footprint, and serendipitously, I do need more shelves for new books.
I'm not a big fan of the gray sections, though.
But nothing that paint can't solve!
I covered my work space with newspaper.
And I painted the gray areas black, adding several more coats in between drying.
Here are a few ways I can use it at home:
A bookshelf to house my growing collection and a place to display some art...TADA!

A greenery shelf because plants make us happy and help purify the air...TADA!

Or as a place to organize my husband's coffee-brewing accessories...TADA!
If you come across old furniture, find a way to turn them from blah to TADA! Otherwise, you can donate them to The Salvation Army, Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity ReStore or thrift store near you. Also, please subscribe here if you want to receive my newsletter. Have a good week!
I, too, like the shelf better with the black supports instead of gray. It looks great!
