Before~
Although I really like brown this was a little much so I transformed this brown bookshelf into this new turquoise one. It was a little loud for my taste so I toned it down with tinted black glaze and added material to the back.
After:
Hope you like it! I will be selling this little guy at a flea market April 10th, here in Dallas. I'll be adding a note to my side bar with all the specifics of the flea market for anyone here in the Dallas area.
Thanks for looking,
Rita

Hey Shannon, In response to your question, I actually used material. Wallpapwer would have probably been easier but I liked the print on this one. :)
