A DIY/DECOR PROJECT

Now I have this bookshelf/dresser/hutch thing, found by grandma who offered it to me, sitting in my room. Now it is completely adorable but to be honest it doesn't quite fit in my room. No really it doesn't fit. It makes my room feel crowded. But so does other furniture so maybe its something else... Anyway!! It's been a few months that I've had it "redone" (Check out what we did on my sisters blog) but I think it still needs a little bit more (knobs). Plus my decor isn't superb but it can do for now. Check it out!

So I wasn't keen on the color. It was too baby boy nursery for me than "Sky Blue" as the spray paint was called but it can do for now. And when I have my own place I can either work with the color or paint it again. I think it will look great in my future apartment living room!

 

 

Pictured here at the top of the shelf are some knick knacks and books. Most of those books I received for FREE(Score!) when I volunteered for San Antonio's Luminaria Festival. I knew I wanted to start a book collection so I took a whole box full home! And my vintage One Step Polaroid Camera! I found it at Goodwill for two dollars!  The metallic deer was found at Ross. 

 Middle Shelf. The good old Dog Bible. Delicious apple cinnamon candle burning throughout the day everyday. And in this picture you can see how me and my sister gave it a "vintage rust" look.

 And this little guy was also from Goodwill. $2.00? His paint job looks bad in the photo but he actually is a very clean white tricycle. Cute right? I plan to paint him another color soon but I'm not so sure.

And on the bottom shelf are some perfumes/body sprays.  Someday by Justin Bieber smells so good. I have been itching to find a glass perfume tray and found one at a local thrift vintage shop but 10 bucks is to much for me for that. So I'm still on my hunt.

I feel that there are too many books on this shelf but I'm still working on it. When I change it up I will keep you posted! xoxo Sam
