But sometimes a gray bookshelf is just a gray bookshelf.
They are not twins - just close enough to go together.
I thought of a wash of a dark gray over the light.
I thought about stamping some clever phrases on the two.
As I was cleaning them, I found this old shipping label on the bottom of one of them.
So I decided to clean and sand.
And really that is all they needed.
One had a white linen patina after sanding.
One had a purple chippy look.
A rose is just a rose ...
A gray bookshelf is just another gray bookshelf.
If I do not respond to your nice comments right away, do not fear, I am working on the new booth.
Which I know you are quite tired of hearing about.
But I plan to continue to bombard you until the final reveal.
See y'all!
PS Happy 61st B-Day to Me! How did I get that old?

Happy Birthday!!! The shelves look great and sometimes things just need a little pick me up and not a total makeover. I am so not tired of hearing about your booth. I wish I could be there to see it in person.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Donna! I don't how we turn around and we're old. Sheesh. I don't mind except for the creakiness of my body. I rather like the mature me more than I liked the immature me.
ReplyDeleteI like those bookshelves grey too!
Keep up the good work.
Happy Birthday, Donna!
ReplyDeleteHey Miss Donna; Happy, Happy Birthday!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are not old at all, You are only getting better with age like a fine wine!!! :-D
I for one can not wait to see your booths, and what all you have done.
Take Care!!! :-)
Donna, Happy Happy Birthday!! I wondered the same thing this year when I turned 60. How in the world did I get that age! LOL!! Have fun with your new booth and can't wait to see it when it is done.
ReplyDeleteCant wait to see the new booth it is going to be amazing with all the lovely shelves!
ReplyDeletecute set of shelves you have there.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say... nice set of racks... and boost your bday sails, but wasn't sure how you'd take that, since we barely know each other.
so instead I'll just say, Happy belated birthday to you!
Hope you had a wonderful birthday Donna! Sorry I missed it. Looking forward to seeing the news space~
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! I'm on your heels at 58! Best wishes on getting your booth together. I am running late, so you may have finished by now. I will catch up soon!
