TGIF!!!! I'm so glad it's the weekend, but there's relaxing ahead for this lady. This weekend I'll be finishing up a project.
Do you remember when built-in bookcases with planters were all the rage. Like this one, not the same one, but looks identical to what I have in my garage right now.

My client ripped one out when they had a house fire and the plan is to fix it up!
Here's the Mister doing a fine sanding job. From the picture you can kinda tell that she (the bookcase) is no petite thing, my hubby is 6' 4" and the bench he is on is at least 16" tall. (Note the RayBan "safety goggles." Certainly part of his geek chic attire.)
And here is the former planter box. What was the design industry thinking? Water... wood... in the house... go figure. But anywho, let's have a sneak peek shall we.
Looking good right! No more water stains, but what's next? Well, let me tell you. First, put a panel on the left side and stain. That's where the bookcase met the wall. Second, fix the top planter bed so its usable. I can't wait to share what's happening with the top, genius I tell you, pure genius.
The plan is to have it done for Metamorphosis Monday at Between Naps On The Porch.
Till next time (hopefully Monday)... happy blogging, antiquing and of course weekend!
