Bookshelf For The Boys.



The hubby built the boys a simple, easy, and space-saving bookshelf. 

Adding to the never-ending list of things I need to paint around here. 

I thought that rather than waiting to post it until I got it painted (also known as probably a year from now), I would show it to you all in it's natural bare wood glory. 



(note the still unpainted bunkbed framing that shot..... I think we have hit the 18-20 month mark now... HELP.)




The major needs for this project were that we needed it to hold a lot of books, and we needed it to take up as little space as possible. 

I think he nailed it.

  3. Try quick dry varnish - comes in a range of wood colours - touch dry in 20 minutes, re-coatable in 1 hour. Goes on milky and dries clear, comes in Matt, Satin or Gloss finish.

    At least it's quick and doesn't smell too strong!
