Upcycled Thrift Store Bookend
Thrift store finds make me happy, especially when you see it and instantly know it can be transformed into something new! That's just what happened when I found this single wood bookend for a dollar!
As soon as I spotted it I thought it would make a nice little wall shelf with it's pretty carved details.
Using a piece of wood that I picked up at a craft store and some paint and clear and dark waxes that I had on hand I transformed the bookend giving it a new purpose and look.
It also gave me a new little spot to decorate, happiness!

Gorgeous! I love the paint color and styling of it.

I have 2 thick, heavy corner "shelves" that I have been trying to think of something to do with. Well you just helped me think of something. I have multiple fake birds and nests about my house. I think one will now house the nest and eggs and the other the bird. Now where to put them? Laundry I believe. Thanks again
