Craigslist Bookcase Makeover
by

We bought 2 ugly bookcases on Craigslist for $150 and transformed them into something special for our youngest daughter's room. You can read more about the transformation here: http://diydesignfanatic.blogspot.com/2011/07/from-ugly-to-beautiful.html
This is the photo in Craigslist that I responded to. I knew they were the perfect bookcases to makeover.
The contrasting paint in the back of the bookcase really makes the books and accessories inside stand out.
We built up both the bottoms and tops of the bookcase with molding. Click on the blog link to see how we did it. Our daughter loved how the makeover turned out!
Enjoyed the project?
