IKEA Billy Bookcase Makeover
by

My friends at Homeright sent the brand ambassadors a challenge to change up a plan ole small IKEA Billy bookcase. A few things went wrong along the way, that sent me on to PLAN B.
Using paint and some reclaimed fencing, I changed up the look of a small IKEA Billy bookcase.
If you have an IKEA Billy bookcase hanging around from your college days or your first apartment, don't throw it out or donate it, give it a new look with some paint and rustic wood.
I used my Homeright Finish Max and my new Spray Shelter to give the assembled bookcase a fresh coat of French Vanilla from Heirloom Traditions.
After painting the entire bookcase, I gave the bookcase an "outer shell" of reclaimed wood fencing to disguise the fact that it's a Billy!
