My New Favorite Project


This is my new favorite project!  I spruced up my old bookshelf with this great Dr. Seuss quote. The bookshelf was an old brown laminate that had definitely seen better days.  I primed the bookshelf (two coats) and then painted it dark blue. Then I applied the wall quote sticker (I bought mine at Ebay) and painted over it with a lighter blue (two coats). After about an hour or two, I removed the stickers.  The next day, I put two coats of clear Polycrylic over the top to protect it.  It was definitely time consuming to wait for the layers to dry (a day or so between each coat) but definitely worth it!
