Corner Shelves & DIY Nightstands

DAY 1

My dad gave me a brief rundown on how to use some of the tools in his shop.  So while he was at work I got to play in the garage.  I started off small with a couple of corner shelves.

Then I began to get braver.  A friend of mine had a wooden backdrop she used for her photography shoots that she wasn't using anymore so I got up the courage to attempt to build myself a couple of nighstands

Not too bad for a days work...

DAY 2

So I'm trying to go with a sort of beach theme for my bedroom.

 First step was putting on primer

 Benton was helping paint

 Took gray paint (Valspar) with a satin top coat mixed, painted over top then wiped off.
