Thrift Shop Farmhouse Shelf Makover

February 22, 2015

I purchased this dusty old shelf at the thrift shop for $5.


I gave it a couple of coats of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in "Pure White", and distressed it.

I added 1/2" chicken wire to the back of the door with staples.

It was easy!  Don't walk by a dated shelf at the thrift shop.  It just may have possibilities.
