Garage Sale find

Oh, how happy I feel when I finally get around to a project that has been long overdue. I bought this shelf, bookcase thing-a-ma-jig at a sale for $10 - woohooo.....I saw it had potential even though the corner was beaten up. And....it sat in my pile of projects in the garage for months! I finally got motivated to organize our bathroom. So I hauled it out, sanded it down a little, fixed the beaten corner with wood filler, patiently waited (overnight...ugh I hate waiting...) and painted it.  Of course I distressed it, because I pretty much distress everything!  I love how it turned out and it got me motivated to repaint the cabinet door I had outside and turned it into a jewelery rack.  I found some "HIS" & "HERS" hooks at Rod Works that were perfect.  I still need to organize some other parts of the bathroom, like my hair and makeup junk but this is a great start!
