TRASH TO TREASURY

Front moulding for shelves.




I picked this up a while ago at a mobile home surplus store. They were used in Clayton Homes a few years ago to make built in intertainment center. I was in desperate need of some shelves in the living room to display my pictures and nick nacks. There is not a fire place in the living room. We eventually want to get a flat screen tv so I looked a furniture stores and thrift shops, goodwill and salvation army, but couldn't afford the furniture stores and couldn't find anything I liked at the other places. I bought this for $20 each. I decide on the design and had Byron help me with the work. I made the shelves so they are movable. I will add another piece across the top and we will get at new stand eventally. For now I am using an old stero, record player that really works for the tv stand. I painted it black to match the shelves.






Finished for now!
