A Little Painting...

I was rather pleased with how these turned out, so I decided to post a few pictures of the bookends that I hand-painted for a good friend of mine for Christmas. I'm not really a painter, but when I bought them they were kind of a bland off-white, and I thought it'd be fun to splash some color on there! Here is the finished product:



In the process, I found out that the painting was actually really nice therapy. I'm keeping my eye out now for more fun little projects like this.

  3. I wish I had more of a use for bookends, but "unfortunately" my shelves are always very packed.

  4. My shelves are packed, too. I wish I had the money to buy just one more bookshelf, because my wall has enough room for three.

  5. You should try and save up for one. My dad said that this winter he would really try to get the rest of my shelves done, which I am in dire need of. The ones I have are starting to overflow.
