My own $5.00 treasure!

11 years ago

Yesterday Dd and I drove past a Moving Sale sign fastened with black electrical tape to a vintage bamboo shelf. Went inside, and asked "How much for the shelf outside?". Five dollars. It needs some work- the oak shelves need to be sanded down and re-finished. I don't think I'll do anything to the bamboo but clean it up. It's very solid and pretty darn cute! Whoot!

Love that. I even bet the oak looks interesting once it's sanded. Good work!
