Diy~$7 Bookshelf

Are you LOVIN this as much as I am?? 

As seen on HGTV! 

Who would've thunk you could make a bookshelf out of a 

cement form and old shutters?

 I watched an episode where they took a concrete form and hung the circles on the wall as shelves....I LOVED it!

I wanted to make one using the leftover shutters from my Headboard project.

I purchased a concrete form at Home Depot for around $7. 
They have a selection of different heights and widths.

These are the 2 options I considered...but went with the stacked upright.

 I cut 4 tubes the width of my shutters.

The inside has a very waxy coat so if you plan to paint you will need to sand. 

I used a nylon brush sander.

I painted a few coats of white on the inside and black on the outside.

Ready to assemble with a few screws

Screw to the shutters and cut a piece of wood for a topper...
I was gonna to put some fancy crown molding around the top..
but I think at some point I might want to hang this on the wall horizontal.

I am entering this project over at the  

DIY PROJECT PARTY
