This was a very fun project to build. I pretty much followed the directions that were posted, but I used 1x6's instead of 1x4's because I wanted more storage space on the shelves. I also used 1/2" iron piping instead of 3/4" and am happy with how it turned out. Since the guest bathroom is gray, we didn't want to stain the wood and chose to do an easy to do "weathered" (directions below) look. Now all we need to do is replace the ugly shower curtain!
Built from Plan(s)
Estimated Cost
$40 (paint not included).
Estimated Time Investment
Day Project (6-9 Hours)
Finish Used
"Weathered" look – First, paint a gray undercoat of paint and let dry. Secondly, coat the piece with paraffin wax (especially the edges and corners). Next, paint a top coat of white and let dry. Lastly, scrape off the wax (with a razor blade), to your liking, to give it the "weathered" look.
