A nice place for the living room "stuff"

I followed the plans exactly except I made the legs 5 inches taller to allow more room on the bottom shelf. this was my first project with doors and drawers and my third big project after building a chicken coop and the Ana White triple pedestal table. I couldn't find 2x2s so I stripped 2x4s (the dimensions aren't exactly the same but close enough). Took me longer to build than it would most people because I'm not that experienced.

Built from Plan(s)
Estimated Cost
About $130 for everything.
Estimated Time Investment
Week Long Project (20 Hours or More)
Finish Used
Thalo green satin latex by Valspar. Then I watered down some black latex and wiped it on with a crumpled paper towel and wiped it off with another crumpled paper towel. I had some tintable glaze but I didn't like it as much as my watered-down paint method.
