I have not built a project in a while but we needed shelves for our homeschool room.  I decided to pick something and build it so we started with this one!  I love working with my hubby doing these things and he still loves me after we're done ;) so I guess we did alright!

It looks great in our room holding our games and will add some books soon.  Thanks Ana for empowering me to go again in building!

Built from Plan(s)
Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
Finish Used
Minwax Red Mahogany Stain and Minwax Poly Wipe On Clear Satin finish
I would stain the boards before attaching next time. If you want a very smooth finish, use a regular polyurethane. I like the rustic feel of this finish on this wood. It looks great in our homeschool room!
