I hate sanding turned legs, too, which is why I've enjoyed painting things instead of stripping them. :)<br /><br />I want to sign up for emails of you posts and I don't think you have a "follow by email" option yet. If I grovel and beg, will you add one? I don't want to miss anything. If I just can't find it, please tell me where to look!<br /><br />OH - what about the aqua on removable panels in the backs of the shelves? I've seen this done - they could be really thin plywood or even painted foam core or something...<br /><br />-Revi<br /><br /><br />-ReviRevihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03118538206780122093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10633837.post-60136900873735192892012-05-25T14:04:27.836-04:002012-05-25T14:04:27.836-04:00Oooh, treasures and projects galore!!

It's in my studio and my walls are about the same color too. I would probably paint just the inside of the cabinet and that way everything will pop without being too much. You sure found some fun treasures and a some awesome thrifty prices. I had to laugh at the sight of that chair laying curbside.

I don't think any of the things I can see on the shelf will get lost in the blue. They might even show up better.
