Weekend shift to repurposing a ladder into a shelf

This weekend brings a shift to painting furniture of sorts. I’m creating a shelf with an old wooden ladder and four boards for my antique shop. The shelves will be level when it’s finished. 😊

Painted the base coat last night and used tiny plastic triangles to support the wet side of the boards while finishing the opposite side. Those triangles are simple but brilliant.

Next, I’ll add subtle shades of pink, yellow, sage, and blue to individual boards, then sand each for a distressed effect.

The goal is to complement the painted shutters I’ll also use in the shop beside the shelf.

I’ll post progress photos tomorrow.
Until then, xoxo
