Library Book Cart
I built this book shelf for my daughter.
I made both the top and the bottom shelves an angled.
I used a finishing nail punch to emboss the name.
I mixed 3 different color stains to match the other furniture.
Used 2" caster wheels from Home Depot.

So nice!
This is so pretty, I love the name in it! How wonderful. When you mix your stains, how do you know how much of each? Is is just a trial and error type of thing?

Hi tommirhea,
Thank you for your nice comment!
Mixing stains is just a trial and error. Pour into empty yogurt cup and mix with form brush. I like rustic looks, so, I don't care if color is not even ;-)
Have a nice weekend,
Sunny

Thanks
Okay, thanks. I think I will try it on the desk I am going to make. I don't always love the color of stains, but never thought I could just dump different ones in to make my own :) I like rustic looks as well, makes it more unique.
