Home improvement

We got these shelves for free when some of our friends moved a couple of years ago. It was nice to have more storage, but it was rusting. And it has continued to rust since we had. I didn't do anything about it because it seemed like too big of a project.
One day, I was at Lowe's and asked one of their (super knowledgeable and super helpful) employees what the project would look like and she pointed me towards the spray paint aisle. Anyway, a couple of cans of Rust-oleum and a couple of hours later (plus drying time). It became this!

I love the black and I feel so hip about the whole thing. Ken and Ruth did all the work while I kept Jared busy, but I feel pretty good about myself too!

I'm impressed, those do look good! Wish I would have done that...

I think we had that same bathroom organizer while at Wymount and gave it to someone else. It was very handy. I like it in black.
