We took two bookcases that Drake had in his room since he was little and decided to turn them into our media credenza.  Here is what they looked like before...(notice the lovely red wall paper behind it in the old house...)
We taped the inside of each bookcase.  Originally, we were going to leave the inside backboard wood and paint the rest white.Here is what the finished product looked like.  The paint bled through the painters tape and it didn't look as neat and modern as we thought.  So we decide to paint the whole thing white.
