A not too "shabby" shelf...

For a while now I have been looking for just the right shelf for our bathroom. I wanted it to be used as a shelf and a towel hanger and all the ones I found look like ones you would hang your keys on....not ideal for a bathroom! So, I made one! We went to Home Depot ( aka my fav store) and purchased a few simple supplies. The wood, 2inch screws, 3 inch screws, hooks, and behr paint. Simple right?!
I sanded then did two coats on the wood in a rich creamy color (i got paint over the label and dont know what the exact shade is ...oops.)  It was so simple. I used the 2 inch screws to attach the pieces of wood. Then screwed in the hooks and screwed the shelf into the wall studs. I am crafty BUT my experience with power tools in limited...and by limited I mean like non existent :) But, I am so proud of myself! Isn't it cute!! And OF COURSE I had to add a little mason jar love:)  I did name my son Mason afterall ;)

It is perfect for our bathroom! I love it.
