Maybe I'll Build You a Shelf or Something

 We went to Home Depot to buy some wood last night so that I could make a shelf for my bedroom. I chose a piece of oak initially but when it rang up for more than $50 I decided I would be ok with something a little less thick. That was just way too expensive!
 This is the starting product before sanding and staining...
 We sanded and stained the wood on Luke's ironing board. It was really fun! I have never made anything for my room before and it was really cool learning a new skill and being creative.



The finished product! I love the way the wood took the stain, so pretty! I can't wait to put it up in my room and make it my own.
