The Knick Knack Paddy Wak Shelf

I have been wanting a shelf for my bedroom to put little odds and ends on for awhile. I didn’t want any thing to big, but not to small, so the other day I am in my wood shop just finishing up some projects, and I had some some left over pieces, so i rummaged through my scrap box to see if i had any thing big enough to use for the shelves, rather than have to to cut into another board. Well I got some what lucky, I had four pieces I could trim down to the size I wanted for the shelves, the other three would have to come out of a full board. Then I used Ipswich pine Mixed with Red Sedona for my stain and I decided to give my daughter a lesson in staining, . And it almost matches that ugly orange paint my girlfriend had me use for the bedroom. (next year I am repainting the room)
