Baroque inspired shelf

Its been quite long since the last post. I have worked on a few things simultaneously and hopefully once I have a little more time at hand, I will be posting them quite often *fingers crossed*.

As you must already know from my initial posts, I am obsessed with the Baroque period. Too many details that heights your senses. I am hoping this piece does the same for you. Hope I am able you inspire you in some way.


Shall we begin..

Items required:
1. Any steel shelf. (Usually found in kitchenware stores. In Dubai, you can find this in Gift Village in Deira and also in Satwa)
2. Black & Gold spray paint. (These can be found in building materials stores)


Steps:


1. Add tape to the areas that you want to add contrast colors to.




2. Spray paint the overall shelf with the color you would like most coverage off. I sprayed it with Black since I was going for Black Gold theme.  



This is how it looks covered in paint.










3. Let the paint dry completely before removing the tape.



4. For the final touch, I have added the Gold paint to complete my theme. 




And Voila! 











There are so many ways you can personalize your own shelf. I currently use mine as shelf for beauty products, perfumes etc.
