Free: bookcase (Southport PR8) Gifted I had two identical ones on offer. Both are solid pine but aged to a rather unfortunate colour, so I painted them to match my decor. I think they would make a great upcycling project if you don’t like the colour I chose (overtly olive). They’ve already been thoroughly treated with knotting and no stains have come through in the past 10 years. All my books are now on kindle so I really don’t need these. One has gone, but the other is still available due to a no-show despite being reminded. I would like it to go to a good home.
