It wasn't as dark as I hoped, but apparently the type of wood we used doesn't get as dark as other types. <br /><br />Good luck!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10801695854640612128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659542828252999514.post-40251047412039402112013-01-07T10:44:10.975-06:002013-01-07T10:44:10.975-06:00Thank you!

My husband cut wood to fit the inside and used screws (underneath) and wood glue to secure it. The piece that we removed was actually structural, so while we had intended for it to be open, that had to be changed. He cut that wood, secured it to the shelf with more wood glue & underneath screws. Once this was finished, we put that back, back on and used more screws to hold the whole thing in place. <br /><br />He did the bulk of the actual woodworking, so if this makes no sense, I'll have him do a little write up of how we did it. Hope this helps some though!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10801695854640612128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659542828252999514.post-14757217885562900882013-01-07T09:49:52.880-06:002013-01-07T09:49:52.880-06:00LOVE LOVE the color.

I would have never left it as it was though, since I thought the color & hardware were awful.

All we need is an ottoman to replace the coffee table, and we're going to make a sideboard to go behind the couch, but we're pretty much done with this room.
