Dramatic Library Built Ins on a BUDGET Using Thrifted Materials

Here at REISSUED, we love transforming thrifted finds (and sometimes literal trash) into one-of-a-kind statement pieces that make a space feel unique, homey, and beautifully vintage. Join us as we renovate my old house and take on new trash-to treasure home projects!
Let's tackle the next step in my moody, library living room makeover... the massive wall of built ins! But because this is REISSUED and we are on a budget, we are creating most of the build with thrifted pieces! See how we take some old kitchen cabinets, IKEA Hemnes bookcases, thrifted and salvaged trim, and handles from a trashed dresser and turn them into a cohesive and dark academia inspired library wall!
I'm loving my Reece frames in the tortoise shade from @paireyewear!
