it is always a challenge when you want to change the colour scheme of your home and old pieces of furniture stick out like sore thumbs. with some paint and creativity, you can bring you old furniture into the new scheme of things. here's what lisa did.

"i recently did my first ikea hack and i would like to share my idea. as i'm turning my whole house into a black and white scheme, my birch veneer billy didn't match anymore. i took the whole thing apart, and painted it. the outsides black and the shelves white (with black in the front).
