Thrift Upcycle Inspired by Crate & Barrel

Months ago, I thrifted a circular bamboo shelf from a local thrift store and immediately thought it looked pretty familiar. I then remembered a classic Crate & Barrel item (pictured below) that I have had pinned on my personal Pinterest board that I thought I could recreate.

Lastly, I coated it in a layer of sand coloured paint to match my personal decor and voila!!
