Classic Oak Bookcase
If this bookcase looks familiar, there's a good reason - it's essentially the same as the built-in bookcases we featured in "Fireside Retreat Part 2".

But in order to convert it into a freestanding unit, we've added a few distinctive details. Since the sides of this bookcase are visible, that's where you'll notice the biggest differences. We applied a solid-wood frame to each side. The trim strips are also different. Notice how the edging, cove molding, and base molding all wrap around the sides of the case.
