I love this piece, it came in two boxes one for the top half and the other for the bottom half, the items were packed well. The bottom half took a while to put together because of all its pieces but it was easy, top half went pretty quick. It looks very farmhousechic and I have it in my craft room. To add a little extra chic to it I added some battery operated remote control lights to it, if you are thinking about it, do it you won’t regret it!
