The unwanted piece

So, I haven't been doing as much painting the past little but because I just moved into a different house last weekend. I have an actual garage now and adequate space to paint and do what I do! I started painting a few pieces before I found my camera so I didn't get a before and after pictures.

 The TV console was so now what I was expecting when I saw the picture of it before I bought it. I thought it was real wood and it isn't. I think it used to be like a hutch or something because you could tell they cut (very badly) something off the top sides of it. But it was only $10 so I thought I could do something with it even though I just wanted to get rid of it as soon as I got it! Its not completely done, I need to finish painting a few spots and I need to figure out a top (im open to suggestions!). I was planning on keeping it but now I don't think it will match my décor.

The bookshelf is something that was given to me a few years ago and I spray painted it (Yikes!) and it looked horrible from the beginning. I just have been using it to store my décor in my spare bedroom. But I figured I would just repaint it before I moved it in the house so I would actually do it. I primed it but don't know what color to paint it??
