Help me build a corner pantry

Lights finally showed up today and the magnet switch should be here by Friday. The Radio Shack lights are on the left in both of the following pictures. Radio Shack lights definitely more bright and more yellow. Radio Shack lights are much larger. The case on the RS lights is clunky and loose (you can shake it and hear the light strip rattle around). The protection around the Amazon lights is like molded together. I bet if you cut the Amazon lights, each section would still remain water proof.







I'm having a heck of a time trying to get the chalkboard paint to go on smooth, even though I'm using a foam roller. I have a feeling some wet sanding is going to be in my future. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I tried doing some Youtube searches and found tips, but they vary too much to be helpful for me.




I was really hoping the glass would have come out better, already being very smooth and all. If I can't make it look great, I'm going to scrape it off. This last picture is only a first coat to test how it goes on.
