A friend of Gail’s found this kid-sized armoire in a pile of furniture on the side of the road. Knowing that Gail (of My Repurposed Life) is a genius at refabbing old furniture, the friend brought the whole pile to her. I’m pretty amazed by what she did with the armoire.
Inspired by another armoire transformation she’d seen on a home improvement show, Gail decided to turn hers into a children’s art desk! She made some repairs and did a little chopping and sawing to get the piece just right. The addition of a drop down table really put things in motion. Gail gave the cabinet a fresh coat of paint (including chalkboard paint inside the doors), new hardware, and stocked it with art supplies. What a fun place for kids to create!
You’ve got to check out how Gail made this kid-friendly-craft armoire at My Repurposed Life.

Not sure how to report this in right area so please delete if needed, I clicked thru from email & tonight it is the 2nd time it’s happened that I’m getting a “meet girls” popup ad, 1st time was Friday I think…
Love all the posts though just not that
Incredible idea! My husband loves to do such projects at home! I will show him this article and I am sure that he will converted our old cabinet into something like this. Thank you for sharing!
