After and Before(since I can't figure out how to do this properly)




Where are my blog helpers when I need them? Well, a few months back I bought this armoire from Craigslist. My intention was to spray paint it and use it as a linen closet because I was tired of having towels in storage totes and sheets stuffed in plastic bags stuffed in my closet! When I took the before picture I didn't realize that the top 2 drawers weren't in. That's ok because you'll see them in the finished project. My husband helped ALOT!! I had to ask one of my favorite son-in-laws to help "push" it up the stairs. I only wish I had taken some pictures of that! We used Rustoleum's Strawflower(a buttery yellow) The hardware was sprayed with Rustoleum's Hammered Bronze. I used the bronze on the magazine holder and lamp base that I posted a while back. I really love how it turned out! I now have the sheets, towels and blankets in the drawers and behind the door(3 shelves). Thanks Fred and Chris!!
