Past Project: Craft closet makeover

Photobucket
I thrifted this big closet, put shelves and doors in it and painted it turquoise. I use it to store my art and craft supplies. Actually the before picture isn’t exactly correct; it was this weird color of salmon, the white is already a first ground layer of paint. I think I undertook this project about two years ago, but I am still really happy with how it turned out and I like having all my supplies together.

  2. Love it.

    I would REALLY need something for storing my craft supplies, but something smaller, because we don't have much space left over in our apartment. :(

    1. Well, this is actually the cupboard I have in my room at my parents place.. It wouldn't fit in my room here either. Which is too bad.

  3. It is awesome that you added your own doors and I have to say I am pretty partial to the color, one of my very favorites.

    Right now I have an art room where I keep all of my things in a desk/dresser/bookshelf and in various containers, but I definitely need to work on the organization aspects.

    1. I always feel pretty tough when I take on big wood projects, but I think it turned out well.. I would love to have an art room! perhaps one day, when I have my own house/appartment :)

  10. Aw this is so cute! I've actually been wanting to paint my armoire this color. Right now it houses both my art supplies and some jewelry as well. I might just have to take this on after seeing how lovely yours turned out:)
