A Vintage Children's Cupboard Makeover
This vintage cupboard went through quite a transformation.
The BEFORE is a solidly built children's cupboard...
it was in sad shape and in desperate need of a makeover.

I spent the day cooking and cleaning and got to work painting this piece.
I used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint® in Old White with grey on the inside of the door and drawers.
When the paint was dry I distressed the edges with 220 grit sandpaper and clear waxed the cupboard.
The handles are all antiqued pewter to match the inside color.
It is a great makeover and this cupboard can be usedto hang children's clothes or add shelves to the closet side to create a storage hutch.

Thanks Gail! I love neutrals and the grey and off white just work together :)
DeleteI have the same cupboard that I painted red and am currently using it in our bedroom that has a patriotic theme.
ReplyDeleteThat must be very pretty Cindy! Did you put shelves in it or are you using the hanger side for hanging?
