French Chest Converted to Dress Up Armoire........

 One of our awesome repeat clients, texted me
a picture of a chest converted into a dress up armoire.
I told her I've done one like that before like 
3 years ago and showed it to her.  (You can view it in 
one of my previous post from the year 2013.)
She said we where awesome and asked if we had 
any chests in our inventory.
So I showed her 3 I had and she picked this one.
She wanted it Simply White by Ben Moore with
silver handles.  Then a wood closet rod to match it.
This is it in one whole picture....

Here is the before...


the feet where chipped off and missing...


John got to work on the building process...


added a wood back since the other was 
that thick cardboard...


stripped it all down....


added wood sides and bottom....


repaired the feet and reshaped them...


John does such an awesome job....




can't even tell it was chipped off....
stone hard structure now will not chip off like the wood did....
I primed it then painted it all white....



primed and painted the wood rod and wood holders....


John installed it with the right measurements
so the hangers can be removed without
a problem...





stripped, primed, painted, and sealed the hardware....




our smooth flat thin finish....







It is so super cute!  Her little girl is going to love it!
Thank you Brooke for thinking of us!
