Wardrobe Painting Project


This post will be a short one. I wanted to quickly share another furniture project that we did as part of our master bedroom renovation. 


This wardrobe was another one of the furniture pieces that came with the house when we purchased it. This piece also serves as a divider between our vanity area and bed area of the master bedroom. It is quite large and is extremely heavy. That being said, one of our first decisions for this project was to put it on wheels! That way I could move it to clean. Moving it would also make it easier for bringing furniture into and out of the bedroom. Great idea right?! We had our carpenter attach the wheels and put a "skirt" on the bottom so you can't see the wheels. 


From there we sanded, puttied, and painted it from top to bottom. Nick also went out and picked up some new hinges since the old ones had paint on them. I was so proud of him when I saw they were brass looking hinges! I would like to assume it was a design decision on his part rather than that being all the store had to offer. 


Now the wardrobe is finished and rolled back to its spot looking nice and fresh with the white paint. Here are the before and after photos of the wardrobe!

  1. Hi, nice work! Curious about the floors under the after photo... What are they and did you purchase locally?

    1. Hi Chandra!
      Thanks for reading :) The floors that we used in our master bedroom reno are porcelain wood looking tiles that we purchased at Pinder Tile. I am pretty sure the color is ash. They turned out great and look just like driftwood (which is the look we were going for). Check back for my full master bedroom reno post there will be better pictures of the tile.
