Girly Dress Up Armoire


The next piece for my daughters room was a girly chic dress up armoire. I searched pinterest and combine a few projects that I saw on there to create Presley's dress up armoire. Here are the 2 photos that inspired me:
 
Items Needed:
Armoire/Entertainment Center
Modge Podge
Exacto Knife
Paper (Design of your choice)
Extendable Shower Curtrain
 
I loved the idea of having a damask design incorporated in the furniture and I loved the idea of having a dress up rack. With these ideas in mind I found an old entertainment center that was only $30 and full of endless possibilities. Here is the armoire before.

 
Here is the armoire after it was painted a "worn" black.
 
 
I found some cute black and white damask wrapping paper from Target cut it with an exacto knife to the exact dimensions for the back of the armoire. Spread Modge Podge all over and applied the paper. Make sure you take a credit card or something to go over the paper to remove all wrinkles. After the paper background was applied to the inside of the armoire I took an extendable shower curtain and placed it in the armoire. Last step was to find some cute and girly pettiskirts and hung them and voila you have an adorable girly dress up armoire.
