Baby’s Wardrobe
A brand-new wardrobe for baby can cost more than a full-sized adult one, and it can often be hard to find one which will match the color scheme of your nursery. If you're looking for a more personalized, decorative option, baby furniture can be picked up for next to nothing at garage sales or knick-knacks shops. It's quick and easy to recycle furniture to bring it in line with your decorating ideas using spray paint.

Clean the wardrobe to remove any surface dust and grease, and remove the handles. Sand any peeling or flaking paint until the surface is smooth. Use a tack cloth to remove the sanding dust and allow to dry before painting. Make sure your working area is well-ventilated and masked with newspaper or a dust sheet.
Apply an all-over coat of White Primer. When dry, follow with a coat of Satin White. Leave to dry.
Apply lengths of masking tape in horizontal rows across the recessed part of the door panels. Leave a gap the width of the tape between each strip. Repeat with vertical rows so you have a checker effect. Press the tape down firmly to prevent colour bleed. Use newspaper to protect the surrounding area.
Spray an even, thin coat of Satin Pastel Green over the masked panels. Remove the tape while the paint is still sticky to reveal your design.
Spray the handles with Gloss Orange, and refit when dry.
Note: Always follow usage instructions on the reverse of Valspar spray paint cans.
