    First, let me say that it is very difficult to photograph a BLACK piece with a MIRROR. This is a jewelry armoire that I made from scratch for my daughter. It was her Christmas present last year. This is a picture of it in her room. I purposely made it open from left to right so that she could open it and get a better look at herself in the full length mirror.

    Jewelry Armoire

    DIY jewelry armoire
    IM000772This picture was taken with the armoire laying down in my garage. The mirror reflects the rafters above. I used mostly new materials in this project. (which is highly unusual for me) I used fluting and bulls eyes to frame a beveled full length mirror.

    Add shelves

    IM000791I made a typical "box", attaching a piece of luan to the back of the box. Then I used spray adhesive to adhere a piece of velvety material. This little shelf is a "fixed" shelf in the middle of the armoire. I purchased some little divided trays (at our local flea market) and cut them to fit this shelf. You can see that I attached the door with a piano hinge.

    IM000793This is a closeup of the fixed shelf and divider trays. In this picture, I only have one tray in place, but I used them all the way across.

    Add peg hooks for necklaces

    IM000792In this picture you can see the top of the armoire. I used shaker pegs (for chunky necklaces) and some shoulder brackets (for smaller chains).

The fixed shelf is in the middle, and the two lower shelves are adjustable to fit her needs. I think this may be the only project I've ever made from scratch. Will I ever make another one??? Nope! She really likes it, and I'm glad I did it, but I am NOT a cabinet maker by trade.
