A neighbour was giving away this home made "blanket chest" the lid lifted up to a 6" deep compartment with a lower compartment having a fake draw front. After debating on how to transform it I cut off the legs & attached them to one side, stood the unit up vertical & turned it into a jelly cupboard with the lid becoming the front door & the fake draw front becoming a side door. Made & attached the top to the cabinet. A little chalk paint & project done in a weekend of free time.
