Create Your Own Stunning Bookcase/Armoire

Hey everyone,

I did a tutiroal last Sunday for this stunning Bookcase/armoire and I never got around to doing the blog post for it. Sorry, I have been so busy.

I have had rather a lot of messages/emails asking when the post will be published. It’s safe to say it has been a very popular tutorial and I have seen so many of you make it already!

Thank you for your patience and you can find all the measurements below.
