Antique Pine Wardrobe

What a joy to build. The materials for this piece came from at least 6 different places.

bulletThe side panels were surrounds for pocket doors in a mansion in Keokuk, IA.
bulletThe doors were bought off of ebay.
bulletThe face frame lumber from Kirksville, MO
bulletThe lumber for the drawer fronts from a church in Gibbs, MO (built in 1905)
bulletThe crown molding from a late 1800's home in Kirksville, MO
bulletThe hardware from the base of an 1800's stepback cabinet that was too far gone to restore.

Just goes to show it pays to salvage & recycle.
