The bonus room doesn't have a closet so I looked for months on Craigslist for an armoire that was deep enough for hangers and a rod and didn't cost a small fortune. (There are a lot of antique armoires for sale out there.)
Finally I'd settled on an armoire from IKEA that was reasonably priced, white and brand new. But then I found an armoire on craigslist that was solid wood and one third the price of the IKEA one. After sanding and painting the beds the last thing I wanted was another refinishing project, but it went pretty well and I'm really happy with it.
I was also pleased that the laundry hamper fit in the bottom half. I wasn't sure where I was going to hide that thing...
