Here's what I decided to do with the little gems....
First I stripped them with some harsh chemicals, and yes I took extra precautions since I'm preggo.
Then, I sanded them down as best as I could.
After a good buffering, I stained them both a dark walnut brown.
After staining, I painted them two different colors of blue, because I didn't want them to match completely. So this just makes them coordinate very well together.
After letting the paint dry, I distressed the edges and a few other areas to give it that rustic look.
I forgot to take pictures of the once green cabinet door, so here is the white one.
On one cabinet door I found so hooks from Hobby Lobby that were %50 off! So, they were $2.50 a piece after discount. I screwed this little babies in and voila!! A cute, rustic looking coat rack! (or whatever you want to hang on it...not necessarily coats) :)
So here she is, the little green door turned into fantastic rustic blue coat rack!
One the other cabinet door, I decided to get creative. I've seen all those expensive stencil type planks you can buy and I decided to do my own. I painted on this verse for my little Kipton and this will hang over the changing table. I thought the verse needed a little extra something, so I also painted a cross.
Here it is!
