re-purposing the baby gate



Nooooooooo! good bye baby gate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was the piece of DIY furniture that made blueantstudio famous! see the part 2 here (part one is missing the pics.. : (

So Isabella, now 3, knows her way around the stairs even while carrying large amounts of stuffed animals in one hand. So baby gate had to go... but I didn't want it to become landfill, so my only solution was to re-use it as a AC unit cover.

I think it came out really nice...
