Question

i dont want to buy an expensive armoire. It has to be small to fit in my room. store my make up....mirror... I am open to build one but dont know how. If you can find an inexpensive one thats great

Answer 1

Look in the thrift stores for an old "vanity" -- most look like a small student desk with a mirror behind.  Clean it up, and optionally paint it to your taste (use oil-based paint).

Answer 2

I see those old style makeup tables in the thrift stores all the time- you should look there first.

Answer 3

Remember that if you place your make-up spot in front of a window you will love the light you get on your face. It is marvelous. You could even consider an inexpensive computer desk or 'station' ...use double stick velcro on the edge of the desk top and sew the other half of the velcro to your table skirt. You can store stuff underneath and have a neat old style make-up table. Consider using a twin sheet (look of odd ones at discount places) for your make-up table shirt.
