Step-by-step instructions for crafting a piece of art into a useful storage space.

Step 1
If the cabinet has a mirrored front, carefully remove the glass (be sure to wear gloves, as you may have to break the glass).
Step 2
Lay your painting facedown on a flat surface, then center your cabinet facedown atop the painting. Use a pencil to mark the cabinet’s edges on the back of the frame.
Step 3
With the cabinet still resting on the painting, open it up to expose the back side of the door. Use a permanent marker to mark a dot in each corner of the door, making sure the dots align with the thickest part of the frame.
Step 4
Lift the cabinet off the painting and lay the cabinet facedown atop a piece of scrap wood. Drill a hole at each of the marked dots, then place the cabinet on top of the painting again, aligning it with the pencil marks on the back of the frame.
Step 5
Use a drill to drive 3/4-inch screws through the door holes into the frame.
Step 6
Mount the unit to the wall using the premade holes in the cabinet’s back. If holes don’t exist, drill one in each corner.
