How to Make a Hall Tree
Home Interior
Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today,
To join this chest with this door…
And this chest and this door,
To have and to hold your keys, your hat, your jacket.
Forever and always…

Be sure to check out how I painted 6 chairs in one afternoon!

Archiveso pretty!
I love your hall tree and want to attempt to make one this summer as it's a project I've not tried yet! Is there a link to more specifics as to HOW you attached the table to the door? I'm a self-taught gal, and much of it is NEW to me! But I love, love, love your work! What are you selling this piece for in your new storefront? It's gorgeous, girl! Thanks for sharing! So happy to be following and learning from you! Thanks for the inspiration.
Love the transformation! Are there any instructions on how to attach the chest to the door? I am a DIYer myself and would like to try this cute idea.
Thanks!
Fantastic Idea!
Great job!
Very clever. I never would have thought of marrying these two for this purpose. Is the chest you painted white w/shuttered doors an Erhan Allen piece from long ago?
I thought the same thing. I have the full Ethan Allen hutch that matches that piece in the picture in my home.
Love this!
This is awesome Deb! I love your clever ways:) Pinning:)
Oh how cute!!! Love them both, would have a difficult time choosing one. ADORABLE!!!
These are amazing, I really love the idea. Unfortunately my hall is really narrow, just a corridor really, but thanks for the inspiration !
With this "pin" I thee wed.

Beautiful. Love it.
I just did this with an old door and old piano bench! The only expense was a gallon of paint and hooks! :-)
Beautiful! I have the perfect chest for this project…now to find a door! Thank you for sharing.
Good luck finding the door :)
Wow, love them both! Jus goes to show how paint will marry pretty much any mismatched pieces. Thank you for the inspiration! I have the door, just need to find the chest. Pinning this to my repurposed board and creative with wood board.
Thanks Lucy!
Wow! These are SO BEAUTIFUL! I featured this on my blog today as a favorite from my group pinterest board! http://www.interiorfun.com/2014/01/we-love-friday-favs-2.html
Thanks Lindze!
LOVE this! Could you tell me the color of the hall tree?
How did you attach the two? Did you paint each individually first?
Also - would you sector to the wall as well, once completed?
Did you ever get an answer to your question?
What is your question? Thanks, Debbie
My ? Is how does one attach the table dresser whatever is being used to the door. I saw your comment about attaching the door to the wall, good to know wouldn't have thought of that!
I used screws to attach the two pieces. I painted the piece after it was put together. Depending on the height of the dresser that you attach to the piece, you will have to secure to the wall, due to the weight of the door. Always attach tall furniture to the wall.
Thanks,
Debbie
Oooh Deb!!! That hall tree rocks!!! We are moving from and old 1842 one om school house converted, to an amazing 1870 mansion [well...to US it's a mansion! LOL] and there is a bit as you come into the back thru the huge Florida room where this would look awesome in!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!! Off to look at the rest of your blog!!!
Love your idea of making a Hall tree. Using a door and a chest drawer, then turning it in one furniture. You can write on the door some notices. Such a convenient and friendly way. Many thanks
This is wonderful piece! I love working with doors
