American Girl Bathroom Vanity

I absolutely love how this vanity turned out! My doll needed a place to paint her nails and do her makeup, and this is the perfect thing!  I split this DIY project into two parts because I didn’t want anyone to get confused on the cut list.  This way it’s easier to follow two separate posts when creating your perfect American Girl Bathroom Vanity.

Attach all four legs.  I just nailed and glued them through the top.

 

Step 2:

Attach front skirt support.

 

Step 3 & 4:

Attach side skirt supports on both right and left sides.

 

Step 5:

You will attach the front skirt by nailing it to the front skirt support.

 

Step 6 & 7:

Attach the side skirts to the side skirt supports by nailing into place.

Step 8:

Use the Kreg Jig and create two pocket holes on the back of the vanity.  You will use two 1″ pocket hole screws to secure.

Step 9:

Glue the mirror onto the top piece of vanity.  I used super glue.

 

Come back for Part 2 of this project!  Every vanity needs a stool to sit on.
