recycling old wardrobe

Page 1 of 1
Hi
I have taken out the components of a huge built in wardrobe and want to reuse them out in the open. Only problem is that they are UGLY. cheap melamine in a lovely shade of nicotine stains which I think was once called almond.
BUt all parts are sound so its a shame to landfill them.
What can I do? Paint? Stick on wallpaper? Paint the wall behind to stand out? Or do i have to resort to putting up a curtain in front of them?
I will put up a wall on either side. But how to transform?
have the same question.
