Good Luck ☘️And Have Fun!
The wood is beautiful. I have one like it. It has a slight white wash. I would sand this down so you have clean wood, then give it a slight white wash. Then you can place bottoms in the base of it and use baskets for storage.
If you have the drawers keep the bottom two and use the upper ones as open shelving. You might even consider removing the top shelf. i would sand well and stain the outer cabinet and shelves the inside back wall could be in a white or off-white that matches the stain.
I used this resource to change a chest of drawers that I found at goodwill into a changing table. This was a great score for me!
