Wine Please

February 1st, 2010 · 3 Comments · Before & After

After selling some humungo speakers on Craig’s List we found the wall where they had previously resided, well, a little empty. We didn’t want to spend too much on a replacement piece so we headed down to our local Goodwill.

We came home with a maroon wine bottle/wet bar thing. Matt and I were so excited. Blame it on watching too many episodes of Mad Men but hurrah, we now were proud owners of a wet bar!

Fancy huh? I broke out the hand sander that Matt bought me while I was refinishing our pew. That puppy sanded off those grape vines in about 4 seconds. I then used the primer and paint that we had left over from painting our front door (score for free!).

I added a $4 new handle and she is looking pretty spiffy. Stop on over for a cocktail sometime!

    And it looks like it wouldn’t be too tuff to another wine shelf above the one that is already there, in case the collection grows!

    This is funny. I have a cabinet very similar to yours that I’m getting ready to paint black! It looks great!

    I’m very fearful of what my lie in store if you get more free time.
