My Repurposed Cabinet





About 10 years ago, we purchased this beautiful mission style television cabinet. Last year we outgrew our cabinet when we acquired the BIG TV. For some reason, I just couldn't part with my beautiful cabinet. So, it sat in the corner of another room, gathering dust, rarely being admired... until tonight.

I repurposed our cabinet. I removed the back panel, installed a piece a sturdy plywood, glued on a mirror, installed shelves, added some lighting, and did a little painting with chalk-board paint... and we now have a beautiful liquor cabinet.

It turned out really nice. When our son gets a little older, I'll install a lock. I think in the bottom shelves I will install some wine bottle holders.

I'm so excited I was able to re-use my beautiful piece of furniture.

Now I have to have a party!!
