old entertainment center rescued!!!

I found this old UGLY entertainment and knew that I could make it so much better! Anything is better than the red, crackle paint that covered this thing, RIGHT?! 


A coat of primer is a must before doing ANYTHING! I am using chalk paint for this piece so it does not need primer but I wanted to make sure the red was covered! After much contemplating about what to do with this piece, I have decided to make this into a ONE OF KIND BAR! WHAT??!!  That's right, this is gonna make a FABULOUS bar! 


Annie Sloan chalk paint at its best, yet again!!  Old White covered the outside with Duck Egg on the inside.  I'm gonna add a beadboard backing to make it look even better!  

So here is the final product!  The beadboard has been added, painted Duck Egg, then glazed with Valspar's Antiquing Glaze in black.  It looks phenomenal! I bought the "Wine Tasting" sign at Bed Bath and Beyond and it is PERFECT for this! 


I also added 2 wine glass racks the to middle section and it can hold up to 24 wine glasses!  A small puck LED light also adds a cool little touch! 


You can really see the black glaze on the beadboard.  It looks so cool, giving it an awesome antiqued look!  It definitely makes a difference. 

There is plenty of storage in this piece for ALL your bar essentials!
