AFTER:
BEFORE:
This was an old stereo, with the insides torn out. I knocked the speaker part out and then primed the whole thing. The inside has all different kinds of wood in it and hadn't ever been finished. I wanted the inside finished, so I primed that as well. (See the end table in the background? It's next)
I painted the whole thing black.
Then I wanted to put bead board in the place where the speaker was. I waited to this last to make it easier to paint the inside of the cabinet.
Once we got the bead board installed, I painted it inside and out. Sanded the edges and screwed the lid back on. See the two holes in the front? I still need to get some kind of handles on. I haven't decided what I want yet. But other than that it is complete and I am really excited how it turned out. And I am excited to do more!
Wow, it looks great!
ReplyDeleteAmazing transformation! I have a similar old radio cabinet sitting in my basement. Your project just may inspire me to get off my duff and do something with it.
ReplyDeleteThat looks really good! What a great idea to add the beadboard. It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeletethat is great - i would have never guess what it was 'before' - great job!
