Remember this hutch?
Remember that I turned it into a bar for our home office?
Well the bar is no more. Ok, to be quite honest the bar has been moved to an undisclosed location.
Problem number one, sharing a desk with my husband just didn't work out for me. I have a neat desk policy that he could not maintain. So in its spot went my own desk.
Problem 2, I committed to Vintage Revivals Fearlessly Finding Awesome Challenge to save my living room, which meant that my tv needed a new home.
and unfortunately a much smaller cabinet.
That's where my old bar come into play. I painted it yellow and decoupaged it in New York style post cards, articles, and such that I found on the internet.
This cabinet makes a 42" tv look like a 60" tv.
Heres a close up of my decoupage
What did I do with the top you might ask?
Well, its now sitting next to my fireplace in a semi new finish ( I added some yellow striped and distressed it a bit), but it still needs to be styled.
More saving my living room to come.
