I’m super excited to share this repurpose with you. Originally, this piece was a vintage tv cabinet. I forgot to get pictures before my husband removed the beast of a tv from the inside, but I did snap a few pictures of it after he finished removing the innards. He is a saint for helping me on this! Here she is in her “mostly” before state.
Her before state is pretty sad, but I saw potential. Call me crazy! I loved her folding doors, her shape and I even loved the pulls. I’m sure many of you have seen numerous repurposed tv cabinets. But have you ever seen one repurposed into a true wine rack? Please meet ‘Ophelia’…
Ophelia will hold about 17 bottles of wine (don’t drink them all at once) and has a nice amount of storage on the left side. I love that you can close her off or open her up all the way. The doors fold back to the sides, perfectly. Ophelia is done in a custom color I call ‘fig’. The color is rich and luxurious and adds some glamour to a space. An upside to owning painted furniture is that your wood accessories/frames don’t get lost. Do you see how great those wood vases look paired with Ophelia? The art print is “Flowers for Lady” from Laurel Dawn’s shop. I love her work and her son’s nursery!
There were some ups and downs in the transformation process, which delayed me (quite a bit) while completing this project… but it was worth it. Don’t you think?
How about another before and after…
Ophelia is will be available for sale in my Etsy shop later tonight. Linking up at Miss Mustard Seed’s Furniture Feature Friday!
xoxo,
Meg
