We have been super busy this weekend creating a fun and creative area for our coffee and wine and liquor. We used to house a vintage Stanley china cabinet in this nook, but since we moved it (and refinished it) to the dining room we wanted to use this space in a fun and functional way. So, Rick got busy dismantling pallets, sanding lightly and staining with a variety of shades. He created this awesome pallet wall in the background.
We found some inspiration on Pinterest (of course) for a counter height table and used some 2x4's for legs, pallet boards for shelving, and 2x12's for the top (sandwiched together with glue and pocket screws). He stained the top and we chalk painted the bottom.
Next, came the lighting. The cables are running inside the wall. We have our wifi router hidden up behind the nook overhang thingy. We love the vintage Edison bulbs and thought a single and simple bulb would fit the space nicely.
The floating shelf (held in place with pocket screws) holds our spirits bottles and the t-mold strips are nailed under the shelf to hold our wine glasses.
The shot glass holder on the right wall is a vintage drink bottle holder and the pallet mug holder on the left wall we made ourselves. (thinking of adding small block letters on top that spell out "coffee")
And the finished piece...ta da!!!
