Making a Thrifted Entertainment Center into a Coffee Bar

[@PeaceandHope1980]

Hi Chris and Yvonne great idea recreating the entertainment center into a coffee bar thanks for sharing.Prayers Blessings to you Chris and both of your families Hugs Mildred!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you Mildred

[@kedeglow2743]

Thank you for respecting your husband enough to ask him,...instead of just blithely assuming he'd do it if you bought it and brought it home! Another beautiful job!

[@rhondalong5801]

I never would have thought that this was once an entertainment center. It is beautiful! 🤩

[@judywilliamson2068]

I had a solid oak entertainment center. I put pegboard in the back, hung all my scissors, cutting utensils, and patterns. Then I bought a piece of oak faced plywood cut it and stained it to match.Used a piano hinge and drop leg to make a wonderful drop sewing table. My sewing machine fits snugly inside, the table lifts up, I can close the doors and hide all my clutter and I still have my nice looking piece of furniture. This was 10 years ago and it’s still such a beautiful piece of furniture but lately I have been giving it the evil eye thinking that I might just want to chalk paint it! LOL

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. love that. And also love the giving it the eye thing😉

[@droberts7859]

Wonderful! I have an old inherited Asian carved bar that I would love to make into a coffee bar! You are always inspiring, in craft and in your lovely Christian spirit!

[@joyshaner3642]

I am just at the beginning of this video and I stopped it to give appreciation to you, Yvonne,, for respecting your husband and giving him consideration. I am sure that behavior is reciprocated. It is beautiful . Now, continuing on with the video!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you. Respect is everything 💕

[@lyndawise678]

Your work is top drawer. Any furniture store would be proud to display your work.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for your very kind compliment

[@PAULAHERRELL]

Beautiful

[@ReenTheBean]

I am SO glad you didn't leave the bead board black! I renovated a 70's high boy dresser into a tv/entertainment center. I used bead board for the back after removing the top three drawers. It was placed on an angle in my familyroom and as nice as it turned out it always looked like there was a black hole in that corner of the room. I have since removed that top part of the piece and it looks so much nicer in that corner now! I love the light you added to your coffee bar! Nice touch!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that

[@suescott4418]

Gorgeous and love the light fixture just beautiful

[@bethwishitwereviolet5938]

What a beautiful transformation! Chris is so talented. You are too sweet friend! So thankful for you both. 💕

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you Beth

[@lauraschreuders2799]

Chris, what creative vision you had for that entertainment center! You are such a fine craftsman.

[@eunicenield9631]

I love that you guys distress the furniture lightly and not take big chunks of paint out of the wood. It came out beautiful.

[@danicauzelac4688]

Omg, omg is so nice 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@donnawilkes8954]

[@adorablerepurposals6745]

It is gorgeous! The cups were the perfect touch. You’re blessed to have each other.

[@lucylu2274]

Yvonne, I took you at your word and tried your favorite black Walmart paint today. My husband built a large farmhouse shelving unit for me and I used that paint on it. It did an awesome job!! The coverage on that raw wood was so surprising. I am putting on a second cost but honestly it really doesn't need two coats. Thanks so much for the recommendation! ❤

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. thank you for sharing that with me

[@tammywoods9952]

Beautiful transformation. I have a armoire in my barn that I want to make into a coffee bar. I love the light fixture. Thanks for the inspiration ❤️❤️❤️

I found a piece of an entertainment centre, rounded on top 2 glass doors..I see the end product..but man does it need alot of work. Thanks for inspiration...I just need a little help from Marc..But I cannot wait to see it completed. You guys did an amazing furniture flip, and the light...I'm so impressed!!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. have fun. Thank you for sharing

[@GrandmaBudgets]

What a blessing Chris is for you. It’s so awesome that he is so talented and willing to do all this with you. I love how this coffee bar turned out. Beautiful! Yvonne, you are awesome! I watch every one of your videos. So does my sister. I love your channel.

Great job! I love how you two see past the outdated look and truly give a piece of furniture a new life. Blessings from Wisconsin

[@kk-bootsie]

It turned out so beautiful! Well done! I feel surprised that you did not line the drawers with your black & white floral. The light fixture with the Edison bulb & the new pulls really added to this gorgeous paint job! You two ROCK!!! An inspiration! Thank you!

[@GingerChickRehab]

The drawers were perfect, like they never have been used. So I actually left them beautifully clean 💖
