The largest independent craft review site since 2007
Just a reminder. We are hosting two really big giveaways worth over $300 each! Make sure you get your entry in.
Cassie Fairy’s transformation of a vintage writing bureau into a glamorous cocktail cabinet is both innovative and inspiring. By repurposing a second-hand piece, she demonstrates how creativity and a bit of elbow grease can breathe new life into old furniture.
The makeover features a striking contrast between a deep indigo exterior and a metallic copper interior, evoking a Great Gatsby-esque elegance. The addition of mirrored backboards and a custom ‘BAR’ sign enhances the cabinet’s festive appeal, making it a standout piece for entertaining guests.?
Cassie’s step-by-step guide is thorough, covering everything from surface preparation to painting techniques. Her approach is accessible, requiring no power tools, which makes this project suitable for DIY enthusiasts of all skill levels.?
This upcycled cocktail cabinet not only serves as a functional bar but also as a conversation starter, showcasing the potential of sustainable design. For those interested in undertaking this project, Cassie provides detailed instructions and tips on her blog.?
