Before and After-Buffet to Entertainment Center

 Allyson and Gayle's Craigslist find.
 They had the large entertainment center that we had before flat panel tvs became so popular. They found this beautiful piece for a great price and brought it to me. 

I used my fav, Kona stain by Rustoleum. And for all you DIYers out there I used Rustoleum polyurethane and LOVED it! It is cloudy when you apply it but dries clear. I liked it because you could see where you were applying. And it dries fast!! LOVE LOVE LOVE


Since they will be using this as an entertainment center, we needed a place to hide the electronics. 

SO I took the drawer apart, attached the bottom of the drawer on the inside to create a shelf and put hinges on the drawer face so they have a great hiding place. I don't love working with hinges because they always seem to end up being a pain in my butt! So thanks to my sister Tiffanie and her hubby Micheal for their help in figuring that out!! 


P.S. the hinges are for a kitchen cabinet door.
