When Nic and I got married almost 2 years ago {crazy}, we were blessed with getting furniture as a wedding gift from our families or inheriting hand-me-down furniture. One piece in particular was our entertainment center. My dad found it at a garage sale right before my sophomore year of college so it has apartment hopped with me for several years now. As is, it is very boxy and when Nic got his 65'' monstrosity of a t.v. for Christmas last year, it wasn't a possibility to put it in our living room. Even knocking out the center board the t.v. still wouldn't fit. So it found a home in our bedroom on the top of a little dresser {a little rickety and disconcerting}. Our bedroom quickly became a theatre room. haha
We got an idea to saw the entertainment center in half for our living room. The end of school brought more time for projects so we hauled it to my father-in-law's garage and after five minutes of sawing, we had ourselves a new entertainment center. Here is a before and after...
The before picture is actually from my college apartment that I lived in during my sophomore year. I didn't have a recent one. But, I loved how it turned out! Add a little chalkboard basket for storage and it is perfect!!
