Furniture {reincarnated} : Barnwood Bar

If you haven't ever ventured to Scotts's Antique Market here in Atlanta, I highly recommend it. I have found many things around my house there as well as come across some fantastic little "projects". One of the projects I found was a Barnwood Bar. The windows were all cracked and it was diiiiirrrrrty. It is very solid and VERY heavy. I grabbed it for $75 and LOVE it.

First, I chipped out the windows (carefully :) and decided it still needed a little something. I ran over to Home Depot and bought some chicken wire to try instead of glass. I cut it to size and with my trusty little staple gun, attached it to the inside of the door. Turned out nicely, huh?! This piece currently lives in our dining room but could also make a cool guest bathroom storage tower (minus the Maker's Mark of course).
