Record/radio Cabinet Made Into...

Jennifer Pearish-Haas
by Jennifer Pearish-Haas
I came across this old record player/radio at an auction. No one wanted it and I knew right away I could make it into something else.
Here is the before. I removed the door and took all "guts" out. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of that. I cleaned, sanded, and primed the entire piece inside and out.
I cut out and sanded down all the racks, painted, and put it all together and it's now a wine rack.
I left the radio intact so that if the buyer chose they could add a modern antennae and speaker so they could play the radio again.

      Thank you Mary! And I did have a couple people try and buy just the radio from me but I didn't want to separate them. I haven't been in contact with the lady that bought it but she was gifting it to an avid music fan so I'm hoping he made it functional again.
