This is my son's garage space that he wanted to finish so that it would serve two purposes:
1. A place to hang out with friends, watch sporting events and drink a few beverages.
2. Create storage space for tools, paint cans etc. and have a general workspace area for those odd jobs that come with being a homeowner.
Here is the before shot to show you how bare it was except for a very rugged shelf and a laundry tub. The floors were already completed with ceramic tiles when he purchased the house.
The first task was to touch up the sheetrock with plaster and paint it, he chose a gray paint for the top portion and black for the bottom. Next was to create an outline for the shape and size that he could build a Bar. The framing was done with 2 x 4 boards and 3.5 " galvanized nails, it was not secured to the floor because once it was built the weight of it would anchor it.
Have a question about this project?
Can you adopt me?
@Deb Kritzer I'm missed your comment earlier but thanks so much for brightening my day today! I was told that a few days ago by a neighbor who would love for me to come and give her decorating ideas for her house! I really have too many for my house....lol! But I have to give a lot of the credit to my husband he has the skills to make the idea into reality!
Where did he get the magnetic door handle kits??? Looks good!!!!!!!!!
You can purchase them through Amazon. Thanks @Mis14036846
You stated, "The front of the bar was covered in with the same sheeting as the accent wall" but I did not find where you said what sheeting was used on the accent wall. I really like the look and wondered what type of sheeting was used for the accent wall and the front of the bar. Thanks!
I saw the response to Wandamurline referred to barnboard panel. Is that what was used on the wall and bar front?
Thanks
This is an abbreviated post that Hometalk combined from the two parts I posted with more details and more photos. It's explained at the top of this post where to find more details.. To answer your question, yes the paneling as shared in the materials list is faux hardwood paneling sold in 4 x 8 ft. Sheets. Thanks, it's sold at most Hardware stores in various shades.
