Our Wine Cellar: The End

Our wine cellar and storage room is finally complete!  My husband Jason spent many hours in this room working on getting it fixed up.  If you missed the first post about how this room looked before and to see the whole process, you'll want to head over here to view it.  I hope you enjoy looking at how we finished this room.

Here are some pictures of what the room looked like before.















Here are the finished wine shelves and the cabinet doors.











The cabinets store things we wish to keep out of view in the room, like extra wine glasses and Tupperware.







The left side of the wine shelves hold all of our white wines.

Here is a detailed picture of how the neck of the wine is held secure on the shelf.

The right side of the shelves hold all of the red wines.

This is a close-up of the puck lights Jason installed on the wine shelves.

Jason installed laminate flooring in this room.  This wasn't our first choice in flooring, but the price was right.  He painted the floor with waterproofing paint and then covered the entire surface with a below grade vapor barrier to protect the flooring from any moisture that should leak up.

We purchased the rug from Pier One this past summer and really love it!

We reused the same shelves that were in the room but freshened them up with some gray paint.

These shelves hold the kitchen items I do not use everyday and don't have room for in my tiny kitchen.

We were interested in some type of light fixture to hang from the ceiling but didn't want to have to wire anything in the ceiling because of the exposed floor joists.  I thought that a lantern with a candle would provide a little light and some ambiance but would not be too harsh.  We checked a couple of TJ Maxx stores in our city and finally found one that we liked.  We hung it from rope and tied it to the floor joist.

I bought the bistro table at a rummage sale before Jason and I were even married.  It works perfectly in the room and provides a little seating and a surface to set wine glasses down.

The display area functions as a place to open a bottle of wine and also as a place to keep our wine books.

Just for fun, here are a few pictures of the room at night.

This room was a fun transformation from start to finish.  We didn't spend a large amount of money but got a space that we love and hope will be a selling point should we sell our home in the future.  I hope you enjoyed viewing the changes we made as much as we enjoyed sharing it with you!
